The Nonesuch is the name of one of Georgette Heyer’s most famous novels. It means a person or thing without equal, and Georgette Heyer is certainly that. Her historical works inspire a fiercely loyal, international readership and are championed by literary figures such as A. S. Byatt and Stephen Fry. Georgette Heyer, History, and Historical Fiction brings together an eclectic range of chapters from scholars all over the world to explore the contexts of Heyer’s career. Divided into four parts – gender; genre; sources; and circulation and reception – the volume draws on scholarship on Heyer and her contemporaries to show how her work sits in a chain of influence, and why it remains pertinent to current conversations on books and publishing in the twenty-first century. Heyer’s impact on science fiction is accounted for, as are the milieu she was writing in, the many subsequent works that owe Heyer’s writing a debt, and new methods for analysing these enduring books. From the gothic to data science, there is something for everyone in this volume; a celebration of Heyer’s ‘nonesuch’ status amongst historical novelists, proving that she and her contemporary women writers deserve to be read (and studied) as more than just guilty pleasures.

George William Kelly wrote this collection of eight childrens stories over the lifetime of his daughter, Georgette. He named the heroines after her. By the time he published the collection, Georgette had reached the age of "sweet sixteen." Consequently, some of the stories aim at picture book readers and some at teenage readers. They reflect Georgettes growing older and older. The stories range from how Santa Christina (Mrs. Santa Claus) saved Christmas by helping Santa Claus deliver the Christmas toys, to how Georgette discovered there are 32 tooth pixies instead of one tooth fairy, to how Georgettes family developed the idea of a "grand unified theory of the universe" from apples in their kitchen fruit bowl. As a gift for Georgettes sixteenth birthday, Kelly combined his eight favorite stories into a print-on-demand paperback book (and an e-book) published by the Xlibris Corp. Like many childrens books, this one offers food for thought to adults as well as to children. It has no illustrations, but the author believes children will draw their own pictures. He hopes that some of the stories may be republished later as individual picture books. Georgettes Apple Bivortex Theory of Everything. "This story presents a model that shows how everything in the universe evolves," Kelly says. "Modern scientists have searched and searched for this model but have failed to see it. Great scientists like Rene Descartes, Isaac Newton, Michael Faraday, James Clark Maxwell, Max Planck, Albert Einstein, and Niels Bohr circled close around this model, but even those giants failed to see it." Georgettes bivortex theory evolved over sixteen years. Georgette, her Mommy, and her Daddy were seeking one, single answer to a young girls unending questions about everything. Their amateur, commonsense approach led them further and further into the realms of astronomy, cosmology, mathematics, physics, and the history of science. Although they could not speak the various scientific "dialects," they could comprehend general scientific speculation about the universe. They could also ponder the detailed pictures of the universe provided by space-age astronomy. Just as a small child saw the real truth in the old fairy tale about the emperors new clothes, so Georgettes scientifically unsophisticated family saw in the apple-like shapes of certain space photographs a new model for a theory of everything: a grand unified theory of the universe. As far as the family knows, this model never occurred to the scientists who have striven to harmonize red shifts, the Big Bang, the expanding universe, black holes, wormholes, gravity, electromagetism, curved space, strings, branes, quantum, matter, antimatter, dark matter, wimps, strong nuclear force, weak nuclear force, Bose-Einstein condensates, great walls, chaos theory, etc. Georgettes bivortex model takes the shape of an apple in the center of a large cloud of particles. It begins when two or more particles eddy around each other and form a tube. This rotating tube of particles sucks more and more cloud particles down the vortex at each end of the tube. The opposing helical streams of particles collide at the tubes center. The particles split, ricochet, and radiate outward to form an equatorial bulge and equatorial disk. Nearly all these particles are drawn back eventually toward the rotating tube. They rise in arched pathways northward and southward from the equatorial bulge and disk. Some return quickly to the walls of the tube. Others return leisurely via either the north pole vortex or the south pole vortex. The particles recycle along the lines of the bivortex field, just as iron filings follow the lines of a magnets electromagnetic field. At the extreme circumference of the disk, some particles leave the system altogether and radiate into space. Meanwhile, some particles pass the tubes center-point and follow the tubes axis in
