Aston Jennifer: Deserted Wives and
Economic Divorce in 19th-Century Englan

Deserted Wives and Economic Divorce in 19th-Century England and Wales

‘For Wives Alone’

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of I’m Glad My Mom Died comes “a thorny examination of power, lust, shame and rage” (Los Angeles Times) from “a writer able to capture some of the darkest parts of human nature with unflinching honesty and devastating humor” (NPR) “Unapologetic and undeniable . . . If there was ever any doubt whether the narrative command that Jennette McCurdy displayed in her bestselling memoir I’m Glad My Mom Died might translate to fiction, let it henceforth be put to rest.”—Elle Waldo is ravenous. Horny. Blunt. Naive. Wise. Impulsive. Lonely. Angry. Forceful. Hurting. Perceptive. Endlessly wanting. And the thing she wants most of all: Mr. Korgy, her creative writing teacher with the wife and the kid and the mortgage and the bills, with the dead dreams and the atrophied looks and the growing paunch. She doesn’t know why she wants him. Is it his passion? His life experience? The fact that he knows books and films and things that she doesn’t? Or is it purer than that, rooted in their unlikely connection, their kindred spirits, the similar filter with which they each take in the world around them? Or, perhaps, it’s just enough that he sees her when no one else does. Startlingly perceptive, mordantly funny, and keenly poignant, Half His Age is a rich character study of a yearning seventeen-year-old who disregards all obstacles—or attempts to overcome them—in her effort to be seen, to be desired, to be loved.

A Novel

Half His Age

Within family law and criminal justice systems, childhood harms are often addressed in isolation, despite their interconnectedness. When legal processes fail to prioritize relational and developmental realities, they increase trauma rather than mitigate it. Understanding cumulative childhood harm reveals how legal interventions shape life experiences, influence future justice system interactions, and interrupt or reinforce cycles of vulnerability. Examining this concept highlights the need for trauma-informed, coordinated responses that recognize children as developing individuals whose experiences with these systems shape their futures. Cumulative Childhood Harm in Family Law and Criminal Justice Systems explores how repeated adverse experiences in childhood are shaped by interactions with family law and criminal justice systems. It examines whether legal responses protect children from harm or contribute to ongoing trauma, disadvantage, and system involvement. This book covers topics such as rehabilitation, civil law, and criminal justice, and is a useful resource for government officials, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.

This book provides a one-stop, comprehensive guide to the Marrakesh Treaty and its relation to copyright protection and disability law.Beginning with an exploration of the origin and impact of the 'global book famine', the book contextualises the role of copyright law in restricting access to the written word. Detailing the core philosophical underpinnings of the debate, the book offers new interpretive insights into the classic justifications of copyright protection through the lens of inclusivity. Additionally, models of disability and their influence over national copyright policies are explored. The social and human rights models of disability, combined with an inclusive interpretation of copyright justifications, are advocated as essential to the Marrakesh Treaty's ability to stimulate meaningful and transformative change. Based on critical textual analysis and an original, panoramic view of the implementation of the Marrakesh Treaty, the book raises awareness of key successes and challenges in the Treaty's operation thus far. It highlights remaining gaps between the Treaty's framework and national implementing laws, and provides suggestions for the improvement of the Treaty's text, implementation, and practical impact.The book will be of interest to researchers in the field of copyright law, policy, and disability rights legal theory.

Essays in Law and History for David Ibbetson

Cambridge Studies on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties

This book reveals how Congress quietly shaped American elections across more than a century of constitutional development. Far from a passive observer, Congress used its authority to influence key controversies - from the expansion of slavery in new territories to the reconstruction of the post-Civil War electorate. Congress exercised power under the Elections Clause, the Guarantee Clause, and later, the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, to combat voter suppression, reimagine representation, and determine who could (and could not) participate in American democracy. Even as Jim Crow laws disenfranchised millions, Congress continued to review and sometimes overturn the elections of its own members, refusing to cede complete control to the states. In doing so, Congress routinely subordinated federalism to politics. In Congress We Trust? provides a new perspective on who truly governs our system of elections by showing that federal authority has been broad, lasting, and decisive.
