Reviews"Elegant, unsettling and wildly original, InThis Way I Was Savedreads like a coming-of-age-story with the heart of a nasty thriller."-- Gillian Flynn, author ofSharp Objects and Dark Places, "InThis Way I Was Savedgave me chills, not only for its dead-on depiction of the searing loneliness of a hermetically sealed mind, but because it is so thrillingly well-executed. A superb first novel." -- Kate Christensen, author ofTroubleandThe Great Man, "More than brothers, less than friends, linked for life: the relationship between Daniel and Luke is unique in the annals of literature, and will keep you guessing right until the book reaches its inevitable conclusion. I haven't been this entertained by a debut novel in years." -- Dale Peck, author ofWhat We LostandBody Surfing, "InThis Way I Was Savedis a frightening, gripping tale about a sadistic secret sharer, a shadow self who is ready to devour its host. This is one of the most fascinating and controlled first novels I've ever read -- a sustained performance that hypnotizes and terrifies the reader." -- Edmund White, author of A Boy's Own Story, "DeLeeuw's debut novel is a riveting exploration of the dark side of self....Suspenseful and terrifying, this tale about one's shadow self running rampant is highly recommended."--Library Journal(starred review), "In this original, inventive debut, Brian DeLeeuw delivers a suspenseful and surprisingly tender psychological thriller that gives physical shape to the torment of isolation." -- Helen Schulman, author ofA Day At The Beach, "DeLeeuw debuts with a strange tale seething with disturbing psychological overtones.... Hitchcock would have loved the premise."--Kirkus

SynopsisThe Grey Knights is the one force that has any chance of stopping a daemonic infestation. Armed with psychically charged force weapons, storm bolters, and an unshakable faith in the Emperor, there is nothing more daunting for a Daemon to face., Within the framework of Chomsky'e(tm)s Principles and Parameters Theory and the Minimalist Program, this work presents a detailed discussion of the different types of wh-question formation and relativization strategies in Cape Verdean Creole (Santiago variety), especially focusing on wh-movement of PPs. The book explores the Copy Theory of Movement, discussing a defective copy construction involving wh-movement of PPs which poses interesting theoretical questions as to how the defective copy is to be generated and form a chain with the relevant displaced wh-constituent. It is also shown that the defective copy strategy ([wh[PL] 'e¦ el [3SG]]) is distinct from resumption ([wh[PL] 'e¦ es [3PL]]) due to some properties of PPs in Cape Verdean Creole and to the nature of the pronominal element that occurs at the foot of the wh-chain. This book relates well with those on Cape Verdean Creole and highlights the need to look more closely at deeper syntactic issues in more creole languages, inspiring further comparative work amongst creole linguists.
