The extraordinarily rich, dark, panoramic tale of an orphaned boy's quest for truth and then for vengeance as war rages across 17th-century Europe.
A beautiful and profound narrative poem set in a magic realist version of the West Country by musician and writer PJ Harvey. Nine-year-old Ira-Abel Rawles lives on Hook Farm in the village of UNDERWHELEM. Next to the farm is Gore Woods, Ira’s sanctuary, overseen by Orlam, the all-seeing lamb’s eyeball who is Ira-Abel’s guardian and protector. Here, drawing on the rituals, children’s songs, chants, and superstitions of the rural West Country of England, Ira-Abel creates the twin realm through which she can make sense of an increasingly confusing and frightening world. Orlam follows Ira and the inhabitants of UNDERWHELEM month by month through the last year of her childhood innocence. The result is a poem-sequence of light and shadow—suffused with hints of violence, sexual confusion and perversion, the oppression of family, but also ecstatic moments in sunlit clearings, song, and bawdy humour.Orlam is not only a remarkable coming-of-age tale, but the first full-length book written in the Dorset dialect for many decades. Includes a facing-page English translation.Orlam reveals PJ Harvey as not only one of the most talented songwriters of the age, but a gifted poet—whose formal skill and transforming eye and ear for the lyric line has produced a strange and moving poem like no other.

The New Way to Stop the Daily Battle of Wills and Raise a Secure and Well-Behaved One- to Four-Year-Old
Perfect for expecting parents preparing for the challenging toddler years starting around eight months, this essential guide by pediatrician Dr. Harvey Karp helps reduce tantrums and enhances children's happiness by fostering patience, cooperation, and self-confidence. Toddlers can be both adorable and demanding, but there is a way to transform the daily “nos” into “yeses” by understanding their language. Dr. Karp suggests viewing toddlers not as miniature adults but as pint-sized cavemen. He found that typical calming techniques often fail, and effective communication involves speaking in their primitive language. This insight led him to identify four stages of “evolutionary” growth in children aged one to four, mirroring humanity's journey: 1. The “Charming Chimp-Child” (12-18 months): Wobbly, curious, and playful. 2. The “Knee-High Neanderthal” (18-24 months): Strong-willed and messy, with a limited vocabulary. 3. The “Clever Caveman” (24-36 months): Learning to share and take turns. 4. The “Versatile Villager” (36-48 months): Enjoys storytelling and dancing while trying to behave. Dr. Karp introduces two effective techniques: the “fast food” rule for restating what your child says, and the four-step rule involving gesture, repetition, simplicity, and tone. Mastering “toddler-ese” prepares parents to tackle challenges like separation anxiety, sibling rivalry, and picky eating, resulting in fewer tantrums and more joyf
