Letters from the Madhouse
An uncompromising account of a Bosnian writer's life as an exile in America. Considered a literary icon of Bosnia, Dario Dzamonja wrote raw, unfiltered accounts of life in the streets of Sarajevo and the colorful, caustic characters who inhabited them--including himself. His unmistakable voice interwove criminal slang, local vernacular, and autobiographical inquisition to craft stories in which he often served as protagonist and antagonist. In 1993, Dario arrived in Madison, Wisconsin, fleeing the carnage of the war that ripped Sarajevo in half. Letters from the Madhouse is his uncompromising account as a refugee in America and his recollections of a lost hometown. Spoken with ashen humor, Dario details his down-and-out life in the Midwest as he pines for the past and dodges the future, taking on odd jobs and associating with sketchy characters who amble in and out of the bars he often finds himself in. Through these incendiary short stories, Dario reckons with the destruction of his city and his life before finally resolving to someday return home. Translated by his daughter Nevena Dzamonja, Letters from the Madhouse reels between deliverance and annihilation, rapturing the reader with vivid prose and brutal detail in a collection which marks Dario Dzamonja's English-language debut.
Emilia Pardo Baz獺n
Spanish writer, intellectual, and feminist Emilia Pardo Baz獺n (1851-1921) was a master of the short form and practitioner of the style that became known as naturalism. This collection gathers twenty-seven of her stories in English translation, revealing the narrative complexity, keen psychological insight, and careful attention to realistic detail that was characteristic of her work. The highly symbolic titular story, "The White Horse," qualified Pardo Baz獺n as the godmother of the Generation of '98, the group of writers who exhorted Spain to rid itself of inertia and fixation on past glories. Influenced by the work of Guy de Maupassant and ?mile Zola, Pardo Baz獺n's themes are fear, love, hatred, forgiveness, cruelty, repentance, homesickness, and madness--that is, naked reality as experienced across social strata in her time.
Selected Nonfiction, 1962-2007
J. G. Ballard's collected nonfiction from 1962 to 2007, mapping the cultural obsessions, experiences, and insights of one of the most original minds of his generation. J. G. Ballard was a colossal figure in English literature and an imaginative force of the twentieth century. Alongside seminal novels--from the notorious Crash (1973) to the semi-autobiographical Empire of the Sun (1984)--Ballard was a sought-after reviewer and commentator, publishing journalism, memoir, and cultural criticism in a variety of forms. This volume collects the most significant short nonfiction of Ballard's fifty-year career, extending the range of the only previous collection of his nonfiction, A User's Guide to the Millennium (1996), which selected essays and reviews published between 1962 and 1995. A decade on from Ballard's death in 2009, a new generation of readers needs a new collection. In the period following A User's Guide, Ballard's writing addressed 9/11, British politics from New Labour onward, and what he termed "the rise of soft fascism"--a diagnosis that maintains its relevance amid a shift toward right populism in European and US politics. Beautifully edited by Ballard scholar and novelist Mark Blacklock, this volume includes Ballard's editorials and manifestos; commentaries on his own work; commentaries on the work of others; reviews; and more. Above all, it makes the case for the currency of Ballard's work at a contemporary juncture at which so many of his diagnoses concerning the media and politics have become apparent.

The Broadview Anthology of British Literature: One-Volume Compact - Second Edition
The Valiant Black Man in Flanders / El Valiente Negro En Flandes
A play about defiance of systemic racism. Juan de M矇rida, an Afro-Spanish soldier aspires to social advancement in the Netherlands during the Eighty Years' War (1566-1648). His main enemies are not Dutch rebels but his white countrymen, whom he defeats at every attempt to humiliate him. In this play one encounters military culture, upward mobility, mistaken identities, defying destiny, royal pageantry, swordfights, cross-dressing, revenge, homosexual anxiety, and inter-racial marriage. Andr矇s de Claramonte's El valiente negro en Flandes (c.1625) is an Afrodiasporic play that enjoyed great success and multiple stagings in Spain and in Latin America. Its 1938 negrista performance in Havana, Cuba, and Frantz Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks, attest to the power of this play to illuminate contemporary racial dynamics.This is the first annotated, critical edition and English translation of El valiente negro en Flandes with a comprehensive introduction, three critical essays, the critical apparatus comparing the eleven extant versions of the play, and an appendix with alternative scenes and related historical documents. A tool for scholars of early modern European literature and a pedagogical aid to discuss the early discourses on Blackness in Spain and its trans-Atlantic empire.

Katherine Mansfield, Illness and Death
During Katherine Mansfield's life she experienced the effects of abortion, miscarriage, gonorrhoea, peritonitis, rheumatism and tuberculosis, and would take up a peripatetic existence constantly in search of more favourable climates. The First World War of 1914-1918 and the influenza pandemic of 1918-20 informed the zeitgeist of her times. This volume of essays explores the extent to which this resonant context of disease and death shaped Mansfield's literary output and her modes of thinking. Illness both stimulated and limited Mansfield's creativity - she would write to fund her medical care while simultaneously limited by her poor health, writing in 1922: 'The real point is I shall have to make as much money as I can on my next book - my path is so dotted with doctors'. As explored in this volume, her personal writings document the increasing influence of tubercular literary predecessors such as Anton Chekhov and John Keats, while her stories function compellingly as dialogue with loved ones who have been lost - her brother, her mother, her grandmother - endowing them with life in the process.
The Complete Scottish Sketches of R.B. Cunninghame Graham
Cunninghame Graham was a famous and hugely influential figure in late 19th and early 20th century Scottish politics and literature. He published 34 books during his lifetime, equally divided between histories (mostly of South America), and anthologies of his impressionistic sketches of South America, Morocco, and Scotland, the large majority of which had been published previously in literary magazines between 1896 and 1933. For the first time, the editors have compiled his entire Scottish oeuvre chronologically, into one volume, and set them in their historical and social contexts, which explores and contextualises the works themselves, and traces Graham's development as a much-admired literary artist and social documentarist. One of the editors is a Cunninghame Graham family member, and the family historian, who has provided insights and peculiar details, unavailable to previous biographers, which hopefully provides added depth and understanding to Graham's works.
The Ecology of Italian Science Fiction
The Ecology of Italian Science Fiction investigates the representation of ecological issues in Italian science fiction and film from the 1950s to the present. Taking into account a previously understudied corpus, the book reveals how Italian science fiction has consistently been able to conceptualize and dramatize the impact of human activities on the health of planetary ecosystems and addresses the radical environmental changes that have occurred in the country since the Second World War.Moving from current debates on the environmental humanities and on the cultural status of speculative fiction, the book provides an in-depth analysis of the evolution of the genre in Italy in relationship to the country's environmental history. The book highlights the ways in which Italian science fiction represents non-human agencies - animal, vegetal, mineral - and how the recent Solarpunk movement imagines new synergies with the environment. Drawing on notable works ranging from Lino Aldani to Gilda Musa, from Francesco Verso to Paolo Zardi, from Nicoletta Vallorani to Laura Pugno, The Ecology of Italian Science Fiction covers topics as diverse as the evolution of petroculture in Italy, environmental justice and migrations, encounters with animal and vegetal alterity, ecofeminist stances, and new dreams of sustainability.
