#35 Slave Old Man - Patrick Chamoiseau | Martinique | historical fiction | 154 pages

From one of the most innovative and subversive novelists writing in French, a "writer of exceptional and original gifts" (The New York Times), whose Texaco won the Prix Goncourt and has been translated into fourteen languages, Patrick Chamoiseau's The Old Slave is a gripping, profoundly unsettling story of an elderly slave's daring escape into the wild from a plantation in Martinique, with his master and a fearsome hound on his heels.

We follow them into a lush rain forest where nature is beyond all human control: sinister, yet entrancing and even exhilarating, because the old man's flight to freedom will transform them all in truly astonishing—even otherworldly—ways, as the overwhelming physical presence of the forest reshapes reality and time itself. Chamoiseau's exquisitely rendered new novel is an adventure for all time, one that fearlessly portrays the demonic cruelties of the slave trade and its human costs in vivid, sometimes hallucinatory prose. Offering a loving and mischievous tribute to the creole culture of Martinique and brilliantly translated by Linda Coverdale, this novel takes us on a unique and moving journey into the heart of Caribbean history.

Chanter's Folly, Appledore, Devon

Overlooking the River Torridge in the harbour town of Appledore there once stood a tall, square tower. The story is told that it was built by a wealthy shipowner so that he could keep an eye on his fleet, but that the dimensions were miscalculated and it wasn’t tall enough to command the expected panorama. Thus it became ‘Chanter’s Folly’. Continue reading Chanter’s Folly, Appledore, Devon

EMMA (1996)

dir. douglas mcgrath

[ginger-thunder]

It's the last two weeks of my PhD and I'm currently revising a section describing how popular narratives have decided that Henry VIII's main attribute is lust, and I used Showtime's The Tudors as one of our contemporary narratives because the show is history-lite and just an excuse for Jonathan Rhys-Meyers to fuck, basically

So now please step into hell with me in episode 2x05 "His Majesty's Pleasure" when Katie McGrath was on the Tudors and her character Elizabeth Webbe meets Henry VIII while she's in the forest with her husband and Henry VIII is like, "Cool, mine now," kisses her, and absconds with her back to the palace

Cut immediately to them boning down and Katie McGrath asking, "Are you really the king of England?"

And Henry VIII going, "No, I was only pulling your leg" and then NUTTING

And like first of all, it's based on a blatantly false rumour that Cromwell himself debunked

Second of all, they wasted Katie McGrath for THAT

and I guess there is no real point to this except what the fuck

so here's some promo stills with Katie McGrath looking gorgeous per usual and Henry Cavill being like "hehe my chicken nugget"

it's so fucking wild that me watching this show in 2010 while I was sick at home with a cold snowballed into me completing two master's degrees and a PhD on Tudor history like what the fuck, Michael Hirst doesn't deserve this influence or legacy

#24 Last Night in Nuuk - Niviaq Korneliussen | Greenland | literary fiction | 163 pages

A witty and fearless debut from a stunning new voice, Last Night in Nuuk is a work of daring invention about young life in Greenland. Through monologues, emails, and text exchanges, she brilliantly weaves together the coming of age of five distinct characters: a woman who’s “gone off sausage” (men); her brother, in a secret affair with a powerful married man; a lesbian couple confronting an important transition; and the troubled young woman who forces them all to face their fears. With vibrant imagery and daring prose, Korneliussen writes honestly about finding yourself and growing into the person you were meant to be. Praised for creating “its own genre” (Politiken, Denmark), Last Night in Nuuk is a brave entrance onto the literary scene and establishes her as a voice that cannot be ignored.
