Book excerpt: At the age of eleven, the daughter of a Sicilian sharecropper, Maria Grammatico, entered the San Carlo Institute in the mountaintop town of Erice, an orphanage run by nuns who were famous throughout Sicily for their almond pastries, but who were less adept at dealing with young girls. After ten years of hard work and harsh discipline, Maria emerged with the secrets of the nuns’ pastries hidden inside her head. This is the story of her carefree country childhood—her Dickensian life in the orphanage with no heat, no running water, and only wood-burning ovens—and her triumphs as an entrepreneur and a world-famous pastry chef. Bitter Almonds includes 46 of the recipes that she ‘stole’ from the nuns, committed to writing for the first time in these pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alejandro Oran, known to his friends as Alex, was not only successful in his business but, also in his personal life, especially with the opposite sex. Since he was a teenage boy growing in Puerto Rico, he had more girlfriends than he could handle. His looks played an important part in his luck and he was not indifferent to the attention he generated among his female school peers. Natalia was one of his conquest during his younger years but being the studious girl she was, the relationship did not last because school had not been one of Alexs priorities growing up. Natty, as she was known to her friends, was serious about her relationship with Alex, but he had opted for the playboy life style and was committed to no one in particular. Tired of his flirtatious behavior, she made a decision to end the relationship and her chance to succeed with giving him up, came when her family left the island and moved permanently to United States. As years passed she went on with her life and tried her best not to think about Alex. But back in the island Alex had always wondered what happened to Natty, but more importantly he wanted to find her. His reasons were a surprise to him after realizing that he was truly in love with her. His strong desire to find her made him make a decision to come to United States and look for her after finding out that she lived in New York. Taking advantage that his company was expanding in Manhattan, he volunteered to come and preside the new branch. Knowing that Natty was somewhere in the city, he started his search and hired a private detective. Neither Alex nor Natty imagined what fate had in store for them and after arriving in New York, his life took an unexpected turn when he finally found her.

Book Synopsis Unsettling Nostalgia in Spain and Chile by : Lisa DiGiovanni
Download or read book Unsettling Nostalgia in Spain and Chile written by Lisa DiGiovanni and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-11-08 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unsettling Nostalgia in Spain and Chile: Longing for Resistance in Literature and Film reframes nostalgia to analyze how writers and filmmakers have responded to 20th-century dictatorial violence and loss in Spain and Chile. By reaching beyond reductive definitions that limit nostalgia to a conservative desire to defend traditional power hierarchies, Lisa DiGiovanni captures the complexity of a critically conscious type of longing and form of transmission that she terms “unsettling nostalgia.” Using literature and film, DiGiovanni illustrates how unsettling nostalgia imbues representations of pre-dictatorial mobilization during the Second Spanish Republic (1931–1939) and the Chilean Popular Unity (1970–1973), as well as depictions of clandestine resistance to the Franco dictatorship (1939–1975) and the Pinochet regime (1973–1989). Positive memories of efforts to upend power hierarchies coexist with retrospective critiques that fissure romanticized views of revolutionary struggle. Unsettling nostalgic works engender deeper understandings of the complexities of political movements and how stories of resistance are meaningful today. By calling attention to the parallels between nostalgic modes that resist multiple injustices based on gender, class, and sexuality, this book traces an evocative continuity between Spain and Chile that goes beyond the initial work that links forms of militaristic authoritarianism. Scholars of Latin American studies, film studies, literary studies, history, women's and gender studies, memory studies, and rhetoric will find this book particularly useful.

Book Synopsis Diasporic (dis)locations by : Brinda J. Mehta
Download or read book Diasporic (dis)locations written by Brinda J. Mehta and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indo-Caribbean women writers are virtually invisible in the literary landscape because of cultural and social inhibitions and literary chauvinism. Until recently, the richness and particularities of the experiences of these writers in the field of literature and literary studies were compromised by stereotypical representations of the Indo-Caribbean women that were narrated from a purely masculine or an Afrocentric point of view. This book fills an important gap in an important but underestimated emergent field. The book explores how cultural traditions and female modes of opposition to patriarchal control were transplanted from India and rearticulated in the Indo-Caribbean diaspora to determine whether the idea of cultural continuity is, in fact, a postcolonial reality or a fictionalized myth. kala pani, to Trinidad and Guyana provided courage, determination, self-reliance and sexual independence to their literary granddaughters who in turn used the kala pani as the necessary language and frame of reference to position Indo-Caribbean female subjectivity with equating writing as a pubic declaration of one's identity and right to claim creative agency. The book is of critical interest to those interested in twentieth-century literary studies, Caribbean studies, gender studies, ethnic studies and cultural studies.
