"Violence and War in Culture and the Media explores the roots of violence and war through the lenses of five very different disciplines　(history, culture, sociology, politics and gender) with a focus on very different subjects, ranging from an original interpretation of Manet’s artwork "The Execution of Emperor Maximilian"　to studies on early systems of communication in the Thirty Years War, culture and memories of violence and war, cyberwar, and rape narratives in South Africa, as well as war between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006, among other deeply researched chapters, all with a common denominator of media and communications. The result is totally unexpected and serendipitous, allowing disciplines that rarely speak to one another to inter-communicate—and learn from one another—for the very first time."- Hall Gardner, Professor and Chair, Department of International and Comparative Politics, American University of Paris
"From the postal system in the Thirty Years War to bondage imagery in fashion shoots, from hacker activists in Eastern Europe to rape narratives in South Africa, these essays offer new connections between violence and culture, between mediation and domination, between the politics of conflict and the conflicts of politics." - Graham Meikle, Senior Lecturer in Communications, Media and Culture, University of Sterling
"The authors do an excellent jo speaking to the range of topics that make up the phenomena of 'violence and war'. " - Brittany Farr, University of Southern California

"Lansens overcomes the &#8216;ick&#8217; factor in this surprisingly moving story... The novel's power lies in the wonderful narrative voices of Rose and Ruby. Lansens has created a richly nuanced, totally believable sibling relationship... An unsentimental, heartwarming page-turner. Quite an achievement."&#8211;Starred Kirkus Review"It is the true test of a writer&#8217;s mettle to create a convincing narrator, and Lori Lansens has done it not once but twice in her remarkable novel about conjoined twins. The two fascinating protagonists of &#8220;The Girls&#8221; live their lives together in every way, and yet nevertheless emerge with beliefs and desires all their own, and with distinct outlooks on their difficult circumstances. Lori Lansens is clearly a novelist with a very delicate touch."&#8211;Arthur Golden, author of Memoirs of a Geisha&#8220;The Girls, the year&#8217;s best book to come out of Canada, possibly the world. There&#8217;s deep craft at work here. The Girls communicates astute insights into the art of the memoir and tackles plot development that would sink most other writers. Lansens navigates them effortlessly. Awesome.&#8221; &#8211;NOW magazine "I promise: you will never forget this extraordinary story. Love, connection, loyalty, raw humanity and much more are the ingredients of this most unusual novel.  Lori Lansens's blend of tragedy and comedy will touch you deeply.&#8211;Isabel Allende&#8220;A stunner&#8230;immensely exciting&#8230;a tribute to the extraordinariness of human consciousness&#8230;laced with delightful comic moments&#8230;not just a sophisticated literary accomplishment but a darned good read.&#8221;&#8211;Toronto Star&#8220;Extraordinary&#8230;a masterful and sophisticated duet&#8230;a multidimensional vision of the sisters&#8217; lives.&#8221; &#8211;Time Magazine&#8220;A compelling read (I devoured it in one sitting)&#8230;Lansens&#8217; beautiful writing is so detailed that it is often easy to forget that the material is not based on a true story. She captures what it would be like never to sleep, bathe, go for a walk or meet friends on your own.&#8221;&#8211;The National Post

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a work that doesn&rsquo;t so much subvert expectations as shatter them utterly. It&rsquo;s dense, but it also&#160;moves;&#160;it&rsquo;s both a breakneck&#160;thriller and one of the year&rsquo;s most thoughtful works of science fiction.&rdquo;&ndash;&#160;B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog&ldquo;Matthew De Abaitua has the knack of delivering the most complex of concepts and diabolical leaps of imagination in a way that first entices then completely draws the reader in. A&#160;thrilling book.&rdquo;&ndash;&#160;Strange Alliances&ldquo;A marvellously written book, whose invention and surprises gain momentum until its boggler of an ending.&rdquo;&ndash; SFX Magazine&ldquo;The story is set against a detailed background that blends creative imagination with intelligent prediction to arrive at a credible future.

That De Abaitua navigates the often abstruse territory of his particular science fiction without once sacrificing the predominantly literary values of formal coherence or linguistic suppleness is yet more testament to his skill, not just as a writer but as a thinker.&rdquo;&ndash;&#160;Nina Allan, for&#160;The Anglia Ruskin Centre for Science Fiction and Fantasy
