Book excerpt: A New York Times Best Art Book of 2019 “A riveting book . . . few stones are left unturned.”—Roberta Smith’s “Top Art Books of 2019,” The New York Times This fascinating and enlightening study of the tie-on pocket combines materiality and gender to provide new insight into the social history of women’s everyday lives—from duchesses and country gentry to prostitutes and washerwomen—and to explore their consumption practices, sociability, mobility, privacy, and identity. A wealth of evidence reveals unexpected facets of the past, bringing women’s stories into intimate focus. “What particularly interests Burman and Fennetaux is the way in which women of all classes have historically used these tie-on pockets as a supplementary body part to help them negotiate their way through a world that was not built to suit them.”—Kathryn Hughes, The Guardian “A brilliant book.”—Ulinka Rublack, Times Literary Supplement

Book Synopsis Stars In My Pocket and Other Stories by : Julie Khristie
Download or read book Stars In My Pocket and Other Stories written by Julie Khristie and published by . This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This heartwarming book that speaks about hope and healing comes in a collection of short stories that deal with love and loss, death and deliverance. We journey through life carrying with us the stories that we do not readily share to others. And so we live, endure and patiently go through the humdrum routine of this world. But it is in the mundane things that change often happens; for deliverance always comes to hearts who hold on to hope. Sometimes deliverance comes through mere acceptance. Sometimes it comes through a person, a place, a circumstance or sometimes it comes solely through the welcoming of hope. And often, it comes, garbed not in an extravagant declaration, but in a simple and quiet realization: Begin again, dream again, live again. These are the stars we carry in our pockets.

Book Synopsis The Shape of a Pocket by : John Berger
Download or read book The Shape of a Pocket written by John Berger and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-09-09 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Booker Prize-winning author John Berger, a collection of essays that explores the relationship of art and artists and includes examinations of the work of Brancusi, Degas, Michelangelo, and Frida Kahlo, among others. The pocket in question is a small pocket of resistance. A pocket is formed when two or more people come together in agreement. The resistance is against the inhumanity of the New World Economic Order. The people coming together are the reader, me, and those the essays are about–Rembrandt, Paleolithic cave painters, a Romanian peasant, ancient Egyptians, an expert in the loneliness of a certain hotel bedroom, dogs at dusk, a man in a radio station. And unexpectedly, our exchanges strengthen each of us in our conviction that what is happening in the world today is wrong, and that what is often said about it is a lie. I’ve never written a book with a greater sense of urgency. –John Berger

Download or read book Exile and Pride written by Eli Clare and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, the groundbreaking Exile and Pride is essential to the history and future of disability politics. Eli Clare's revelatory writing about his experiences as a white disabled genderqueer activist/writer established him as one of the leading writers on the intersections of queerness and disability and permanently changed the landscape of disability politics and queer liberation. With a poet's devotion to truth and an activist's demand for justice, Clare deftly unspools the multiple histories from which our ever-evolving sense of self unfolds. His essays weave together memoir, history, and political thinking to explore meanings and experiences of home: home as place, community, bodies, identity, and activism. Here readers will find an intersectional framework for understanding how we actually live with the daily hydraulics of oppression, power, and resistance. At the root of Clare's exploration of environmental destruction and capitalism, sexuality and institutional violence, gender and the body politic, is a call for social justice movements that are truly accessible to everyone. With heart and hammer, Exile and Pride pries open a window onto a world where our whole selves, in all their complexity, can be realized, loved, and embraced.
