Book Synopsis The Housekeeper and the Professor by : Yoko Ogawa
Download or read book The Housekeeper and the Professor written by Yoko Ogawa and published by Picador. This book was released on 2009-02-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He is a brilliant math Professor with a peculiar problem--ever since a traumatic head injury, he has lived with only eighty minutes of short-term memory. She is an astute young Housekeeper--with a ten-year-old son--who is hired to care for the Professor. And every morning, as the Professor and the Housekeeper are introduced to each other anew, a strange and beautiful relationship blossoms between them. Though he cannot hold memories for long (his brain is like a tape that begins to erase itself every eighty minutes), the Professor's mind is still alive with elegant equations from the past. And the numbers, in all of their articulate order, reveal a sheltering and poetic world to both the Housekeeper and her young son. The Professor is capable of discovering connections between the simplest of quantities--like the Housekeeper's shoe size--and the universe at large, drawing their lives ever closer and more profoundly together, even as his memory slips away. Yoko Ogawa's The Housekeeper and the Professor is an enchanting story about what it means to live in the present, and about the curious equations that can create a family.

Book Synopsis Shout, Sister, Shout! by : Gayle Wald
Download or read book Shout, Sister, Shout! written by Gayle Wald and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2007-01-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before "women in rock" became a media catchphrase, Rosetta Tharpe proved in spectacular fashion that women could rock. Born in Cotton Plant, Arkansas, in 1915, she was gospel's first superstar and the preeminent crossover figure of its "golden age" (1945-1965). Everyone who saw her perform said she could "make that guitar talk." Shout, Sister, Shout! is the first biography of this trailblazing performer who influenced scores of popular musicians, from Elvis Presley and Little Richard to Eric Clapton and Bonnie Raitt. An African American guitar virtuoso, Tharpe defied categorization. Blues singer, gospel singer, folk artist, and rock-and-roller, she "went electric" in the late 1930s, amazing northern and southern, U.S. and international, and white and black audiences with her charisma and skill. Ambitious and relentlessly public, Tharpe even staged her own wedding as a gospel concert-in a stadium holding 20,000 people! Wald's eye-opening biography, which draws on the memories of over 150 people who knew or worked with Tharpe, introduces us to this intriguing and forgotten musical heavyweight, forever altering our understanding of both women in rock and U.S. popular music.

Download or read book Sister Scholars written by Ellyn Lyle and published by Dio Press Incorporated. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, academe has been regarded as a male space owing to the assumption that knowledge is masculine. Further complicating this inequity is the tendency of academe to favour authoritarian perspectives largely associated with male ways of knowing. As women academics struggle to negotiate hospitable professional spaces, they are often pulled between conflicting senses of self. Scholarly writing within disciplinary contexts is one way that women can employ agency against patriarchy to author their own sense of self. In this spirit, this peer-reviewed collection aims to bring awareness to the unique experiences of women in the academy. This is the book that I wish I had when I began my career navigating my life as scholar, artist, and mother in the academe. Sister Scholars is packed with insights from diverse lived experiences and various methodologies and brings forth radical ways of being attentive to one's voice, while not sacrificing any parts of oneself. Be prepared to explore the terroir of a rich fertile land and discover a hospitable place that is both creative and critical and spins a new world. I celebrate this book with all my being and commend it as a pinnacle of finding a way to be a scholar that is deeply human and fully responsive to all the fabrics of our lives. Celeste Snowber, PhD, dancer, poet, scholar Professor, Simon Fraser University Sister Scholar weaves a thoughtful and reflexive thread through what often feels like disparate and competing roles for academic women - daughter, activist, mother, sister, friend, teacher, scholar, partner, and leader. A unifying theme throughout the book is that, as a Sister Scholar, there is a continual and complex negotiation of space, identity, and personal resources. It's often emotional labour. I located myself on every page and, in doing so, experienced a deep sense of connectedness with the authors and their words. The idea of a sisterhood was prominent. Sister Scholar is an important read for academics and not just those that identify as women. Locating ourselves in the experience with others is liberating and affirming and so too is the work of understanding the experiences of others. Donna Kotsopoulos, PhD Professor & Dean Western University

Book Synopsis The Weird Sisters by : Eleanor Brown
Download or read book The Weird Sisters written by Eleanor Brown and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-01-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beloved New York Times bestseller from acclaimed author Eleanor Brown about three sisters who love each other, but just don't happen to like each other very much. Three sisters have returned to their childhood home, reuniting the eccentric Andreas family. Here, books are a passion (there is no problem a library card can't solve) and TV is something other people watch. Their father—a professor of Shakespeare who speaks almost exclusively in verse—named them after the Bard's heroines. It's a lot to live up to. The sisters each have a hard time communicating with their parents and their lovers, but especially with one another. What can the shy homebody eldest sister, the fast-living middle child, and the bohemian youngest sibling have in common? Only that none has found life to be what was expected; and now, faced with their parents' frailty and their own personal disappointments, not even a book can solve what ails them...

Book Synopsis Liberating Sanctuary by : Jane Lamm Carroll
Download or read book Liberating Sanctuary written by Jane Lamm Carroll and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred years ago, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet founded a college designed to unite women’s intellectual and spiritual development: The College of St. Catherine, now St. Catherine’s University. Is such an institution, a women-built and women-led Catholic college, an anachronism today? How has a century of changes in the Catholic Church and women’s roles affected St. Catherine’s? Addressing these and other questions in a scholarly and engaging manner, Liberating Sanctuary: 100 Years of Women’s Education at the College of St. Catherine challenges prevailing assumptions about the history of women’s education. The essays in this book, edited by Jane Lamm Carroll, Joanne Cavallaro, and Sharon Doherty, examine key figures, decisions, and ideas over the College's 100 year history, linking the story through a central theme: the paradox of institutional goals that seek both to liberate and constrain women. Since its founding, St. Catherine's has promoted women's leadership and autonomy, sometimes by design, sometimes by accident, sometimes despite stated aims.
Download or read book Weird Sister written by Kate Pullinger and published by Kate Pullinger Books. This book was released on 2014-04-05 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agnes Samuel is an American, beautiful, witty, cool, the kind of woman people remember. She arrives among the respectable citizens of Warboys like a cat among the pigeons. Before long she has insinuated herself into the affections of the sleepy Fenland village and into the heart of the ancient Throckmorton family, a family that harbours a dark secret. Nobody remembers another Agnes Samuel from long ago, a frightened girl betrayed by her wealthy neighbours and hanged as a witch. Weird Sister is a chilling tale of revenge across generations that will send shivers your spine. Praise for Weird Sister: “A perfect, gruesome, little tale” Independent on Sunday “Daphne du Maurier retold by Margaret Atwood” Times Literary Supplement “Pullinger has created a thrilling combination of Rebecca and Mrs Danvers” Independent “Pullinger’s exercise in gothic fantasy is as seductively clever as its heroine." Sunday Times “The real possibility that, this time, good will not overcome evil keeps you reading.” Daily Telegraph “This is a bewitching yarn, perfect reading for a dark winter’s night with the wind howling at the door.” Daily Mail
