From its inaugural Black Plaque in honour of Witchfinder General director Michael Reeves, this unique collection follows a veridical trajectory to the frontiers of belief. Reeves' film becomes a conspiratorial cauldron drawing in a host of tragic players in the end game of the Sixties. The Cornwall of Du Maurier's The Birds is ploughed to reveal the hidden psychic codes of our Blitz spirit. In a powerfully relevant occult rendering of a bruised Island, the myth of Churchill is dissected and re-animalised. New maps of hell are drawn by colliding the forensic vision of JG Ballard and Lovecraftian magic. Actors, witches and psychopaths maraud across a nightmare terrain of murderous henges and abandoned military bases; conflating creative research into a surreal documentary, history as hallucination. Geography becomes an alchemical alembic, a vale of soul-making distilled by the lysergic psychobiology of Stanislav Grof, the alcoholic lyricism of Malcolm Lowry, and the convulsive travelogues of the Marquis de Sade. If history is revealed as paranoid ritual, how do we escape its time traps to wild new imaginative geographies? The English Heretic collection is a darkly comical, urgently lyrical, mental escape hatch from the hells of our own making.

"Padura’s Heretics spans and defies literary categories . . . ingenious." —Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air A sweeping novel of art theft, anti-Semitism, contemporary Cuba, and crime from a renowned Cuban author, Heretics is Leonardo Padura's greatest detective work yet. In 1939, the Saint Louis sails from Hamburg into Havana’s port with hundreds of Jewish refugees seeking asylum from the Nazi regime. From the docks, nine-year-old Daniel Kaminsky watches as the passengers, including his mother, father, and sister, become embroiled in a fiasco of Cuban corruption. But the Kaminskys have a treasure that they hope will save them: a small Rembrandt portrait of Christ. Yet six days later the vessel is forced to leave the harbor with the family, bound for the horrors of Europe. The Kaminskys, along with their priceless heirloom, disappear. Nearly seven decades later, the Rembrandt reappears in an auction house in London, prompting Daniel’s son to travel to Cuba to track down the story of his family’s lost masterpiece. He hires the down-on-his-luck private detective Mario Conde, and together they navigate a web of deception and violence in the morally complex city of Havana. In Heretics, Leonardo Padura takes us from the tenements and beaches of Cuba to Rembrandt’s gloomy studio in seventeenth-century Amsterdam, telling the story of people forced to choose between the tenets of their faith and the realities of the world, between their personal desires and the demands of their times. A grand detective story and a moving historical drama, Padura’s novel is as compelling, mysterious, and enduring as the painting at its center.

This book was released on . Desiderium available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Everyone has demons. What are yours? Voices spoke to him so he listened and started writing to tell their stories to the world. It is written by a man with a broken heart and internal struggles but you will be gravely mistaken to think it is about a young heart whining for love. The verses are from the depths of a soul. A soul is eternal, hence these words. This man seeks meaning behind life. If happiness is all you seek this book is not for you. This book has secrets you wish you knew. But can you bear the burden that comes with knowing? Read what the author has to say about the book. Our experiences help to shape our outlook towards the universe. The mind savage by birth, fed with negativities it grows into a hideous creature. The world outside may not always be pleasant so we must contemplate what we see and feel to understand the complex truth of this cosmos. I do not deny that the world we live in is free of the darkness, brutality and injustice. I believe, with the knowledge of harsh truth comes equanimity. This is my attempt to give a little meaning to the agonies and burdens we share. It might appear meaningless to some but so is this world. This book is a collection of poems for you but not for me. These are my reflections on love and life. These are my critiques on man and society. These are my views on misery and faith. These words are voices from my soul. -Preface
