Book excerpt: An Instant New York Times Bestseller A New York Times Notable Book One of Barack Obama's Favorite Books of 2020 Named One of the Best Books of the Year by: The Washington Post, NPR, Shelf Awareness, Esquire, Electric Literature, Slate, The Los Angeles Times, USA Today, and InStyle A chillingly personal and exquisitely wrought memoir of a daughter reckoning with the brutal murder of her mother at the hands of her former stepfather, and the moving, intimate story of a poet coming into her own in the wake of a tragedy At age nineteen, Natasha Trethewey had her world turned upside down when her former stepfather shot and killed her mother. Grieving and still new to adulthood, she confronted the twin pulls of life and death in the aftermath of unimaginable trauma and now explores the way this experience lastingly shaped the artist she became. With penetrating insight and a searing voice that moves from the wrenching to the elegiac, Pulitzer Prize–winning poet Natasha Trethewey explores this profound experience of pain, loss, and grief as an entry point into understanding the tragic course of her mother’s life and the way her own life has been shaped by a legacy of fierce love and resilience. Moving through her mother’s history in the deeply segregated South and through her own girlhood as a “child of miscegenation” in Mississippi, Trethewey plumbs her sense of dislocation and displacement in the lead-up to the harrowing crime that took place on Memorial Drive in Atlanta in 1985. Memorial Drive is a compelling and searching look at a shared human experience of sudden loss and absence but also a piercing glimpse at the enduring ripple effects of white racism and domestic abuse. Animated by unforgettable prose and inflected by a poet’s attention to language, this is a luminous, urgent, and visceral memoir from one of our most important contemporary writers and thinkers.
Download or read book Autobiography and Other Memorials of Mrs Gilbert Formerly Ann Taylor written by Ann Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Autobiography and Other Memorials of Mrs. Gilbert (Formerly Ann Taylor): With Portrait and Illustrations The Autobiography with which the work opens, passes to some extent over the same ground as the memoir of Jane Taylor by her brother; but as a personal narra tive of an almost unique family life, it is told very differently, and with large additions. It was addressed, it will be seen, to her Children, and some discursiveness has been corrected, but its Character of Domestic Re collections should be borne in mind. Yet the quaint personages, with their no less quaint surroundings, which appear in its pages, -the quiet Old English places, half town, half village, where they lived, reproduce the old Puritan life - homely, frugal, studious, which is perhaps only known to most Of us through the art of the novelist and it may be interesting to compare the real with the ideal picture. A later phase of Nonconformity, also, is displayed in the other portion of the work. The Autobiography ceases early, but it is believed that the loss will be compensated by the brightness and fresh ness of the extracts from correspondence, of which the rest is mainly composed. A few selections, poetical and other, taken from a mass of material, as illustrative Of character or circumstance, complete the portrait of a Clear and active mind, and Show the outlook of their author upon great questions, both Of this day and of every day.

Download or read book South African Autobiography as Subjective History written by Lena Englund and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines 21st-century South African autobiographical writing that addresses the nation’s socio-political realities, both past and present. The texts in focus represent and depict a South Africa caught in the midst of contradictory and competing images of the ‘Rainbow Nation’. Arguing that recent memoirs question and criticize the illusion of a united nation, the study shows how these texts reveal the flaws and shortcomings not only of the apartheid past but of contemporary South Africa. It encompasses a broad range of autobiographical works, largely published since 2009, that engage with South Africa’s past, present and future. At its centre is the quest for space and belonging, and this book investigates who can comfortably ‘belong’ in South Africa in its post-apartheid, post-Truth and Reconciliation, post-Mbkei and post-Zuma state.
