For many years, The Secret Commonwealth was hard to find - available, if at all, only in scholarly editions. Kirk’s manuscript was discovered after his death in 1692 and remained unpublished for more than a century, until Sir Walter Scott released it as The Secret Commonwealth Of Elves, Fauns And. Lang's introduction to Kirk's extraordinary blend of science, religion, and superstition is included in this edition. In 1893, the distinguished folklorist Andrew Lang re-edited the work. Robert Kirk (9 December 1644 ) was a minister, Gaelic scholar and folklorist, best known for The Secret Commonwealth, a treatise on fairy folklore, witchcraft, ghosts, and second sight, a type of extrasensory perception described as a phenomenon by the people of the Scottish Highlands. Left in manuscript form upon the author's death in 1692, this volume was first published in 1815 at the behest of Sir Walter Scott. Magic was a part of everyday life for Kirk and his fellow Highlanders, and this remarkable book offers rare glimpses into their enchanted realm. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In the late 17th century, a Scottish minister went looking for supernatural creatures of "a middle nature betwixt man and angel."

He considered suicide on multiple occasions – including offering himself up to a pack of circling sharks. Not one stopped for the stranded fisherman. Three dozen cruise ships and container vessels passed nearby. When he was washed ashore on January 30th, 2014, he had drifted over 9,000 miles.

A quarter of a century after her death, her reputation hasn’t withered in the slightest. Such vituperation proves, at least, that Hepburn still has the ability to get under people’s skins. “Why do I hate her so?” was the headline to an article in a British newspaper when the BFI gave her a retrospective in 2004. Emma Thompson called her “fantastically twee” and claimed Hepburn couldn’t sing and couldn’t really act either. There are some, though, who simply can’t abide her. Hepburn, who died in 1993, was one of the most loved screen actresses of her generation.

If you are looking for a gripping, keep-you-guessing-til the-last-page summer thriller, make The Therapist your next read! The narrator, Olivia Dowd, expressed the confusion and fear that Alice experienced wonderfully. I received an audio galley from #netgalley and #dio, and the narration was excellent. The characters, both central and ancillary, were very well developed compared to many other books I’ve read recently in this genre. It very much kept me guessing until the end I was convinced everyone in The Circle was guilty of killing Nina at one time or another throughout the novel. Domestic upset, challenging relationships with neighbors, and amateur sleuthing ensues. Shortly after moving in, Alice learns that the former resident, a therapist named Nina, was murdered in the home. ![]() Alice and her partner, Leo, move into the lovely gated community known as The Circle. ![]() ![]() ![]() Oh my gosh… I really don’t even know where to start with this book.
