Issuing an invitation to participate fully in feminist movement and to benefit fully from it, hooks shows that feminism-far from being an outdated concept or one limited to an intellectual elite-is indeed for everybody. Hooks speaks to all those in search of true liberation, asking readers to take look at feminism in a new light, to see that it touches all lives. In language both eye-opening and optimistic, hooks encourages us to demand alternatives to patriarchal, racist, and homophobic culture, and to imagine a different future. With her customary insight and unsparing honesty, hooks calls for a feminism free from divisive barriers but rich with rigorous debate. Acclaimed cultural critic bell hooks offers an open-hearted and welcoming vision of gender, sexuality, and society in this inspiring and accessible volume. Hooks applies her critical analysis to the most contentious and challenging issues facing feminists today, including reproductive rights, violence, race, class, and work. Hers is a vision of a beloved community that appeals to all those committed to equality, mutual respect, and justice. It shows us that no matter how misguided. It was there as the only black female present in feminist classrooms, in consciousness-raising, that the author began to engage race and gender theoretically. In this engaging and provocative volume, bell hooks introduces a popular theory of feminism rooted in common sense and the wisdom of experience. Foregrounding gender meant that white women could take center stage, could claim the movement as theirs, even as they called on all women to join. Book comedy comedy comedy drama5/26/2023 This familiar trope is also the opening setup to Curtis Sittenfeld’s latest novel, Romantic Comedy, though Sittenfeld deftly toggles between deconstructing a well-worn genre and leaning into its most predictable beats. And part of the comedy is that an average-looking man who tells good jokes is able to tell them all the way to the bedroom. When it comes to romancing a woman, humor and a heart of gold turn out to be a foolproof strategy of seduction. In these films, what’s most valued in a man is not his body-or even his bank account-but his winning personality. This is, at least, the fantasy that romantic comedies have too often sold us, from Woody Allen’s Manhattan to Harold Ramis’s Groundhog Dayto Judd Apatow’s Knocked Up. It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single, hot woman must be in want of a schlubby man who can make her laugh.

The Mafia Chronicles, Tome 5 : Bound By Vengeance de Cora Reilly. Both were names he couldn’t possibly have chosen for himself. People called him Growl to his face, and the Bastard behind his back. It didn’t protect her.She didn’t know his real name. He was her punishment, a fate worse than death, a way to deliver the ultimate punishment to her father who had displeased them so greatly.Ĭara has always been the good girl. Thrown at his feet because he was who he was, because they were certain he would break her. And now they’d given him what only a few weeks ago had been out of his reach, someone he wasn’t even allowed to admire from afar, one of their most prized possessions. He was the unwanted bastard son who’d always had to content himself with the leftovers of others. Growl has never had something to himself, never even dared to dream about owning something so precious. Human all too human book5/26/2023 In the years immediately following, Nietzsche wrote two pieces - Assorted Opinions and Maxims and The Wanderer and His Shadow. Wagner died in 1883 and Nietzsche wrote to friends both that "Wagner was by far the fullest man I have ever known" and that "it was hard to be for six years the enemy of the man one most reveres." During Wagner's life, Nietzsche never published a critical word about him. Meanwhile, Nietzsche himself had been going in quite a different direction. Nietzsche met Wagner in Sorrento, in the fall of 1876 Wagner was full of his new composition "Parsifal," except that, from Nietzsche's point of view, Wagner was converting a fine classic myth of moral and psychological recovery into a pedestrian Christian extravaganza. With his Untimely Meditations behind him, Nietzsche began work on new material that was finally published in 1878 as Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits. He spent most of this period in Sorrento at the home of Malwida von Meysenbug and was close to his long-term friend Paul Ree, a philosopher and psychologist, who was working on his book The Origin of Moral Sensations. In 1876, because of poor health, Nietzsche took a leave of absence from his teaching position. Human, All Too Human Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits I expected the whole book to be full of poems like that. It is a beautiful love poem in its own right. I did find what I was looking for, not in the title poem “An Aromantic’s Love Song to the Populace,” but the next poem, called “The Only Love Poem I’ll Ever Actually Mean.” That poem is a love song to a best friend, a love song to platonic love. The short volume of poetry An Aromantic’s Love Song to the Populace by Niko Bouvier caught me by the title because I have a great desire for more love songs to be in the keys I know: to talk about friends and family and places rather than romantic love. I don’t read much poetry, but when I do, it is because the title of the book has caught my attention. Overall, I really enjoyed Lola and the Boy Next Door and can't wait for the last book in the series. Given that she is 16 this made me really uncomfortable when reading for all sorts of reasons and while in some ways the relationship can be justified for the purposes of the story, I still didn't feel totally comfortable with Max and Lola's relationship.Īside from the romance, Lola and the Boy Next Door addresses issues surrounding families and friendship and handles it in such a way that makes the story incredibly human and relatable. A one-of-a-kind edition of the beloved romance classic, featuring a custom patterned edge and new extra content. At the start of the book, Lola is dating Max, a twenty two year old musician. One by one, the students of Osborne High are dying in a series of gruesome murders, each with increasing and grotesque flair. However, in that department I did have a criticism. The romance aspect of the story was wonderful as always and, like with Anna and the French Kiss, managed to capture the feeling of being in love for the first time accurately. Reappearances from Anna and Etienne from the first book also give the book a good base, reminding the reader that the books are linked while the ending of the book sets up a possible link between this book and the last book in the series Isla and the Happily Ever After with an opportunity to see characters old and new interact once more. Her passion for dressmaking and costumes make for a refreshing heroine while Cricket Bell and his inventing again make for another unique and interesting character. Stephanie Perkins success once again in creating vibrant characters with Lola being perhaps one of the most vibrant characters ever written. Small Gods by Terry Pratchett5/26/2023 If you are new to Pratchett’s writing and that ‘Book 13’ is a problem for you – please feel free to completely ignore it. He also wants the Inquisition to stop torturing him now, please. He wants peace and justice and brotherly love. In such instances, you need an acolyte, and fast: for the Great God Om, Brutha the novice is the Chosen One – or at least the only One available. So it’s certainly not helpful to be reduced to appearing in the form of a tortoise, a manifestation far below god-like status in anyone’s book. In such a competitive environment, shape and size can be pretty crucial to make one’s presence felt. Everyone has their own opinion, and indeed their own gods, of every shape and size, and all elbowing for space at the top. And the Word was: ‘Hey, you!’ This is the Discworld, after all, and religion is a controversial business. This was one I remembered with huge affection – would this reread be as much fun?īLURB: Just because you can’t explain it, doesn’t mean it’s a miracle.’ That said, it’s a very long time ago since I read the majority of the Discworld series, so when I saw that Small Gods was up on Netgalley, I immediately requested an arc. Anyone who has spent an amount of time here will know that I’m a HUGE Terry Pratchett fan. AuthorWrite something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview. ArchivesCategories |
