Super-Infinite: The Transformations of John Donne by Katherine Rundell
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 8 MB
Overview: Sometime religious outsider and social disaster, sometime celebrity preacher and establishment darling, John Donne was incapable of being just one thing.

In his myriad lives he was a scholar of law, a sea adventurer, a priest, an MP – and perhaps the greatest love poet in the history of the English language. Along the way he converted from Catholicism to Protestantism, was imprisoned for marrying a sixteen-year old girl without her father’s consent; struggled to feed a family of ten children; and was often ill and in pain. He was a man who suffered from black surges of misery, yet expressed in his verse many breathtaking impressions of electric joy and love.

Surviving the Japanese Onslaught: An RAF PoW in Burma by William Tate
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 13 MB
Overview: These are the firsthand memoirs of the late William Albert Tate (W.O, RAF Bomber Command) framed within the factual history of his service career in the Royal Air Force between the years 1938 and 1946, penned by his son. This gripping narrative relays William’s firsthand recollections of his time spent as a Japanese Prisoner of War, when he was incarcerated for two years in Rangoon Gaol, after bailing out of his Wellington over Burma. Tales of the harsh brutalities inflicted by his captors and the unsanitary conditions in which he and his fellow captives were held offer a real sense of the everyday realities experienced by Japanese Prisoners of War at this time. Jungle diseases, enforced starvation, sadistic torture tactics and the ever present threat of aerial bombardment all beset these prisoners. William and his son meditate on the legacies of enduring such trials as these in an engaging account of survival against the odds.

Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 5 MB
Overview: A graphically descriptive account of how solo operating petty burglar, Rudy Guede, climbed a wall and entered through a broken window into the upper flat of Via della Pergola 7 in Perugia, Italy and carried out the several crimes against Meredith Kercher on the night of November 1, 2007 without the participation or help from anyone else.
