VID FJORTON FYLLDA hade Märta fått nog. Nog av vansinnesnätterna med den alkoholiserade fadern, och mer än nog av styvmoderns översitteri. Berättelsen följer Märtas uppbrott och frigörelse från sin beroendeställning. Handlingen utspelas under slutet av 50-talet, en tid med sjudande framtidstro, högljudd rockmusik, jänkarbilar, raggarfik, jukeboxar, fotbolls-VM med Brassar och en svensk världsmästare i tungviktsboxning. Boken är en fortsättning på "Vargarnas gunstling" utgiven på Ord & Visor förlag år 2000, men den kan även läsas fristående.

Driven by Bismarck's wars and by economic hardship, hundreds of people left eastern Germany between 1858 and 1890 to settle in Canada. The Canadian government started in the late 1850s to open up Renfew County in the Ottawa Valley by building a colonization route -- the Opeongo Road. The efforts of Canadian Immigration officials and the spur of harsh economic conditions at home led this wave of German immigrants to settle, with high hopes, in the newly opened region. Succeeding generations of German farmers who had to cope with the poor soil of Renfrew County complained of an 'annual harvest of stones.' None the less they built a community, erecting the buildings and fashioning the articles of daily use they needed. The houses, barns, schools, and churches, the clothing and blankets, and the furniture they produced are documented extensively for the first time in this book. Brenda Lee-Whiting has interviewed descendants of many of the settlers, explored attics and barns, scoured auction sales, visited cemeteries, and read original letters and diaries throughout Renfrew County to obtain a vivid picture of the original community. She recounts the life-stories of furniture-makers and explains the designs and provence of their cradles, beds, tables, and cupboards, many of which now lie neglected and forgotten. She describes how the settlers cleared and cultivated the land, assesses the fruitful adaptation of Canadian housing styles of German domestic requirements, and examines the equipment and techniques used to furnish homes and to sow and reap crops -- harvests of flax and vegetables, as well as stones. Using the objects made by the settlers and the stories told by them and their descendants, Lee-Whiting brings to life the culture of a people transplanted to a region that challenged them to the utmost, a challenge they met with resilience and resourcefulness.
Following the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor and America's declaration of war on Japan, the U.S. War Department allowed up to five hundred second-generation, or "Nisei," Japanese American women to enlist in the Women's Army Corps and, in smaller numbers, in the Army Medical Corps.Through in-depth interviews with surviving Nisei women who served, Brenda L. Moore provides fascinating firsthand accounts of their experiences. Interested primarily in shedding light on the experiences of Nisei women during the war, the author argues for the relevance of these experiences to larger questions of American race relations and views on gender and their intersections, particularly in the country's highly charged wartime atmosphere. Uncovering a page in American history that has been obscured, Moore adds nuance to our understanding of the situation of Japanese Americans during the war.
Bernice enjoys being a child among her too-curious siblings. It isn't until she begins to have visions of the Promised Land, that dangerous place on the hill where the spirits of her Native American ancestors roam, that her life begins to change. Bernice is a collection of vignettes that captures the beauty of having both African American and Native American heritage collide in the South. It is the story of what it means to have an empty pocketbook but a rich life, a child's understanding but a heart loving enough to swallow the pain of the world. It is the story of a little girl who, by stepping into the world of spirits, learns the definition of strength.
