Charles Street Trio: A Novel in Three Voices (2022) is a series of books that collectively form a tapestry of life in the form of a sprawling epic of a novel.  Here in Book 1: The Early Years attend a birthday party, spend a day at the hairdresser's, have your heart broken, experience teen awareness of class difference, loss of a beloved parent, a harrowing accident with your mom, take a bike ride around the corner. All intermingled with a visual feast of original collages and photographs. “We met in that small sanctuary of a place on Charles Street decades ago. One of us said she saw a ghost dance across the kitchen. Even our ghosts are lively. About their own business. Another of us said recently that convening again after forty years of life, love and work, we must be angels. Have a seat. Plenty of chairs all around.” --The Authors (2022) Meet the Artists: Pamela Manché Pearce, prose writer, poet and visual artist. About Pearce's Widowland, critics have said: “Widowland provides, as a collection, an assortment of beautiful and raw moments that tackle an active life without the poet's other. Without his living presence. The themes of loss and grief, of course are hardly new…there is a canon, and Pearce arrives in it with her own exquisite verse.” Anthony Valerio, prose writer. Anthony Valerio's fiction bears likeness to our best dreams, when the fantastical elements of the subconscious play themselves out in a vivid replica of reality.--—The Baltimore Sun. “He's just crazy enough. He knows his characters, he knows his craft. He gets in, tells his story and gets out. It's what good writing should be.—Shel Silverstein Kate Farrell, prose and screen writer. Farrell oversees several hit television series. She is a four-time Emmy Award winning sports producer and has produced an award-winning documentary for HBO. Caleb Zakarin is the Assistant Editor of the New Books Network. (https://newbooksnetwork.substa...) Learn more about your ad choices.

The stories in our culture are vital to our identity. But, what happens when our history and the stories associated with it are rewritten? How has folklore been used in the past to convey hidden meaning, or weaponised in a power struggle?Discussing these important cultural points in this episode of the Folklore Podcast is journalist and broadcaster Jane Thynne, author (under the pen-name C.J. Carey) of the novels Widowland and Queen High. You can visit Jane's website at https://janethynne.com/To support the work of The Folklore Podcast and the Folklore Library and Archive in preserving folklore and making it freely available for the future, please visit our Patreon page or learn more about our fundraising.

“The great pleasure of it was to keep the original London, and lay over it a sheen of how it would have changed. It becomes frighteningly easy to imagine this happening.” What would Britain look like if there was never a Second World War? What if, instead, Britain allowed the Nazi regime to take hold of the country, forming a peaceful Alliance with Germany? This dystopian version of history is the setting for Jane Thynne's new novel Queen High, a sequel to Widowland. In this episode we explore this new world, and the unexpected but not implausible alterations to the timeline that might have brought it into being. We discuss the consequences of a regime hellbent on rewriting and editing history. And we talk about the underestimated power of wisdom. In this episode, you will learn: How to craft a dystopia that remains unsettlingly close to reality. How to create a villain that strikes fear into the hearts of your readers. Why paying mind to the intricacies of your characters is just as important as a focus on world building. Find out more about Jane here. Your host is inkjockey founder Mark Heywood.

Widowland by C. J. Carey is the choice for this month's Church Times Book Club — and on the podcast this week, Sarah Meyrick interviews the author, Jane Thynne (who wrote the book under the pen name C.J. Carey). The book was suggested by the Revd Richard Lamey, who has written this month's Church Times Book Club essay about it. This is the third Book Club podcast, a monthly series launched recently in association with the Church Times Festival of Faith and Literature. Widowland is published by Quercus at £8.99 (Church Times Bookshop £8.09); 978-1-5294-1200-0. Sign up to receive the free Book Club email once a month. Featuring discussion questions, podcasts and discounts on each book: churchtimes.co.uk/newsletter-signup Discuss this month's book at facebook.com/groups/churchtimesbookclub About Widowland: The Coronation is approaching, but it is 1953 in an alternative universe, and Princess Elizabeth won't be taking the throne. Widowland imagines a world in which Britain made peace with Germany in 1940. Under this new alliance, many of the men have been sent to the continent, or disappeared. As women now greatly outnumber men, they are categorised, when they reach 18, into a range of roles which shape everything about their future. Women over 50, and those too old to give birth, become marginalised and fall into the bottom rung of society. They live in a ghetto, Widowland. Outbreaks of insurgency emerge, and the Ministry of Culture gives the heroine, Rose, the task of infiltrating Widowland to find the source of this uprising. Will she carry out her instructions and betray the women? Picture credit: © Charles Kerr Try 10 issues of the Church Times for £10 or get two months access to our website and apps, also for £10.

“I'm fine. That's what grievers often say when people ask how they are doing. Except they're not fine.” When Rachel Brougham was a young wife, her dynamic, beloved husband was killed in a bike accident in the city of Minneapolis while she was home making tacos for dinner. Her book, Widowland, is part memoir, part grief journal, part advice manual for all of us to better understand the path of grieving and how to support ourselves and others along its rocky contours. Whether coming from an expected death or a sudden surprise, grief is a new land – a region Rachel calls widowland – and we can learn how to be in that space and how to offer stronger support to those who dwell there.

