Aprašymas
Life changes dramatically for suffragette Anne Brown after her husband's assassination.In the spring of 1880, wealthy politician and Globe and Mail editor George Brown was at the height of his career when he was shot by a disgruntled poet who worked in the newspaper's boiler room. Brown left an undeniable legacy as founder of the modern Liberal party, fierce abolitionist, industrialist, and preeminent Father of Confederation. Yet he was not without his flaws: Brown infamously disliked the Irish and arrogantly declared that women should not vote.
In this deeply imagined work of historical fiction, narrated through the perspective of characters most impacted by his formidable presence, readers witness the struggle of a motherless Irish domestic in fear and awe of Brown; his wife, Anne, a suffragette who is caught between devotion and defiance of her husband's authority; and the world-weary poet who seethes with resentment, harbouring notions of revenge.
Immersive, epic and emotionally moving, Unto the Day is an intelligent, captivating literary feat.
