Summary

Immerse yourself in the profound and thought-provoking world of Havelock Ellis with "Impressions and Comments". This book is a collection of daily impressions and commentaries, gathered from the author's personal notes on life and thought. Ellis covers a wide range of topics, from the miracles of nature to the charms and absurdities of human existence, all the while maintaining a deep-rooted faith and central vision. Here's an excerpt: "July 27.—A gentle rain was falling, and on this my first day in Paris since the unveiling of the Verlaine monument in the Luxembourg Gardens, immediately after I left Paris last year, I thought there could be no better moment to visit the spot so peculiarly fit to be dedicated to the poet who loved such spots—a "coin exquis" where the rain may fall peacefully among the trees, on his image as once on his heart, and the tender mists enfold him from the harsh world."

    This story of a grief-stricken man’s murder of a landlord is “nothing less than a reinvention of the true crime genre” (The Nation).   In 1947, James Hickman shot and killed the landlord he believed was responsible for a tragic fire that took the lives of four of his children on Chicago’s West Side. But a vibrant defense campaign, exposing the working poverty and racism that led to his crime, helped win Hickman’s freedom.   With a true-crime writer’s eye for suspense and a historian’s depth of knowledge, Joe Allen unearths the compelling story of a campaign that stood up to Jim Crow well before the modern civil rights movement had even begun.   Those who witnessed the Great Recession’s deteriorating housing conditions and accelerating foreclosure crisis will discover a hauntingly similar set of circumstances contributing to the Hickman case—giving this little-remembered story profound relevance in today’s political atmosphere and the tension surrounding rampant wealth and racial inequality.   “[A] remarkable book . . . a horrific portrait of the inhumane conditions in which blacks were forced to live in post-WWII Chicago.” —Chicago Tribune
