A Haitian American woman survives a brutal kidnapping in this “commanding debut novel” from the New York Times–bestselling author of Bad Feminist (The New Yorker). Author and essayist Roxane Gay is celebrated for her incisive commentary on identity and culture, as well as for her bestselling nonfiction and short story collections. Now, with An Untamed State, she delivers a “breathtaking debut novel” (The Guardian, UK) of wealth in the face of crushing poverty, and the lawless anger produced by corrupt governments. Mireille Duval Jameson is living a fairy tale. The strong-willed youngest daughter of one of Haiti’s richest sons, she lives in the United States with her adoring husband and infant son, returning every summer to stay on her father’s Port-au-Prince estate. But the fairy tale ends when Mireille is kidnapped in broad daylight by a gang of heavily armed men, just outside the estate walls. Held captive by a man who calls himself The Commander, Mireille waits for her father to pay her ransom. As her father’s standoff with the kidnappers stretches out into days, Mireille must endure the torments of a man who despises everything she represents. An Untamed State is a “breathless, artful, disturbing and original” story of a willful woman attempting to find her way back to the person she once was, and of how redemption is found in the most unexpected of places (Meg Wolitzer, author of The Interestings).

Today everyone is going with so called #trends. Everyone just want to be like others and live like others, but at the same time, no one is taking consideration about themselves. And why they are doing this? Simple answer to this is that, no one is accepting themselves as they are. They want to fit in the beauty standards forcefully. They have lost their self identity just because baseless standards made by society. Nowadays people love their pets but don't even think about themselves. They know everything about others like being a Wikipedia, but they don't know about themselves, they don't know their self identity and they don't know that how capable they are, what things they can do if they follow their passion and not the society's standards. When you start jumping over the boundaries made by yourself, you actually start living your life as you always wanted to live and not like others. Things automatically get change about yourself. These are the things that nobody is going to tell you. At this moment you really understand that what is exactly "self identity and self acceptance". And then you won't go there where majority is going, you will go there where your heart is saying. Me and my friends as co-author have sparkled some lights on this thought in a book, named as "Things nobody said to me". This book allows the authors to write down their feelings and thoughts in their own spectacular words and convey these emotions to the audience. It is a free anthology so writer is charged anything. It's pure talent out here!

Character is doing what is right when no one else is looking. Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others. Never put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket. Quantity is what you count; quality is what you count on. Very few burdens are heavy if everyone lifts. These are just a few of the quotations that I have included in this book. It is a culmination of over four decades of gathering quotes and sayings, noticing church and marquee signs and bumper stickers and, most recently, researching on the Internet. In the preface for this book, I went through and listed quotes that meant a lot to me, but as I look back, I realize that they all mean something to me. I hope that you can use them for motivation, reflection, and inspiration.
