Sobre IBD

Teaching in France, vaccinations, Locomotion Number One, Covid-by-the-Sea, four UK trips in six months, French theatre and film projects, model railway displays, book printing, promotion and sales, exercise and old age, Delta and Omicron, Darlington, Manchester and Nottingham, a change of career and re-connecting with the past - follow the modern adventures of Jethro Anson Nowsty, 58, throughout 2021 and into 2022, an English ex-pat living and working in France. Like the mythical ’key to the door’ of maturity in reaching the age of 21, we of Planet Earth should have been passing from one old state to the next new state with flying colours but we would, as usual, go into it expecting far too much and emerge from it having achieved far too little. It was a year of change for our world and a year of change for our reluctant hero.

  • Shambhala
    Nicholas Roerich
    In "Shambhala" Roerich has recorded the way of his journey through Central Asia and Tibet in the terms of spirit. It is a record of legends, of parables, of notes--the very substance of which the larger reality is composed, and all revealing different facets of the theme of Shambhala.

  • The Degas Complex
    Antony J Stowers
    ’Imagination links with memory’ is a quote attributed to the Impressionist painter Edgar Degas (1834-1917) and one which he passed on as advice to many apprentice artists including Paul Gauguin, the title chosen to reflect this quote as it sums up what this book of short stories is: memories mixed up like colours on a Degas palette with liberal sprinkling of contemporary adult ...

  • Ghosts
    Antony J Stowers
    ​It’s peculiar to know that some solid objects have been demolished or destroyed and people have died and can no longer be seen or touched apart from through photographs, films or memories. They’ve become ghosts. For some, anchors are important and for others unimportant. Cutting the chains can free us to move on to new waters but cutting too many can see us drifting in a way w...
