Wager, Adele Elise Williams’s raucous debut, celebrates the fearlessness and determination that can be wrested from strife. Early on, Williams confronts multiple challenges, both personal and communal, including persistent childhood anxieties and stunning neighborhood tragedies (“Ray down the street hung / himself like just-bought bananas needing time”). In the working-class communities she moves among, the poet tangles with her perceived failures as a wayward daughter, recovering addict, and skeptical scholar as she buries friends and lovers along the way. Self-possession is so hard-won in the southern gothic world of Williams’s poems, no wonder the speaker here is so roaringly audacious while often taking relish in getting close to the edge: “Sometimes God says YAHTZEE and I know this means / someone has won but someone has lost too — a holy man / is a gambling man, and that God of ours, / he takes bets after all.” Through it all, Williams pays homage to her lineage of resilient “beast women” and defiantly resists any constraint as she prods her own limits.
The English Renaissance and the Far East

The English Renaissance and the Far East

Adele Lee

Fairleigh Dickinson University Press
2019

The English Renaissance and the Far East: Cross-Cultural Encounters is an original and timely examination of cultural encounters between Britain, China, and Japan. It challenges accepted, Anglocentric models of East-West relations and offers a radical reconceptualization of the English Renaissance, suggesting it was not so different from current developments in an increasingly Sinocentric world, and that as China, in particular, returns to a global center-stage that it last occupied pre-1800, a curious and overlooked synergy exists between the early modern and the present. Prompted by the current eastward tilt in global power, in particular towards China, Adele Lee examines cultural interactions between Britain and the Far East in both the early modern and postmodern periods. She explores how key encounters with and representations of the Far East are described in early modern writing, and demonstrates how work of that period, particularly Shakespeare, has a special power today to facilitate encounters between Britain and East Asia. Readers will find the past illuminating the present and vice versa in a book that has at its heart resonances between Renaissance and present-day cultural exchanges, and which takes a cyclical, “long-view” of history to offer a new, innovative approach to a subject of contemporary importance.

Jerusha un'orfana che a diciotto anni ancora vive in istituto perch nessuno ha mai voluto adottarla. intelligente e dotata di un talento fuori dal comune per la parola scritta. Da sempre sola, al contrario delle sue coetanee, non vede la vita attraverso un paio di lenti rosa e romantiche ma nel suo reale cinismo e disincanto che ha sviluppato in lei un'ironia pungente e una sagacia al vetriolo. Ormai arresa a dover lasciare l'orfanotrofio per superati limiti di et si prepara ad abbandonare il suo sogno pi grande: quello di diventare una brillante giornalista. Sola, giovane e senza denaro non pu certo permettersi di frequentare un buon corso universitario. Ma il destino le riserva una sorpresa inaspettata... o meglio un inaspettato benefattore che, improvvisamente, decide di prendersi in carico lei e la sua istruzione. Un regalo piovuto dal cielo che richiede solamente un obbligo: quello di inviare settimanalmente al suo benefattore, tramite uno sconosciuto indirizzo e-mail, una lettera sotto forma di articolo giornalistico dove lo informa dei suoi progressi scolastici ed educativi. Unico limite: lei non dovr mai cercare di scoprire chi sia in realt il suo inaspettato benefattore di cui non conosce nemmeno il nome. Una proposta che per un'orfana sola al mondo e con poche speranze di ambire a una vita migliore non pu essere rifiutata. Forse la possibilit di realizzare il suo sogno pi grande, forse la possibilit di avere una rivalsa sull'ingratitudine del fato. Jerusha si ritrova cos a frequentare una prestigiosa e costosa universit e si impegna a rispettare le regole fissate anche se in lei forte il desiderio di poter ringraziare colui che le ha concesso una chance di cambiare la sua esistenza. Riconoscente alla buona sorte e al suo inaspettato benefattore, le lettere che avrebbero dovuto essere a cadenza settimanale aumentano sia di numero che di intensit cominciando a narrare tutti gli aspetti della sua vita, oltre ai progressi scolastici. Un rapporto epistolare che dura mesi ma che a senso unico. Jerusha scrive ma non riceve mai nemmeno un cenno di risposta. Cos una sera, poco lucida per la stanchezza e la febbre alta, la ragazza invia una lettera al suo benefattore dai toni accusatori e polemici oltre che pregna di tristezza e frustrazione. Una lettera che, lei si aspetta, come tutte le precedenti non avr mai una risposta. Invece, inaspettatamente, arriva una risposta dal suo benefattore, una risposta che cambia tutti gli equilibri del loro rapporto...AVVISO AI LETTORI. Questo romanzo un omaggio alla scrittrice Jean Webster e, anche se la vicenda frutto della fantasia dell'autrice, doveroso avvisare che il libro una rivisitazione di uno dei grandi successi di questa scrittrice, precisamente la storia liberamente tratta da Daddy-Long-Legs (conosciuto in Italia con il titolo di Pap Gambalunga) di cui l'autrice ha volutamente mantenuto i nomi delle persone, dei luoghi e delle istituzioni oltre all'idea originale della trama anche se riadattata e modificata.

