The Dark Matter of Children’s 'Fantastika' Literature
Chloe Germaine
BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2023

Following the material turn in the humanities, this book brings perspectives from science and ecology into dialogue with children’s fiction written and published in the UK and the USA in the 21st century. It develops the concept of entanglement, which originated in 20th-century quantum physics but has been applied to cultural critique, through a reading of Fantastika literature. Surveying a wide-ranging scope of literary texts, this book covers the gothic, fantasy, the Weird, and other forms of speculative fiction to argue that Fantastika positions entanglement as an ethical imperative that transforms our imaginative relationship with materiality. In so doing, it synthesizes perspectives from a similarly diverse range of areas, including ecology, physics, anthropology, and literary studies, to examine the storied matter of children’s Fantastika as ground from which we might begin to imagine an as-yet-unrealised future that addresses the problems of our present.
Experience, Identity & Epistemic Injustice within Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries

How are the identities of women shaped by religious disciplinary processes in Magdalene laundries and how do women re-engage with their sense of self after leaving the institutions? Chloë K. Gott situates these questions within the current cultural climate in which the institutions now sit, considering how they fit into Ireland’s present as well as its past.This book represents the first significant secondary analysis to be conducted of 81 oral history interviews recorded as part of the Government of Ireland Collaborative Research project, ‘Magdalene Institutions: Recording an Archival and Oral History’, funded by the Irish Research Council. These were taken with women formerly incarcerated in these institutions, as well as others associated with this history.Grounded in qualitative analysis of this archive, the book is structured around the voices and words of survivors themselves. With a strong focus on how the experience of being incarcerated in a Magdalene laundry impacted on the gendered religious selves of the women, this book tracks the process of entering, working in and leaving a laundry, explored through the lens of epistemic injustice.

The first collection of Chloe Xtina's plays, BIG PEOPLE, chronicles human behavior through magical realism, dark comedy, and the absolute bizarre via the lens of Margaret Mead's anthropology. Xtina is loud-mouthed, vivacious, and bold as she tackles the myth of female hysteria, sexual assault on campus, and fascism in a postmodern world. But through the grit and raunch, Xtina finds something poignant and fascinatingly beautiful on human empathy: where it can begin and where it can sharply end. BIG PEOPLE is a visual and visceral ride through dysfunction, truth, and perspective

TO BE MORE THAN September 28th, 2018, I discovered there was a blood clot in my internal jugular vein. Within that same week, I was suddenly unable to use my voice. To hear me, you had to lean in close. You still have too... During this time, I made the decision to start documenting this experience through my outlet of choice, writing, and specifically, but not without occasional straying, poetry. I wasn't sure that I would ever feel comfortable sharing this experience in full, but here I am. Here we are. Discovering the endless ways in which our voices can be heard. Ways in which we are more than. Though this book is a chronological documentation of the first six months of living with a whisper, the underlying tone is that of adaption, observation, dedication, and perhaps more than anything else, community.
