You see, the term “testimony” of course implies that we can’t actually verify independently everything that the witness says. And that I think is one of the most important historical methods of confirming testimony. So that’s one way of verifying that the Gospels are credible from that geographical-historical context that they claim to be about. The gospels are actually full of all kinds of little detail about people and places, and all kinds of stuff about the historical context in which the stories take place. Not long after Jesus and the Eyewitnesses was first released, we had the opportunity to interview Bauckham on White Horse Inn and in that conversation, he laid out his overall approach: In his foreword to this second edition, Cambridge scholar Simon Gathercole acknowledges the importance of Bauckham’s original work in the world of New Testament scholar-ship: “Whenever I have been asked over the past ten years what the most significant recent books in my discipline are, I have invariably made mention of this book” (xi). Last spring, Eerdmans released a new edition with three completely new chapters, a new preface and an updated bibliography. It has been over a decade since Richard Bauckham’s critically acclaimed book Jesus and the Eyewitnesses was first published.

In the US The Eyre Affair was also an instant hit, entering the New York Times Bestseller List in its first week of publication. Luckily for Jasper, the novel garnered dozens of effusive reviews, and received high praise from the press, from booksellers and readers throughout the UK. Thursday's job includes spotting forgeries of Shakespeare's lost plays, mending holes in narrative plot lines, and rescuing characters who have been kidnapped from literary masterpieces. Set in 1985 in a world that is similar to our own, but with a few crucial - and bizarre - differences (Wales is a socialist republic, the Crimean War is still ongoing and the most popular pets are home-cloned dodos), The Eyre Affair introduces literary detective named 'Thursday Next'. Secretly harbouring a desire to tell his own stories rather than help other people tell their's, Jasper started writing in 1988, and spent eleven years secretly writing novel after novel as he strove to find a style of his own that was a no-mans-land somewhere between the warring factions of Literary and Absurd.Īfter receiving 76 rejection letters from publishers, Jasper's first novel The Eyre Affair was taken on by Hodder & Stoughton and published in July 2001. Fforde began his career in the film industry, and for nineteen years held a variety of posts on such movies as Goldeneye, The Mask of Zorro and Entrapment.

Tamsyn Muir's New York Times and USA Today bestselling Locked Tomb Series continues with Nona. Hammett's childhood, his life in San Francisco, and especially his experience as a detective deeply informed his writing and his characters, from the nameless Continental Op, hero of his stories and early novels, to Sam Spade and Nick Charles. That largely overlooked phase is the subject of Nathan Ward's enthralling The Lost Detective. While Hammett's life on center stage has been well-documented, the question of how he got there has not. The tuberculosis he contracted during the war forced him to leave the Pinkertons-but it may well have prompted one of America's most acclaimed writing careers. Born in 1894 into a poor Maryland family, Hammett left school at fourteen and held several jobs before joining the Pinkerton National Detective Agency as an operative in 1915 and, with time off in 1918 to serve at the end of World War I, he remained with the agency until 1922, participating alike in the banal and dramatic action of an operative. Before he became a household name in America as perhaps our greatest hard-boiled crime writer, before his attachment to Lillian Hellman and blacklisting during the McCarthy era, and his subsequent downward spiral, Dashiell Hammett led a life of action. From this beginning, friendship develops, but when Lina and her family are given permission to resettle in America, the two girls face being parted. At first each girl keeps her sandal to herself, but eventually they decide to share the pair, alternating days. When relief workers pass out used clothing, Lina finds one yellow sandal with a blue flower on it, but discovers that its companion has been claimed by Feroza. Lina and Feroza have both fled war-torn Afghanistan with their families, heading for the relative safety of nearby Pakistan. Co-authors Karen Lynn Williams and Khadra Mohammed spin an immensely poignant tale of two girls living in a refugee camp in Four Feet, Two Sandals.
