A River Out Of Eden is Howard Goodall’s vibrant choral anthem for SATB voices and piano, composed to celebrate the service of Sid and Cindy Davis at St Luke’s United Methodist Church, Houston. The music sets two distinct accounts of creation: William Tyndale’s translation from The Book of Genesis and an excerpt from Annie Dillard’s Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. Intertwined through Goodall’s contemporary musical style, the disorder underlying Dillard’s text erupts into Tyndale’s joyous refrain: ‘And there spronge a rever out of Eden’, the music a reflection upon our dependence on the natural world. An optional organ part is also available to download from fabermusic.com. Σελίδες: 24, Διαστάσεις: 17.6x17.6cm

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. In 1936, George Orwell volunteered as a soldier in the Spanish Civil War. In Homage to Catalonia, first published just before the outbreak of World War II, Orwell documents the chaos and bloodshed of that moment in history and the voices of those who fought against rising fascism. His experience of the civil war would spark a significant change in his own political views, which readers today will recognise in much of his later literary work; a rage against the threat of totalitarianism and control.

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. Winston Smith rewrites history. It’s his job. Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, he helps the Party, and the omnipresent Big Brother, control the people of Oceania. Winston knows what a good citizen of Oceania must do: show his devotion for Big Brother and the Party; abstain from all vices; and, most importantly, possess no critical thoughts of their own. The new notebook he’s begun to write in is definitely against the rules – in fact, the Thought Police could arrest him simply for having it. Yet, as Winston begins to write his own history, a seed of rebellion begins to grow in his heart – one that could have devastating consequences. In George Orwell’s final and most well-known novel, he explores a dystopian future in which a totalitarian government controls the actions, thoughts and even emotions of its citizens, exercising power through control of language and history. Its lasting popularity is testament to Orwell’s powerful prose, and is a passionate political warning for today. Σελίδες: 384, Διαστάσεις: 11.1x11.1cm
