Uncle
Uncle is the story of Joe and his Great Uncle Henry. Suddenly banished to spend a summer with this unknown relative, Joe finds not the ‘mad’ man his mother predicted, but his first true boyhood friend. Over the next ten years Joe and Uncle enjoy superb summer holidays of fun, adventure, learning, inspiration and exploration, which act as a buffer to the other events happening in Joe’s life; the death of his father, his mother’s remarriage and his long, lonely school years.
The advent of adulthood brings Joe the unwelcome realisation that while he has grown up, Uncle never has and maybe his mother’s prediction of madness is right after all. After several years of strained, infrequent contact between them, the tables are turned, and it is Henry who now needs the care and support that he once offered to a lonely boy.
This is a story of the struggle to understand and accept individual differences, the people and events that shape us, and the meaning of true friendship.

An Enchantment Overlooked
Looking at Andrea Mantegna’s Parnassus in the Louvre, one might ask:
• Why does criticism point to Mercury instead of Perseus as the character holding the reins of the horse?
• Why does Pegasus have a precious breastplate and a curious goat beard?
• Who, really, is that delightful couple who dominates the scene below and what does it represent?The author tackles these and countless other questions with compelling arguments, grounded in a painstaking examination of classical tradition and mythology. The result is that Mantegna’s work is fully restored to us in its historical context and in all its cultural and moral values – values that, unfortunately, are often underestimated or even silenced by a largely aesthetic criticism, aimed at highlighting shape, structure, colour, etc., instead of emphasising the iconographic and symbolic aspects of the images.
The author also takes on such Renaissance masterpieces as Botticelli’s Primavera, Bronzino’s Allegory of the Triumph of Venus and Caravaggio’s Amor Vincit Omnia.
Readers will find themselves drawn into the author’s passionate and thorough research, eager to share his exciting discoveries.
