Book excerpt: A hypnotic, brutal, and unstoppable coming-of-age story echoing from within the aftershocks set off by the American Indian boarding schools of generations past, fanned by the flames of nearly fifteen years of service in the Armed Forces, exposing a series of inescapable prisons and the invisible scars of attempted erasure. When he learns his father is dying, David Tromblay ponders what will become of the monster's legacy and picks up a pen to set the story straight. In sharp and unflinching prose, he recounts his childhood bouncing between his father, who wrestles with anger, alcoholism, and a traumatic brain injury; his grandmother, who survived Indian boarding schools but mistook the corporal punishment she endured for proper child-rearing; and his mother, a part-time waitress, dancer, and locksmith, who hides from David's father in church basements and the folded-down back seat of her car until winter forces her to abandon her son on his grandmother's doorstep. For twelve years, he is beaten, burned, humiliated, locked in closets, lied to, molested, seen and not heard, until his talent for brutal violence meets and exceeds his father's, granting him an escape. Years later, David confronts the compounded traumas of his childhood, searching for the domino that fell and forced his family into the cycle of brutality and denial of their own identity.

Download or read book The Tenant of Wildfell Hall written by Anne Brontë and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1992 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume completes the acclaimed Clarendon Edition of the Novels of the Brontes. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Anne Bronte's second (and last) novel, was published in June 1848, less than a year before her death. It is the sombre account of the breakdown of a marriage in the face ofalcoholism and infidelity. Writing with a power not usually associated with the youngest of the Bronte sisters, Anne portrays the decline of an aristocratic husband whose drunken excesses and domestic violence force his loving wife into a reluctant rebellion.The novel enjoyed a modest success that led its publisher, the unscrupulous T. C. Newby, to issue a `Second Edition' less than two months later. The present volume offers a text based on the collation of the first edition with the second (really a re-issue of the first, with a few corrections). Theintroduction details the work's composition and early printing history, including its first publication in America; and the text is fully annotated. Appendices record the substantive variants in the first English and American editions, and discuss the author's belief in the doctrine of universalsalvation.

Download or read book Agnes Grey written by Anne Brontë and published by Modernista. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the daughter of a modest minister, Agnes Grey has low prospects in life. After her father loses most of the family’s savings, Agnes is determined to help out and takes a position as governess for a wealthy family. Being a governess turns out to be more challenging than she could have predicted as she has to manage spoiled children and petty parents, while dependent on their approval for her livelihood. Agnes Grey is the first novel by Anne Brontë, published in 1847, and today considered an everlasting classic. Like the famous Jane Eyre, by Anne’s sister Emily Brontë, it deals with the precarious position of the governess and how the young women taking on that role were treated. It is a poignant and insightful novel that explores rigid class structures and the challenges it poses to women. ANNE BRONTË [1820-1849] was an English poet and novelist. She was the youngest of the three Brontë authors, her older sisters being Emily and Charlotte. Anne died young, probably from tuberculosis, having published the novels Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, the latter hailed today as one of the first feminist novels.
Download or read book The Tenant of Wildfell Hall written by Anne Brontë and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anne Bronte (1820-1849) was an English novelist and poet who didn't live long enough to give the world all she could have, but she did write Agnes Grey, which is now generally considered a classic in English and Western literature. Of all the sisters' works, it is Emily's Wuthering Heights that has aged the best over time, continuing to retain its place as a classic of English literature. Anne's Agnes Grey was written as a Volume III to be packaged with Wuthering Heights and was finished within a year of Emily's novel. Anne is somewhat overshadowed today by her more famous sisters, Charlotte, who wrote Jane Eyre; and Emily with Wuthering Heights. But Anne was a great writer in her own right, and she wrote in a sharper, more realistic style than her two sisters, who focused on romantic prose. I was not familiar with this book, until it was suggested for book club and I am so glad it made it on the list! Anne Bronte is the lesser known sister of Charlotte and Emily. She wrote The Tenant of Wildfell Hall in 1848 at age 28. The book is even more spectacular when you consider the time period, Miss Bronte's age, and the subject matter. This is about a woman trapped in an abusive marriage at a time when women had no options. Yet this woman takes charge and makes her own path. Girl Power 1848 style! I highly recommend this book.This is an epistolary novel told in letters from our hero, Gilbert Markham, to his brother-in-law Jack Hartford and from the diary of our heroine Helen Huntingdon (masquerading as Helen Graham). Helen is a devout yet romantic young woman, who believes she can only love a man she respects. Like women throughout time, she ignores the red flags and marries a man with suspect morals, believing she can change him. Her husband Arthur Huntingdon turns out to be an alcoholic and a philanderer. A real dog, he carries on an affair in front of Helen and encourages their young son to drink and swear. Helen tries to reform her husband, but corrupting their son is the last straw. She escapes to a small village and passes herself off as the widow Helen Graham and supports herself as an artsy. Gilbert Markham falls for her and she for him, but they cannot be together. The village women, especially Gilbert's former beau Eliza begin to speculate on Mrs. Graham and spread vicious rumors. Helen explains all to Gilbert by allowing him to read her diary. She returns to her husband to nurse him during an illness and a nasty case of alcohol withdrawal. I'll stop the summary here to not spoil the ending.Rightly described as an early feminist novel, Helen Huntingdon charts her own course and saves herself and her son while remaining true to her values. I am just amazed that this was written by a young woman in the 1840's. A woman leaving her husband, regardless of circumstances, was unheard of and illegal. At that time, women were property. A wife had no right to earn money, get a divorce, or sue for custody. She had no independent existence from her husband. Though controversial, the novel was well received in its time. The writing is mature and the plot moves along nicely. A fine example of literature from this time period.

She lived most of her life with her family at the remote village of Haworth on the Yorkshire moors. For a couple of years she went to a boarding school. At the age of nineteen, she left Haworth working as a governess between 1839 and 1845. After leaving her teaching position, she fulfilled her literary ambitions. She wrote a volume of poetry with her sisters (Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell, 1846) and in short succession she wrote two novels: Agnes Grey, based upon her experiences as a governess, was published in 1847; her second and last novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall appeared in 1848.
