Besides the entertaining tales one learns what it must have been like to have lived in the late Medeaval (European) period in what is today war torn Iraq. I appreciate the the read in order to give an honest review. Her style is endearing and her hippie attitude absolutely lovable. He runs into people that are kind and help him with food and shelter, but he is also tracked by slave catchers who exact terrible punishments on those suspected of being abolitionists or of helping runaway slaves.THREE LINKS OF CHAIN is well-written and well-paced. Not being very familiar with Mediterranean food, I initially flipped through the book, saw recipes like "Clam Cataplana with Chourico" and "Pan Con Tomate with Jamon Serrano" and thought 'No way am I cooking ANY of this.' I was convinced all the recipes would be out of my league, both in skill and ingredient availability.

In the nineteenth century, literature shared with the medical and psychological sciences a strategy of examining the most extreme manifestations of human desire. In this groundbreaking study, Lisa Downing rescues necrophilia from the margins of sexual desire, relocating it as a symptom and a pervasive fantasy of modern subjectivity. While fetishism, sadism and masochism still resonate as concepts with critical currency, necrophilia has received little attention. She reads against the grain of traditional Freudian theories of sexuality, the conventions of nineteenth-century literary scholarship, and feminist critiques of the 'masculine' morbid aesthetic in order to bring to light a model of desire whose problematic nature afflicts existing discourses about sexuality and gender in nineteenth-century France and beyond.. Drawing case material from the nineteenth-century French canon the author brings works by Baudelaire and Rachilde into dialogue with foundational European texts of sexology and psychoanalysis
