Chasing the North Star

From the publisher:

In his latest historical novel, bestselling author Robert Morgan brings to full and vivid life the story of Jonah Williams, who, in 1850, on his eighteenth birthday, flees the South Carolina plantation on which he was born a slave. He takes with him only a few stolen coins, a knife, and the clothes on his back–no shoes, no map, no clear idea of where to head, except north, following a star that he prays will be his guide.

Philip Lorenz

Philip Lorenz received his PhD from New York University. His teaching and research focus on English and Spanish literature and drama of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in relation to problems of sovereignty and political theology. Related areas of interest include International Law, Religion, Psychoanalysis, Translation and Poetics and Theory. His book, The Tears of Sovereignty: Perspectives of Power in Renaissance Drama (Fordham University Press 2013) examines the metaphor-logics created by the great playwrights of the early modern period – William Shakespeare, Lope de Vega, and Calderón de la Barca – in relation to contemporary theorists on the problem of sovereignty. His current book project, “Baroque Files,” pursues the after-lives of early modern sovereignty, as its representation moves from the symbolic body of sacred kings into increasingly abstract and disembodied forms, including public administration.
