Synopsis Leak by : Max Holland
Through the shadowy persona of "Deep Throat," FBI official Mark Felt became as famous as the Watergate scandal his "leaks" helped uncover. Best known through Hal Holbrook's portrayal in the film version of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein's All the President's Men, Felt was regarded for decades as a conscientious but highly secretive whistleblower who shunned the limelight. Yet even after he finally revealed his identity in 2005, questions about his true motivations persisted. Max Holland has found the missing piece of that Deep Throat puzzle--one that's been hidden in plain sight all along. He reveals for the first time in detail what truly motivated the FBI's number-two executive to become the most fabled secret source in American history. In the process, he directly challenges Felt's own explanations while also demolishing the legend fostered by Woodward and Bernstein's bestselling account. Holland critiques all the theories of Felt's motivation that have circulated over the years, including notions that Felt had been genuinely upset by White House law-breaking or had tried to defend and insulate the FBI from the machinations of President Nixon and his Watergate henchmen. And, while acknowledging that Woodward finally disowned the "principled whistleblower" image of Felt in The Secret Man, Holland shows why that famed journalist's latest explanation still falls short of the truth. Holland showcases the many twists and turns to Felt's story that are not widely known, revealing not a selfless official acting out of altruistic patriotism, but rather a career bureaucrat with his own very private agenda. Drawing on new interviews and oral histories, old and just-released FBI Watergate files, papers of the Watergate Special Prosecution Force, presidential tape recordings, and Woodward and Bernstein's Watergate-related papers, he sheds important new light on both Felt's motivations and the complex and often problematic relationship between the press and government officials. Fast-paced and scrupulously fact-checked, Leak resolves the mystery residing at the heart of Mark Felt's actions. By doing so, it radically revises our understanding of America's most famous presidential scandal.

Synopsis Leaking Dreams by : J J Loubser
Every heart harbours dreams yearning to breach the bounds of reality, cradling a cosmos brimming with worlds and suns. Mastering the art of consistency and expression is a journey of years, demanding discipline to morph into habit. Yet, imagine a breakthrough where Jason’s invention makes this possible in a single day. Picture a world where others can not only see and comprehend the universe within you but also dance to the rhythm of your soul, under skies echoing your favourite melodies, with every heartbeat in harmony. In an era long lost, connectivity was innate, solitude unknown, and peace reigned supreme. A time devoid of corruption, brimming with life, magic, creativity, and joy, where the inner worlds remained dreams, unattainable – until now. But what if this power falls into the wrong hands? What if the dreams that seep into reality are those better left unexplored? Who then holds the reins? Prepare yourself for an odyssey exploring the essence of humanity, where the souls of men and women clash in this monumental struggle. A narrative rich with dreamers, each bearing their own tales, unexpected turns, concealed mysteries, enchantments, profound emotions, obstacles, and surfacing sentiments. Encounter a novel antagonist, Collider, a reflection of the adversities we face daily, and envision a new champion, the embodiment of our aspirations. A CIA agent on the trail of Collider, amid chaos and ruin, stumbles upon discoveries beyond her wildest dreams.

Synopsis Fantasies of music in nostalgic medievalism by : Helen Dell
In the period between the Second World War and the present, there has been an extraordinary rise in the production of medievalist fantasy literature and film. This has been accompanied by the revival, performance and invention of medieval music. In this enterprise modern fantasies of the Middle Ages have exercised great influence. Fantasies of music in nostalgic medievalism shows how music, medievalism and nostalgia have been woven together in the fantasies of writers and readers, musicians, musicologists, directors and listeners, film-makers and film-goers. This book studies the ways in which three fields of creative activity inspired by the medieval – musical performance, literature, cinema and their reception – have worked together to produce and sustain, for some, the fantasy of a long-lost, long-mourned paradisal home.

Synopsis Work That Body by : Jamie Hakim
Work That Body: Male Bodies in Digital Culture explores the recent rise in different types of men using digital media to sexualise their bodies. It argues that the male body has become a key site in contemporary culture where neoliberalism’s hegemony has been both secured and contested since 2008. It does this by looking at four different case studies: the celebrity male nude leak; the rise of young men sharing images of their muscular bodies on social media; RuPaul's Drag Race body transformational tutorial, and the rise of chemsex. It finds that on the one hand digital media has enabled men to transform their bodies into tools of value-creation in economic contexts where the historical means they have relied on to create value have diminished. On the other it has also allowed them to use their bodies to form intimate collective bonds during a moment when competitive individualism continued to be the privileged mode of being in the world. It therefore offers a unique contribution not only to the field of digital cultural studies but also to the growing cultural studies literature attempting to map the historical contradictions of the austerity moment.
