LONGLISTED FOR THE 2019 ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING''Davies''s absorbing study serves up just enough sensationalism - and eccentricity - along with its serious inquiry'' SUNDAY TIMES''[A] revealing account of the jail''s 164-year history'' DAILY TELEGRAPH, 5* review''Insightful and thought-provoking and makes for a ripping good read'' JEREMY CORBYN''A much-needed and balanced history'' OBSERVER''Davies explores how society has dealt with disobedient women - from suffragettes to refugees to women seeking abortions - for decades, and how they''ve failed to silence those who won''t go down without a fight'' STYLISTSociety has never known what to do with its rebellious women. Those who defied expectations about feminine behaviour have long been considered dangerous and unnatural, and ever since the Victorian era they have been removed from public view, locked up and often forgotten about. Many of these women ended up at HM Prison Holloway, the self-proclaimed ''terror to evil-doers'' which, until its closure in 2016, was western Europe''s largest women''s prison. First built in 1852 as a House of Correction, Holloway''s women have come from all corners of the UK - whether a patriot from Scotland, a suffragette from Huddersfield, or a spy from the Isle of Wight - and from all walks of life - socialites and prostitutes, sporting stars and nightclub queens, refugees and freedom fighters. They were imprisoned for treason and murder, for begging, performing abortions and stealing clothing coupons, for masquerading as men, running brothels and attempting suicide. In Bad Girls, Caitlin Davies tells their stories and shows how women have been treated in our justice system over more than a century, what crimes - real or imagined - they committed, who found them guilty and why. It is a story of victimization and resistance; of oppression and bravery. From the women who escaped the hangman''s noose - and those who didn''t - to those who escaped Holloway altogether, Bad Girls is a fascinating look at how disobedient and defiant women changed not only the prison service, but the course of history.

Women’s transgressive behaviors and perspectives are challenging societal norms in the Arab world, giving rise to anxiety and public debate. Simultaneously, however, other Arab women are unwillingly finding themselves labeled “bad” as authority figures attempt to redirect scrutiny from serious social ills such as patriarchy and economic exploitation, or as they impose new restrictions on women’s behavior in response to uncertainty and change in society. Bad Girls of the Arab World elucidates how both intentional and unintentional transgressions make manifest the social and cultural constructs that define proper and improper behavior, as well as the social and political policing of gender, racial, and class divisions.The works collected here address the experiences of women from a range of ages, classes, and educational backgrounds who live in the Arab world and beyond. They include short pieces in which the women themselves reflect on their experiences with transgression; academic articles about performance, representation, activism, history, and social conditions; an artistic intervention; and afterwords by the acclaimed novelists Laila al-Atrash and Miral al-Tahawy. The book demonstrates that women’s transgression is both an agent and a symptom of change, a site of both resistance and repression. Showing how transnational forces such as media discourses, mobility and confinement, globalization, and neoliberalism, as well as the legacy of colonialism, shape women’s badness, Bad Girls of the Arab World offers a rich portrait of women’s varied experiences at the boundaries of propriety in the twenty-first century.

In Sarmiento Park, the green heart of Cordoba, a group of trans sex workers make their nightly rounds. When a cry comes from the dark, their leader, the 178-year-old Auntie Encarna, wades into the brambles to investigate and discovers a baby half dead from the cold. She quickly rallies the pack to save him, and they adopt the child into their fascinating surrogate family as they have so many other outcasts, including Camila. Sheltered in Auntie Encarna''s fabled pink house, they find a partial escape from the everyday threats of disease and violence, at the hands of clients, cops, and boyfriends. Telling their stories - of a mute young woman who transforms into a bird, of a Headless Man who fled his country''s wars - as well as her own journey from a toxic home in a small, poor town, Camila traces the life of this vibrant community throughout the 90s. Imbuing reality with the magic of a dark fairy tale, Bad Girls offers an intimate, nuanced portrait of trans coming-of-age that captures a universal sense of the strangeness of our bodies. It grips and entertains us while also challenging ideas about love, sexuality, gender, and identity.

