How the Word Is Passed - Smith Clint

ONE OF BARACK OBAMA S FAVOURITE BOOKS OF THE YEARA NUMBER ONE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERLONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR NON-FICTION A beautifully readable reminder of how much of our urgent, collective history resounds in places all around us that have been hidden in plain sight. Afua Hirsch, author of Brit(ish)Beginning in his hometown of New Orleans, Clint Smith leads the reader on an unforgettable tour of monuments and landmarks - those that are honest about the past and those that are not - which offer an intergenerational story of how slavery has been central in shaping a nation s collective history, and our own.It is the story of the Monticello Plantation in Virginia, the estate where Thomas Jefferson wrote letters espousing the urgent need for liberty while enslaving more than four hundred people. It is the story of the Whitney Plantation, one of the only former plantations devoted to preserving the experience of the enslaved people whose lives and work sustained it. It is the story of Angola, a former plantation-turned-maximum-security prison in Louisiana that is filled with Black men who work across the 18,000-acre land for virtually no pay. And it is the story of Blandford Cemetery, the final resting place of tens of thousands of Confederate soldiers.A deeply researched and transporting exploration of the legacy of slavery and its imprint on centuries of American history, How the Word Is Passed illustrates how some of our most essential stories are hidden in plain view - whether in places we might drive by on our way to work, holidays such as Juneteenth or entire neighbourhoods like downtown Manhattan, where the brutal history of the trade in enslaved men, women and children has been deeply imprinted.How the Word is Passed is a landmark book that offers a new understanding of the hopeful role that memory and history can play in making sense of the United States. Chosen as a book of the year by President Barack Obama, The Economist, Time, the New York Times and more, fans of Brit(ish) and Natives will be utterly captivated.What readers are saying about How the Word is Passed: How the Word Is Passed frees history, frees humanity to reckon honestly with the legacy of slavery.

Julian Lucas, New York Times Book Review The detail and depth of the storytelling is vivid and visceral, making history present and real. Hope Wabuke, NPR This isn t just a work of history, it s an intimate, active exploration of how we re still constructing and distorting our history. Ron Charles, The Washington Post In re-examining neighbourhoods, holidays and quotidian sites, Smith forces us to reconsider what we think we know about American history. Time A history of slavery in this country unlike anything you ve read before. Entertainment Weekly A beautifully written, evocative, and timely meditation on the way slavery is commemorated in the United States. Annette Gordon-Reed, Pulitzer Prize-winning author

The Layers - Stephen Reynolds

The Layers is the debut novel from Stephen Reynolds, exploring how our identity is shaped by our relationships. The anonymous protagonist recounts his life story, showing us how the people he has loved ⠓ his parents, sister, grandfather, best friend, and partner ⠓ have all helped to form who he is. He is a different version of himself with each loved one, versions which combine to make up a whole person. However, as the book goes on and the protagonist starts to lose grip of people around him, he begins to wonder who he really is without them. Are the various versions of himself lost with those who knew them, or can he remain whole in spite of their loss? Struggling with overwhelming grief and its consequential identity crisis, he teeters on the edge of fading away completely. Can he find a way to pull those lost pieces of himself back together, or is he forever lost to the void?Stephen started writing The Layers after losing someone close to him and considering whether a version of himself had also been lost. ⠜I think The Layers is important because it sets out to de-normalise loss,⠝ he says. ⠜We⠙ll all experience grief and death in our lifetimes. The Layers shouts about that. It seeks to confront it but offers no suggestion of peace through doing so.⠝ But the novel isn⠙t all doom and gloom. It highlights the joy and beauty of our most important relationships, and the imprints they leave behind even after they are gone. It is a life-affirming look at how we are reborn through our losses to truly appreciate the connections we have had and those which remain. It is a love story dedicated to all of our quirks, our eccentricities, our nuances, our layers.

The Tattoo Collector - Tim Tim Cheng

⠜I moved to a country called writing⠝ declares Tim Tim Cheng in this striking debut collection. The Tattoo Collector explores family history, displacement, politics, protest, and, as it moves between East and West, the uses of language to illustrate and interrogate what lies in between. As these poems range from Hong Kong, Scotland, and London, they unravel the relationship between the body, ecology and class with precise and haunting tenderness.Here, in Cheng⠙s illuminating and needle-sharp poems, the tattoo is a narrative, the body a radical means of expression. In states of flux, between resisting and belonging, we enter museums, hospitals, graveyards, and gigs. These intimate and polyphonic poems invite us to be troubled and enthralled by exhibits and the stories they have to tell, to look inside the glass box and study what is on display. Close-up, the poems bring into the daylight details that can be seen skin-deep on the surface, as well as those which point to another meaning, inked indelibly, beneath.

