“It takes a relationship to cause trauma, it takes a relationship to heal from trauma”. This statement proved to be true for Mya. Mya, a “black sheep” of the family often created “family” within her small social circle; she lived a decent life until one day she believed that she heard the voice of God call out to her to change her life. When she found out that her first cousin had started a church, she saw it as an opportunity to obey God and connect with her family. She’d later learn that her cousin, a cult leader, would lead her down a dark path. And Deliver Us from Evil is a memoir of her journey.
George W.M. Reynolds (1814–79) was one of the biggest-selling novelists of the Victorian era. He was the author of over 58 novels and short stories and his “penny blood” The Mysteries of London, serialised in weekly numbers between 1844 and 1848, sold over a million copies. A controversial figure in his lifetime, Reynolds’s Mysteries, and its follow-up The Mysteries of the Court of London (1849–56), contained tales of crime, vice, and highly sexualised scenes. For this reason Charles Dickens remarked that Reynolds’s name was one “with which no lady’s, and no gentleman’s, should be associated.” Yet Reynolds was much more than just a novelist; he was lauded by the working classes as their champion and campaigned for universal suffrage. To further the working classes’ cause, he established two newspapers: Reynolds’s Political Instructor and Reynolds’s Weekly Newspaper. The latter newspaper, as Karl Marx recognized, became the principal organ of radical and labour politics. This book provides a biography of Reynolds and reproduces his editorials from Reynolds’s Political Instructor as well as excerpts from his fiction.
The book is about a political party in Myanmar named National League for Democracy founded by people from various walks of life in the midst of upheavals that started in 1988. The chair of the party is no other than iconic Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the noble laureate. The symbol of the party is the fighting peacock. It is associated with the decades-long democratic struggle against military dictatorship in the country. The symbol closely resembles a green peafowl, as it has a tufted crest. The NLD party symbol is adopted from the Myanmar (Burmese) Student Union flag. The NLD won a landslide victory in the 1990 general elections held by the military government, the State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC). However, it did not transfer power to the NLD. After a long and bitter political struggle for many years of the NLD hand in hand with the masses, the party won a landslide victory in the 2015 general elections. In March 2016, the civilian government led by the NLD took over the administration from the military-backed government of the country. The book tells in dashing lines about a nation in transition under fledgling democracy.
