The Tories don’t like a country that is shaped by 13 years of their rule but prefer not to take responsibility. They have developed a keen reflex for diverting blame. Khayyam and Leila's voices are totally unique and majestic in their own way which made me shed a few tears at some points. I loved Samira's writing so much. Ahmed blends art history, romance, passion and purpose as vibrant brush strokes on a canvas in this passionate narrative about the power of the past to influence the present.” I'm impressed by what he went through, what he achieved...but it was the way he wrote about Ginny that impressed me even more. Here is a man who braved the extremes, who didn't think twice about amputating his own fingers -- and whose deep sense of devotion to his wife comes across without loud words or bragging, but rather in a quiet, persistent way.

Starr C, Nekaris KAI, Leung L: Hiding from the moonlight: luminosity and temperature affect activity of Asian nocturnal primates in a highly seasonal forest. PLoS One 2012, 7(4):e36396. 10.1371/journal.pone.0036396 One of the things I loved about this book is how it approaches history--Khayyam and Alexandre have discussions on Orientalism, which is. Just. *chef's kiss* Introducing teens to literary and historical theory. Amazing. I love it when books have smart discussions about history and the effects of colonialism on people of colour, but bringing in Edward Said has me absolutely deranged in the best of ways. But also--as a person of colour, and a student of history and English who focuses a lot on the knowledge of Western Europe, I could very much relate to Khayyam's pursuit of history and her conflicts around whose stories to tell, and the difficulties that come with the huge impact that Western Europe and exploitation of people of colour have on our society today. How so many stories of people of colour, of women, and of disabled people and queer people have simply never been Thomson, A. T. (1861). The queens of society. :By Grace and Philip Wharton [pseuds.] Illustrated by Charles Altamont Doyle and the brothers Dalziel. New York. hdl: 2027/miun.aan5995.0001.001.I also struggled with what he put both of his wives (and later his child) through despite them clearly being behind his various exploits or accepting them having married him with their eyes open. Another interesting exploration of identity wrapped up in a unique story . . . [Ahmed] continues to delight.” The two women’s stories are told in a way that amplifies both of their voices into something unforgettable.” Stemming from that, I really liked the way the mystery unfolded in this story and the way it all came together at the end. I really liked how Samira Ahmed carried through the theme of erased and forgotten history over the course of the entire story. I thought it was really well-developed and explored thoroughly, especially through Leila and Khayyam's connection to each other. I also really appreciated the fact that it took place in Paris because the aesthetic? Unmatched.

John B Yeats, father of WB: ‘His influence on his son’s poetry came to be profound.’ Photograph: Library of Congress The loris brachial gland may mirror the defensive spur of the male platypus, which has evolved as a seasonal offensive weapon used only during the breeding season, and could explain why loris venom is only sometimes potent to its recipients [ 4]. Alternatively, the venom could be used for intersexual competition. Male lorises have large testes, which could be a sign of high male-male competition for females. The few days during which mating can occur are replete with intense competition and fighting between males and females. Throughout the year, females maintain tightly defended territories that they share only with their offspring and one to three other males [ 15]. Bite wounds in captivity and in the wild have been a major cause of morbidity and mortality, with fatal head wounds being the most common [ 26, 49]. In a review of 30 years of morbidity records from North American zoos, Fuller et al.[ 50] found that trauma was a significant contributor of mortality to both adult and immature animals. Indeed, several animals died following bite wounds that were chronically non-healing, leading to necrosis, septicaemia, lung edema, and cellulitis. These non-healing wounds are also frequent in rescue centres, with multiple veterinarians stating that if a loris bites another, its chances of surviving are slim [ 10]. a b c Wu, Duncan.

Khayyam is rightfully angry about Women's voices being silenced all the time.

With his third wife, Patrice, and baby daughter in tow, Flynn lived aboard his beloved yacht, Zaca, in the Mediterranean, diving, swimming, and drinking with the likes of Rita Hayworth, King Farouk of Egypt, and Prince Rainier. “I laughed,” he writes. “My friends laughed. I had pals. They had yachts. We dined on their yachts or they dined on ours.” The 1905 novel The Marriage of William Ashe by Mary Augusta Ward was based on Lady Caroline and her husband. This woman who had been talked about never got the opportunity to speak for herself. Her name was Leila and her story matters. In learning about Leila, Khayyam’s initial goal to rewrite her essay and prove her case grows distant. She’s no longer focused on her future, but resurrecting Leila’s past is imperative. TL;DR: Focusing on revealing the story of a woman written out of history and led by an #ownvoices Muslim heroine, Mad, Bad & Dangerous' romantic plotline sometimes overshadows the actual women. However, it will appeal to readers who enjoy historical art mysteries, and fits perfectly into the rising genre of stories that bring the voices of forgotten women to light.
