In New World Drama, Elizabeth Maddock Dillon turns to the riotous scene of theatre in the eighteenth-century Atlantic world to explore the creation of new publics. Moving from England to the Caribbean to the early United States, she traces the theatrical emergence of a collective body in the colonized New World—one that included indigenous peoples, diasporic Africans, and diasporic Europeans. In the raucous space of the theatre, the contradictions of colonialism loomed large. Foremost among these was the central paradox of modernity: the coexistence of a massive slave economy and a nascent politics of freedom.
Audiences in London eagerly watched the royal slave, Oroonoko, tortured on stage, while audiences in Charleston and Kingston were forbidden from watching the same scene. Audiences in Kingston and New York City exuberantly participated in the slaying of Richard III on stage, enacting the rise of the "people," and Native American leaders were enjoined to watch actors in blackface "jump Jim Crow." Dillon argues that the theater served as a "performative commons," staging debates over representation in a political world based on popular sovereignty. Her book is a capacious account of performance, aesthetics, and modernity in the eighteenth-century Atlantic world.

This fascinating novel won awards for best first novel under 70,000 words and for best military story. This well written book is a sweet and bitter true love story set during the time period of WWII. This is an amazing tale of Bob and Dee, written mainly in their own words through love letters, pictures and a hidden journal composed while in German Prisoner of War camps. The story depicts the heroism of the 707th Tank Battalion in several battles including the Hurtgen Forest and the Battle of the Bulge. It follows Company A, 3rd platoon into the village of Hosingen, Luxembourg where orders are received to "Hold at all cost." This battle became known as the "Alamo of the Ardennes." The story also tells of life in small towns in the United States during the war. Much like the famous "Rosie the riveter," Dee joins the war effort in a defense plant. Despite the tragedy of war, the real story is a beautiful romantic tale of an incredible couple that lived and recorded it in "Sugar Reports." H