Growing up in the 1990s, a young girl escapes her abusive parents–and the “ranch” they ran for “bad” girls—and becomes an advocate for teen runaways in this harrowing and heartfelt novel for fans of Joanna Goodman and Lisa Wingate.While other adolescent girls are listening to grunge rock or swooning over boy bands and movie stars, Loretta knows little of life beyond the Home for Wayward Girls, the secluded ranch where her parents run a program designed to “correct” teen girls’ “bad behavior.” Some new residents arrive with their moms and dads, while other are accompanied by transporters—people paid to forcibly deliver these “problem” teens—girls caught swearing, smoking, drinking, or kissing. Many are failed runaways desperate to leave their controlling and sometimes brutal homes. Few have any idea of the suffering that lies ahead.Loretta witnesses firsthand how the adults use abusive discipline to crush these young women’s spirits and break their wills. She understands these girls’ pain and shares it. Since childhood she’s been afraid of her father, and avoids him by spending time with the residents, secretly teaching them the survival skills they’ll need in case they manage to escape. Until the day a horrifying act of violence forces her to make her own terrible choice. Terrified and with no other option, Loretta flees the ranch and hitchhikes across the country, ending up in New York. Eventually finding safety and a sympathetic community, Loretta dedicates herself to working with lost, vulnerable, and defenseless teens, determined to prevent the same thing from happening to other girls like her.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The true story of an all-American girl, a boy from Zimbabwe, and the letter that changed both of their lives forever. It started as an assignment. Caitlin had never even heard of Zimbabwe when everyone in her class was told to write a letter to an unknown student in a distant place. Excited for the first time about homework, she went home that night and wrote about her favorite color and what sports she played, and asked her mystery pen-pal about life in Zimbabwe. Martin had never heard of Pennsylvania when he read Caitlin’s letter. He was lucky to even receive a pen-pal letter—his class only received ten letters for fifty kids! But as the top student, he got the first one. He wrote Caitlin back, talking about his siblings and soccer and saying he hoped she wrote again. These letters were the beginning of a correspondence that spanned six years and changed two lives. In this compelling dual memoir, Caitlin and Martin recount how they became best friends—and better people—through their inspiring long-distance exchange.Praise for I Will Always Write Back"An inspiring story that will change your life, too." ―Patricia McCormick, author of the National Book Award finalist Sold "A little miracle of unexpected genuineness." ―New York Times Book Review "Moving and uplifting." ―Award-winning author and journalist Peter Godwin

V roce 1913 se sufražetka Emily Wilding Davisonová vrhla pod kopyta králova koně… V roce 1970 vzaly feministky útokem Miss World… A nyní přichází kniha Caitlin Moranové… Nikdy v minulosti nebylo lepší být ženou. Máme volební právo, pilulky a od roku 1727 nás neupalují jako čarodějnice. Ale přece jen zbývá položit pár rýpavých otázek… Proč se od nás čeká, že budeme chodit na brazilskou depilaci? Měla byste zajít na botox? Je pravda, že nás muži vskrytu nenávidí? Jak máme nazývat svou vagínu? Proč bolí nosit podprsenku? A proč se vás všichni ptají, kdy už budete mít dítě? Caitlin Moranová zodpovídá tyto a další otázky v knize Jak být ženou, která je zčásti vyprávěním o životě autorky a zčásti plamennou tirádou. Moranovou sledujeme od jejích strašlivých třináctých narozenin („vážím osmdesát kilo, nemám žádné kamarády, a když mě vidí kluci, házejí na mě štěrk“) přes dospívání až po práci, striptýzové kluby, lásku, obezitu, potrat, nakupování, mateřství a ještě mnohem dál. V roce 2011 získala Caitlin Moranová ocenění Galaxy National Book Award.

If you take the five basic flavour profiles – sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami – then add the basic contrasts of a successful dish – smooth, crunchy, zingy, fatty, crispy – you soon realise that using pickles in your cooking can lay down some excellent funky beats. Having a range of pickles and preserves in your fridge is akin to your Spotify playlists: you can scan through them and, depending on your mood, use them to add verve to your dishes and your day. For Caitlin Ruth, when it comes to pickles she’s looking for taste, a contrast of flavours and a good way to make a funky dish. There are few dishes that can’t be improved by the addition of a pickle – and few fruits and vegetables that can’t be thrown into a jar in a 10-minute pickle project. With suggestions for how to eat and serve each pickle and tips on how to use them in surprising ways (think pickle-brined fries or a pickle zhoug), Caitlin puts the fun into funky to pack your plate with flavour.

In the course of his work as a vicar, Dave Tomlinson meets lots of people who describe themselves as ''not good enough'' to be a Christian, thinking that faith involves going to church a lot, or believing in a list of strange things, or following certain rules. But being a Christian isn''t about any of that - and actually, following Jesus is a lot easier, and more fun, than most people think...In this handbook to Christianity for people who describe themselves as spiritual but not necessarily religious, Dave sketches out some key practices for how to be a ''bad'' Christian, including how to talk to God without worrying about prayer, how to read the Bible without turning off your brain, and how to think with your soul rather than trying to follow rules. With beautiful illustrations from artist Rob Pepper, this is an accessible, light-hearted book, but one with a powerful invitation: to be the person you''ve always wanted to be, following a God you''ve always hoped is on your side.

