Stray - Stephanie Danler

From the author of the international bestseller Sweetbitter, a memoir of survival, starting over, and love in all its complicated guises. Even after achieving her dream of selling her debut novel, Stephanie Danler feels adrift in New York. Struggling in the throes of a doomed relationship and haunted by her tumultuous childhood, something nameless compels her to return home to Southern California. In a cottage in Laurel Canyon, as a new life begins to shape itself, she finally succumbs to memories of the past that have proved impossible to escape. A father who swung in and out of her life erratically, charming and mercurial and prone to addiction. A mother now disabled by years of alcoholism and an aneurysm, who cannot remember the abuse she inflicted. The looming, desolate mountains of Colorado, and a teenage freedom that nearly killed her. And above all, the painful love and forgiveness for those who failed her over and over again. ‘It's such a thrill to watch a writer open up her greediest thoughts, to slice open little pockets of her skin and root around underneath her flesh.’ New York Times Book Review ‘A compulsive, neck-breaking masterpiece.’ Lisa Taddeo ‘This is a story of triumph: the triumph of grit, talent, grace, and beauty over the dark pull of inner demons.’ Dani Shapiro

American Daughter - Elissa Wald, Stephanie Thornton Plymale

The sharp and surprising true story of a woman who finally sets out to understand her past, and the mother she had one day hoped to forget. Full of unexpected twists and unbelievable revelations, American Daughter is an immersive memoir that will have you on the edge of your seat to the very last page.For years, Stephanie Plymale, successful CEO and interior designer, kept her past a fiercely guarded secret. Only her husband knew that her childhood was fraught with every imaginable hardship: neglect, hunger, poverty, homelessness, truancy, foster homes, a harrowing lack of medical care, and worse. Stephanie, in turn, knew very little about the past of her mother, who was in and out of jails and psych wards for most of Stephanie''s formative years. All this changed when a series of shocking revelations forced Stephanie to revisit her tortured past and revise the meaning of every aspect of her compromised childhood.American Daughter is the extraordinary true story of a young girl growing up on the wrong side of the American Dream. Stephanie has slept in blankets on the floor of crowded apartments, lived in the back seat of a car with her siblings, and spent decades looking over her shoulder at a mother who might just as easily hug or harm her. American Daughter is at once a moving account of a troubled mother-daughter relationship and a meditation on resilience, transcendence, and ultimately, redemption.

Slúžka - Stephanie Landová

Dvadsaťosemročná Stephanie Landová snívala o štúdiu na univerzite. Jej sen sa však rýchlo rozplynie, keď v lete zistí, že je tehotná. Krátko nato ju opustí otec dieťaťa a ona zostáva na všetko sama. Aby prežila a zabezpečila svojej dcérke najzákladnejšie potreby, musí vziať aj najpodradnejšiu prácu. Slúžka je emocionálne drsná, majstrovsky napísaná výpoveď o autentických rokoch, ktoré autorka prežila ako upratovačka v službách pre americkú vyššiu strednú vrstvu. Upratovačka v tomto zmysle znamenalo byť „neviditeľná ako duch“, byť tichým svedkom úspechov, tragédií a najhlbších tajomstiev svojich klientov, no súčasne byť prehliadaným, niekedy ponižovaným, no hlavne ignorovaným človekom. Pritom sa však snaží vyhrabať zo svojej sociálnej mizérie, bojovať o svoju ľudskosť a dostať sa na štúdium na vysokej škole. Je to dielo o tom, ako človek dokáže vďaka svojej nezdolnej húževnatosti prekonať príkoria života na potravinových lístkoch, podporných sociálnych programoch, ale prekonať aj odcudzenosť svojich najbližších. Nad všetko ostatné je príbeh Stephanie Landovej obrazom odvrátenej strany tzv. amerického sna, kde byť chudobným znamená byť poznačeným stigmou. Kniha bola podkladom úspešného seriálu spoločnosti Netflix, ktorý si pozrelo 67 miliónov domácností na celom svete.

A Black feminist punk musician herself, Phillips addresses not only the unpredictable trajectory of Solange’s career but also how she and other Black women see themselves through the musician’s repertoire. First, she traces Solange’s progress through an inflexible industry, charting the artist’s development up to 2016, when the release of her third album, A Seat at the Table, redefined her career. With this record and, then, When I Get Home (2019), Phillips describes how Solange has embraced activism, anger, Black womanhood and intergenerational trauma to inform her remarkable art.Why Solange Matters not only cements the subject in the pantheon of world-changing twenty-first-century musicians, it introduces its writer as an important new voice.

