Content: This review draws on a collection of seminal writings dealing with the development of competition policy in Europe, the United States and Japan. It begins by discussing the writings of leading philosophers and scholars on the rationale and desirability of competition in market economies. These interpretations range in time of origin from ancient Greece through to Adam Smith and James Madison to very recent contributions in the competition policy debate. Having established relevant philosophical foundations, the review offers analyses by leading British, American, German and Japanese scholars on the interpretation and administration of laws concerning price-fixing and other restrictive agreements, market dominance and monopolization, predatory practices and mergers

Content: The so-called Genesis Apocryphon (1Q20) from Qumran Cave 1 has suffered from decades of neglect, due in large part to its poor state of preservation. As part of a resurgent scholarly interest in the Apocryphon, and its prominent position among the Aramaic Dead Sea Scrolls, this volume presents a fresh transcription, translation, and exstenive textual notes drawing on close study of the original manuscript, all available photographs, and previous publications. In addition, a detailed analysis of columns 13-15 and their relation to the oft-cited parallel in the Book of Jubilees reveals a number of ways in which the two works differ, thereby highlighting several distinctive features of the Genesis Apocryphon. The result is a reliable text edition and a fuller understanding of the message conveyed by this fragmentary but fascinating retelling of Genesis

Adele grew up in the shadows8212 first watching from backstage at her mother's Parisian dance halls, then wandering around the gloomy, haunted rooms of her father's manor. When she's finally sent away to boarding school in London, she's happy to enter the brightly lit world of society girls and their wealthy suitors. Yet there are shadows there, too. Many of the men that try to charm Adele's new friends do so with dark intentions. After a violent assault, she turns to a roguish young con woman for help. Together, they become vigilantes meting out justice. But can Adele save herself from the same fate as those she protects? With a queer romance at its heart, this lush historical thriller offers readers an irresistible mix of vengeance and empowerment. "

Ad�le grows up with her beloved Maman, a showgirl and prostitute, in a brothel in France until the day when a certain Mr. Rochester, her presumed father, takes her away from everything she has ever known all the way to the English countryside. As Ad�le grows up, she studies under the tutelage of her beloved governess, Jane Eyre,discovers the appalling secret her father keeps hidden at Thornfield,and starts a correspondence with her distant cousin Eric Fairfax. But after her father and Jane get married, she is sent away to the Webster School for Young Ladies to become the perfect English lady. As Ad�le and her newfound friends navigate the world of balls and courtship, Ad�le discovers a darker side of life. She tangles with an alluring young woman, an honorable thief, to fend off the abusive men who come after those she loves--until the day one of them comes for her. This story inspired by Charlotte Bront�'s classic is an engaging tale of female friendship, love, and vigilantism that does not pull punches in its study of the original, especially when it scrutinizes and wholly deromanticizes Mr. Rochester. Ad�le shines as an astute, clear-minded, bisexual protagonist who is moved above all by her fierce love for her friends. All main characters are assumed White. An absorbing and empowering tale.

At nine, Ad�le Varens is plucked from a Parisian brothel and taken to Yorkshire by Mr. Rochester, a man who may or may not be her father. As a teenager, Ad�le uneasily witnesses her governess, Jane Eyre, being absorbed by her love for Mr. Rochester. The novel is most gripping-and terrifying-in its beginning and concluding portions, which reconsider Jane Eyre from Ad�le's perspective. However, the plot loses momentum in the middle, when Jane sends Ad�le to a London finishing school. Ad�le attends tea parties in the day and sneaks out at night as a vigilante murderess and pickpocket. The satisfaction gained from this novel hinges on whether we desire practicality in Ad�le's resistance to entrenched misogyny. Jane Eyre 's protagonist stays level-headed as she faces Gothic manifestations of societal dysfunction: Jane's difficult solution to her older employer's bigamous desire is to leave and get a teaching job that gives her independence. By contrast, Ad�le and her lover, Nan, rob gentlemen with ease. Her targets are banal, evil products of a misogynist culture that lack the specificity of individuals, unlike Bront�'s gallery of everyday villains, from Aunt Reed to St. John Rivers. Yet, eventually, a palpable threat manifests in the form of Mr. Rochester. Ad�le's ability to act despite her vulnerability is much more compelling than her invincibility as the Villainess of London. VERDICT For those who turn from Jane Eyre with a desire for a queer heroine who can punish Mr. Rochester by way of a penny-dreadful revenge plot.- Katherine MagyarodyCopyright 2022 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.

