Ilman välikäsiä

O Law i Law (1943) on kymrinkielisen kirjailijan T. Rowland Hughesin esikoisromaani.Teos kuvaa pohjoiskymrinmaalaista elämäntapaa kuvitteellisessa Llanarfonin kylässä, jonka miehistä valtaosa ansaitsee elantonsa liuskekivikaivoksella. Kirjan kertojahahmo, kaivosmies John Davies, tyhjentää lapsuudenkotiaan äitinsä kuoleman jälkeen. Huonekalujen ja tavaroiden myyminen nostattaa pintaan muistoja, joiden kautta hän päätyy kertomaan katkelmia omasta ja perheensä historiasta sekä kyläläisten kommelluksista. Fiktiivisyydestään huolimatta romaania voi lukea myös aikalaiskuvauksena kymrinmaalaisen kyläyhteisön arjesta ja arvoista 1900-luvun alkupuoliskolla.

Captivity and Restoration

"Captivity and Restoration" is a harrowing first-person narrative by Mary Rowlandson, detailing her experiences during King Philip's War in 1675. The account begins with the attack on Lancaster, Massachusetts, where Rowlandson and her family were taken captive by Native Americans. The narrative vividly describes the chaos and violence of the attack, during which Rowlandson witnessed the deaths of friends and family members. As a captive, she endured a series of forced relocations, referred to as "removes," through the wilderness, facing harsh conditions, hunger, and the constant threat of death. Despite these hardships, Rowlandson's faith in God remained steadfast, providing her with comfort and hope. Throughout her captivity, she reflects on her spiritual journey, interpreting her trials as a test of faith and a demonstration of divine providence. Her narrative also offers insights into the cultural interactions between the English settlers and Native Americans, highlighting the complexities and tensions of the period. Ultimately, Rowlandson's account is a testament to her resilience and unwavering belief in God's mercy, culminating in her eventual release and reunion with her surviving family members.
