Sinopse

The Correspondence of George Sand and Gustave Flaubert is a rich tapestry of 19th-century thought, offering a window into the tumultuous social and literary landscapes of the era. This anthology captures the oscillations between Romanticism and Realism through the epistolary exchange of two towering figures in French literature. The letters within this volume exhibit a remarkable variety of tones and artistic styles; they oscillate between affectionate camaraderie and rigorous debates, revealing profound insights into the creative processes and philosophical contemplations of their time. Readers will find these exchanges a testament to the intellectual rigor and emotional depth inherent in their era's literary explorations. George Sand and Gustave Flaubert, each a luminary in their own right, partake in an insightful discourse that transcends mere correspondence. Both authors contribute significantly to the anthology's theme, richly reflecting the dynamic interactions between their diverse literary traditions. While Sand's works resonate with the liberal spirit of Romanticism, advocating for social reforms and emotional expression, Flaubert's embrace of Realism sharply dissects societal constraints with meticulous detail. These vibrant voices, rooted in distinct cultural and literary milieus, converge here, offering a comprehensive perspective on the evolving literary landscape of 19th-century France. This collection is indispensable for readers eager to explore the confluence of Romantic and Realist dialogues within a single anthology. The Correspondence of George Sand and Gustave Flaubert presents a valuable scholastic opportunity to engage with authentic historical discourse while appreciating the shifts in literary paradigms. Ideal for both scholars and enthusiasts of literature, this volume not only provides academic insight but also fosters an ongoing conversation between the celebrated authors, challenging and enriching our understanding of their interconnected but distinct worlds.

    When Lucy Walsh was seventeen, she was given sixty-three of the love letters her Grandfather Dale wrote her Grandmother Wanda while he was overseas in World War II. A dozen years later, life changing events compelled Lucy to fly from Los Angeles to tiny Newman, Illinois, to spend three days talking with Wanda for what would be their final conversations. What began for Lucy as asking about the letters, became an unexpected master class in truly living. 
    This is the story, much of it conveyed in Wanda's inimitable voice, of Wanda's ninety-seven-year-long life, encompassing everything from her English ancestors to the residents in her nursing home. Through Lucy's candid questions and Wanda's soulful stories, we are swept up into one family's legacy that transports readers right into their own experiences and memories of family. 
    When Lucy isn't talking with Wanda, she visits other relatives and her own memories: the many trips over the years to Illinois and her mother's family; growing up in Los Angeles with two fathers, one a rock star; becoming a performer herself. Inevitably, in her effort to understand where and who she comes from, it becomes the story of Lucy's life as well, to which all readers can relate to in their own search for Self. 
    We fall in love with the unforgettable Grandma Wanda Mae, as she shares insights and confessions with plenty of comedic relief amongst the pain; making us laugh so hard we cry, and cry so hard we come back around to laughter. This book is a treasure trove of all Wanda has to teach us about what it truly means to be deeply, imperfectly, gloriously human, at every age.

    Throughout the long centuries of human history is the want, and the need, to share information, to exchange ideas and for that knowledge and experience, for curiosity and learning, to be the basis of a civil society. 
    In literature the ambition is much narrower.  In order to be known, to be popular, you had to be published.  And for that people had to know you existed and your ideas worth reading.  Obviously for most of humanity’s time people couldn’t read and texts couldn’t be published in any great number. 
    In the 15th Century Gutenberg’s printing press began the revolution to address the second and by the 19th century had gathered pace with startling speed and mass distribution.  Education for the many was brought in to help people understand more of their world and, with new skills, how to have a better place within it.  Now, if the powers that owned the presses and means of distribution agreed an audience would now be able to avail themselves of your ideas, your printed words.  
    Sadly, in the thirst for the new, the recent and the past fell from sight, relegated to dark corners and dusty shelves.   
    But the printed word is rarely without someone, somewhere busying themselves through piles of papers and books rediscovering what a good story is, whatever its age.

    “I was born and broken in Birkenhead, abused from infancy by a network of every kind of pervert from ‘thinks it’s love’ to ‘show it hurts’. I was unwanted, beaten, sold, swapped, photographed, filmed, left for dead, corrupted, blamed, betrayed, ignored and orphaned. 
    But I was also born with a fire inside me. I call it my Phoenix Fire. I am no victim – that word only describes what happened to me. Nor am I a survivor because that implies I am over it. I am a Phoenix – a work in progress. This is my story…”-"I found Broken very painful (in fact, I remain haunted by its contents). Shy is trying hard to make the world a safer place for my children."― Observer

    A true story about lies, murder and the Territory.  
    ‘Sorry, mate, but that’s the message.’ Zak says to grow some balls and defend him. 
    You’ve got to remember he is still a young bloke, stuck in Darwin prison where it’s always hot, the food is slop and they get rats in the wet season. 
    It’s not enough just to help him get out; Zak wants people to accept his innocence and that he was wrongfully convicted. 
    ‘I don’t know what you want to do with that,’ he tells me. 
      
    Zak Grieve grew up in an outback town, at the crossroads between right and wrong, white and black, punishment and forgiving. Convicted of a brutal killing despite even the judge saying he wasn’t there when it happened, he spent years writing letters describing his hopes and dreams, his role in what happened, and how when the real world came down on him with a tonne of punishment, he wasn’t ready. 
      
    This is a book about growing up, about dying and about writing. In the end, it is only Zak’s imagination, given life in the novels he also writes inside prison, that hold the key to his survival. 
      
    In the grand tradition of Helen Garner’s Joe Cinque’s Consolation and Chloe Hooper’s The Tall Man, this is a gripping story of injustice in the Deep North of Australia.

    Angelique is more than a story — it is a vessel of healing, hope, and divine encounter. 
    Through this powerful journey, you’ll meet a young woman whose life unfolds like a prayer — answered slowly, then all at once. Her path is woven with grace, shaped through brokenness, and emboldened by a relentless pursuit of belonging — not just in the world, but in the heart of God. 
    Inspired by moments of clarity and struggle from my own walk with Christ, Angelique carries pieces of my testimony while standing as her own unique voice. Her story will resonate with anyone who has questioned their worth, battled loneliness, or longed for freedom. 
    Let these words speak truth into the quiet places of your heart. May you discover that you are seen, loved, and lifted — not by chance, but by divine design. 
    Welcome to her story. Welcome to yours.
