The Tempest is a play by William Shakespeare, probably written in 1610-1611, and thought to be one of the last plays that Shakespeare wrote alone. It is set on a remote island, where the sorcerer Prospero, rightful Duke of Milan, plots to restore his daughter Miranda to her rightful place using illusion and skillful manipulation. He conjures up a storm, the eponymous tempest, to cause his usurping brother Antonio and the complicit King Alonso of Naples to believe they are shipwrecked and marooned on the island. There, his machinations bring about the revelation of Antonio's lowly nature, the redemption of the King, and the marriage of Miranda to Alonso's son, Ferdinand.All Rights Reserved

An Eternity with You (Bridgerton oc x oc) by NatashaD2967

If you were to ask anyone in the ton about the Lady with a Fan, even an errand boy could give you an answer. That's the name Anastasia Bridgerton had built for herself to protect her family after their father's passing. As the oldest sister and twin of Anthony Bridgerton, Anastasia lived and breathed to keep her family safe. Marriage was the last thing on her mind when her brother, the Viscount had yet to mature enough to handle the responsibilities of being a head. Anastasia, despite being the Diamond of her Season, devoted her efforts towards the stability of the Bridgertons, leaving no room for romance. However, this may change with the arrival of the Dashing Prince of the North, Nicholas Alexander, who returned to London's high society many years later. With her sister's debut, her brother's ignorance, and her family's stability weighing her down, can the girl find it in her heart to love another? It is said that love concurs all, but can it stand the furious winds of a scandal?

The Perfumed Letter: The Fire and the Fog of WWII by CottonJones

Through the scorched hills of Sicily, 1943, a soldier in Company M of the 1st Division, US Seventh Army, contracts malaria in Troina just as the Allies' strategies change and the war's tempo shifts. The Perfumed Letter traces the emotional and physical moments-where battle rages, illness halts movement, letters go unanswered, and a year of silence begins. This becomes the fundamental year of training for Operation Dragoon: a stretch of time suspended between fire and fog, void of letters home, where recovery becomes its own battlefield. Through archival fidelity and sovereign storytelling, Olan L. Smith maps the unseen war behind the war-the one fought in the body, the post, and the heart.
