Book Synopsis Sisters and Lovers by : Megan Jennaway
Download or read book Sisters and Lovers written by Megan Jennaway and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2002-11-19 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich ethnography in a rural village in North Bali illuminates the construction of desire by exploring cultural practices regarding courtship and marriage, motherhood, and connubial fidelity. The way these cornerstones of daily life are played out in the alternative arenas of tourism and illness highlight pervasive gender disparities in the expression of sexuality. By allowing key informants to tell their stories in their own voices and by skillfully interweaving fictionalized interludes, the author gives us not only a rigorously researched ethnography but an intimate and fully realized portrait of Balinese women's innermost desires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Amar, a secretariat clerk, bumps into Nisha Gulati, ex-model, in a Delhi shopping mall, a new vista opens for him. Because of his androgynous look, Nisha suggests that Amar walks the ramp as a female model in her designer friend Richa Sharmas fashion show. Initially reluctant, Amar finally agrees to Nishas bizarre plan and, with the latters grooming, successfully debuts as a model, Varsha, earning a handsome appearance fee as well. Son of a poor village priest, Amar is dominated by her elder sisters who dont appreciate their one and only brother catwalking in female attire. His sisters, however, have their own agenda in which Amar has to play a supportive role. Nisha also has her hidden agenda: she wants Amar to fill up the vacant slot of a toyboy for his gay husband, Vinod, who is an architect by profession with a passion for Feng Shui and Vastu. Amar doesnt enjoy Vinods advances but has to tolerate him because he loves Nisha. Even as Amar tries hard to sort out his tangled relationships with Nisha and Vinod, his weird sisters come to stay with him, one after another, and make his life difficult with their idiosyncrasies. When he finds Nisha snorting cocaine in a party, Amar opts out of Nishas glitzy world and returns to his humble moorings. Even his sisters abandon Amar and he descends to a miserable existence, surviving on the charity of his neighbours. Its Nisha who finally rescues Amar from a total breakdown. Sisters And Lovers is a comic novel that takes a sneaky peek at the modelling profession and delves deep into the vagaries of familial relationships that often turn out to be hilarious as well as problematic.

Meanwhile, Luba’s children―genius Socorro, recently out-and-proud Doralis, and prickly Maricela―show that a talent for trouble may be hereditary. Luba’s sisters, Fritz and Petra, swap lovers (as usual), but . . . are Fritz and family friend Pipo sittin’ in a tree?

Book Synopsis The Wednesday Sisters by : Meg Waite Clayton
Download or read book The Wednesday Sisters written by Meg Waite Clayton and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-05-05 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Friendship, loyalty, and love lie at the heart of this beautifully written, poignant, and sweeping novel of five women who, over the course of four decades, come to redefine what it means to be family. “This generous and inventive book is a delight to read, an evocation of the power of friendship to sustain, encourage, and embolden us. Join the sisterhood!”—Karen Joy Fowler, author of The Jane Austen Book Club For thirty-five years, Frankie, Linda, Kath, Brett, and Ally have met every Wednesday at the park near their homes in Palo Alto, California. Defined when they first meet by what their husbands do, the young homemakers and mothers are far removed from the Summer of Love that has enveloped most of the Bay Area in 1967. These “Wednesday Sisters” seem to have little in common: Frankie is a timid transplant from Chicago, brutally blunt Linda is a remarkable athlete, Kath is a Kentucky debutante, quiet Ally has a secret, and quirky, ultra-intelligent Brett wears little white gloves with her miniskirts. But they are bonded by a shared love of both literature—Fitzgerald, Eliot, Austen, du Maurier, Plath, and Dickens–and the Miss America Pageant, which they watch together every year. As the years roll on and their children grow, the quintet forms a writers circle to express their hopes and dreams through poems, stories, and, eventually, books. Along the way, they experience history in the making: Vietnam, the race for the moon, and a women’s movement that challenges everything they have ever thought about themselves, while at the same time supporting one another through changes in their personal lives brought on by infidelity, longing, illness, failure, and success. Humorous and moving, The Wednesday Sisters is a literary feast for book lovers that earns a place among those popular works that honor the joyful, mysterious, unbreakable bonds between friends.
Book Synopsis Disorderly Sisters by : Leila Silvana May
Download or read book Disorderly Sisters written by Leila Silvana May and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians and literary critics have long understood the crucial significance of the family to the nineteenth-century middle-class sensibility, but almost all critical analyses to date have concentrated on the "vertical" pole of the familial axis - the parent-child relationship - and very little on the "horizontal" pole - the sibling bond. This book looks beyond these analyses to show that at the core of nineteenth-century domestic ideology is the figure of the sister."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis Sisters and Wives by : Karen Brodkin
Download or read book Sisters and Wives written by Karen Brodkin and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1979 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait de l'introduction : "The search for women's overall ar fundamental position long ago ar far wawy is an outcome of the confrontation between social darwinist anthropology and the feminist and socialist movements over sexism here and now. ... Women have been fighting for equl rights for well over one hundred years. The center of the struggle lies in changing institutionalized pattterns of behaviors and allocations of social roles. All behavior is informed and shaped by ideas, by way of seeing the world, as well as by standards for what is right and wrong, moral and immoral. A marxist and feminist anthropology can affrim the reality of equality in other times and places and increase our understanding of how to obtain such a social order for ourselves. This book is an attempt to develop such a way of seeing and of informing our actions."
