Etched in Clay: The Life of Dave, Enslaved Potter and Poet
by James ChengThe acclaimed biography-in-verse about the life and times of Dave, an enslaved potter who inscribed his works with short poems during the years leading up to the Civil War.Sometime before 1818, an enslaved young man named Dave was brought to Edgefield, in the heart of South Carolina's pottery-producing area. From the time he was first taught to turn a potter's wheel, Dave showed exceptional natural talent. Soon he was creating pieces of great beauty and often massive size. He also learned to read and write, even though South Carolina had laws prohibiting slave literacy. And then Dave did something even more daring: he began to sign his jars and carve many of them with sayings and short poems that reflected his daily life and experiences. With these courageous acts, Dave quietly protested the brutality of slavery and asserted his humanity. Here is an evocative portrait of Dave as memorable as one of his jars. Through simple yet powerful poetry, including some of Dave's inscriptions, we learn his extraordinary story of perseverance, creative inspiration, and hope. Today Dave's legacy lives on in the artistry of his pottery, in his intriguing words, and as a reminder of the dignity and resilience of the human spirit.

Eugene O'Neill: A Life in Four Acts (American Critical Archives Ser.)
by Robert M. DowlingAn &“absorbing&” biography of the playwright and Nobel laureate that &“unflinchingly explores the darkness that dominated O&’Neill&’s life&” (Publishers Weekly). This extraordinary biography fully captures the intimacies of Eugene O&’Neill&’s tumultuous life and the profound impact of his work on American drama, innovatively highlighting how the stories he told for the stage interweave with his actual life stories as well as the culture and history of his time. Much is new in this extensively researched book: connections between O&’Neill&’s plays and his political and philosophical worldview; insights into his Irish American upbringing and lifelong torment over losing faith in God; his vital role in African American cultural history; unpublished photographs, including a unique offstage picture of him with his lover Louise Bryant; new evidence of O&’Neill&’s desire to become a novelist and what this reveals about his unique dramatic voice; and a startling revelation about the release of Long Day&’s Journey Into Night in defiance of his explicit instructions. This biography is also the first to discuss O&’Neill&’s lost play Exorcism (a single copy of which was only recently recovered), a dramatization of his own suicide attempt. Written with both a lively informality and a scholar&’s strict accuracy, Eugene O&’Neill: A Life in Four Acts is a biography worthy of America&’s foremost playwright. &“Fast-paced, highly readable . . . building to a devastating last act.&” —Irish Times
