Historia
Best-selling author Laurie Halse Anderson is known for the unflinching way she writes about and advocates for survivors of sexual assault. Now, inspired by her fans and enraged by how little in our culture has changed since her groundbreaking novel Speak was first published 20 years ago, she has written a poetry memoir that is as vulnerable as it is rallying, as timely as it is timeless.

A touching story that resonates with all those hurt
- De KyTheTransGuy en 10-05-19
Speak. Shout. Listen.
Since its publication 20 years ago, Laurie Halse Anderson’s breakout novel Speak has been captivating and shifting the perspective of teens and adults alike. In the years since, she has been a tireless and unflinching advocate for survivors of sexual assault and now has written Shout, a searing little memoir in lyrical verse that’s at once a poignant revelation on Anderson’s fascinating and sometimes troubled upbringing (not to mention her own experiences with sexual assault), a retrospective of the writing and publication of Speak, and a rallying-cry for justice in the #MeToo era. It’s impossible to distill this incredibly layered, important, and powerful listen into a few sentences, but no other in my Audible library has as many saved clips as this one. Anderson’s story, and those of the survivors she’s met over the years, is filled with lines and paragraphs that stick with you and make you want to pause and think, and to hear them read in her own voice is as powerful as it gets.

It's lonely in the small apartment with just the two of them, and Langston is bullied at school. But his new home has one fantastic thing. Unlike the whites-only library in Alabama, the local public library welcomes everyone. There, hiding out after school, Langston discovers another Langston, a poet whom he learns inspired his mother enough to name her only son after him.

Historia
Grown-ups lie. That's one truth Beans knows for sure. He and his gang know how to spot a whopper a mile away, because they are the savviest bunch of barefoot conchs (that means "locals") in all of Key West. Not that Beans really minds. It's 1934, the middle of the Great Depression. With no jobs on the island and no money anywhere, who can really blame the grown-ups for telling a few tales? Besides, Beans isn't anyone's fool. In fact he has plans. Big plans. And the consequences might surprise even Beans himself.

Her name is Omakayas, or Little Frog, because her first step was a hop, and she lives on an island in Lake Superior. It is 1850 and the lives of the Ojibwe have returned to a familiar rhythm: they build their birchbark houses in the summer, go to the ricing camps in the fall to harvest and feast, and move to their cozy cedar log cabins near the town of LaPointe before the first snows.
