Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE OF NPR'S BEST BOOKS OF 2020 LONGLISTED FOR THE 2021 JOYCE CAROL OATES PRIZE A lush, glittering short story collection exploring female obsession and desire by an award-winning author Roxane Gay calls "a consummate storyteller." From Kentucky to the California desert, these forty-two short stories -- ranging from the 80's and 90's to present day -- expose the hearts of girls and women in moments of obsessive desire and fantasy, wildness and bad behavior, brokenness and fearlessness, and more. On a hot July night, teenage girls sneak out of the house to meet their boyfriends by the train tracks. Members of a cult form an unsettling chorus as they proclaim their adoration for the same man. A woman luxuriates in a fantasy getaway to escape her past. A love story begins over cabbages in a grocery store, and a laundress's life is consumed by her obsession with a baseball star. After the death of a sister, two high school friends kiss all night and binge-watch Winona Ryder movies. Leesa Cross-Smith's sensuous stories -- some long, some gone in a flash, some told over text and emails -- drench readers in nostalgia for summer nights and sultry days. They recall the intense friendships of teenage girls and the innate bonds between mothers, the first heady rush of desire, and the pure exhilaration of womanhood, all while holding up the wild souls of women so they can catch the light.

Download or read book Half-Blown Rose written by Leesa Cross-Smith and published by Grand Central Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An irresistible story of a woman remaking her life after her husband’s betrayal leads to a year of travel, art, and passion in Paris, from the award-winning author of This Close to Okay. Vincent, having grown up as the privileged daughter of artists, has a lovely life in many ways. At forty-four, she enjoys strolling the streets of Paris and teaching at the modern art museum; she has a vibrant group of friends; and she’s even caught the eye of a young, charismatic man named Loup. But Vincent is also in Paris to escape a painful betrayal: her husband, Cillian, has published a bestselling book divulging secrets about their marriage and his own past, hinting that when he was a teenager, he may have had a child with a young woman back in Dublin—before he moved to California and never returned. Now estranged from her husband, Vincent has agreed to see Cillian again at their son’s wedding the following summer, but Loup introduces new complications. Soon they begin an intense affair, and somewhere between dinners made together, cigarettes smoked in the moonlight, hazy evenings in nightclubs, and long, starry walks along the Seine, Vincent feels herself loosening and blossoming. In a journey that is both transportive and intimate, Half-Blown Rose traverses Paris, art, travel, liminal spaces, and the messy complexities of relationships and romance, with excerpts from Cillian’s novel, playlists, and journal entries woven throughout. As Cillian does all he can to win her back, Vincent must decide what she wants . . . and who she will be.

Book Synopsis An Exhibition History of Victorian Leeds by : Rebecca Wade
Download or read book An Exhibition History of Victorian Leeds written by Rebecca Wade and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Exhibition History of Victorian Leeds is a groundbreaking account of the city’s cultural history through its public exhibitions. Offering a vivid analysis of these striking displays in appropriated spaces, it explores Leeds’ relationship with fine and decorative arts, industrial culture and the sciences over the course of the nineteenth century. This significant contribution to urban history establishes Leeds’ importance to the development of British art and design, collecting practices and museum culture, firmly situated in their regional, national and international contexts. From temporary exhibitions in music halls and cloth halls, hospitals and military barracks emerged the networks and structures that informed the development of the city’s permanent cultural institutions. The book closes with the first comprehensive history of the establishment of Leeds Art Gallery, its inaugural exhibitions and founding donations, which would go on to form one of the strongest collections of fine art in the country.
Book Synopsis Bad Girl of Hollywood - The Lila Leeds Story (a Memoir) by : Lila Leeds
Download or read book Bad Girl of Hollywood - The Lila Leeds Story (a Memoir) written by Lila Leeds and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lila Leeds was born on January 28, 1928 in Dodge City, Kansas, USA as Lila Lee Wilkinson. She was an actress, known for "Wild Weed" (1949), "Moonrise" (1948), "Lady In The Lake" (1947) and bit roles in other films. While contracted to MGM she was arrested with Robert Mitchum, and others, for Marijuana. Eventually, after other incidents a judge exiled her from California for 5 years. Though she had a successful nightclub singing career, she had numerous arrests and legal problems as a result of her ongoing drug addiction. She was married and divorced four times, and eventually lost custody of her three children. Ordained a minister in 1974 she opened the S.M.I.L.E. halfway house in Hollywood, accepting residents, many of which were addicts, from both County and State. She died on September 15, 1999 in Canoga Park, California. The first 12 chapters of this book were written around 1958 in Chicago after Lila was discharged from the Levinson Rehabilitation Center, having finally kicked her latest drug addiction. A columnist urged her to write a book while events and people were still fresh. The book had anecdotes about Robert Mitchum, Howard Hughes, Orson Welles and others during her Hollywood days. However, publishers were not interested in a firsthand account of drug addiction from an ex-starlet. Lila shelved the script. We revisited the original script around 1979 and decided to add about twenty more years (1958 - 1978), which included her continuous dealing with her own and others drug addiction. As happens, daily life intervened and the next draft wasn't ready for another ten years. While last visiting me in Texas Lila reminded me of how important she felt the book was, and had me promise I would one day try to get it published. I am sorry it took so long mom. Today, with Opioid (and other drug) use an epidemic in this country, many people are now addicts deluding themselves otherwise. Besides the proliferation of illegal drugs, new or renewed drug prescriptions are handed out before the ink on the previous ones have dried. However, this book is not a Hollywood expose' or a sermon against drug use. Rather, this is my mother sharing her life experiences giving you a rare in-depth, brutally honest look at the mental, physical, and emotional aspects of her drug addiction where, as high as the highs were, the lows were always lower. Thus, this story might allow you to at least know what to expect before you begin, or as you travel down the path of your own possible drug use. Having a syringe in my arm on more than one occasion, I know the brutal honesty of this story. More importantly, this story brings to light the harsh reality of all addictions: the addicted are never in control of their lives. Their belief they are in control is merely an insidious delusion crafted by their addiction. The absolute truth is, addicts are not, nor ever will be in control of their lives as long as they are still addicted.