E se Babbo Natale esistesse davvero? e se non fosse il dolce vecchietto che tutti pensano, ma un sexy schianto? magari pronto a farvi vivere un Natale decisamente piccante?Babbo Natale esiste. Questa l'unica certezza che ha Faith Snow, giornalista di New York che, finalmente, dopo anni di stupidi e poco importanti articoletti per la testata per cui lavora, si ritrova per le mani una notizia bomba: non solo Babbo Natale esiste e lei ha scoperto il suo laboratorio al Polo Nord, ma anche il segreto che nessuno mai riuscito a svelare: come riesce Babbo Natale a consegnare regali in tutto il mondo in una sola notte. E come pu una giornalista che punta alla prima pagina farsi scappare una simile opportunit ? non pu assolutamente perdere l'occasione. Cos , nonostante il fermo divieto del suo capo, decide di intraprendere le sue personali ricerche per raccogliere prove e scrivere la sua storia. Ma il piano che ha studiato non va per il verso giusto e lei si ritrova, senza volerlo, in viaggio per una destinazione sconosciuta in Polo Nord dove scoprir un'inaspettata verit su una delle figure pi amate da grandi e piccini, sul dolce vecchietto dalla barba bianca che ogni notte della vigilia vola per l'intero globo a portare doni ai bimbi che lo attendono pieni di speranza e di fiducia anche se, in realt , nessuno di loro lo ha mai visto veramente.Faith si ritrover prigioniera di un mondo incantato, popolato da elfi e magia, dove scoprir che Babbo Natale non ha decisamente l'aspetto che la pubblicit ci ha sempre propinato e, come se non bastasse, che Babbo Natale molto, ma molto pi umano di quanto si possa immaginare.AVVISO AI LETTORI: Mi sembra d'obbligo spiegare ai lettori il perch ho deciso di scrivere un romance ironico proprio sulla figura di Babbo Natale, ma tranquilli mi serviranno pochi punti per farlo. Primo punto: io credo fermamente nel Natale e in Babbo Natale (scrivo ancora la letterina ogni anno). Secondo punto: questo romanzo nato casualmente da un sogno che ho fatto tempo fa e che mi ha ispirato questo libro natalizio un po' alternativo. Terzo punto, ma non meno importante: ho deciso di creare un Babbo Natale che si discosta dall'immaginario collettivo assolutamente non per screditare l'immagine generale che il mondo ha di Babbo Natale ma semplicemente perch trovavo divertente dare una spiegazione diversa dalle solite alle domande che il mondo si pone da sempre in merito alla notte pi magica dell'anno. Perci non me ne vogliano i tradizionalisti ma spero che questa storia sia intrigante, sexy e divertente e, perch no, che dia ai lettori un motivo in pi per aspettare Babbo Natale la notte della vigilia.Tutti i libri di Adele Ross sono disponibili su Amazon in versione cartacea ed ebook (anche in lettura gratuita con abbonamento KindleUnlimited)
