No Good without Reward – Selected Writings: A Bilingual Edition

No Good without Reward – Selected Writings: A Bilingual Edition

Liubov Krichevskaya; Brian James Baer

University of Toronto Press

A female contemporary of Alexander Pushkin, Liubov Krichevskaya makes her Anglophone debut in an excellent translation of her fiction, drama, and poetry, which deftly capture women’s estate in the early nineteenth century. Krichevskaya intriguingly combines Sentimentalist preoccupations—sensibility, virtue, and men’s moral reformation through confrontation with exemplary women’s passive piety—with the uncontrollable passions and volatile hero popularized by the Byronic strain of Romanticism. Her gynocentric texts poignantly convey the stringent limitations imposed upon women’s agency by a society that paradoxically credited them with the seemingly limitless capacity to exert a civilizing influence as icons of probity. Readers acquainted with Rousseau, Richardson, and Goethe will discover familiar feminized turf, but cultivated in a Russian vein.—Helena GosciloChair and Professor of Slavic, The Ohio State University

Decadence meets gothic in Manfred Macmillan (1907), a carefully constructed tale of doppelgangers, magical intrigue, and the rootless scion of a noble house. This annotated, first-ever English translation presents an early queer novel long unavailable except in the original Czech. Author Jirí Karásek ze Lvovic (1871–1951) was a major cultural figure in his native Bohemia and cultivated ties with fellow artists from across Central Europe. In their extensive scholarly introduction, translator Carleton Bulkin and translation scholar Brian James Baer situate the novel within longer histories of gay literature, fascinations with the occult, and the cultural and linguistic politics of so-called peripheral European nations. They persuasively frame Karásek as a queer author and cultural disruptor in the fin de siècle Habsburg space. Karasék rejected Czech translations of ancient Greek writers that bowdlerized gay themes, and he personally and vigorously defended Oscar Wilde in print, both on the grounds of artistic freedom and of private morality. He also published a cycle of homoerotic poems under the title Sodom, confiscated by the Austrian authorities but republished in 1905 and repeatedly afterward. A colonized subject, a literary decadent, and a sexual outlaw, Karasék’s complex responses to his own marginalization can be traced through his fantastically strange novel trilogy Three Magicians. As the first volume in that series, Manfred Macmillan is a gorgeous, compelling, and important addition to expanding canons of LGBTQI+ literature.

Elijah's mummy has a sick brain. She suffers from mental illness, which makes her feel very sad and scared sometimes even when she doesn't need to be. Mummy cries some days; other days, she says her brain is very loud. There are times when Elijah's mummy sleeps too much, which annoys him since he wants her to come out and play. Elijah knows, though, that Mummy's brain is sick, so he tries to understand the medication and hospital visits-although he gets scared that she'll have to stay in the hospital forever. Mummy encourages Elijah to talk about his feelings because feelings, whether good or bad, are important, healthy to express, and not as scary as they seem. Parenting can be a challenge in everyday life, but what if a parent has mental illness? How do we talk to our children about it and what it means for them in their lives? Mummy's Brain Is Sick provides a safe way to start the discussion with your child in an age-appropriate way, making it less daunting while engaging both parents and kids alike.

Elaborate cinematic universes and sophisticated marketing tie-ins are commonplace in entertainment today. It's easy to forget that the transmedia trend began in 1982 with a barbarian action figure. He-Man and the other characters in Mattel's popular Masters of the Universe toy line quickly found their way into comic books, video games, multiple television series and a Hollywood film. The original animated series (1983-1985) was the first based on an action figure, and the cult classic Masters of the Universe (1987) was the first toy-inspired live-action feature film. But it wasn't easy. He-Man faced adversaries more dangerous than Skeletor: entertainment lawyers, Hollywood executives, even the Reagan administration. The heroes and villains of Eternia did more than shape the childhoods of the toy-buying public--they formed the modern entertainment landscape.

When disgraced tabloid journalist Jackson Hardy finds Madame Blue, a lonely and senile old spirit, he sees his ticket back to the top. But by manipulating the ghost into uncovering Hollywood's biggest secrets, he finds himself in the crosshairs of every celebrity whose career he destroys. After uncovering the bizarre double life of aging action star Zachary Bachman, Jr., Hardy's long-suppressed journalistic integrity begins to emerge. Finding the truth, however, will lead him into the city's gritty underbelly, and breaking through the very illusionary notion of privacy. Mixing modern wit with hard-boiled noir, and the supernatural with low-level grunt work, Bad Publicity has been called "a lively introduction to a writer with a seemingly boundless imagination." (Shawn Vestal, author of Godforsaken Idaho and Daredevils)

This is a true account. It is primarily a story about motherhood. But it is also a story about the "Ghost in the wishing well." That sentinel event in life which leads to a loss that remains as a lifelong scar. The ghost in the wishing well. The one which never will be set free as long as it's a ghost that you can't see. For surely giving up a child for adoption is akin to loosing that life as part of your life. Did the birth mother make the right decision? Would the child have a better life than the one she could have given her at the time? And the wanting. Searching for the birth mother can often be like pursuing an untamed ornithoid without cause. A wild goose chase. And frustrating. Especially if the life you have been adopted into is much like that of Annie and her hard-knock life friends. You wonder about your birth mother. 'Maybe' becomes the key word. The ship of dreams. Maybe far away. Or maybe real nearby. Betcha she's good. Why shouldn't she be? Her one mistake was giving up me And then the overarching uncertainty of outcomes: "You may find that the having is not as good as the wanting." At the end of the day this story comes to a climax amidst the maelstrom of all the competing currents of life in America. The impact is far reaching beyond the lives of the major protagonists-the birth mother and the child given up for adoption. Others engaged include spouses, children, friends and extended families of both the birthmother and the child given up for adoption. And once the yearning for contact between birthmother and adoptive child becomes hope...which becomes possibility.....and then becomes imminent. How do the participants know if they will make appropriate decisions? How do they know that the contact will be a healing process and lead to the desired goals harbored by both the birth mother and the child given up for adoption? What about the impact on the immediate family? Spouses? Siblings?But there are ripples in the current of reality which often change the direction of one's fantasy ship. These ripples often turn to surging currents which impact the direction of the journey in ways unimaginable by those involved. Follow this story which was fifty years in the making to its unexpected but powerful climax and on to the Denouement. And what lies beyond.