Steve Biddulph’s Raising Boys was a global phenomenon. The first book in a generation to look at boys’ specific needs, parents loved its clarity and warm insights into their sons’ inner world. But today, things have changed. It’s girls that are in trouble.There has been a sudden and universal deterioration in girls’ mental health, starting in primary school and devastating the teen years.Raising Girls in the 21st Century is both a guidebook and a call-to-arms for parents. The five key stages of girlhood are laid out so that you know exactly what matters at which age, and how to build strength and connectedness into your daughter from infancy onwards.Raising Girls in the 21st Century is both fierce and tender in its mission to help girls more at every age. It’s a book for parents who love their daughters deeply, whether they are newborns, teenagers, young women – or anywhere in between.Feeling secure, becoming an explorer, getting along with others, finding her soul, and becoming a woman – at last, there is a clear map of girls’ minds that accepts no limitations, narrow roles or selling-out of your daughter’s potential or uniqueness.All the hazards are signposted – bullying, eating disorders, body image and depression, social media harms and helps – as are concrete and simple measures for both mums and dads to help prevent their daughters from becoming victims. Parenthood is restored to an exciting journey, not one worry after another, as it’s so often portrayed.Steve talks to the world’s leading voices on girls’ needs and makes their ideas clear and simple, adding his own humour and experience through stories that you will never forget. Even the illustrations, by Kimio Kubo, provide unique and moving glimpses into the inner lives of girls.Along with his fellow psychologists worldwide, Steve is angry at the exploitation and harm being done to girls today. With Raising Girls in the 21st Century he strives to spark a movement to end the trashing of girlhood; equipping parents to deal with the modern world, and getting the media off the backs of our daughters.Raising Girls in the 21st Century is powerful, practical and positive. Your heart, head and hands will be strengthened by its message.

Autorka bestselleru Jak být ženou se vrací. Starší a zkušenější — a ještě vtipnější! Caitlin Moranová před deseti lety předpokládala, že má všechny trable za sebou. V globálním bestselleru Jak být ženou se vypořádala s patriarchátem, feminismem a vůbec vším, co obnáší moderní „ženství“, a měl ji čekat spokojený dospělý život plný skvělého sexu a harmonického rodičovství. Víc se mýlit nemohla. V nové a neméně úspěšné knize se proto populární spisovatelka zaobírá výzvami, které v současnosti čekají na „zralé“ ženy. Víc než žena je břitkým průvodcem dospělostí i smířením s faktem, že seznam povinností, potřeb a potíží se bude jen prodlužovat. Ale ať už to jsou stárnoucí rodiče, dospívající a náladové děti, odcizující se partner, nebo proměňující se vlastní tělo, Moranová neztrácí nadhled a smysl pro řádně kousavý humor. Stárnutí je v jejím pojetí oslavou života — i když obnáší nudný sex, protivné puberťáky a nezničitelné faldy. Nebo možná právě proto.

Majitelku pohřebního ústavu Caitlin Doughtyovou fascinuje všudypřítomný strach ze smrti, pokouší se proto zjistit, jak o své mrtvé pečují lidé v jiných kulturách. Hledání dobré smrti je poutavá cesta do různých koutů světa, na které poznáte tajemné a působivé pohřební rituály, o kterých se v našem prostředí téměř nic neví. Na indonéském venkově sleduje muže, jak umývá a obléká tělo svého mumifikovaného dědečka, s nímž už dva roky pobývá v rodinném domě. V La Paz objevuje bolivijské natitas (oslavované lidské lebky, co kouří cigarety a plní lidem přání). V Tokiu se seznamuje s japonským zvykem kotsuage, během kterého pozůstalí vybírají čínskými hůlkami kosti svých milovaných z popela. Píše o inovátorech v oblasti pohřebních služeb, kteří zkoumají kompostování lidského těla a ekologické pohřby. Snaží se zjistit, jak by nám různé tradice, od mexického svátku Día de los Muertos až po zoroastrijský nebeský pohřeb, mohly pomoci vidět naše vlastní pohřební zvyklosti v jiném světle. Vydejte se spolu s autorkou po světě za hledáním "dobré smrti". Je to cesta možná trochu morbidní, ale dobrodružná a nesmírně zajímavá, je to příběh o mnoha překvapivých a fascinujících způsobech, kterými se lidé po celém světě vyrovnávají s velmi lidskou výzvou - se smrtí.

As a practising mortician, Caitlin Doughty has long been fascinated by our pervasive terror of dead bodies. In From Here to Eternity she sets out in search of cultures unburdened by such fears. With curiosity and morbid humour, Doughty introduces us to inspiring death-care innovators, participates in powerful death practices almost entirely unknown in the West and explores new spaces for mourning - including a futuristic glowing-Buddha columbarium in Japan, a candlelit Mexican cemetery, and America''s only open-air pyre. In doing so she expands our sense of what it means to treat the dead with ''dignity'' and reveals unexpected possibilities for our own death rituals.

Celebrate the can-do attitude of fierce girls who know how to wield a hammer, fire up a saw, and build everything from a bookshelf to a playhouse. Featuring project photographs, this guide will inspire you to pick up your power tools and make something great. Carpenter Katie Hughes frequently found that she was the only woman on construction worksites. To change that, she began teaching classes to girls ages 8-14, showing them how to drill, saw, and weld. Her classes quickly became sold out summer camps and she founded her own non-profit, Girls Build.Girls Who Build features candid and arresting photographs of forty-five girls showing off their power tools and can-do attitudes. Accompanying each girl is a profile interview where she speaks to her inspirations and favorite builds, plus tips for others starting out. Also included are building skills, techniques, and safety tips to teach girls -- and older beginners -- how to handle hammers, drills, and saws plus thirteen do-it-herself building projects (from the featured girls themselves) such as picture frames, nightstands, playhouses, and more.
