# Lucy Tan

Lucy Tan is an American writer. She is the author of What We Were Promised, which was released by Little, Brown, & Company in 2018.

## Early life

Tan was raised in New Jersey, and splits her time between New York City and Shanghai. Her parents are from Wuhan, China. As a teenager, she traveled to China with a program meant to acquaint Chinese Americans with their parents' homeland, and experienced the Chinese countryside for the first time. When she moved to Shanghai after college, she was surprised by how modern it had become. When Tan was younger, she aspired to be an actress as well as a writer, and once appeared in a 2005 promo for MTV's My Super Sweet 16 alongside Jennifer Lawrence.

## Writing

Tan received her MFA in creative writing from University of Wisconsin–Madison, where she won the 2016 August Derleth Prize. Tan was a 2018–2019 James C. McCreight Fiction Fellow at the University of Wisconsin–Madison as well.
Tan is a Kundiman Fiction Fellow.
Tan won the 2015 Ploughshares Emerging Writer's Contest for her short story "Safety of Numbers."

## What We Were Promised

What We Were Promised follows a China-born family, the Zhens, who spent years chasing the American dream. When they return to contemporary Shanghai, they settle into a service apartment building and join a community of Chinese-born, Western-educated families in what they view to be a radically transformed city. Tan spent two years after college living with her parents in a luxury hotel, and this became the setting for her novel. "
Publishers Weekly said What We Were Promised "presents an intriguing portrait of class, duty, and family."
USA Today said: "What We Were Promised glows through its intimate, skillful prose. Tan's debut is a beautiful reckoning with the ever-changing definition of home – what it means to have, lose and find family again."
Kirkus Reviews said: "In the Zhen household, Tan brings us a microcosm of the conflicts among China's larger populations: residents versus expatriates, wealthy versus poor, urban and commercial versus rural and agrarian. Humming quietly beneath the surface of the day-to-day microdrama in the Zhens' home is the motif of the disappearance of Lina's talismanic ivory bracelet, the story of which reflects the rivalries between more than one set of characters in this portrait of people learning how to live after a period of immense repression."

# George Haddock (politician)

George Bahr Haddock (1863 – 22 March 1930) was a British Conservative Party politician who served as the Member of Parliament (MP) for North Lonsdale from 1906 to 1918.

## Career

He won the seat at the 1906 general election, defeating by a narrow majority of 2.2% the sitting MP Richard Cavendish, who had been elected as a Liberal Unionist but had joined the Liberal party in 1904.
Haddock was re-elected in January 1910, when his slim majority of 69 votes over the Liberal Joseph Bliss was the subject of an election petition. Bliss's campaign team had asked for recount after the vote was declared, but were told that the ballot boxes had already been sealed and sent by train to London. They lodged a petition, which claimed that invalid votes for Haddock had been allowed while valid votes for Bliss had been disallowed. The court allowed a recount, and Haddock's majority was increased to 169 votes (2.0%).
He was re-elected in December 1910 by an even slimmer majority of 74 votes (1.0%) over Bliss, and held the seat until the North Lonsdale constituency was abolished at the 1918 general election.

# Worshipful Company of Fletchers

The Worshipful Company of Fletchers is one of the livery companies of the City of London.
Originally, one organisation included both bowyers (longbow-makers) and fletchers (arrow-makers). However, in 1371, the fletchers petitioned the Lord Mayor to divide into their own Company, leaving the bowyers to form the Worshipful Company of Bowyers.
The trade of fletchers, considering the development of more technologically advanced weapons, has disappeared entirely. The Company still remains, however, primarily as a charitable institution, as do a majority of the 110 Livery Companies.
The Fletchers' Company ranks 39th in the order of precedence of the Livery Companies, immediately below the bowyers. Its motto is True and Sure.

# Historia de los Partidos Políticos Puertorriqueños (1898–1956)

Historia de los Partidos Políticos Puertorriqueños (1898–1956) (English: History of the Puerto Rican Political Parties (1898–1956)) is Bolívar Pagán's 1959 flagship two-volume set on Puerto Rico's political parties. It covers political parties in the years since the American invasion of 1898 through the year 1956.

## Historiography

Although Pagán, a Puerto Rico senator (1933–1939) and U.S. Congressman (1939–1945), had written half a dozen other books on politics prior to this set, this set is considered the climax of his political penmanship. Critical reviewer Luis Burset states that "for its thoroughness, focus, and relevance, Bolívar Pagán's Historia de los Partidos Políticos Puertorriqueños is now mandatory reading for understanding the development of Puerto Rico's political parties... it enjoys a position of choice in the Puerto Rican historiography."
The two-volume set numbered Tomo I and Tomo II (volume I and volume II) consists of 342 and 399 pages, respectively. Volume 1 was published in 1959 and covers years 1898 to 1931. Volume II was published in 1972 and covers years 1932 to 1956.

## Critical Reviews

The book was reviewed by several critics

# Wengenville

Wengenville is a rural locality in the South Burnett Region, Queensland, Australia. In the 2021 census, Wengenville had a population of 54 people.

## Geography

The Maidenwell Bunya Mountain Road, one of three ways to access the Bunya Mountains by road, passes through the locality from east to south.
The terrain varies from 410 to 800 metres (1,350 to 2,620 ft) above sea level. The land use is predominantly grazing on native vegetation with a small amount of crop-growing. There is a pocket of rural residential housing in the south-east of the locality near the Bunya Mountains.

## History

The locality's name is derived from Wengen Creek, which probably comes from the Waka language (Bujiebara dialect) word wingin, which comes from the local Indigenous culture involving an old woman whose name was Winyirgan.
Wengenville was probably named at the suggestion of the daughter-in-law of sawmiller Lars Andersen when the mill was erected on the site. The Bunya Timber Mills were started in 1923 and by August 1924, employed 56 men. A mountain tramway that fed logs to the mill had at its steepest a gradient of 1 in 1.5. The descent was accomplished by a winder known as a gravitation plant.
A postal receiving office was opened at the Bunya Cash Store in August 1929, and then Wengenville was the name given to the post office at Bunya Mills in November 1929. Henceforth all mail sent to that part of the district was to be addressed "Wengenville, via Maidenwell."
The mill closed in 1961 and shortly afterwards the township was abandoned .
Maidenwell Provisional School opened in April 1926. In 1934, a new school building was constructed and was opened as Wengenville State School. It closed in 1961. It was at 3 Wengen Creek Road (eastern corner of Maidenwell Bunya Mountains Road, 26°50′17″S 151°41′57″E﻿ / ﻿26.83813°S 151.69908°E﻿ / -26.83813; 151.69908﻿ (Wengenville State School (former))).
