Book Synopsis So Famous and So Gay by : Jeff Solomon
Download or read book So Famous and So Gay written by Jeff Solomon and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gertrude Stein (1874–1946) and Truman Capote (1924–1984) should not have been famous. They made their names between the Oscar Wilde trial and Stonewall, when homosexuality meant criminality and perversion. And yet both Stein and Capote, openly and exclusively gay, built their outsize reputations on works that directly featured homosexuality and a queer aesthetic. How did these writers become mass-market celebrities while other gay public figures were closeted or censored? And what did their fame mean for queer writers and readers, and for the culture in general? Jeff Solomon explores these questions in So Famous and So Gay. Celebrating lesbian partnership, The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas was published in 1933 and rocketed Stein, the Jewish lesbian intellectual avant-garde American expatriate, to international stardom and a mass-market readership. Fifteen years later, when Capote published Other Voices, Other Rooms, a novel of explicit homosexual sex and love, his fame itself became famous. Through original archival research, Solomon traces the construction and impact of the writers’ public personae from a gay-affirmative perspective. He historically situates author photos, celebrity gossip, and other ephemera to explain how Stein and Capote expressed homosexuality and negotiated homophobia through the fleeting depiction of what could not be directly written—maneuvers that other gay writers such as Gore Vidal, Tennessee Williams, and James Baldwin could not manage at the time. Finally So Famous and So Gay reveals what Capote’s and Stein’s debuts, Other Voices, Other Rooms and Three Lives, held for queer readers in terms of gay identity and psychology—and for gay authors who wrote in their wake.

Download or read book Amani Haki Yetu written by Adam Hummel and published by Partridge Publishing Africa. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On December 30, 2007, President Mwai Kibaki was declared the winner of Kenyas presidential election. Within minutes of this declaration, rioting erupted across Kenya, from the coast of the Indian Ocean to the banks of Lake Victoria. These riots lasted two months, claiming the lives of nearly 1500 Kenyans, and leaving more than half a million internally displaced. Hostility to this extent, not seen in Kenyas modern history, illustrated the divisive nature of Kenyas tribalism, and left an entire generation questioning whether Kenya would once again become one of Africas most peaceful nations. Realizing the role they had in ensuring a peaceful future, Kenyas youths, who comprise a majority of the population, began to lead, and grassroots organizations soon began to materialize throughout Kenyas countryside. This book details the efforts made by one such group of Kenyan youths who, together with a young Canadian, came together with the goal of helping to build a sustainable peace in Kenya. It details the background to Kenyas 2008 post-election violence, the early efforts leading to the formation of the Youth Ambassadors for Peace, and steps taken to engage both the potential and ability of those who wish to help. Through youth empowerment and the belief that diversity creates strength, these Kenyans demonstrate the power of a small group of thoughtful and dedicated individuals, united by their desire to find peace before Kenyas next elections are held in March 2013.

Now, armed with an ancient longbow, a few arrows, and not much else, Kendra heads back into the bushes, looking for something legitimate to kill.

Also on the scene is Gretania, a murderous mail-order-bride with a wild scheme to rip-off a million dollar payout intended for the local Native American tribe. Aided by street-toughened twins Torque and Recoil, the red-headed Russian might just get away with it. Race and Kendra, pulled in by mistake, swing into action. But they just may be in over their heads...especially once the snow storm hits. For fans of the original "KickBack," look out--this time IT IS hunting season!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French women didn't invent happiness. But they know a thing or two about joie de vivre--being alive to each delicious moment.

Now Jamie draws on everything French women have taught her and shows you how to: Buy and consume less--and enjoy more Look like a million Euros on a few francs Find time to be alone Flirt à la française Rediscover your own mystery Perfection isn't attainable, but happiness always is. And this uplifting, revelatory book shows every woman how to embrace it--and savor it.
Download or read book Shine Sir? written by Ric Rivera and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-06-09 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This tale is about a boy who lost his father to an auto-train accident at age eight. The story traverses his climb from the lowest rung in life while shining shoes on the dusty streets. The tale leads through his many experiences in life. His determination and drive were fed by his refusal to accept his lowly position on the totem pole of fate. This drove him to vow that he would never accept that status. His faith, his belief that God would help him, came in the form of a gift from God, literally a message he took as a sign that God would always be there for him. The "message" was a candy bar he found in a sealed loaf of bread, literally an answer to an eight-year-old's prayers. He was almost washed overboard while on his Navy ship as angry waves tore his body from the guide wires on the bow of the ship. He knew clearly then that he had been in God's hands. This is a story of perseverance, of dogged determination, and a fixed mindset to never, never, never give up! It is a story about helping others, about values, and about respect for the good and the bad in our midst. It is a story of struggles, of major victories, and tragic losses. It is a story of a deep and abiding faith that powered his drive to recovery. It is a story about adventure, growth, intrigue, and incredible experiences-Shine Sir?

Margo has to pinch herself: there's talk of her getting an Oscar nom for her first film role, and she's living with the Dane Forrest, the gorgeous movie star millions—including herself—swoon over. But if the public finds out about their domestic arrangement, her career will be over. The studio has a plan to fix it all . . . but is Margo prepared to pay the price? Gabby's drinking is out of control, but who cares? She's bored and depressed. She needs someone who will treat her like the woman she is beneath the silly stage costumes and pigtails.

"In this scintillating sequel to Starstruck, the stakes are higher, the fights are cattier, and the drama soars sky-high . . . more twists and turns than Mulholland Drive. Secrets abound, and enough is held back to ensure that the next volume will have plenty left to reveal. This sizzling sequel definitely delivers the goods: think Valley of the Dolls meets Gossip Girl."--Kirkus Reviews
