Daisies Don't Lie

Misadventures in Journalism: The Making of a Feminist

By: Nancy Louise Lewis

My life in journalism, which began covering a notorious, and until now unsolved murder in Connecticut, led to attempts on my life by cops in two states. You don’t have to be black to have cops wanting you dead! I uncovered newspaper corruption wherever I went during my thirty-year career, and also found corruption and dysfunction in government at all levels. I ended up homeless, first on East Coast streets and later in New Mexico, due to the duplicitous nature of some of the papers I wrote for, which promise truth but give anything but. Part I details my poisoning at the hands of constabularies and others in Louisiana, after I exposed an until now unpublished account of a massacre of black soldiers in 1942, which was covered up by the Army and my newspaper. Part II describes homelessness in detail from a first-hand perspective, both on the East Coast and in New Mexico, and it features columns I published while on the streets. Part III describes the effort of Santa Fe cops to eliminate me permanently after I'd become a thorn in the sides of corrupt officials and newspapers by filing forty-odd lawsuits. I must be a cat in disguise, since I wrote for newspapers in at least nine states and am still alive to tell the tale. I hope this book will precipitate change in journalism, the love of my life.

Misfortune

A Novel

By: Nancy Geary

As an Assistant District Attorney for Suffolk County and an old-money native of the South Fork of Long Island, Francis Pratt has proved herself a skillful lawyer. But nothing she has ever done could prepare her for the intrigue she becomes embroiled in upon the murder of a close relative. During the grueling search for the killer, Francis is forced to confront a family history which has divided those she holds most dear, and, ultimately, to expose the darker side of a community that has gone to great lengths to maintain its idyllic facade. Misfortune is a whirlwind tour of one of America's wealthiest communities that offers glimpses into the less than fairy-tale-like lives of its inhabitants.

Girl Flying Kite

Poems

By: Nancy Louise Lewis

The absolutely stunning poetry collection Girl Flying Kite: Poems consists of forty-two poems written by an award-winning writer. Nancy Louise Lewis features poems that came from a childhood spent in Appalachia and her other life experiences. She deals with sexual abuse, questions pre-conceived ideas about the world around us, and experiments with language in her works. She says, “Many of the poems have won awards, and I wanted to collect the best of my work into one volume. More to come.” The first poem in the collection, and the title of her book, Girl Flying Kite, describes the moment a nuclear bomb exploded over Nagasaki, Japan, during World War II. Her poem begins: We have to imagine she had flaws, the girl whose shade is blasted forever into Nagasaki stone. She was doubtless less beautiful than the outline suggests. It ends: Seen from far above the earth, the mushroom cloud containing the molecules of the girl must have looked like a giant knob opening the door to a roomful of human horrors, lives no more than scraps of paper to be wadded up and tossed into a corner trash basket. Her words are poignant, powerful, and most importantly, unforgettable.
