Beschreibung

In "The Khaki Boys over the Top; Or, Doing and Daring for Uncle Sam," Josephine Chase presents a gripping narrative that immerses readers in the tumultuous experiences of young soldiers during World War I. Through fast-paced action and vivid characterizations, Chase captures the spirit of camaraderie and valor among a group known as the 'ÄòKhaki Boys,'Äô as they navigate the challenges of warfare and sacrifice for their country. The literary style balances energetic dialogue with immersive descriptions, situating the novel within the broader tradition of early 20th-century adventure literature aimed at young readers, celebrating patriotism and the heroic duty of American youth. Josephine Chase, an eminent figure in youth literature, often drew inspiration from her own experiences and the cultural milieu of her time, which demanded narratives that would inspire hope and resilience. Her work was influenced by the wartime climate and the pressing need to motivate and engage young audiences in civic duty. Chase'Äôs deep commitment to the themes of bravery and sacrifice resonates throughout her writings, with "The Khaki Boys" serving as an embodiment of these ideals in response to a nation in turmoil. This book is a must-read for those interested in historical narratives, youth literature, or the cultural ramifications of World War I. Chase's compelling storytelling and perceptive insights make her work not only entertaining but also a valuable exploration of the spirit of an era, encouraging readers to reflect on courage and the profound experiences of those who served.

    The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

    After the death of her husband, Miriam retreats into the quiet rhythm of quiltmaking and life on the farm. Each stitch is a thread of memory, a safeguard against a world that has taken too much. Her days are measured in silence—safe, predictable, untouched by risk.
     
    Then Levi returns.
     
    Her late husband’s cousin, long absent from the community, arrives to help with the harvest. He brings quiet strength, gentle hands, and a past that lingers like unfinished seams. Miriam never asked for company, especially not from someone who once cared too much, too silently.
     
    Levi has carried his own burden of guilt for years. His feelings for Miriam were always hidden, always wrong. But now, as autumn settles in and hours are shared between fences, fields, and fading light, something stirs again—soft, tentative, undeniable.
     
    In a world stitched by grief and custom, can two hearts find the courage to create something new from the silence between stitches?
