Download or read book And Venus Is Blue written by Mary Hood and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2001-04-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Hood is considered a "Southern" writer, her sensibilities are universal. In this impressive collection of short fiction, she uses simple phrases to capture a character perfectly; at the same time, she knows when to unleash her controlled prose, freeing it for poetic evocations of landscapes or moments. Above all, she tells good stories. "After Moore" traces the dissolution of a marriage as told to a marriage counselor by all the family members. Hood manages to be both funny and perceptive as she adopts the voice of each character in turn. The title piece is an ambitious novella in which Hood's experiments with time do not quite work, but she deftly renders a family's complex relationships and at the same time creates the ambience of a mill-town community. Hood, who won the 1984 Flannery O'Connor Award for her first book of stories, How Far She Went, is a talented writer with a distinctive, memorable voice.
Book Synopsis Venus In Blue Jeans by : Susan Abel Lieberman
Download or read book Venus In Blue Jeans written by Susan Abel Lieberman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2012-12-11 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For generations, mothers and daughters have struggled to say the right thing -- or have said nothing at all -- when the time has come to discuss sex. VENUS IN BLUE JEANS brings refreshing hope and guidance for every mother who has been undone by such questions as "Mom, what’s French kissing" or "What’s oral sex?" or who has agonized over her teenage daughter’s newfound interest in boys. In this wise and radiant book, Nathalie Bartle tackles some of the toughest topics of sexual education: What do girls know about sex? When is the right time to begin talking with them about sex? How can mothers get the conversation right? Today’s teenagers face enormous pressures to become sexually active; by age nineteen more than 50 percent of American girls have had intercourse. From billboards to cyberspace, society is awash in sexual images. Parents assume that teens possess abundant sexual knowledge, but information gleaned from the media or the teenage grapevine can be woefully inaccurate: many teens list AIDS as the only sexually transmitted disease; others assume they can’t get pregnant "the first time." We need a new dialogue for this generation of young women, Bartle argues. Combining her own stories of raising a daughter with the generously honest voices of mothers and daughters who have struggled firsthand with this topic, she illuminates the invaluable role that mothers can play in their daughters’ sexual education -- without encouraging them to be sexually active. Adolescent girls crave information, but they may be too afraid or embarrassed to ask for it, worried that their moms will think less of them or assume they are preparing for sex. The rich stories here help dispel common myths, encourage candid conversation, and reveal the importance of placing sexual information within the broader context of relationships and a moral framework. Filled with strategies, keen understanding, and a warm sense of humor, VENUS IN BLUE JEANS will inspire mothers and others to persevere with these vital conversations and will empower girls to think of their sexuality as a natural part of adolescence rather than something they need be defiant about or shamed by. This is an indispensable book for anyone concerned with guiding today’s young women safely through the upsets, infatuations, and intimacies of adolescence.

Download or read book Blue Venus written by Lisa Russ Spaar and published by Karen and Michael Braziller Bo. This book was released on 2004 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Whether exploring devotion or eros, Spaar exposes "the hungry wound of wanting" that is central to the human spirit at its most vulnerable. In doing so, she confronts forces we have assumed are irrefutable - among them, sleeplessness, channeled through such figures as Virginia Woolf, Thomas Merton, and the biblical Adam. Spaar is enraptured by the sound of language and the ways in which it brings us closer to ourselves and to our disparate longings."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Eulba written by Michele Duva and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eulba, a physicist and mathematician exploring modern theories on the universe, is equally immersed in the myths of the Mayan culture. She enjoys a unique romantic relationship with her boyfriend, Beloved. They are entangled in a relationship imbued with bliss, love, math, myth, and science, which remarkably, continues even after his ill-fated death. Through a series of life altering events, Eulba shuttles between myth and science, accepting the myths of the Maya, and finally entering the myth itself through an act of self-sacrifice at the end of the Mayan Long Count calendar. She comes to understand that myth and science mirror each other while representing the same reality from different vantage points. Nature remains the same while our beliefs and knowledge change. Eulba and Beloved’s everlasting, unbounded love becomes an underlying powerful creative force that permeates everything, embracing both the Mayan myths and parallel universes.

Book excerpt: The award-winning, New York Times bestselling literary masterpiece of Shirley Hazzard—the story of two beautiful orphan sisters whose fates are as moving and wonderful, and yet as predestined, as the transits of the planets themselves A Penguin Classic Considered "one of the great English-language novels of the twentieth century" (The Paris Review), The Transit of Venus follows Caroline and Grace Bell as they leave Australia to begin a new life in post-war England. From Sydney to London, New York, and Stockholm, and from the 1950s to the 1980s, the two sisters experience seduction and abandonment, marriage and widowhood, love and betrayal. With exquisite, breathtaking prose, Australian novelist Shirley Hazzard tells the story of the displacements and absurdities of modern life. The result is at once an intricately plotted Greek tragedy, a sweeping family saga, and a desperate love story.

Download or read book Fisherman's Blues written by Anna Badkhen and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR AND PASTE MAGAZINE An intimate account of life in a West African fishing village, tugged by currents ancient and modern, and dependent on an ocean that is being radically transformed. The sea is broken, fishermen say. The sea is empty. The genii have taken the fish elsewhere. For centuries, fishermen have launched their pirogues from the Senegalese port of Joal, where the fish used to be so plentiful a man could dip his hand into the grey-green ocean and pull one out as big as his thigh. But in an Atlantic decimated by overfishing and climate change, the fish are harder and harder to find. Here, Badkhen discovers, all boundaries are permeable--between land and sea, between myth and truth, even between storyteller and story. Fisherman's Blues immerses us in a community navigating a time of unprecedented environmental, economic, and cultural upheaval with resilience, ingenuity, and wonder.