Photo:  Coronation of George IV, 1821 @Batchelorshow C. J. Carey #UNBOUND: The complete, 20-minute interview, June 26, 2021 #LitCrit:  Widowland by C. J. Carey.  Paperback An alternative history with a strong feminist twist, perfect for fans of Robert Harris' Fatherland, C. J. Sansom's Dominion, and the dystopian novels of Margaret Atwood To control the past, they edited history. To control the future, they edited literature. London, 1953, Coronation year — but not the coronation of Elizabeth II. Thirteen years have passed since a Grand Alliance between Great Britain and Germany was formalized. George VI and his family have been murdered and Edward VIII rules as King. Yet, in practice, all power is vested in Alfred Rosenberg, Britain's Protector. Britain is the perfect petri dish for the ideal society, and the role and status of women are Rosenberg's particular interest. Under the Rosenberg regulations, women are divided into a number of castes according to age, heritage, reproductive status and physical characteristics. Rose belongs to the elite caste of Gelis. She works at the Ministry of Culture rewriting literature to correct the views of the past. She has been charged with making Jane Eyre more submissive, Elizabeth Bennet less feisty and Dorothea Brooke less intelligent. One morning she is summoned to the Cultural Commissioner's office and given a special task. Outbreaks of insurgency have been seen across the country. Graffiti has been daubed on public buildings. Disturbingly, the graffiti is made up of lines from famous works, subversive lines from the voices of women. Suspicion has fallen on Widowland, the run-down slums inhabited by childless women over fifty, the lowest caste. These women are known to be mutinous, for they seem to have lost their fear. Before the Leader arrives for the Coronation ceremony, Rose must infiltrate Widowland and find the source of this rebellion. But as she begins to investigate, she discovers something that could change the protectorate forever, and in the process change herself. https://www.amazon.com/Widowland/dp/1529411998/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Widowland&qid=1625274350&s=books&sr=1-1

In this episode of the podcast, Kevin welcomes Minneapolis-based writer Rachel Brougham to the virtual building where the two chat about being only children raised by MTV, her love of The Cure, her husband's love of Liz Phair, and trying to find the place where grief and joy can occur at the same time—and this happens to be the central theme of Brougham's memoir, Widowland, available from Black Hat Press.

“To control the past they edited history, and to control the future they edited literature." The words of Michael's guest today, the author Jane Thynne. While they belong to the setting of Jane's brilliant thriller, Widowland, for many these words have unsettlingly felt closer to the world of facts than they do to fiction. Little wonder that Widowland was chosen by The Times as its 'Book of the Month' adding to acclaim as the "most important feminist novel in decades": an accolade that more than delivers on Jane's passion for historical fiction and telling the stories of the 20th century through the eyes of the women who shaped it.

Photo: King Edward VIII (1894-1972) reigned from 20 January to 11 December 1936. Just a few months into his sovereignty he caused controversy by proposing to the American socialite Wallis Simpson (1896-1986), who had divorced her first husband and was seeking a divorce from her second. The Prime Minister opposed the marriage and, had he remained King, it would have compromised Edward's position as head of the Church of England. Edward abdicated the throne and was never crowned.  CBS Eye on the World with John Batchelor CBS Audio Network @Batchelorshow C. J.

On 2 March 2007, Japanese prime minister Shinzō Abe denied that the military had forced women into sexual slavery during the war, saying, "The fact is, there is no evidence to prove there was coercion". Before he spoke, some Liberal Democratic Party legislators also sought to revise Yōhei Kōno's apology to former comfort women in 1993;[43] likewise, there was the controversial negation of the six-week Nanking Massacre in 1937–1938.

Jane Thynne was born in Venezuela and moved around the world with her parents and two brothers before settling in London. She is a journalist and writer who has published several historical fiction novels.

Her job did not affect her decision to recommend this book. In this interview, we chat about:  The elements of Nazi Germany that inspired Widowland and the real-life women referenced in the novel Why Jane chose not to explicitly name Hitler in the novel The fascination of imagining how we would react living in an oppressive tyrannical regimen How one dinner party was the catalyst for Jane to write Widowland How Jane became fascinated by the 1930s and 40s and how it has influenced her writing career Fear and how it can be used to control a population (an technique used in the world of Widowland) Why Jane wanted to write this novel under a pseudonym, after publishing her historical fiction series Books and other things mentioned Love Island UK Wentworth Glow Up Interior Design Masters Brooklyn 99 Girl Logic by Iliza Shlesinger No Shame by Tom Allen What is Yorkshire Day? https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news/local-news/what-yorkshire-day-history-celebrate-21196394 (Read about it here!)

Best-selling author Jane Thynne's upcoming novel, Widowland, was inspired by reactions to Jane herself, after the death of her husband, fellow best-selling scribe Philip Kerr. She chats to Hannah about Widowland, and why some alternative histories are closer to reality than we might think, as well as the status of widows, in the past and today. Jane also chats refreshingly openly about her experiences of losing her husband, and how it has altered her attitudes to life, possessions and the wisdom of choosing computer passwords. Widowland, written under the pen name CJ Carey, is published on June 10. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast.
