Clairvoyance

“…What I needed was one look,

and with that,

I was clairvoyant.

Your soul and your mind,

the tiniest part of your heart,

I knew it all and I made a promise

that I would teach you

about you,

share my knowledge,

and from this fruitful kinship,

we rise and raise each other high,

me seeing all of you

and you there,

right by my side.”

Trying not to think about it but to see how it makes you feel.

Biggsy is an idealistic 50-year-old English teacher in a West London boys’ secondary school. A maverick head of department who battled against the educational establishment for twenty-five years, he’s beginning to crack. His departmental colleagues love him, but he suspects that the school’s management team is out to get rid of him.

Classic Motor Cartoon Book

Classic motorcars have been featured in movies and pop songs for over seven decades and contributed to the fun of driving historic cars.

This book of motor cartoons illustrates the adventure and romance of classic and vintage cars which also have been part of automobile racing history – from Louis Renault, Henry Ford and Enzo Ferrari to Kiichiro Toyoda today.

From Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Grandma Duck, Noddy and Big Ears to Bonnie and Clyde, Thelma & Louise and The Italian Job, comedy and tragedy have always been a big part of entertaining motoring history.

These cartoons are accompanied by anecdotes of motoring trivia complementing the extraordinary history of the automobile as we remember it before ‘self-drive’ electric cars will silently kill off the ‘internal combustion engine’.

But Clavius learns that it's not what you leave underneath pillows that will make children remember your name.

Cleaning Stories And Other Tails

Cleaning Stories And Other Tails is a broad sweep of mainly the underclass. Bread crumbs of prostitution, idyllic adoption and the mumblings of a white woman near an indigenous reserve make the reader ponder, lash out and albeit care for the various winners and losers that cross days and nights.

The characters drawn from a realm of healers, liars and ordinary Joes populate urban landscapes with self-deprecating wit, emotional shortcomings and identifiable crisis.

The first incarnation of this book was a rough sketch I did while working as a maid in the Jewish ghetto of Montreal, Quebec.

There have been many stained mattresses, unavailable rooms, and smoke-inhaled lobbies in the interim.

Clearwater

The author was born and raised in a traditional rural village in the most violently homophobic country on earth – Nigeria. His memoir tells a harrowing story – how he negotiated ostracism, imprisonment, homelessness, violence, extortion and intense persecution. But he is never a victim – drawing on his own spiritual and emotional resources, he overcomes. He seeks to understand the root causes of homophobia, providing fascinating insights into Igbo culture, history, spirituality and cosmology. Moving rapidly from one hair-raising experience to the next, the tight prose and action-packed narrative will keep the reader engaged until the end. At the same time the author provides hope to those facing persecution and violence, and who find themselves in similar situations.

Climate Countdown

This is a true history of resistance. It is a story of climate protest at home and abroad. Climate Camps were the precursor for groups like Extinction Rebellion and Occupy in the UK, at annual week-long camps focussed on fossil fuel hotspots.It is a study in organisation method and state surveillance – and infiltration.

It is the history of the Climate Camp for Action from 2006 to 2010. The camp’s aims were to educate, live sustainably; and take direct action against the root causes of climate change.
