Revenge Is Not a Game


Book Description

Set in Mumbai, India, this epic story explores the heartaches, the joys, the sorrows, the successes, the failures, the passions, the intrigues, and the drugs. It is a story of love and hatred, revenge, and greed. Revenge Is Not a Game exposes the intricate details of the financial world that motivates and influences the game of cricket. A saga of two very strong characters, drawn together by a common ambition to build the biggest financial and management empire at the highest level of sport. However, sudden and tragic circumstances cut deep into their relationship, inextricably drawing them apart to the point they become bitter enemies. Tony de Silva, India’s greatest cricketer, retires at the height of his career. All he plans to do is settle down and relax, that is until he meets Leya Raman, a strikingly beautiful woman, and the owner of a successful financial management company. Leya falls in love with Tony, but he has eyes only for her sister, Karma. Dejected and distraught, Leya swears revenge. Two potential tycoons full of testosterone and ambition play out their rivalry, reaching a climax that ultimately destroys one of them. This book should be read just for the sheer brilliance of John Sealey’s storytelling ability, which makes readers eager to want to turn to the next page.

The Author's Hand and the Printer's Mind


Book Description

In Early Modern Europe the first readers of a book were not those who bought it. They were the scribes who copied the author’s or translator’s manuscript, the censors who licensed it, the publisher who decided to put this title in his catalogue, the copy editor who prepared the text for the press, divided it and added punctuation, the typesetters who composed the pages of the book, and the proof reader who corrected them. The author’s hand cannot be separated from the printers’ mind. This book is devoted to the process of publication of the works that framed their readers’ representations of the past or of the world. Linking cultural history, textual criticism and bibliographical studies, dealing with canonical works - like Cervantes’ Don Quixote or Shakespeare’s plays - as well as lesser known texts, Roger Chartier identifies the fundamental discontinuities that transformed the circulation of the written word between the invention of printing and the definition, three centuries later, of what we call 'literature'.
