The narrative centers around Tom, a thoughtful and introspective boy, as he navigates the complexities of friendship, courtship, and societal expectations amidst a vivid backdrop of suffrage movements and shifting gender roles. Mrs. Vaizey'Äôs prose is characterized by its keen observations and nuanced characterizations, blending humor with poignant reflections on adolescence and identity, thereby placing the work within the rich tradition of British coming-of-age literature alongside contemporaries like Frances Hodgson Burnett. George de Horne Mrs. Vaizey, an accomplished author and playwright, drew upon her own experiences growing up in a changing society to inform this vibrant tale. Her sharp wit and deep understanding of her characters' innermost thoughts reflect not only her literary prowess but also her keen awareness of the social constructs of her time. As a prominent figure in children'Äôs literature, her experience offers a unique lens through which she examines the lives of her youthful characters, imbuing them with depth and relatability. "Tom and Some Other Girls" is highly recommended for readers interested in early 20th-century literature that explores themes of youth and society. This novel is particularly enjoyable for those seeking a richly woven narrative that captures the nuances of growing up, making it an essential addition to any literary collection.

    The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
