A collection of poetry by writers involved in the justice and peace spirituality of the Iona Community.
Martin Hayes spent his childhood on a farm in County Clare, in a household steeped in musical tradition. After a free-spirited youth, he headed to the United States where he built a career that led to a life of musical performance on stages all over the world. Shared Notes traces this remarkable journey. Picking up his first fiddle at the age of seven, Hayes learned that music must express feeling. No amount of technical prowess can compensate for an absence of soulfulness. His interpretations of traditional Irish music are recognized the world over for their exquisite musicality and irresistible rhythm. Hayes has toured and recorded with guitarist Dennis Cahill for over twenty years, founded the Irish-American band The Gloaming, The Martin Hayes Quartet and The Common Ground Ensemble, and here, for the first time, tells his story of getting to the heart of the music.
A private eye investigates the woman who once betrayed him in this romantic suspense from a New York Times–bestselling author. For the second time in her life Clancy Jones had awakened at a murder scene—this time with the murder weapon in her hand. To the untrained eye, she looked mighty guilty. But to private investigator Jake Hawkins, she still looked good. Desire for Clancy had always burned inside Jake; so had anger. Ten years ago Clancy sleepwalked on to another crime scene and her testimony had put Jake’s father behind bars. Now Jake didn’t know if he wanted to prove his seductive client’s innocence—or guilt.

The achievement of Christopher Wood has often been overshadowed by the legend that grew up around his life after his dramatic suicide at the age of 29. Increasingly, however, critics have come to see his work, particularly the output of the last two years of his life, as having a pivotal role in the development of modernism in Britain. The integrity of Wood's endeavour, the combination of self-confidence and uncertainty, accomplishment and awkwardness gives his paintings a very human quality that continues to be recognised and admired by audiences and painters today.
