Mönster i grönt. Graham Greene och 1900-talslitteraturens villkor
Oscar Jansson
Ellerströms Förlag
2021
nidottu
Historieskrivningen om Graham Greene utgår ofta från en handfull av hans romaner, trots att han under sju decennier också skrev noveller, essäer, dramatik, barnböcker, filmmanus – och dessutom var en tongivande kritiker och förläggare. Hur blev det så? Hur kom ett livslångt författarskap att sammanfattas med några boktitlar? I Mönster i grönt utforskar Oscar Jansson hur förståelsen av Greenes författarskap tagit form, från debuten på 1920-talet fram till vår tid. Bilden som framträder visar en mångfacetterad författare som på en gång gynnats och begränsats av komplexiteten i 1900-talslitteraturens villkor: av bokmarknadens internationalisering, av ett alltmer varierat medialt landskap och av litteraturkritikens professionalisering.

Shortlisted for the 2022 ReLit AwardA professor of English literature writes the autobiography of his fantasy alter-ego, wanton movie star Gloria Grahame, while his own sexual desires go frustrated.Denton Moulton — a shy, effeminate male professor — lives inside his head, where he is really a long-dead movie star: the glamorous Gloria Grahame, from the golden age of Hollywood. Professor Moulton is desperate to reveal Gloria’s shocking secret before he dies. Does he have the right to tell this woman’s story? Who, in fact, has the right to tell anyone’s story at all?A scandalous, humorous novel of taboo desires and repression, I, Gloria Grahame alternates between Gloria’s imagined life with her film-director husband, Nicholas Ray, director of Rebel Without a Cause, and Denton’s increasingly frustrated real-life attempts to produce his own work of art: an all-male drag production of Shakespeare’s Venus and Adonis. The novel takes us from high-strung film sets to dark bars and the puritanical offices of government arts granting agencies, where Denton runs up against the sternest warnings that he may not, in fact, imagine himself as someone else, even in art.A RARE MACHINES BOOK
A moving biography of Kenneth Grahame, author of the children's classic The Wind in the Willows, and of the vision of English pastoral life that inspired it. During his regular days in London, Kenneth Grahame sat behind a mahogany desk as Secretary of the Bank of England; on weekends he retired to the house in the country that he shared with his fanciful wife, Elspeth, and their fragile son, Alistair, and took lengthy walks along the Thames in Berkshire, "tempted by the treasures of hedge and ditch; the rapt surprise of the first lords-and-ladies, the rustle of a field-mouse, the splash of a frog." The result of these pastoral wanderings was his masterful creation of The Wind in the Willows, the enduring classic of children's literature; a cautionary tale for adult readers; a warning of the fragility of the English countryside; and an expression of fear at threatened social changes that, in the aftermath of the World War I, became a reality. Like its remarkable author, the book balances maverick tendencies with conservatism. Kenneth Grahame was an Edwardian pantheist whose work has a timeless appeal, an escapist whose withdrawal from reality took the form of time travel into his own past.
His Message Would Be Heard Around The WorldNo one guessed he would change the world. A simple country farm boy once prayed that God would use him…and prayed…and prayed. And God did use him, beyond what he ever imagined. He grew into a man who would lead millions of people to Christ, a man who would be known as the greatest evangelist of our time. Come read the story of Billy Graham and follow his life from his days as a boy, who wasn’t so great in school, to a man who would teach the world the greatest lesson of all: how to know and live for Christ.
Ruth Bell Graham is known as the wife of evangelist Billy Graham. It was Ruth who influenced Billy, as his most trusted life-partner. In Ruth, a Portrait, we meet this fascinating and remarkable woman. Brimming with anecdotes, this is a breathtaking journey, with stops at many of this century's epoch-making events. The childhood years of the future Mrs. Billy Graham were spent light-years away--in the China of the 1920s and 1930s. The daughter of medical missionaries, she and her family were caught in a crucible of unspeakable hardship; in addition to pestilence and plague, there was the unstable political and military turmoil surrounding the Nationalist government, the Communists, and the Japanese invaders. These hazardous realities shaped Ruth Bell and her family, a family inured to difficulties, but buoyed up by their deep belief in God's abiding will. Virtually raised by the Grahams, the author is a repository of Ruth Bell Graham's stories and has seen firsthand the spirit of this courageous woman. Patricia Cornwell not only gives readers a full, rounded, and intimate portrait of Ruth Bell Graham, but also insight into the life of the Graham family and particularly Billy Graham.
The Last Refuge of the Mt. Graham Red Squirrel

When the University of Arizona announced plans to build observatories on Mt. Graham, atop the Pinaleno Mountains, the construction was seen as a potential threat to an isolated species found only on this sky island. The Mt. Graham red squirrel was declared endangered? by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Legal action required the university to provide funds for research and monitoring the Mt Graham red squirrel. This book is derived from a symposium on the Mt. Graham red squirrel and offers a comprehensive picture of the ecology of this red squirrel and the impacts on its mountain home. Forty contributors detail studies conducted to understand the natural history of the creature and the challenges and changing ecological conditions on Mt. Graham. Each chapter tells a unique story that contributes to the mosaic of natural history knowledge about the endangered Mt. Graham red squirrel. They reflect diverse viewpoints on the problems of conserving the habitats and populations of the squirrel, showing how it was complicated by perspectives ranging from Native Americans? concern over traditional lands to astronomers hope for a better view of space, and by issues ranging from forestry practices to climate change. Studies of such factors as squirrel middens, seed hoarding, and nest sites provide definitive research on the animal.Ongoing censuses continue to track the squirrel's population trends, and both Forest Service and Arizona Department of Transportation activities continue to be scrutinized by interested parties to determine their impact. This book represents an authoritative overview of this still-endangered species and its habitat.

The Complete Scottish Sketches of R.B. Cunninghame Graham
EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY PRESS

sidottu
Cunninghame Graham was a famous and hugely influential figure in late 19th and early 20th century Scottish politics and literature. He published 34 books during his lifetime, equally divided between histories (mostly of South America), and anthologies of his impressionistic sketches of South America, Morocco, and Scotland, the large majority of which had been published previously in literary magazines between 1896 and 1933. For the first time, the editors have compiled his entire Scottish oeuvre chronologically, into one volume, and set them in their historical and social contexts, which explores and contextualises the works themselves, and traces Graham's development as a much-admired literary artist and social documentarist. One of the editors is a Cunninghame Graham family member, and the family historian, who has provided insights and peculiar details, unavailable to previous biographers, which hopefully provides added depth and understanding to Graham's works.
