  What is the purpose of art in a world on fire? In this exhilarating and deeply inspiring work, Amber Massie-Blomfield considers the work of artists, writers, musicians, and filmmakers—such as Gran Fury, Billie Holiday, Alexis Wright, Claude Cahun, Rick Lowe, and Joseph Beuys—alongside collectives, communities, and organizations that have used protest sites as their canvas and spearheaded political movements. From writer Ken Saro Wiwa combating oil pollution in Nigeria and Susan Sontag directing Waiting for Godot in besieged Sarajevo to the women stitching subversive patchworks in Pinochet's Chile and the artist-activists who blocked the building of a new airport in France, with stories drawn from environmentalism, feminism, anti-fascism, and other movements, Acts of Resistance brings together remarkable acts of creativity that have shifted history on its axis.

  From acclaimed literary biographer Claire Tomalin, a complex and fascinating exploration of the early life of the influential writer and public figure H. G. Wells 
   
   
   
  How did the first forty years of H. G. Wells's life shape the father of science fiction? 
   
   
   
  From his impoverished childhood in a working-class English family and determination to educate himself at any cost to his complicated marriages, love affair with socialism, and the serious ill health that dominated his twenties and thirties, H. G. Wells's extraordinary early life would set him on a path to become one of the world's most influential writers. The sudden success of The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds transformed his life and catapulted him to international fame; he became the writer who most inspired Orwell and countless others and predicted men walking on the moon seventy years before it happened. 
   
   
   
  In this remarkable, empathetic biography, Claire Tomalin paints a fascinating portrait of a man like no other, driven by curiosity and desiring reform, a socialist and a futurist whose new and imaginative worlds continue to inspire today.

  TITANIC 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY JAMES CAMERON 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Titanic (1997), directed by James Cameron, is an epic romance and disaster film set aboard the ill-fated RMS Titanic. The story follows Rose, a young woman from an aristocratic family, and Jack, a poor artist, who fall in love during the ship’s maiden voyage in 1912. Their love story unfolds against the backdrop of class division and the impending disaster. The film explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the human spirit, while juxtaposing the romance with the historical tragedy of the Titanic's sinking. With stunning visuals and an emotional narrative, Titanic remains a cinematic landmark. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “After learning she would be required to be naked in front of Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet decided to lighten the mood by flashing him when they first met.” 
    
  “In the scene where water rushes into the Grand Staircase room, the filmmakers only had one chance to film it, as the entire set and its furnishings were going to be destroyed.” 
    
  “The movie's scenes set in 1912, which make up the entire movie except for the present-day scenes and credits, last exactly two hours and forty minutes — the exact duration it took for the Titanic to sink. The collision with the iceberg lasts 37 seconds, mirroring the actual event.”
