Book Synopsis The Chinese Garden by : Rosemary Manning
Download or read book The Chinese Garden written by Rosemary Manning and published by The Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2016-05-30 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “very intelligent, sensitive, and compelling” novel of adolescent rebellion and sexual awakening at a girls’ boarding school (Anthony Burgess). Set in a repressive British girls’ boarding school in the late 1920s—where not only sexuality but femininity is squashed—Rosemary Manning’s “wonderful” 1962 novel is the coming-of-age story of sixteen-year-old Rachel, a sensitive, bright, and innocent student (The Guardian). Rachel finds refuge from the Spartan conditions, strict regime, fierce discipline, and formidable headmistress at Bampfield in a secret garden. She also finds friendship there, with a rebellious girl named Margaret. As Margaret has her mind expanded by a scandalous tome entitled The Well of Loneliness, she engages in a bold, forbidden act—the ultimate transgression at Bampfield—and Rachel is drawn into the turmoil. Confronted with the persecution of her friend and troubled by a growing awareness of her own sensuality, Rachel faces an impossible choice that drives her to desperate measures. Selected as one of the Top 10 Lesbian Books by the Guardian, “Rosemary Manning’s unjustly forgotten novel is a deft depiction of innocence and the forces of hypocrisy, paranoia, and self-hatred that betray innocence” (Lillian Faderman, author of Odd Girls and Twilight Lovers).

Book Synopsis The Garden of Small Beginnings by : Abbi Waxman
Download or read book The Garden of Small Beginnings written by Abbi Waxman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A quirky, funny, and deeply thoughtful book”* that’s “filled with characters you’ll love and wish you lived next door to in real life”** from the author of The Bookish Life of Nina Hill. Lilian Girvan has been a single mother for three years—ever since her husband died in a car accident. One mental breakdown and some random suicidal thoughts later, she’s just starting to get the hang of this widow thing. She can now get her two girls to school, show up to work, and watch TV like a pro. The only problem is she’s becoming overwhelmed with being underwhelmed. At least her textbook illustrating job has some perks—like actually being called upon to draw whale genitalia. Oh, and there’s that vegetable-gardening class her boss signed her up for. Apparently, being the chosen illustrator for a series of boutique vegetable guides means getting your hands dirty, literally. Wallowing around in compost on a Saturday morning can’t be much worse than wallowing around in pajamas and self-pity. After recruiting her kids and insanely supportive sister to join her, Lilian shows up at the Los Angeles botanical garden feeling out of her element. But what she’ll soon discover—with the help of a patient instructor and a quirky group of gardeners—is that into every life a little sun must shine, whether you want it to or not...

Download or read book The Lost Hours written by Karen White and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-04-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling author of the Tradd Street novels delivers a gripping tale of family, fate, and forgiveness. When Piper Mills was twelve, she helped her grandfather bury a box that belonged to her grandmother in the backyard. For twelve years, it remained untouched. Now a near fatal riding accident has shattered Piper’s dreams of Olympic glory. After her grandfather’s death, she inherits the house and all its secrets, including a key to a room that doesn’t exist—or does it? And after her grandmother is sent away to a nursing home, she remembers the box buried in the backyard. In it are torn pages from a scrapbook, a charm necklace—and a newspaper article from 1939 about the body of an infant found floating in the Savannah River. The necklace’s charms tell the story of three friends during the 1930s— each charm added during the three months each friend had the necklace and recorded her life in the scrapbook. Piper always dismissed her grandmother as not having had a story to tell. And now, too late, Piper finds she might have been wrong.

