ex: Harry +Potter will return results with the word 'Potter'.
-
If you use '-' in front of a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.
ex: Harry -Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
AND
If you use 'AND' between two words, then both of those words will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry AND Potter will return results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
OR
If you use 'OR' between two words, then bth of those words may or may not be present in the search results.
ex: Harry OR Potter will return results with just 'Harry', results with just 'Potter' and results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
NOT
If you use 'NOT' before a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.

Placing '""' around words will perform a phrase search. The search results will contain those words in that order.
ex: "Harry Potter" will return any results with 'Harry Potter' in them, but not 'Potter Harry'.
*
Using '*' in a word will perform a wildcard search. The '*' signifies any number of characters. Searches can not start with a wildcard.
ex: Pot*er will return results with words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er'. In this case, 'Potter' will be a match.

'Updike is the master' Sunday Telegraph 'An awe-inspiring spectacle' Guardian The spellbinding sequel to THE WITCHES OF EASTWICK More than three decades have passed since the witches of Eastwick - Alexandra, Jane, and Sukie - weaved their wicked spell on the sleepy Rhode Island town. Since then the three divorcees have left, remarried, and become widows. Meeting up again, they decide to go back to Eastwick one last time. But what enchantments will they find? There may no longer be a diabolical Darryl Van Horne, but memory - as much as magic - continues to haunt the town. For among the familiar streets, where the witches enjoyed their status as free, lusty and empowered women, there are those who remember them, and wish them ill . . . 'There are too many delightful twists and surprises to give away. Vintage Updike' Sunday Herald 'Crammed with acute observation of the changes in the texture of American life and culture' Spectator 'Funny, yet also terrifying' Irish Times
