** The Sunday Times Best Literary Book of 2023**** A Waterstones Best Book of 2023**'All Sorts of Lives is a beautiful, fastidiously researched and fascinating exploration of Mansfield's life and work' A.L. KENNEDYRestless outsider, masher-up of form and convention, Katherine Mansfield’s career was short but dazzling. She was the only writer Virginia Woolf admitted being jealous of, yet by the 1950s was so undervalued that Elizabeth Bowen was moved to ask, 'Where is she – our missing contemporary?'In this inventive and intimate study, Claire Harman takes a fresh look at Mansfield’s life and achievements, through the form she did so much to revolutionise: the short story. Exploring ten pivotal works, we watch how Mansfield’s desire to grow as a writer pushed her art into unknown territory, and how illness sharpened her extraordinary vitality: ‘Would you not like to try all sorts of lives – one is so very small.’‘What a gift to the biographer, this life of adventure and sickness and sex and celebrity… Brilliant’ Sunday Times‘A searching, incisive and compulsive book. A lesson in how to read and connect and understand’ Sunjeev Sahota,Binding: Paperback,

New Testament study at it’s finest
Format: Hardcover
Wow, what a book. If I could only take one book as a resource to the Bible it would be this book. Comprehensive, detailed, scholarly scaled down to average comprehension, and relevant.
Did I agree with everything Dr. Wright stated? No, but this is a rock solid book that should anchor your library.
It is a an enormous book— it literally weighs 4and a half pounds. At 987 pages (889 actual text pages), it is not for the faint or weak at heart. The book literally covers everything you need to know about the New Testament in the Roman world, from history and religious backgrounds to book by book studies and concluding with textual criticism, the development of the canon and the responsibilities of the Church in living the life expounded on in the scriptures.
Very highly recommended.

Great Bible study book
Format: Hardcover
Highly recommended. Anyone who wants to get deeper into God’s Word can learn from this book. While it is not light reading, it is very readable. Cultural context is very important (the Bible was written FOR us but was written TO ancient peoples living in a different culture) and especially so in the Old Testament. This book is rich in explaining cultural context. I learned so much from reading it.

New testament in its world
Format: Hardcover
Ordered this book for my seminary class. NT wright is an excellent writer very clear but can go deep. If you're looking to know more about the writings of the New testament and how they came to be, I recommend this book.

Very Nice Resource for Church Bible Study Teachers
Format: Hardcover
Dr Wright’s book are known for their readability. This book can be read cover to cover or used as reference material on a single chapter. It does weigh 4.5 pounds probably caused by the heavy glossy paper pages. The maps and illustrations require this type of paper (I think) and there are illustrations and maps on most every page. As usual with a Wright & Byrd book, the NT is placed in a geographical and historical context that sheds light on its meaning to modern readers. If you teach this subject at your church (or just want to learn), you will benefit from the information in this book.