Book Synopsis A Double Portion by : Margie O'Connor
Download or read book A Double Portion written by Margie O'Connor and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women all over the world are feeling the call to awaken, to tap into their God-given creative powers. Any religion that would silence that call is just too small for the life that is emerging. A Double Portion speaks to the realization of the Divine Feminine as experienced by a group of sisters who have followed an ancient call and gather around Brigid, a fifth-century historical figure considered both Goddess and Saint. This work of visionary fiction follows the path of each sister as she tends to the flames of justice, offering a way forward for all who are seeking to dismantle unjust patriarchal ways. Warmed by Brigid’s flame, the reader will be forever challenged to include those left out, devalued, deemed invisible, or moved to the margins. Around the world, women are arising who refuse to be silenced by the patriarchy and clericalism that have denied women their rightful place in church and society. A Double Portion insists all will be provided for and offered a double portion under the mantle of Brigid. Smart, clever, funny, and just, A Double Portion is for women and men who know the power of building collaborative relationships that call on each individual's giftedness. In times of uncertainty, existing inequalities must be amplified, and everyone must speak up despite their fear. This novel provides a clear and powerful feminist vision of empowerment for all.

Dear Reader, I've owned the Cut 'n' Curl beauty shop for years, and I've seen folks come for a visit, then stay for a lifetime. Yes, our town is way off the beaten path, but wonderful miracles happen a lot around here-and they've happened to all four of my children! In Welcome to Last Chance, you'll meet my son Clay who, ever since he left his country western band, has been playing everything too safe. But when he meets a pretty firecracker of a girl who's new in town, well, he and Jane soon realize they're singing the same tune. My stock-car-driver son, Tulane, comes back to town in Home at Last Chance. And he's brought a young lady by the name of Sarah. She's just the sweetest girl you could meet-but mark my words, Sarah is tired of being a good girl. And no one is better at breaking the rules and raising Cain than my Tulane. Growing up, my beautiful daughter, Rocky, wasn't much interested in the local boys, but who'd have thought she'd come home with English royalty? In Last Chance Beauty Queen, we meet Hugh, who's classy and handsome-but what do we know about him, really? I'm going to get to the bottom of everything, cause my little girl deserves the best. And at long last, my prayers might just be answered for my oldest boy, Stone! He's a widower who raises his daughters by himself but, in Last Chance Christmas, he meets a lovely girl named Lark. It's clear Lark has been through some trouble and could use a place to finally call home. I only hope Stone can let go of his own past soon enough to keep her. Listen to me, going on and keeping customers waiting. I best get back to work, but next time you're in Last Chance, be sure to swing by. We've got hot rollers, free coffee, and the best gossip in town. See you real soon, Ruby Rhodes
Download or read book Just Words written by Alan Ackerman and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an appearance on "The Dick Cavett Show" in 1980, the critic Mary McCarthy glibly remarked that every word author Lillian Hellman wrote was a lie, "including 'and' and 'the.'" Hellman immediately filed a libel suit, charging that McCarthy's comment was not a legitimate conversation on public issues but an attack on her reputation. This intriguing book offers a many-faceted examination of Hellman's infamous suit and explores what it tells us about tensions between privacy and self-expression, freedom and restraint in public language, and what can and cannot be said in public in America.

Book Synopsis The Calm in the Late Afternoon by : Chuck Culver
Download or read book The Calm in the Late Afternoon written by Chuck Culver and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Towering Novel! Chuck Culver's Best Work. Retired doctor David Somerset, grief-stricken with the recent loss of his beloved wife, is trying painfully to follow through with plans they both made to the English Cotswolds and to restore a 600-hundred-year-old cottage. Although he makes friends with a number of colorful locals in the town of Winchcomb, he is still agonizing over his loss. Then rescue arrives in the form of a mysterious metal box a workman finds in the walls of his cottage. Inside the box, straight from the 16th century, is a rare Tyndale Bible, the first English translation of the Scriptures and the cause of Thomas Tyndale's branding as a heretic by the Catholic Church and his burning at the stake. Also enclosed is the diary of a hitherto unknown priest named Father Christopher Moore, who was Tyndale's best friend and later a chaplain in the court of Henry VIII. The Calm in the Late Afternoon is one of those novels that is more than a read. It's a joyful immersion in life.
