Book excerpt: I wasn’t looking for anything. I was content with the waves beneath my skin, the salt in my hair. Until Him. Until those tattooed fingers painted my life black. Until the strings on his guitar tied me to him forever. My name is Luna Perry. Could I ever shine bright enough in his eternal darkness to bring him back to me? I was numb. I wasn’t living, not really. The world had been wiped from under my feet and the sun had forever set on any future I thought I might have. Who knew that one day the darkness would outshine any light the sun could have given me? My name is Reid Archer. And this is my story.
Book Synopsis Women's Movement by : Heidi Slettedahl MacPherson
Download or read book Women's Movement written by Heidi Slettedahl MacPherson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-07-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women’s Movement critically explores the transgressive potential of feminist escape narratives and argues that they are, almost by definition, radically different from paradigmatic male escape narratives. While definitions of escape are necessarily broad, they have too often excluded the ambiguous escape – the escape most closely associated with the female. Indeed, feminist escape narratives often resist a happy ending, and Women’s Movement argues that these narrative closures reflect the changing face of feminism, as it sheds its old certainties, is faced with a monumental “backlash” and is refigured as the potentially less threatening “postfeminism”. Resisting the automatic association of “escape” with “escapist,” Women’s Movement analyzes male adventure and quest narratives, including Moby-Dick, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Blood Meridian, and Deliverance, before turning to a range of feminist texts. While being the first book to give critical attention to some postfeminist novels, Women’s Movement more often acts as a channel for offering different ways of approaching familiar feminist texts, including, among others, Marian Engel’s Bear, Atwood’s Surfacing and The Handmaid’s Tale, Joan Barfoot’s Gaining Ground and Dancing in the Dark, Anne Tyler’s Earthly Possessions and Ladder of Years, Marilynne Robinson’s Housekeeping, Erica Jong’s Fear of Flying and Margaret Laurence’s The Diviners.

Book excerpt: Laura Lee White-Hawk, 28 and without kin or close relationships, has taken leave from her job with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Now she pursues her dream of becoming a nature writer while living in a dilapidated house on a wooded peninsula of the Lake Erie shore. The property is the bequest of the woman who rescued Laura in her youth from loveless foster care and reared her to be self-sufficient and courageous in the face of challenges. Life in her new home tests her resources and resolve. An unexpected challenge enters Laura's life when David, an eleven-year-old boy fleeing a home life of abuse and neglect, beguiles her into a collaboration that is both offbeat and clandestine. Laura sympathizes with David's fierce opposition to becoming a ward of social services, and perhaps unwisely and definitely illegally harbors the boy. Soon David wins a place in Laura's heart as cook, companion, co-worker, student, and inspiration. She realizes he fills her life with special meaning. The secret comes out when David's past embroils him in a frightening and dangerous situation. Can Laura's new acquaintances and David's native courage and intelligence see them through the tough times?

Download or read book Anne Tyler written by Paul Bail and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1998-10-15 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anne Tyler's novels strike a deep chord of responsiveness in her readers because her novels bring to life contemporary characters to whom we can instantly relate and in whose experiences we can see mirrored our own. Tyler's novels deal with the human experience: relationships between marital partners, between parents and children...between siblings; the meaning of love; the nature of identity; impermanence and change; and loss and continuity. In Anne Tyler novels, life is a complexity whose texture is built out of multiple layers. In this insightful study, Paul Bail shows us how Tyler constructs the complex reality of life through character, narrative point of view, theme, and literary devices. With the exception of Tyler's earliest two novels, which she prefers to forget, a chapter is devoted to each of the other novels she has written. Among the twelve are her unforgettable novels of family relationships and love...loss and renewal, such as Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant, The Accidental Tourist, and Breathing Lessons. Also included is an analysis of Tyler's most recent novel, A Patchwork Planet. Following a biographical chapter that relates Tyler's life to her work, Bail discusses the novels within the literary tradition of Southern regional literature, women's literature, and popular culture. He also explores the influence of religion on her writing. Each novel is discussed in an individual chapter that includes sections on plot, characters, themes, literary devices, historical setting, and point of view. Bail also offers an alternate critical approach from which to read the novel, such as feminist or multicultural criticism. This study is ideal for students and readers of Anne Tyler and will enrich the reading and appreciation of her novels.

Download or read book Playing Hurt written by John Saunders and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2017-08-08 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time ever, the popular late host of ESPN's The Sports Reporters and ABC's college football openly discusses a lifelong battle with depression. During his three decades on ESPN and ABC, John Saunders became one of the nation's most respected and beloved sportscasters. In this moving, jarring, and ultimately inspiring memoir, Saunders discusses his troubled childhood, the traumatic brain injury he suffered in 2011, and the severe depression that nearly cost him his life. As Saunders writes, Playing Hurt is not an autobiography of a sports celebrity but a memoir of a man facing his own mental illness, and emerging better off for the effort. I will take you into the heart of my struggle with depression, including insights into some of its causes, its consequences, and its treatments. I invite you behind the facade of my apparently "perfect" life as a sportscaster, with a wonderful wife and two healthy, happy adult daughters. I have a lot to be thankful for, and I am truly grateful. But none of these things can protect me or anyone else from the disease of depression and its potentially lethal effects. Mine is a rare story: that of a black man in the sports industry openly grappling with depression. I will share the good, the bad, and the ugly, including the lengths I've gone to to conceal my private life from the public. So why write a book? Because I want to end the pain and heartache that comes from leading a double life. I also want to reach out to the millions of people, especially men, who think they're alone and can't ask for help. John Saunders died suddenly on August 10, 2016, from an enlarged heart, diabetes, and other complications. This book is his ultimate act of generosity to help those who suffer from mental illness, and those who love them.
Download or read book Home Matters written by R. Rubenstein and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-02-23 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its typically regressive associations with homesickness, the longing associated with nostalgia may also function progressively as a vehicle for imaginatively 'fixing' the past in two senses: securing and mending or repairing. Considering fiction by two British and six American women writers of different generations and ethnicities, this study explores tensions between home and exile, insider and outsider, longing and belonging, loss and recovery. Rubenstein argues that nostalgia functions narratively as a strategy for interrogating not only notions of home, homesickness, and homeland but also cultural historical dislocation, aging, and moral responsibility. These narratives re-frame a significant locus of concern in contemporary (female) experience: personal and/or cultural dis-placement and longing for home are ultimately transmuted - imaginatively, at least - by a restorative vision that enables healing and emotional repair.
