Siddhartha is a novel by Hermann Hesse that deals with the spiritual journey of self-discovery of a man named Siddhartha during the time of the Gautama Buddha. The book, Hesse's ninth novel, was written in German, in a simple, lyrical style. It was published in America in 1951 and became influential during the 1960s. Hesse dedicated the first part of it to Romain Rolland and the second part to Wilhelm Gundert, his cousin. The word Siddhartha is made up of two words in Sanskrit language, siddha (achieved) + artha (what was searched for), which together means "he who has found meaning (of existence)" or "he who has attained his goals". In fact, the Buddha's own name, before his renunciation, was Siddhartha Gautama, Prince of Kapilavastu. In this book, the Buddha is referred to as "Gotama"

Once I Write of Love is a collection of poetry and Prose written more than ten years ago, it not just an anthology of Love, far from it. It is a collection of many feelings with Love being just one of those. Life after all is made up from many experiences, sensations and colours. At times it is light, innocent, pleasant, a joy to know and at other times it is hard, dark and sorrowfully woe and let's face it we have all experienced these feelings many times in our lives. We also have very different ideas of human emotion and these emotions often reflect our mood and what is happening in our lives at that given time. Our worldly lives are as deep and as rough, as calm and complex as a vast sea, ever moving, ever changing like waves rushing to shore. Those torrents of waves mix up our sentiments, our ideas and the literature bound in this book emphasis that note by note. Once I write of Love is a very personal anthology of life, from childhood through to young adulthood, beautifully illustrated with 25 sketches from the Victorian era, the 1950's and 60's and modern abstract art. The words within this book are very much from a life now passed, often misunderstood, often void of any reason. It is an exhaustive anthology of living It is what poetry should be, a timeless imprint from a moment in time.

The Lord of Milan is a work of fiction based on the life of Herbert Kilpin, a textile worker from Nottingham who in 1899 founded AC Milan and led the football team to its first three championship titles. He played for the club until he was 38, in a time of widespread hunger, ice cream-eating assassins and war, while the seeds of fascism took root in Italy. Posing nonchalantly for the camera in his team's famous red and black stripes, cigarette in hand, he openly drank Scotch whisky before, during and after matches, to recharge his batteries. Kilpin died in obscurity in 1916 while his club went on to become one of the most successful in world football. One hundred years after this death, Kilpin is regarded as the father of Italian football. To the fans of his team he is, simply, The Lord of Milan.

John Galt (2 May 1779 - 11 April 1839) was a Scottish novelist, entrepreneur, and political and social commentator. Because he was the first novelist to deal with issues of the Industrial Revolution, he has been called the first political novelist in the English language. He was the founder of the city of Guelph in Canada, and father of Sir Alexander Tilloch Galt of Montreal. Galt's novels are best known for their depiction of Scottish rural life, tinged with ironic humor. The Ayrshire Legatees was originally published in 1821 and it touches the lives of the humble Pringle family of Scotland which turned upside down with the news that they have been named the recipients of a relative's inheritance.
