Book excerpt: Four tenant families, some black and some white, lived on the farm owned by author John Keith’s family as a child. Although no one who grew up on the farm except for him was active in the civil rights movement, in Canebrake Beach he imagines what would happened to members of black and white families as they progress from the Jim Crow era and beyond. The other short stories in the book explore friendships, relationships, and conflicts of white and black people in the South at various intervals over a span of seventy years.

Download or read book Nicaraguan Gringa written by John Keith and published by NewSouth Books. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After her father's death, Sarah Rutledge returns from North Carolina to Nicaragua in an attempt to prevent the family's property from being expropriated by the Sandinista government. The novel begins with Sarah's childhood on the coffee farm where her British-American family has lived for almost a century. Natural disasters, civil conflicts, and political changes force her to ponder who belongs in Nicaragua, just where she belongs, to whom she belongs, and what belongs to her. Author John Keith's life was significantly shaped by two social transformations of the twentieth century, the civil rights movement in the United States and the new vision of mission and development by churches in Central America. In Canebrake Beach: A Novella and Four Short Stories (2012) he reflected on the relationships of black and white people in the South over a span of seventy years. In Nicaraguan Gringa: Claiming a Home, he explores the evolving relationships of nations and their citizens as ruling regimes ebb and flow.

Book Synopsis Elemental Narratives by : Enrico Cesaretti
Download or read book Elemental Narratives written by Enrico Cesaretti and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past century, the Italian landscape has undergone exceedingly rapid transformations, shifting from a mostly rural environment to a decidedly modern world. This changing landscape is endowed with a narrative agency that transforms how we understand our surroundings. Situated at the juncture of Italian studies and ecocriticism and following the recent “material turn” in the environmental humanities, Elemental Narratives outlines an original cultural and environmental map of the bel paese. Giving equal weight to readings of fiction, nonfiction, works of visual art, and physical sites, Enrico Cesaretti investigates the interconnected stories emerging from both human creativity and the expressive eloquence of “glocal” materials, such as sulfur, petroleum, marble, steel, and asbestos, that have helped make and, simultaneously, “un-make” today’s Italy, affecting its socio-environmental health in multiple ways. Embracing the idea of a decentralized agency that is shared among human and nonhuman entities, Cesaretti suggests that engaging with these entangled discursive and material texts is a sound and revealing ecocritical practice that promises to generate new knowledge and more participatory, affective responses to environmental issues, both in Italy and elsewhere. Ultimately, he argues that complementing quantitative, data-based information with insights from fiction and nonfiction, the arts, and other humanistic disciplines is both desirable and crucial if we want to modify perceptions and attitudes, increase our awareness and understanding, and, in turn, develop more sustainable worldviews in the era of the Anthropocene. Elegantly written and convincingly argued, this book will appeal broadly to scholars and students working in the fields of environmental studies, comparative literatures, ecocriticism, environmental history, and Italian studies.

Book Synopsis UNDERWORLDS MAGAZINE NO 1 by : Thomas Deja
Download or read book UNDERWORLDS MAGAZINE NO 1 written by Thomas Deja and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNDERWORLDS is a tri-annual paperback magazine that seeks to create a bridge between crime fiction (especially, but not neccesarily exclusively, of the noir school) and horror fiction. Because of its general air of emotional and psychological darkness, as well as its frequent themes of hopelessness, betrayal and passions gone wrong, the crime fiction of such writers as Jim Thompson, Cornell Woolrich and David Goodis shares a lot of resonance with horror fiction (some of the above referenced writers have produced what could arguably called horror fiction in the past, like Thompson's ending to THE GETAWAY and his novel THE KILLER INSIDE ME). UNDERWORLDS (a double edged title, as it has different-yet-similar meanings in both crime and horror fiction) seeks to allow writers the opportunity to explore the nexus between these two genres, and gives readers of both genres a glimpse into the world of the other.
