A dynamic, timely history of nineteenth-century activists--free-lovers and socialists, abolitionists and vigilantes--and the social revolution they sparked in the turbulent Civil War era "In the tradition of Howard Zinn's people's histories, American Radicals reveals a forgotten yet inspiring past."--Megan Marshall, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Margaret Fuller: A New American Life and Elizabeth Bishop: A Miracle for Breakfast NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST HISTORY BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY SMITHSONIAN On July 4, 1826, as Americans lit firecrackers to celebrate the country's fiftieth birthday, both John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were on their deathbeds. They would leave behind a groundbreaking political system and a growing economy--as well as the glaring inequalities that had undermined the American experiment from its beginning. The young nation had outlived the men who made it, but could it survive intensifying divisions over the very meaning of the land of the free? A new network of dissent--connecting firebrands and agitators on pastoral communes, in urban mobs, and in genteel parlors across the nation--vowed to finish the revolution they claimed the founding fathers had only begun. They were men and women, black and white, fiercely devoted to causes that pitted them against mainstream America even while they fought to preserve the nation's founding ideals: the brilliant heiress Frances Wright, whose shocking critiques of religion and the institution of marriage led to calls for her arrest; the radical Bostonian William Lloyd Garrison, whose commitment to nonviolence would be tested as the conflict over slavery pushed the nation to its breaking point; the Philadelphia businessman James Forten, who presided over the first mass political protest of free African Americans; Marx Lazarus, a vegan from Alabama whose calls for sexual liberation masked a dark secret; black nationalist Martin Delany, the would-be founding father of a West African colony who secretly supported John Brown's treasonous raid on Harpers Ferry--only to ally himself with Southern Confederates after the Civil War. Though largely forgotten today, these figures were enormously influential in the pivotal period flanking the war, their lives and work entwined with reformers like Frederick Douglass, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Henry David Thoreau, as well as iconic leaders like Abraham Lincoln. Jacksonwrites them back into the story of the nation's most formative and perilous era in all their heroism, outlandishness, and tragic shortcomings. The result is a surprising, panoramic work of narrative history, one that offers important lessons for our own time.

The New York Times No.1 bestselling and multi award-winning YA crime thriller and TikTok sensation that everyone is talking about. Now a major BBC series! ‘A taut, compulsively readable, elegantly plotted thriller', GUARDIAN 'Prepare to be murdered by this book. Dark, dangerous – my heart literally pounded', LAURA STEVEN, author of bestselling Infinite Fates The case is closed. Five years ago, schoolgirl Andie Bell was murdered by Sal Singh. The police know he did it. Everyone in town knows he did it. But having grown up in the same small town that was consumed by the crime, Pippa Fitz-Amobi isn't so sure. When she chooses the case as the topic for her final project, she starts to uncover secrets that someone in town desperately wants to stay hidden. And if the real killer is still out there, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth … ?

The conventional view of the family in the nineteenth-century novel holds that it venerated the traditional domestic unit as a model of national belonging. Contesting this interpretation, American Blood argues that many authors of the period challenged preconceptions of the family and portrayed it as a detriment to true democracy and, by extension, the political enterprise of the United States. Relying on works by Harriet Beecher Stowe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Wells Brown, Pauline Hopkins, and others, Holly Jackson reveals family portraits that are claustrophobic, antidemocratic, and even unnatural. The novels examined here welcome, in Jackson's reading, the decline of the family and the exclusionary white-privileging American social order that it supported. Embracing and imagining this decline, the novels examined here incorporate and celebrate the very practices that mainstream Americans felt were the most dangerous to the family as an institution-interracial sex, doomed marriages, homosexuality, and the willful rejection of reproduction. In addition to historicized readings, the monograph also highlights how formal narrative characteristics served to heighten their anti-filial message: according to Jackson, the false starts, interpolated plots, and narrative dead-ends prominent in novels like The House of the Seven Gables and Dred are formal iterations of the books' interest in disrupting the family as a privileged ideological site. In sum, American Blood offers a much-needed corrective that will generate fresh insights into nineteenth-century literature and culture.