Class - Stephanie Land

NATIONAL BESTSELLER A Good Morning America Book Club Pick A New York Times Most Anticipated Books of Fall From the New York Times bestselling author who inspired the hit Netflix series about a struggling mother barely making ends meet as a housecleaner, a “raw and inspiring” (People) memoir about college, motherhood, poverty, and life after Maid.When Stephanie Land set out to write her memoir Maid, she never could have imagined what was to come. Handpicked by President Barack Obama as one of the best books of 2019, he called it an “unflinching look at America’s class divide…and a reminder of the dignity of all work.” Later, it was adapted into the hit Netflix series Maid, which was viewed by sixty-seven million households and was Netflix’s fourth most-watched show in 2021, garnering three Primetime Emmy Award nominations. Stephanie’s escape out of poverty and abuse in search of a better life inspired millions. Maid was a story about a housecleaner, but it was also a story about a woman with a dream. In Class, Land takes us with her as she finishes college and pursues her writing career. Facing barriers at every turn including a byzantine loan system, food insecurity, the judgments of professors and fellow students who didn’t understand the demands of attending college while under the poverty line—Land finds a way to survive once again, finally graduating in her mid-thirties. Class paints an intimate and heartbreaking portrait of motherhood as it converges and often conflicts with personal desire and professional ambition. Who has the right to create art? Who has the right to go to college? And what kind of work is valued in our culture?

Uzdravení Rose Gold Wattsové - Stephanie Wrobelová - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Vztahy mezi matkami a dcerami bývají složité, ale tohle je tedy pořádné psycho! Patty Wattsová byla pro mnohé hrdinkou, ba téměř světicí – obětavou svobodnou matkou pečující o těžce nemocnou dceru, kterou od dětství sužovaly nejrůznější zdravotní problémy. Jednoho dne se však ukáže, že nebohá Rose Gold je úplně zdravá a všechno to zvracení, padání vlasů, výživové sondy a operace zavinila její matka, která dívce dávala celé roky do jídla jed a o jejím stavu všem kolem bohapustě lhala. Po mediálním lynči a jednoznačném soudním procesu skončí „travička Patty“ na pět let ve vězení, kam ji dostalo dceřino emotivní svědectví. Jaké je proto překvapení obyvatel městečka Deadwick, když se stejná žena po propuštění nastěhuje k již dospělé Rose Gold, která jí klidně svěří péči o novorozeného syna. Dokázala snad týraná dívka své matce odpustit a dát jí druhou šanci? A je nyní z Patty starostlivá máma a milující babička? Nebo spolu obě ženy hrají nějakou ďábelskou partii? Ale která z nich je v tom případě na tahu? Román pojednávající o případu tzv. Münchhausenova syndromu v zastoupení byl inspirován skutečným příběhem Gypsy Rose Blanchardové a její matky Dee Dee. „Z každého dějového zvratu čiší čiré zlo, obě hlavní postavy s fascinující urputností ovládají stránku za stránkou a vyvrcholení je hodno nejlepších románů Patricie Highsmithové.“ – Daily Mail. „Naprosto senzační – dvě komplexní postavy pohánějí příběh jako nukleární reakce a nenechají na sebe zapomenout. Stephanii Wrobelovou se vyplatí sledovat.“ – Lee Child, spisovatel.

Raffael - Malíř v Římě - Storey Stephanie

Fresky na stropě Sixtinské kaple jsou jedním z nejvěhlasnějších mistrovských děl italské renesance. Stephanie Storey ve své knize líčí jejich vznik jako ještě nikdo předtím: očima Michelangelova nejzuřivějšího soka, mladého, pohledného Rafaela Santi z Urbina, vynikajícho malíře posedlého dokonalostí. Rafael osiřel v jedenácti letech a je pevně odhodlán dodržet slib, který dal svému otci na smrtelném loži: stát se největším malířem v dějinách. Ale aby mohl být nejlepší, musí porazit nejlepšího, legendárního sochaře, tvůrce Davida, Michelangela Buonarrotiho. Papež Julius II. povolá oba umělce do Říma a postaví je proti sobě: Michelangelo maluje strop v Sixtinské kapli, zatímco Rafael má na starosti výzdobu papežových soukromých komnat. Rafael usiluje o dokonalost, ale zápasí přitom s vnitřními démony: zoufalou ctižádostí, ochromujícícm strachem z nedokonalosti a nesmírnou osamělostí. Během práce kuje pikle s kardinály, prolézá trosky antického Říma a zamiluje se do pekařovy dcery, která se stala nevěstkou a jako taková jeho múzou.Rafael, malíř v Římě se svým krásným jazykem, působivým prostředím, milými postavami a poutavou zápletkou barvitě líčí život dvou renesančních mistrů soupeřících uprostřed nebezpečných vatikánských síní.