Ad�le, born in Paris to a mother who was a dancer and courtesan, understands how to lure a man. She knows, too, how little worth a woman's word holds when things go wrong, and that women must look out for each other because of it. So when her mother dies and Ad�le is sent to live with Edward Rochester, the wealthy man she's told is her father, she finds herself uncomfortable in his estate, despite her love for the governess who becomes his wife. It's not until she's sent to boarding school and finds kinship with other girls that she truly feels at home. But even here, the world is dangerous, and after a ball leads to an assault on one of her friends, Ad�le finds herself caught up in an underworld of vigilantes dealing justice against the worst men of their society--and she's fighting alongside a girl who has Ad�le's head spinning. In a forward, Cornwell discusses her status as a designated Rochester-hater and she has revenge on him here, giving many of the women who spent Jane Eyre in his considerable shadow the space to love, to speak, and, if they must, to kill. A delicious reconstruction. COPYRIGHT(2022) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. "

There are those who believe that a book can be a repozwa , in which a spirit may dwell, as in a grotto, tree, or spring. If that is true, then the spirit living in this book must be a very great one. —,b〉Madison Smartt Bell , author of Behind the Moon With the force of an earthquake and with unrelenting prose, Katia D.

Three thousand miles away, Jacqueline Florestant mourns the presumed death of her parents, while her husband, a former US Marine and combat veteran, cares for their three-year-old daughter as he fights his own battles with acute PTSD. Horrified and guilt-ridden, Jacqueline returns to Haiti in search of the proverbial closure. Unfortunately, the Haiti she left as a child twenty-five years earlier has disappeared. Her quest turns into a tornado of deception, desperation, and more death. So Jacqueline holds tightly to her daughter—,he only one who must not die."

Rezension(2): "〈a href=http://www.publishersweekly.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/pw_logo.png alt=Publisher's Weekly border=0 /〉〈/a〉: October 9, 2017 In Ulysse’s powerful novel, Jacqueline has lived outside Haiti for over two decades, but news of the 2010 earthquake upends her life. She desperately tries to reach her wealthy department store magnate parents in Port-au-Prince but each failed call further cements her assumption that they did not survive. Her husband, Kevin, a former marine with PTSD, has nothing but tenderness for her as he cares for their young daughter, Amber. Jacqueline’s pain transforms to frustration when her mother calls a month later from Miami, where they have safely been since shortly after the earthquake, a small taste of the self-involvement that curdled their relationship. Still feeling dislocated, Jacqueline begins Creole lessons with an eccentric and challenging American who lived in Haiti for years. Against her husband’s strenuous objections (which she shrugs off as an offshoot of his trauma), Jacqueline takes their daughter to Haiti. A tragic accident shortly after their arrival causes a massive fissure between Kevin and Jacqueline. As Ulysse ( Drifting ) explores grief, she moves beyond her protagonist to consider the murky motivations and emotions of other characters. This is a harrowing, thoughtful dive into the aftermath of national and personal tragedies filtered through diasporic life."

This latest work further demonstrates her refined storytelling appeal and deep connection to her homeland, Haiti. After the massive earthquake that devastated the country in 2010, Jacqueline Florestant, who long ago moved away, is riddled with worry about her parents. Already dealing with a gauntlet of emotions as the mother of a three-year-old, wife of a U.S. marine dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder, and teacher to underprivileged students, she returns to Haiti only to find a land she hardly recognizes, one that's vastly different from the place she left and now devastated by Mother Nature. VERDICT A captivating portrait of a woman plagued with worry about family and homeland, this beautifully written novel recalls Toni Morrison's Paradise.
