Review
"Whether writing about Paradise Lost or the lyrics of Nick Cave, Jeffrey Wainwright is an inspiring and engaging critic of poetry. There are pleasures and insights to be found on every page of this immensely readable book.' - Stephen Regan, Royal Holloway, University of London"

Last Bus to Woodstock is a crime novel by Colin Dexter, the first of thirteen novels in his Inspector Morse series.Morse and Lewis investigate the murder of a young woman, Sylvia Kane, found dead in a pub car park. She was last seen at a bus stop asking for the times of the bus to Woodstock and was to meet as friend at the same pub where she was found. She had accepted a lift from someone in a red car and the police find an envelope on the dead girl addressed to Jennifer Coleby, a co-worker. This leads Morse to uncover a complex set of social inter-relationships and eventually, the girl's killer.

Covering the highlights of a destination, these affordable pocket-sized guides include all the attention to detail found in a full-size Frommer's Guide in a pint-size package.

Again a graphic novel (oh, c'mon, people! Just a comic!!!) - this time based upon "Lord Jim". Sadly, not so easy to obtain now as a nicely scanned text.
Both the text and audio of the novel, not the comic! are to be found on Gutenberg project here: http://www.gutenberg.org
