'A marvellous celebration of du Maurier's life, work and cultural legacy' SARAH WATERS 'She wrote exciting plots, she was highly skilled at arousing suspense' GUARDIAN 'One of the last century's most original literary talents ' DAILY TELEGRAPH Daphne du Maurier is one of Britain's best-loved bestselling authors. Her writing captured the imagination in a way that few have been able to equal. Rebecca, her most famous novel was a huge success on first publication and brought du Maurier international fame. This enduring classic remains one of the nation's favourite books. In this celebration of Daphne du Maurier's life and achievements, today's leading writers, critics and academics discuss the novels, short stories and biographies that made her one of the most spellbinding and genre-defying authors of her generation. The film versions of her books are also explored, including Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca and The Birds and Nicholas Roeg's Don't Look Now. Featuring interviews with du Maurier's family and a long-lost short story by the author herself, this is the indispensable companion to her work. Contributors include Sarah Dunant, Sally Beauman, Margaret Forster, Antonia Fraser, Michael Holroyd, Lisa Jardine, Julie Myerson, Justine Picardie and Minette Walters.

'Helen Taylor's memoir offers the perspective that's often missing' New Statesman Helen Taylor cuts through the taboo of voluntary childlessness in this timely, intimate and groundbreaking exploration of what it means to live a life without children. Part memoir, part cultural history, this compelling narrative weaves personal experience with rigorous analysis to challenge our assumptions about family, fulfilment and female identity. Drawing on a lifetime of experience as a feminist academic who chose not to have children, Taylor examines the joys and complexities of her path less travelled. She traces how attitudes toward childlessness have evolved - and sometimes haven't. With unflinching honesty, she confronts the challenges of aging without children while celebrating the freedom and opportunities her choice has provided. Through interviews with other women, analysis of cultural attitudes and examination of literature and media, Taylor builds a rich tapestry of what it means to live outside traditional family structures. She explores thorny questions about legacy, purpose and belonging in a world that often defines women through motherhood. Taylor's warm, intelligent voice guides us through territory that has too long been shadowed by judgement and misconception, offering wisdom, solidarity and a new framework for understanding the many ways to live a meaningful life.

Congratulations to SAGE author Shaun L. Gabbidon for becoming the second scholar in the college′s history to be named a Distinguished Professor by the University′s Office of the President (Pennsylvania State University, Harrisburg)"This collection of writings is crucially important, in part, because it reminds us the theoretical paradigms of these and other African American scholars are excluded when crime, its causes, and its control are discussed by criminologists, criminal justice practitioners, and policy makers. To understand crime fully, the perspectives advanced by these scholars must become an integral part of discussions about who is a criminal and which public policies will best control crime." --From the forward by Anne Thomas Sulton, Ph.D, J.D. From W.E.B. Dubois through Lee Brown, this anthology provides a collection of the key articles in criminology and criminal justice written by black scholars. Available in a single volume for the first time, the articles collected in this book reflect the voices of African-American scholars and display the diversity of perspectives sought after in today′s academic community. Crime in the African-American community is examined from social, economic and political perspectives, and the historical context of each article is provided by the editors. Spanning the 20th century, these works present a historical chronology of African-American views on crime and its control with theoretical perspectives that have often been tangential to mainstream scholarship. For your courses in: Criminological Theory Race and Crime Crime and Social Policy Minorities and Criminal Justice

For Europeans looking across the Atlantic, American culture is often the site of desire, fascination, and envy. In Britain, the rich culture of the American South has made a particularly strong impact. Helen Taylor explores the ways in which contemporary Southern culture has been enthusiastically produced and reproduced in a British context. Taylor examines some of the South''s most significant cultural exports in discussions that range across literature, music, film, television, theater, advertising, and tourism to focus on how and why Southern themes and icons have become so deeply embedded in British cultural life. The enduring legacy of Margaret Mitchell''s Gone With the Wind can be seen today in the popularity of sequels, revisions, and reworkings of the novel. The conversation between these cultures is further explored in British responses to Alex Haley''s Roots, the British theater''s special affection for Tennessee Williams''s plays, and the marketing of New Orleans as a preferred destination for European tourists. The transformation of Southern culture--itself a hybrid of the European, African, and American--as it circulates back across the Atlantic suggests not only new views of the history, racial politics, music and art of both Britain and the American South, but also an enhanced understanding of the dynamic flow of culture itself.
