Francis Marion Crawford (1854-1909) was an American author noted for his many novels, especially those set in Italy, and for his classic weird and fantastic stories. He was born in Tuscany, the only son of American sculptor Thomas Crawford. His sister was the writer Mary Crawford Fraser (aka Mrs Hugh Fraser), and he was the nephew of Julia Ward Howe, the poet. He was educated in the US, England and Europe, and in 1879 went to India where he studied Sanskrit and edited The Indian Herald in Allahabad. On his return to the US in 1881 he continued his Sanskrit studies at Harvard and contributed to various periodicals over the following few years while living in Boston with his aunt Julia and uncle, Sam Ward. When his hopes of a career as an operatic baritone were dashed, his uncle suggested he try writing about his time in India and helped him establish contacts with New York publishers. In December 1882 he produced his first novel, Mr Isaacs, a sketch of modern Anglo-Indian life mixed with a touch of Oriental mystery, which was an immediate success, followed quickly by Dr Claudius in 1883. That year he returned to Italy where he made his permanent home in Sant'Agnello in a house he renamed Villa Crawford. More than half his novels are set in Italy and he wrote three long historical studies of the country. Among his best known horror stories are The Upper Berth (1886), For the Blood is the Life (1905, a vampire tale), The Dead Smile (1899), and The Screaming Skull (1908). Published posthumously in book form in 1910, this humorous novella tells the story of the search for a governess for two unruly sisters, Evelyn and Gwendolyn Follitt, aged 14 and 15. Previous incumbents of the role have had the misfortune to be too attractive, thus proving a temptation for the girls' older brothers (and father!), so when Miss Scott, a seemingly frumpy young woman with impeccable references, applies for the position their mother is quick to take her on. However, the arrival of the new governess has unexpected consequences, including an escapade with a home-made hot air balloon, making for a fast-paced and amusing adventure with strong and varied female characters. With black and white illustrations throughout by Arthur Wallis Mills.

Archival research into policing and surveillance of migrant women illuminates pressing contemporary issues. Examining little-known policing archives in France, Senegal, and Cambodia, Jennifer Anne Boittin unearths the stories of hundreds of women labeled “undesirable” by the French colonial police and society in the early twentieth century. These “undesirables” were often women traveling alone, women who were poor or ill, women of color, or women whose intimate lives were deemed unruly. To refute the label and be able to move freely, they spoke out or wrote impassioned letters: some emphasized their “undesirable” qualities to suggest that they needed the care and protection of the state to support their movements, while others used the empire’s own laws around Frenchness and mobility to challenge state or societal interference. Tacking between advocacy and supplication, these women summoned intimate details to move beyond, contest, or confound surveillance efforts, bringing to life a practice that Boittin terms “passionate mobility.” In considering how ordinary women pursued autonomy, security, companionship, or simply a better existence in the face of surveillance and control, Undesirable illuminates pressing contemporary issues of migration and violence.

This book depicts the struggles and the hardships that a young girl endures growing up with a single parent background in a hostile ethnic environment where she was expected to live up to certain high standards. Caught in a vicious circle of false humility, hypocrisy, jealousy and competitiveness she was constantly ostracized for a crime beyond her control which is being the daughter of a high profile indigenous woman in the early 1960s till the mid 1980s. In retrospect, her mother was indeed very reputed and a respected member of society, was a Producer and Presenter for the ethnic womans program for the national radio station, hence a household name. She has travelled extensively around the globe representing her country many times. In comparison this childs life was a living hell, likened to living in a glass house where nothing is hidden and everything is under surveillance and the scrutiny of constant criticism, harsh comparisons with other children, suffering emotional and verbal abuse, mounting peer pressure and the overwhelming expectations to perform to an unreasonable standard. Most failing to realise, that the two although mother and daughter, are separate entities who in their own right are special, unique and belong to different generations. This occurred at a time where the norm was a life of respect and reverence for the chiefs and elders of the community. People are prone to act in a way of communal thinking and individuality is not really encouraged as emphasis is generally on the family reputation with little or no regard for the individuals that form the family. Unfortunately this practice still prevails today with some families back home which later cripples individuals and more so society. In spite of how she started, how it affected and marred her life, she fought to survive the best way she knew how. She made mistakes along the way but still she searched to find her answers. She never settled for seconds but will fight to get only the best of what she can get. Never one to live life lying or sitting down she opted to face her opponent standing and with eyes wide open. Truly unafraid and yet fragile enough to and for change. The battle is mostly won if you plan and brace yourself for the impact, though scarred but in time when healed, the enemy will eventually cease to win.

"Examining little-known policing archives in France, Senegal, and Cambodia, Jennifer Boittin unearths the stories of hundreds of women labeled "undesirable" by the French imperial police in the early twentieth century. These undesirables were often women traveling alone, women who were poor or ill, women of color proclaiming their "Frenchness" to move throughout the empire, or women whose intimate lives were deemed unruly. Undesirability often brought alongside it immobility or imposed migration; French officials routinely either denied passage throughout the empire or attempted to relocate women as they saw fit. To refute the label, women wrote impassioned letters to police and ministers throughout France, French West Africa, and French Indochina. Some emphasized their "undesirable" qualities to suggest that they needed the care and protection of the state to support their movements. Others used the empire's own laws around Frenchness and mobility to challenge state interference, illustrating their independence. Tacking between advocacy and supplication, these women summoned intimate details to move beyond, contest, or confound surveillance efforts and the intrusions of imperial policing, bringing to life a practice that Boittin terms "passionate mobility." In considering how ordinary European, Southeast Asian, and West African women pursued autonomy, security, companionship, or simply a better existence in the face of police surveillance and control, Undesirable illuminates pressing contemporary issues of migration and violence"--
