Feminist Literary Classics -...

Virginia Woolf, Charlotte...

Presented here are three of the most important feminist novels ever written: Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf, The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and The Awakening by Kate Chopin. Each of these works is an early, groundbreaking piece of fiction from some of literature's finest female writers as they explore life, love and the struggle of women to find their voices in a time where they were too often silenced and suppressed.   Mrs. Dalloway details a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a British socialite in post-First World War England. Looping backwards and forwards in time, the reader is given a glimpse inside the mind of Mrs. Dalloway as she goes about her day. Mrs. Dalloway was included on Time Magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels ever written.   The Yellow Wallpaper is a short story of extraordinary power, exploring issues of mental health, the role of women in society and the oppressive nature of the patriarchy.   The Awakening is a stunningly beautiful novel set in New Orleans that tells the tale of Edna Pontellier, a young housewife attempting to break free from her loveless marriage and find a life of her own.  All three books are presented here in their original and unabridged format.

Notorious - Life with no parole...

Raphael Rowe

Some would call this an autobiography. Others would say it’s a hell of a story. I call it my life. Living it had become the norm, but choosing to write about it wasn’t easy. It’s one thing to react to whatever life throws at you, and another to reflect on it. I’ve been sentenced to life imprisonment, and confined to a prison within a prison, for a crime I did not commit. Being outspoken and relentless in fighting for justice had become my only choice, and as it turns out, my redemption.  My personal life, on the other hand, I have chosen to keep private. Until now.  
 
For the first time ever, this book will walk you through my improbable personal journey with brutal honesty. The good, the bad and the ugly. My story, combined with an exceptional journey to the forefront of investigative journalism remains unparalleled.  As the host of the critically-acclaimed Netflix series ‘inside the World’s Toughest Prisons,’ I continue to do what no-one else has ever done before.  
 
I am Raphael Rowe and my career was born as a result of spending 12 years in prison for crimes I did not commit. 
 
All this has inspired me to try to make positive changes in prison systems throughout the world. I believe passionately that we can make such changes, and this is why I have set up the Raphael Rowe Foundation. Please join us @  https://raphaelrowefoundation.org/about-me/
