Iurii Trifonov (1925-81) has become well known in the West as a writer of Soviet urban life. This study, first published in 1993, concentrates on his exploration of major events in Russian history (such as the assassination of Tsar Alexander II and the Russian Civil War) and their implications and consequences for his time. David Gillespie traces this interest through all of Trifonov's writings, from his earliest, Stalin prize-winning period to the self-consciously modernist later works, in which Trifonov emphasizes the interconnectedness of human life and history, with the individual as 'the nerve' of history; linking epochs, places, civilizations. Trifonov discerns patterns and analogies in history, and develops a language of hints and allusions with which to combat the repressive censorship of his time.

BREAK YOUR ADDICTION TO SUGAR IN 2020 ___________David Gillespie was 6 stone overweight, lethargic and desperate to lose weight fast, but he'd failed every diet out there. Until he cut out sugar. Then he immediately started to lose weight - and kept it off. Now slim and with new reserves of energy, David set out to investigate the connection between sugar, our soaring obesity rates and some of the more worrying diseases of the twenty-first century. He discovered that it's not our fault we're fat: - Sugar was once such a rare resource that we haven't developed an off-switch, and we can keep eating sugar without feeling full.- In the space of 150 years, we have gone from eating no added sugar to more than 2 pounds a week.- Eating that much sugar, you would need to run 4.5 miles every day of your life to not put on weight.- Food manufacturers exploit our sugar addiction by lacing it through 'non-sweet' products like bread, sauces and cereals.In Sweet Poison, David Gillespie exposes one of the great health menaces of our time and offers a wealth of practical information on how to quit sugar.

In this first and only comprehensive study of cinema’s various engagements of Russian literature focusing on the large period 1895-2015, The History of Russian Literature on Film highlights the ways these adaptations emerged from and continue to shape the social, artistic, and commercial aspects of film history.

''Diets and exercise won''t help us lose weight. Vitamins and minerals are a waste of money and sometimes downright dangerous. Sugar makes us fat and sick. And polyunsaturated fat gives us cancer and works with sugar to give us heart disease. This book exists because I desperately hope that with a little knowledge we can all vote with out feet and change the rules of the game before the game kills us.''For decades we''ve been told to eat less, exercise more, eat less saturated fat, eat more polyunsaturated oils, and take vitamin and omega-3 fatty acid supplements. For decades this is what we''ve done, but the rates of obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia and cancer have never been higher.The real culprits, David Gillespie tells us, are sugar and polyunsaturated oils. Analysing the latest scientific evidence, he shows us why the outlines a plan to avoid them both without missing out or ''dieting''. Gillespie exposes the powerful role the multibillion-dollar food, health and diet industries have played in promoting the health messages we follow – or feel guilty about not following.Discovering the truth about diets, exercise, supplements and processed food is your first step towards improved health, greater happiness and a longer life for you and your family.''Gillespie is an informed and entertaining writer who makes his subject fascinating, and inspires with his passion and logic.''G MAGAZINE

The Brown Side of Autism: Our Journey Through Color, Culture, and ClarityThis autobiography is more than just a story—it's a lived experience told through the lens of identity, resilience, and truth. The Brown Side of Autism takes readers inside the life of a young Black man navigating the world on the autism spectrum, where culture and neurodiversity intersect in ways that are often overlooked.From early childhood challenges—like delayed speech, sensory struggles, and feeling misunderstood—to moments of growth, faith, and self-discovery, this book paints an honest picture of what it means to grow up different in a world that doesn't always understand you. It highlights not only the obstacles, but also the strengths, creativity, and perspective that autism can bring.Through personal stories, reflections, and powerful insights, this journey explores themes of identity, mental health, relationships, and purpose. It also sheds light on the unique experiences of being both autistic and a person of color—breaking stereotypes and giving a voice to those who are often unheard.Raw, inspiring, and deeply personal, The Brown Side of Autism is a story of growth, faith, and finding clarity in who you are—unapologetically.
