Bleak House is a novel by Charles Dickens. It is held to be one of Dickens's finest novels, containing one of the most vast, complex and engaging arrays of minor characters and sub-plots in his entire canon. The story is told partly by the novel's heroine, Esther Summerson, and partly by a mostly omniscient narrator. Memorable characters include the menacing lawyer Tulkinghorn, the friendly but depressive John Jarndyce, and the childish and disingenuous Harold Skimpole, as well as the likeable but imprudent Richard Carstone. At the novel's core is long-running litigation in England's Court of Chancery, Jarndyce v Jarndyce, which has far-reaching consequences for all involved. This case revolves around a testator who apparently made several wills. The litigation, which already has taken many years and consumed between £60,000 and £70,000 in court costs, is emblematic of the failure of Chancery. Dickens's assault on the flaws of the British judicial system is based in part on his own experiences as a law clerk, and in part on his experiences as a Chancery litigant seeking to enforce copyright on his earlier books. His harsh characterisation of the slow, arcane Chancery law process gave memorable form to pre-existing widespread frustration with the system. [mehr]

Poetry is a gift for the senses. Some feel it is a dying art but I think not. Like any artistic creation it will forever be a part of the beauty we seek. House of Heart is a selection of poems and prose composed in the past five years though I began writing poetry and short stories at the early age. Writing is an important part of my life. I hope you will relate to these poems and that my words will resonate with you in a positive way. [mehr]

Cats aren't antisocial. They are affable and gregarious. Once you know how to talk to them, bond with them, you will love them and they will return their love to you. They can lock eyes with you in a way other animals can't. This is an excerpt from the ebook, "House cat Redux" that is available at Amazon for Kindle. You need a Kindle to read the rest of it but you can read a good part about becoming a friend with a totally unknown cat. It is an one-on-one relationship with a cat, between you and the cat. I want to change people's mind about cats and I want them to treat their cats better. [mehr]