Tjuesju år gamle Jet har droppet ut av universitetet. Hun har slått opp med kjæresten. Hun har flyttet hjem til den søvnige forstadsbyen hvor hun vokste opp. Hun har ikke lykkes med noen ting i livet - og vet hun ikke lenger om det er vits i å prøve. På Halloween blir Jet overfalt på foreldrenes kjøkken. Når hun kommer til seg selv, får hun vite at skadene fra angrepet er dødelige. Hun har sju dager igjen å leve. Sammen med barndomsvennen Billy bestemmer Jet seg for å oppklare sitt eget mord. Alle familiens hemmeligheter skal frem i lyset - selv om det blir det siste hun gjør. Holly Jackson er en av verdens mest populære forfattere, som med Flinke pikers håndbok til mord-serien har nådd millioner av unge lesere. Ikke helt død ennå er hennes første bok for voksne. «Ikke helt død ennå er spennende, lettlest og morsom. (...) Holly Jackson har skrevet en fengslende historie med underholdende karakterer, og et spennende premiss.» Sarah Adekoya, NRK «... en velsmurt spenningsmaskin. (...) Fremdriften er effektiv, krimelementene balanseres fint med mellommenneskelig drama og den lettfotede prosaen er spekket med dialoger hvor Jet får briljere: alltid sarkastisk og kvikk i replikken, også om sin egen nær forestående død.» Leif Bull, Dagens Næringsliv

"Hvem vil lete etter deg når du forsvinner?" Så godt som død av Holly Jackson er den spennende og mørke avslutningen på den populære Flinke pikers håndbok for mord-trilogien. De to første bøkene har ligget på bestselgerlister i USA og Storbrittania i ukesvis, og de har vunnet og vært nominert til flere priser. Den første boka er også filmatisert av Netfilx, og sesong to planlegges i dette øyeblikk. Ikke minst trekkes disse bøkene frem av bokinfluensere, og er blitt store BookTok-snakkiser. Pip står på terskelen til å begynne på universitetet, men hun sliter fortsatt med ettervirkningene av sine tidligere etterforskninger. Plutselig finner hun seg selv i sentrum av en ny og skremmende sak. En anonym stalker sender henne truende meldinger og spør: "Hvem vil lete etter deg når du forsvinner?". Når truslene eskalerer og politiet nekter å hjelpe, må Pip ta saken i egne hender. Hun oppdager forbindelser mellom stalkeren og en lokal seriemorder som har sittet fengslet i seks år. Er det mulig at feil person sitter bak lås og slå? Denne boken tar serien i en mørkere retning, og utforsker Pips traumer og de psykologiske konsekvensene av hennes tidligere opplevelser. Jackson har skapt en gripende fortelling som bringer både plottet og karakterutviklingen i full sirkel på en måte som sjelden sees i YA-mysterieserier.

Flinke pikers håndbok for mord er en kriminalroman for unge voksne som har blitt stor på BookTok og en internasjonal bestselger. I 2024 lanserte Netflix BBC-serien som er bygget på boken. Her kommer den avhengighetsskapende, true crime-spekkede oppfølgeren – med en ny sak for Pip, der nye, mørke hemmeligheter avsløres ... Pip er ikke detektiv lenger. Sammen med Ravi Singh har hun lansert en true crime-podcast om mordsaken de løste sammen året før. Podcasten har gått viralt, likevel lover Pip seg selv at hennes dager som detektiv er over. Men da noen hun kjenner forsvinner, blir hun nødt til å bryte løftet sitt. Kvelden det holdes minnemarkering for seksårsdagen til dødsfallene til Andie Bell og Sal Singh, blir Jamie Reynolds sporløst borte. Politiet vil ikke forfølge saken, og hvis de ikke vil lete etter Jamie, må Pip gjøre det selv. Underveis avdekker hun flere av byens mørke hemmeligheter ... og denne gangen lytter alle. Men vil hun finne Jamie før det er for sent?
