    • "Remie Yorke sta svolgendo il suo ultimo turno al Mackinnon Hotel prima della chiusura invernale, quando si scatena la tempesta Ezra che taglia ogni collegamento col mondo esterno. Mentre le temperature precipitano e le linee telefoniche si interrompono, un uomo ferito chiede rifugio. Si tratta dell’agente Don Gaines, rimasto coinvolto in un terribile incidente. L’unico altro sopravvissuto? Il detenuto che la sua squadra stava trasportando. Ma poco dopo arriva un secondo sconosciuto: anche lui è ferito e anche lui dichiara di essere Don Gaines. Qualcuno sta mentendo e Remie, senza alcuna via di fuga, dovrà scoprire chi dei due prima che sia troppo tardi. Perché se non la ucciderà il freddo, lo farà uno di loro..." -- goodreads.com

    • The book explores the diverse memories of the American Civil War as expressed by five Northern writers over four decades. It highlights the rhetorical power of James Russell Lowell's Harvard Commemoration Ode, the irony in Herman Melville's poetry, Henry James's themes of reconciliation in "The Bostonians," and Ambrose Bierce's short stories. The examination culminates with Paul Laurence Dunbar's elegy "Robert Gould Shaw," showcasing how these authors grappled with the war's legacy and its implications for race and national identity in postwar America.