Off-the-Wall Word Searches - Eric Berlin, Janinne Berlin

This all-new collection of word searches will offer a wide variety of twists on standard word searches. Some puzzles might have symbols included in the grid (like stars that represent the letters S-T-A-R), some might feature entries that wind through the grid in zigzag lines, some might replace the word list with a set of clues to solve—anything goes! But at heart, the puzzles are still accessible, fun word searches that are easy to jump into, even when there’s an extra challenge involved.

Nice to meet you.⠝The God of the Word is a witty and wry retelling of the Kojiki (⠘Record of Ancient Matters⠙), completed in 712 CE, which is considered the oldest extant Japanese text. It is a myth-history documenting (read: legitimising) the divine lineage of the emperors of the Yamato court, including the Wakatakeru no Mikoto of our text (supposedly the real historical figure the rest of the 14 confabulations were arranged to legitimise). This lively and hilarious translation is guaranteed to make you smile, while also gesturing towards the serious and relevant consideration of who gets to tell the tall tales on which we build our own narratives.

The Word for World - Ursula K. Le Guinová

When Ursula K. Le Guin started writing a new story, she would begin by drawing a map. The Word for World presents a selection of these images by the celebrated author, many of which have never been published before, to consider how her imaginary worlds enable us to re-envision our own.Le Guinâ ™s maps offer journeys of consciousness beyond conventional cartography, from the Rorschach-like archipelagos of Earthsea to the talismanic maps of Always Coming Home. Rather than remaining within known terrain, they open up paradigms of knowledge, exemplified by the mapâ ™s edges and how a map is read, made and re-made, together. The Word for World brings her maps together with poems, stories, interviews, recipes and essays by contributors from a variety of perspectives to enquire into the relationship between worlds and the imagination and representation of them.With contributions by Federico Campagna, Theo Downes-Le Guin, Daniel Heath Justice, Bhanu Kapil, Canisia Lubrin, Una McCormack, David Naimon, Nisha Ramayya, Shoshone Collective, Standard Deviation, Marilyn Strathern.Co-published by Spiral House and AA Publications to coincide with an exhibition of Ursula K.

Volcanic eruptions, solar activities, atmospheric, oceanic and other shifts, as well as anthropogenic behaviour, are fundamental parts of the past and the present. In this magnificent and groundbreaking book, we learn about the origins of our species: about the development of religion and language and their relationships with the environment; about how the desire to centralise agricultural surplus formed the origins of the bureaucratic state; about how growing demands for harvests resulted in the increased shipment of enslaved peoples; about how efforts to understand and manipulate the weather have a long and deep history. All provide lessons of profound importance as we face a precarious future of rapid global warming.Taking us from the Big Bang to the present day and beyond, The Earth Transformed forces us to reckon with humankind s continuing efforts to make sense of the natural world.----- This is epic, gripping, original history that leaps off the page Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland All Historians aiming to tell a narrative face the problem of when exactly to start it.

Music in the 80s - Peter Woolliscroft

Popular music of the 80s decade had its own unique sound. Shaped by breathtaking developments in studio recording equipment and techniques, from digital processing to sampling, the music that is still enjoyed today would not be the same without it. This book tells the story of how one such young engineer/producer navigated his way through this exciting and pivotal period in music history by working with this technology within the confines of the last great era of recording studios, from 1978 to 1988. This was all before musicians and producers retired to their bedrooms with a laptop. Using diaries recorded at the time, Peter Woolliscroft lifts the curtain on the private world of the closed session, with daily accounts of all projects worked on, how they were made, who made them and most importantly how they became hits. It tells of the highs and lows, the expectations and disappointments of recording many of the top acts of the day while navigating the various technical challenges along the way. Along the way, he worked with such names as: Yes, Soft Cell, Cat Stevens, Thin Lizzy, New Order, Buzzcocks, Psychedelic Furs, 10cc, John Cooper Clarke, Frank Zappa, Kate Bush, The Who, Queen, Peter Gabriel, Elton John, Squeeze, Tina Turner, Sam Fox, Talk Talk and Def Leppard.
