Don't Fall in Love, Sam

In this unfiltered collection of essays, Morris fearlessly confronts the complexities of personal history with raw honesty. With each page, he unveils profound and witty revelations, navigating through the emotional landscapes of estrangement, elite performing arts education, Berlin hedonism, and the rollercoaster of love and lovelessness. Morris paints a vivid portrait exhuming the past, revisiting violences endured, often through a darkly comic lens, in this compelling exploration of the human experience.

Pieces of a Boy

When Brock Sinclair awakens in a hospital in Colonial Philadelphia with a head injury, the challenges the recent college dropout faces are like nothing he could have imagined in 21st century Texas. While wrestling with the confusion of his predicament, Brock must fend off the archaic medical practices of the 18th century if he is to survive. Fortunately, a young intern befriends Brock, despite his unfathomable tales of life in 2029 and his extraordinary skills. Their relationship expands to include the intern's family and provides Brock both hope and assimilation into the culture. Brock quickly learns that his high-tech skills of the 21st century are useless in the manual society he finds himself. However, he's a quick study, learning much more than he teaches among those he encounters. Some character lessons will last him a lifetime. Ben Franklin, one of the greatest minds of the 18th century, eventually listens to Brock's plight and, after seeing the evidence of his claims, considers joining a pursuit of answers. But even Brock is not optimistic a way home is possible.

Spain is the most popular holiday destination for British tourists, and the most popular destination for emigrating Brits. The book highlights the negative and positive British involvement in the Spanish stray dog problem, and also shows how the issue is being addressed by rescue organisations and volunteers. With a firsthand account of finding a sick and uncared for stray on the side of the road, and details of the specific nature of many of the Spanish breeds and hunting pastimes, this unique book reveals a little known face of British and Spanish culture with inside knowledge and insight from all levels. From the Spanish hunting culture to the British tourist culture, a chain of responsibility for the stray dog problem exists that crosses borders and societies. Included are case studies and photos of all aspects of the rescue world, showing just how much can be done with the will and motivation.
