Although it isn’t the most well-written books, something about the all for the game series makes me think about it everyday. ![]()

On my return to the USA after several months in the hospital I entered the Society of Jesus. My constant prayer from that moment to this is ‘Lord grant me the grace to know what you want from me and grant me the courage to be able to do it!’ I date my vocation to the priesthood to that moment.

This is the benefit of a considered contextual response to site, something that the traditional terrace layout – by nature of its repetitive application – often lacks. To the north, however, the opportunity to take advantage of northerly light has resulted in an exterior wall that is set back from the boundary, allowing even light to flood the ground-floor kitchen and dining area. The result is a design that embodies many of the qualities valued in architecture: a sense of generosity, good amenity for occupants, a considered response to context, and the application of detail in the right places.Īdopting the typical terrace house form, the design takes in almost the full width of the site, with the exterior southern wall hugging the side boundary.

What is it about this 16th-century play that has had such a lasting impression on readers and audiences? Read on to find out more about William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. While George Cukor’s 1936 film, Franco Zeffirelli’s 1968 movie, and Baz Luhrmann’s modern (for 1996) adaptation are some of the best known big-screen interpretations of the rivalry between the Montagues and the Capulets, West Side Story is yet another take on the tale. There have been musical versions, opera renditions, and more than 100 film and TV versions of the play. William Shakespeare's tragic story of two star-crossed lovers has been adapted hundreds-if not thousands-of times over the years, and not always exactly in the Bard’s own words. It’s safe to say that there are few people on Earth who don’t know the story of Romeo and Juliet. ![]() ![]() ![]() Jonathan Burton returns to capture all the grandeur, spectacle and emotion, with six colour illustrations and a double-page spread in each volume. ![]() Following on from The Folio Society’s wildly successful edition of A Game of Thrones, this unique two-volume set is packed with details that fans will love, including specially designed chapter headings and spectacular bindings. ![]() Meanwhile, our favourite characters face extraordinary trials simply to survive.
