Throughout her lifetime, Rita McLaren has documented her experiences in journals and on scrap paper. Now in a collection of short stories, poems, and photographs, Rita shares colorful insights into her unique journey through life that began on Corsie Hill in Perth, Scotland and carried her across an ocean and a continent to settle in Vancouver, B.C. Canada. In a vivid portrayal, Rita captures the history of her life that led her across two continents and through six decades from 1935 to the present day. She begins by detailing the beginning of her life while living in her family's two-hundred-year-old heritage home on Corsie Hill, spending her days running wild and swimming in the River Tay with her twin sister and other siblings. As she leads others through her experiences from childhood to today via images and writings, Rita proves that an adventurous life is the best life.

Ellen Devlin's Rita is as subversive as it is wise. Rita's sassy "talk backs" to heroines from the canon may be feminist retellings but Devlin's project is more complex. Each insightful warning, discussion, or interrogation (with female characters of carefully chosen seminal texts) explores necessary questions of identity, agency, free will, power, and complicity. These poems are instruments of power--asserting, imagining, describing what it's like to be a woman today. I wish I read this book when I was a young woman. This is no ordinary debut collection; Devlin's attention to craft is masterful and her language fresh and fierce. "The windows and doors are locked and I can feel/ my mother's life barreling towards me." --Jennifer Franklin author of No Small Gift (Four Way Books, 2018)

Spännande, varmt och livligt pekboksäventyr av fenomenala Stina WirsénLiten skär ritar med sin krita. Det blir en stor … fisk! Lilla ärtan, Lucia och Ruta är också med och målar. Snart är hela pappret fullt av snäckor och fiskar. Härligt! Men vad händer nu? Nää, en annan brokig kommer med en spann och välter ut den över pappret. Vilken tur att allt de har målat trivs så bra i vatten …Med en imponerande enkelhet skapar Stina Wirsén rytm och rörelse i både bild och text. Böckerna om de små brokiga är mysiga och ömsinta, utan att bli för gulliga.
