Wake by Rebecca Hall6/8/2023 Part graphic novel, part memoir, it is a powerful reminder that while the past is gone, we still live in its wake. Strikingly illustrated in black and white, Wake explores both a personal and a global legacy.

Beneath both is Hall’s own tale: of a life lived in the shadow of slavery and its consequences. With in-depth archival research and a measured use of historical imagination, she constructs the likely pasts of women rebels who fought for freedom on slave ships bound to America, as well as the stories of women who led slave revolts in Colonial New York. In Wake Rebecca Hall, a historian, a granddaughter of slaves, and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery, tells their story. They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas. Women warriors planned and led slave revolts on slave ships during the passage across the Atlantic. The Guardian calls it a “must-read”, Angela Davis and Donna Haraway praise it, and we hope that this graphic novel and inquiry will find many readers: “Wake” from Rebecca Hall.

In 1911-12, he worked as an unpaid lay assistant to a vicar in the poor country parish of Dunsden, where he taught Bible classes, led prayer meetings, and attended missionary gatherings. Like his mother, to whom he was quite close, Owen was religious and even considered pursuing a career in the church. Educated at the Birkenhead Institute and at Shrewsbury Technical College, Owen matriculated in 1911 but without the honors necessary to enter a university. Wilfred Edward Salter, born on March 18, 1893, in the village of Oswestry in Shropshire, England, was the eldest son of a minor railway official. Owen’s poetry portrays the grim horrors of trench warfare and the futile waste or youthful manhood.Įvents in History at the Time of the Poetry War poetry written and set in France during World War 1, 1914-18 first published in 1920. “Anthem for Doomed Youth” and Other Poems Trapped book michael northrop6/6/2023 His first young adult novel, Gentlemen, earned him a Publishers Weekly Flying Start citation, and his second, Trapped, was an Indie Next List selection.

Grania by Morgan Llywelyn6/6/2023 Morgan Llywelyn has written a rich, historically accurate, and passionate novel of divided Ireland - and of one brave woman who is Ireland herself. The story of her life is the story of Ireland's fight for solidarity and survival-but it's also the story of Grania's growing ability to love and be strong at the same time. But Grania, aided by Tigernan, her faithful (and secretly adoring) lieutenant, has no choice but to fight back. Elizabeth intends to destroy Grania's piracy and shipping empire-and so subjugate Ireland once and for all. For even as Grania rises as her clan's unofficial head and breadwinner and learns to love a man, she enters a lifelong struggle against the English forces of Queen Elizabeth - her nemesis and alter ego. Grania (Gaelic for Grace) is no ordinary female. From Morgan Llywelyn, bestselling author of Lion of Ireland and the Irish Century novels, comes the story of a magnificent, sixteenth-century heroine whose spirit and passion are the spirit and passion of Ireland itself. Here is an extraordinary novel about real-life Irish chieftain Grace O Malley. Grania is the basis of the new Broadway muscial The Pirate Queen. For five months Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs, were castaways on one of the most savage regions of the world. In October 1915, still half a continent away from their intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in ice. The object of the expedition was to cross the Antarctic overland. In 1914 Sir Ernest Shackleton and a crew of 27 men set sail for the South Atlantic on board a ship called the Endurance. |
