Book excerpt: "Fire Exit is all about participatory observation. The reader is taken on a trip, but not an ordinary journey - it is a derive, in the true sense of the word: a detour, a drifting, an ambling. We are not sure where the nameless narrator is taking us, but we are caught up in the narrative, and soon we forget all about ourselves and learn to see things anew: our eyes have been opened. This is not a passive exercise; the reader is required to take part in the journey, to notice the world around her, to take note. A boy sits in the movie theater gazing at the fire exit sign, realizing that the Real Story is not in this dark stuffy overcrowded room but Out There, just outside his reach, glowing red. Walter Benjamin writes in The Arcades, "To walk out of your front door as if you've just arrived from a foreign country; to discover the world in which you already live; to begin the day as if you've just gotten off the boat from Singapore and have never seen your own doormat or the people on the landing... it is this that reveals the humanity before you, unknown until now." These three-line stanzas look unassuming on the page but they are capable of amazing leaps and bounds: in the course of one section they might take us from France to Mascagni to Byron and back, in an astonishing syntactic waltz. Pay attention, like Dante in the underworld, and you will be transformed." --Book Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When five-year-old Yolanda is sexually abused by her own father, saying her life will never be the same again is an understatement. She became the subject of her father’s sexual desires, and he raped her repeatedly, almost every night, for ten years. When her younger sister was born, she decided to act to put an end to this unspeakable crime. Many years later, she finds herself suffering the effects of the horrible nightmare from her past that still haunts her. Yolanda is still bound with the bitter tragedy from her childhood until she marries and has kids on her own. She is not without pain and hurt. She is still broken. Looking for a Fire Exit is Yolanda’s story. This book screams for justice and brings attention to the unspeakable acts of corrupting our children. The text is filled with stories that might be offensive and graphic, and that is exactly the purpose of this book: to highlight the horror of sexual abuse and child molestation that still threatens the safety of our children. People care about the victims of sexual assault and rape, but do we care enough to act? Not all the monsters disappear when you pull the covers up over your head!

Book excerpt: “Fire Exit, Morgan Talty’s debut novel, is utterly consuming. The novel absolutely smolders.” —Tommy Orange Does she remember this day? Does she remember it at all? Does she know this history—this story—her body holds secret from her? From the porch of his home, Charles Lamosway has watched the life he might have had unfold across the river on Maine’s Penobscot Reservation. On the far bank, he caught brief moments of Roger and Mary raising their only child, Elizabeth—from the day she came home from the hospital to her early twenties. But there’s always been something deeper and more dangerous than the river that divides him from this family and the rest of the tribal community. It’s the secret that Elizabeth is his daughter, a secret Charles is no longer willing to keep. Now it’s been weeks since he’s seen Elizabeth and Charles is worried. As he attempts to hold on and care for what he can: his home and property, his alcoholic, quick-tempered and big-hearted friend Bobby, and his mother, Louise, who is slipping ever-deeper into dementia—he becomes increasingly haunted by his past. Forced to confront a lost childhood on the reservation, a love affair cut short, and the death of his beloved stepfather, Fredrick, in a hunting accident—a death that he and Louise cannot agree where to lay the blame—Charles contends with questions he’s long been afraid to ask. Is it his secret to share? And would his daughter want to know the truth? From award-winning author of Night of the Living Rez, Morgan Talty’s debut novel, Fire Exit, is a masterful and unforgettable story of family, legacy, bloodlines, culture and inheritance, and what, if anything, we owe one another.

Download or read book The Baby on the Fire Escape Creativity Motherhood and the Mind Baby Problem written by Julie Phillips and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful, provocative, and witty exploration of the relationship between motherhood and art—for anyone who is a mother, wants to be, or has ever had one. What does a great artist who is also a mother look like? What does it mean to create, not in “a room of one’s own,” but in a domestic space? In The Baby on the Fire Escape, award-winning biographer Julie Phillips traverses the shifting terrain where motherhood and creativity converge. With fierce empathy, Phillips evokes the intimate and varied struggles of brilliant artists and writers of the twentieth century. Ursula K. Le Guin found productive stability in family life, and Audre Lorde’s queer, polyamorous union allowed her to raise children on her own terms. Susan Sontag became a mother at nineteen, Angela Carter at forty-three. These mothers had one child, or five, or seven. They worked in a studio, in the kitchen, in the car, on the bed, at a desk, with a baby carrier beside them. They faced judgement for pursuing their creative work—Doris Lessing was said to have abandoned her children, and Alice Neel’s in-laws falsely claimed that she once, to finish a painting, left her baby on the fire escape of her New York apartment. As she threads together vivid portraits of these pathbreaking women, Phillips argues that creative motherhood is a question of keeping the baby on that apocryphal fire escape: work and care held in a constantly renegotiated, provisional, productive tension. A meditation on maternal identity and artistic greatness, The Baby on the Fire Escape illuminates some of the most pressing conflicts in contemporary life.
