Random House USA Inc Furious Hours Murder Fraud and the Last Trial of
Book Synopsis NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • This “superbly written true-crime story” (The New York Times Book Review) masterfully brings together the tales of a serial killer in 1970s Alabama and of Harper Lee, the beloved author of To Kill a Mockingbird, who tried to write his story.Reverend Willie Maxwell was a rural preacher accused of murdering five of his family members, but with the help of a savvy lawyer, he escaped justice for years until a relative assassinated him at the funeral of his last victim. Despite hundreds of witnesses, Maxwell’s murderer was acquitted—thanks to the same attorney who had previously defended the reverend himself. Sitting in the audience during the vigilante’s trial was Harper Lee, who spent a year in town reporting on the Maxwell case and many more trying to finish the book she called The Reverend. Cep brings this remarkable story to life, from the horrifying murders to the courtroom drama to the racial politics of the Deep South, while offering a deeply moving portrait of one of our most revered writers.

Cambridge University Press Afterlives of the Roman Poets
Book SynopsisConscious of ancient modes of reading poetry ''for the life'', Roman poets encoded versions of their lives into their texts. The result is a body of literature that cries out to be read in terms of lives in reception. Afterlives of the Roman Poets shows how the fictional biographies (or ''biofictions'') of its authors have shaped the reception of Latin poetry. From medieval biographies of Ovid inscribed in the margins of his texts to republican readings of Lucan''s death in periods of revolution to the ''death of the author'' in Hermann Broch''s Der Tod des Vergil, the book tells a cultural history of the reception of ancient literature as imagined through the lens of poets'' lives. Putting modern life-writing studies and ancient poetry into dialogue, it brings biofictional reception to debates in classics, and puts antiquity and its reception onto the map of modern studies in life-writing.Trade Review'… this book offers a wealth of interesting observations of detail on the medieval, early modern and modern works investigated, as the novel approach of a 'biofictional' perspective enables studying these writings from a distinct perspective, leading to new insights and clearer descriptions of previous observations.' Gesine Manuwald, International Journal of the Classical TraditionTable of ContentsIntroduction; 1. Medieval Ovids; 2. Staging the poets: Ben Jonson's Poetaster; 3. Lucan and revolution; 4. Lucretius and modern subjectivity; 5. The death of the author: Hermann Broch's Der Tod des Vergil; Post-mortem.
