Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Dante/Beckett reduction of human struggle to its lowest common denominator. Michael Mirolla' author of The Formal Logic of Emotion and Berlin. One of the most original and thought - provoking stories I have ever read...true literary art...Not a word is wasted in this masterpiece. Yes' I call it that. I have read many classics' and I can tell you that The Divine Farce should be counted among them; the finest in American literature. Geek scribe Three strangers are condemned to live together in darkness' crushed together in a concrete stall so small that they can never sit down. Liquid food drips down from above. Waste drains through a grid on the floor. So begins one of the strangest' most surreal comments on the human experience' on love and hatred and the human ability to find good in any situation' no matter how difficult. Michael S. A. Graziano delights in the macabre and surreal' yet it is his optimism that lifts this little novel. Like The Love Song of Monkey' this book is deeply thought provoking' horrifying' and funny. Praise for The Love Song of Monkey; Imaginative' intelligent narrative. Twin ideas of forgiveness and mercy twist through this strange' moving' patiently wrought novel.

This book was released on 2022-10-11 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The groundbreaking debut by the award-winning author of Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments, revised and updated. Saidiya Hartman has been praised as “one of our most brilliant contemporary thinkers” (Claudia Rankine, New York Times Book Review) and “a lodestar for a generation of students and, increasingly, for politically engaged people outside the academy” (Alexis Okeowo, The New Yorker). In Scenes of Subjection—Hartman’s first book, now revised and expanded—her singular talents and analytical framework turn away from the “terrible spectacle” and toward the forms of routine terror and quotidian violence characteristic of slavery, illuminating the intertwining of injury, subjugation, and selfhood even in abolitionist depictions of enslavement. By attending to the withheld and overlooked at the margins of the historical archive, Hartman radically reshapes our understanding of history, in a work as resonant today as it was on first publication, now for a new generation of readers. This 25th anniversary edition features a new preface by the author, a foreword by Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, an afterword by Marisa J. Fuentes and Sarah Haley, notations with Cameron Rowland, and compositions by Torkwase Dyson.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1930s to 1950s witnessed the rise and dominance of a political culture across much of North India which combined unprecedented levels of mobilization and organization with an effective de-politicization of politics. On the one hand obsessed with world events, people also came to understand politics as a question of personal morality and achievement. In other words, politics was about expressing the self in new ways and about finding and securing an imaginary home in a fast-moving and often terrifying universe. The scope and arguments of this book make an innovative contribution to the historiography of modern South Asia, by focusing on the middle-class milieu which was the epicentre of this new political culture.
