'No novel about any Black woman could ever be the same after this' TONI MORRISON.

I dreamed with my eyes open. All the Corregidora women with narrow waists and high cheekbones and wide hips. All the Corregidora women dancing.

Blues singer Ursa is consumed by her hatred of Corregidora, the nineteenth-century slave master who fathered both her mother and grandmother. Charged with 'making generations' to bear witness to this legacy of abuse, Ursa must confront her family history after a fight with her husband leaves her unable to have children. Haunted by the ghosts of a Brazilian plantation, pained by the fractured relationships of her present, she slowly and firmly strikes her own terms with womanhood.

Upon publication in 1975, Corregidora was hailed as a masterpiece, winning acclaim from writers including James Baldwin, Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison and John Updike. Exploring themes such as race, sexuality and the long repercussions of slavery, this powerful novel paved the way for Beloved and The Colour Purple.

'Corregidora is the most brutally honest and painful revelation of what has occurred, and is occurring, in the souls of Black men and women' JAMES BALDWIN

'A literary giant, and one of my absolute favourite writers' TAYARI JONES

'An American writer with a powerful sense of vital inheritance, of history in the blood' JOHN UPDIKE, NEW YORKER

Very good product
These melatonin pills work. I bought them because sometimes I'm so stressed or pressured by everyday life that I find it hard to fall asleep. I don't use them every day, only when I really can't sleep and it's very late. I must say that this pill doesn't knock you out completely. I liked that. You fall asleep slowly, and the next day you don't feel groggy or like you've had too much to drink. It's a great product!

A Game-Changer for Sleep Disorders - Genuine Experience
I wanted to share my personal journey with Melatonin and how it has significantly improved my struggle with sleep disorders, specifically delayed sleep phase. Please note that this review is completely unbiased and I have received no compensation or free products for writing this. Living with delayed sleep phase has been incredibly challenging. I've tried various methods to reset my sleep schedule, but none seemed to offer a lasting solution. That's when I decided to give Melatonin a shot after hearing positive feedback from others. From the very first night, I noticed a difference. Taking Melatonin about 30 minutes before my desired bedtime helped me feel drowsy and ready for sleep. It wasn't a magic solution, and it took some time to fully adjust my sleep pattern, but Melatonin was a crucial aid in that process. What I appreciate about Melatonin is that it felt natural and non-intrusive. It didn't knock me out; rather, it gently guided my body into a state of relaxation conducive to sleep. Over a few weeks of consistent use, I noticed that I was falling asleep earlier and waking up feeling more refreshed. I want to stress that I purchased Melatonin on my own accord, and I'm sharing this review solely based on my experience. This isn't a paid review, and I didn't receive any free samples. My improvement in sleep quality is a testament to the product's effectiveness. If you're struggling with sleep disorders like delayed sleep phase, I encourage you to explore Melatonin as an option. Of course, it's always wise to consult with a healthcare professional before introducing any new supplement into your routine. In my case, Melatonin has been a game-changer, and I'm grateful to have found a solution that aligns with my goal of achieving a healthier sleep schedule. In conclusion, Melatonin has played a significant role in helping me manage my sleep disorder. It's not a one-size-fits-all solution, but it's certainly worth considering if you're seeking a natural way to regulate your sleep patterns. My experience is genuine, and I hope others find the relief they're seeking through Melatonin as well.

Very Broad Overview. A Little Disorderly
Format: Paperback
I liked the book. It's a very broad overview of the major time periods of Ancient Greece, concluding w/ Rome's conquest. It feels too short to convey all the information in a really meaningful fashion and sometimes the order the information is presented in seems a little disjointed. All in all, I felt like it was a good read and would recommend it to others seeking an introduction into the basic outline of the timeline and introduction to many of the major players.
