Sinopsis

In "Going into Society," Charles Dickens masterfully intertwines the intricacies of social class and the complexities of human relationships within the vibrant tapestry of Victorian England. Through the lens of his characteristic wit and keen observation, Dickens explores the lives of various characters as they navigate the expectations and follies of high society. His use of vivid imagery and satirical tone not only entertains but also provokes critical reflection on the moral dilemmas facing individuals within the rigid class structures of the era, making it a notable work in the canon of social commentary. Dickens, an esteemed literary figure and a vocal critic of societal injustices, draws upon his own experiences growing up in poverty and witnessing the stark contrasts of wealth and privilege. These personal encounters with social disparity imbue his writing with authenticity and empathy. "Going into Society" reflects Dickens' deep understanding of human nature and his commitment to revealing the challenges faced by the underprivileged, urging readers to confront societal norms and advocate for change. This remarkable work is essential reading for those who appreciate intricate narratives that delve into social dynamics and human resilience. Dickens' astute observations and engaging storytelling make "Going into Society" not only a reflection of its time but also a timeless examination of class and morality, inviting readers to ponder their own societal roles.

The excoriating stories in Mark Doten's brilliant first collection dissect the pathological narratives that shape our culture and country. Narrated by a crosscutting array of White people, Doten's stories spotlight the self-serving logic through which their characters struggle to make sense of, and take control of, the narrative of our time. They run the political spectrum from "well-intentioned" liberals and newly woke CEOs to Trump appointees, QAnon adherents, and believers in replacement theory. There is an anti-vax nursing home employee, an anti-woke billionaire, a nonbinary sneaker podcaster turned January 6 insurrectionist, a nonprofit LA housing president dubbed "WORST KAREN EVER," an elderly Republican in denial of his COVID-19 diagnosis, teenage YouTubers responding to a shooting at their suburban Minnesota school, a demonically possessed cookie manufacturer drafting a BLM statement with his new Black employee, and a gay White supremacist figure who may be a joke on 4chan, but will have his revenge. 
 
 
 
While their identities and allegiances differ, all of them are united by a ferocious belief in themselves, certain that everything they've done can be justified, if you'll just hear them out. In Whites, Doten has written a relentless book that confirms their standing as one of the great satirists of their generation.

In this funny Regency romance series, the Shackleford sisters descend on a Regency society that doesn’t know what’s hit it… 
 
There was no doubt that things had definitely looked better for Gabriel Atwood, one time Viscount Northwood. Mainly because everyone who knew him or of him almost certainly believed him dead - the bastard who’d betrayed him had made sure of that. His only hope was to seek aid from Nicholas Sinclair, his former mentor, now the current Duke of Blackmore, before his enemies realised that news of his demise had been greatly exaggerated. Unfortunately, on finally reaching the Duke’s estate late on Christmas eve, Atwood discovered the house shrouded in darkness and realised with despair that his grace had undoubtedly chosen to spend the Christmas season elsewhere. 
 
Hope Shackleford did not relish spending the festive season under the same roof as her entire family, even though the roof beneath which the gathering was to take place belonged to the Earl of Ravenstone and was far grander than the modest vicarage in which she’d spent her whole life. Indeed, given that her two eldest sisters were married to influential members of the ton, it had to be said that her family were becoming increasingly accustomed to indulgences entirely above their station. 
Hope on the other hand, despite possessing a head of flaming red hair giving indication to the contrary, was a practical young woman who eschewed both whimsy and optimism, unlike the rest of her eccentric family - in particular her father whose calling as a man of the cloth seemed in recent years to play a secondary role to his passion for meddling in affairs that in Hope’s view were entirely none of his business. Thus, the chances of their Christmas festivities being wholly focused on the simple joys of the season were, in Hope’s opinion, slim to none. 
 
After the unexpected appearance of a handsome vagrant who was clearly more than he seemed, Hope had no idea just how correct her misgivings would turn out to be… 
 
Perfect for fans of Regency Romances with wit and humor and a little bit of steam.
