The six 'sherds' contained here - whether fragments of a novel, or short stories, or what you will - cover a good deal of ground, from a highly apocryphal tale of an errant young Jesus to a tattooist's caper in Polynesia, stopping off in Renaissance Venice and England at the time of Queen Elizabeth I (with the Royal personage herself making a revealing appearance). These disparate pieces are united by the eternal pursuits of love, desire and the quest for a higher power, all wrapped up in the author's highly individual prose style, which contrives to be at once cynical and Olympian. 'From the stables and pastures of Andrew Motion, the late Max Harris, David K. Wong, and Sid Stebel, comes the author, so shall ye read.' - John Lawson

"Poor John!" she was murmuring. "I am sure it was the wearing cark of money troubles that killed him. Still, he is in heaven now. But the clergyman said in his sermon that heaven was only a pretty fairy tale." She wept anew.

The Lost Spirit: A Poem is a literary work by John Lawson, originally published in 1825. The book is a narrative poem that tells the story of a lost spirit who wanders through the world searching for meaning and purpose. The poem is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of the spirit's journey. Throughout the book, the lost spirit encounters a variety of characters and situations that challenge its beliefs and force it to confront its own inner demons. The poem is rich in symbolism and imagery, using vivid descriptions to create a haunting and atmospheric world. At its core, The Lost Spirit is a meditation on the human condition, exploring themes of identity, purpose, and the search for meaning in life. The book is a timeless classic that has resonated with readers for generations, and continues to be celebrated for its beautiful language and profound insights into the human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Nick Willard may be three years her junior but he has pined for Annie Kurtz since they were both prep school students. After 9/11, however, Annie joins the Marines, eventually making a split-second decision her superiors never wanted her to make and leaving her to wrestle with whether she should have followed orders or her conscience. After her return from a combat deployment to Afghanistan, Nick, now a successful journalist, must grapple with his own conscience as he uncovers the reasons for the changes to the schoolgirl he has long deified. Together, Nick and Annie explore the tensions between love and friendship, even those between morality and law, as they come of age amid the psychological traumas that result when war makers sweep reality under a rug of ridiculous details.
