Synopsis

In "With the Allies," Richard Harding Davis offers a captivating account of the First World War, intertwining vivid narratives with a journalistic flair that captures the essence of wartime experiences. The book spans a variety of locations across the Western Front, providing intimate glimpses into the lives of soldiers and civilians alike. Davis employs a realistic literary style, steering clear of romanticism to portray the harsh realities of battle, while also evoking a profound sense of camaraderie and resilience. Written during a time when literature sought to reflect and grapple with the unprecedented global conflict, Davis's work stands as both a historical document and a poignant commentary on human courage amidst chaos. Richard Harding Davis was an accomplished American journalist, playwright, and author whose affinity for adventure and storytelling propelled him into the heart of the war. His previous experiences as a war correspondent in places such as Cuba during the Spanish-American War equipped him with unique insights into the nature of warfare. Davis's ability to blend personal observations with broader political commentary emerges from his deeply held belief in the transformative power of narrative in understanding the human condition during tumultuous times. "With the Allies" is not just a chronicle of a significant historical event; it is a compelling invitation to delve into the complexity of human emotions in the face of conflict. Readers seeking a nuanced understanding of World War I, along with a rich literary experience, will find Davis's work both enlightening and essential.

    Toni Morrison's Spiritual Vision...

    When Toni Morrison died in August 2019, she was widely remembered for her contributions to literature as an African American woman, an identity she wore proudly. Morrison was clear that she wrote from a Black, female perspective and for others who shared her identity. But just as much as she was an African American writer, Toni Morrison was a woman of faith. 
     
     
     
    Morrison filled her novels with biblical allusions, magic, folktales, and liberated women, largely because Christianity, African American folk magic, and powerful women defined her own life. Her relatives, particularly her mother, were good storytellers, and her family's oral tradition included ghost stories and African American folktales. But her family was also Christian. As a child, Morrison converted to Catholicism and chose a baptismal name that truly became her own—Anthony, from St. Anthony of Padua—going from Chloe to Toni. Morrison embraced both Catholicism and the occult as a child and, later, as a writer. She was deeply religious, and her spirituality included the Bible, the paranormal, and the folktales she heard as a child. 
     
     
     
    Toni Morrison's Spiritual Vision unpacks this oft-ignored, but essential, element of Toni Morrison's work—her religion—and in so doing, gives listeners a deeper, richer understanding of her life and her writing.

    A raw, often wry, memoir of mothers, mysteries, and miracles. 
    Surrendered at birth in a closed adoption, Candi Byrne's biology and ethnicity are a secret. The impending arrival of her first grandchild ignites an urgency to identify potential genetic time bombs and confirm her ancestry. Due to arcane privacy laws, Candi is repeatedly denied access to the one person who could provide that information--her biological mother. 
    After years of failed attempts, she resigns herself to never learning the truth about her roots; that is, until her ninety-year-old Aunt Delores has a vision and insists Candi resume efforts to find her birth family. Candi is gobsmacked when an internet search she's performed thousands of times before suddenly reveals her birth mother's identity. Within hours, she ends up on the doorstep of her birth mother--a place she's sworn never to visit. 
    After a series of guilt-driven interactions with "Those People," as she refers to her maternal birth family, Candi terminates contact. Although the reunion proves disastrous, it opens her eyes to truths about her relationship with her adoptive mother, Delphine. Though their relationship was difficult and contentious during Delphine's life, a series of miraculous experiences after her death guides Candi home to herself--where, she learns, she has belonged all along.