Zahradničení bez rytí - Dowding Charles a Hafferty Stephanie

Zahradničit bez rytí - je to vůbec možné? A proč vlastně? Autoři této knihy (a mnozí jiní) svou zahradu tímto způsobem obdělávají již celá desetiletí. Ušetří si tak spoustu času i práce a zároveň tím podporují přirozené a udržitelné fungování půdy a celého ekosystému. Spolupráce s přírodou se jim pak vrací především v podobě zdravější a úrodnější půdy, která lépe hospodaří s vodou a v níž se rostlinám dobře daří. O své bohaté zkušenosti se Charles a Stephanie dělí v této ucelené publikaci, v níž se láska k zahradničení a přírodě snoubí s praktičností a jednoduchost s hojností. Metoda bez rytí je přímočará. Nejprve odstraníme plevel nanesením mulče - pokrývky, pod níž mohou užitečné půdní organismy dál nerušeně fungovat. Když totiž půdu narušíme rytím, značnou část těchto organismů poškodíme či zcela zničíme. Půvab zahradničení bez rytí spočívá také v tom, že půda se nepotřebuje tak jako po narušení uzdravovat za pomoci plevelů, takže jejich výskyt přirozeně klesá. Mulčování vrstvou kompostu dodá půdě zároveň výživu i ochranu, záhony získají krásnou tmavou pokrývku a vaší zahradnické invenci nebude stát nic v cestě. Kniha obsahuje základní informace od založení zahrady až po úspěšnou sklizeň a skladování úrody a současně nabízí spoustu tipů a receptů na zpracování a využití zeleniny, ovoce a bylin jak přímo na zahradě, tak v kuchyni a v celé domácnosti. Takže kromě vytváření záhonů, předpěstovávání, sázení a efektivního plánování se od autorů můžeme naučit vyrábět domácí kosmetiku či přípravky proti škůdcům a také připravit leccos dobrého na zub.

Služka - Tvrdá práce, nízký plat a matčina vůle přežít - Stephanie Landová

Služka je emocionálně drsná, mistrně napsaná výpověď o autentických letech, které autorka přežila jako uklízečka ve službách pro americkou vyšší střední vrstvu. Úklid v tomto smyslu znamenalo být „neviditelná jako duch“, být tichým svědkem úspěchů, tragédií a nejhlubších tajemství svých klientů, ale současně být přehlíženým, někdy ponižovaným, ale hlavně ignorovaným člověkem. Přitom se však snaží vyhrabat ze své sociální mizérie, bojovat o své lidství a dostat se ke studiu na vysoké škole. Je to dílo o tom, jak člověk dokáže díky své nezdolné houževnatosti překonat příkoří života na potravinových lístcích, podpůrných sociálních programech, ale překonat i odcizenost svých nejbližších. Nad vše ostatní je příběh Stephanie Landové obrazem odvrácené strany tzv.. amerického snu, kde být chudým znamená být poznačeným stigmatem.*****Kniha byla podkladem úspěšného seriálu společnosti Netflix, který si prohlédlo 67 milionů domácností na celém světě.

In the hours that followed, Western leaders weaponized economic tools in a world-changing financial experiment.The goal was to sap the strength of Putin’s war machine by damaging its economy, without risking a global recession in the process. In Punishing Putin, veteran journalist Stephanie Baker uncovers how this furious financial war has unfolded, from seizing superyachts to manipulating the global price of oil to blocking the sale of military technology.

Oba žijí poblíž Houstonu a okolní realita se jim zprvu zdá docela obyčejná - dokud ji nezačnou narušovat podivné příhody: občasné záblesky energie, výpadky vnímání nebo sny tak živé, že jako by utvářely vlastní pravidla.

What My Bones Know - Foo Stephanie

''A striking memoir...A must-read for anyone healing from complex trauma'' Jeanette McCurdy, bestselling author of I''m Glad My Mom DiedEvery cell in my body is filled with the code of generations of trauma, of death, of birth, of migration, of history that I cannot understand. . . . I want to have words for what my bones know. By the age of thirty, Stephanie Foo was successful on paper: she had her dream job as an award-winning radio producer at This American Life and a loving boyfriend. But behind her office door, she was having panic attacks and sobbing at her desk every morning. After years of questioning what was wrong with herself, she was diagnosed with complex PTSD - a condition that occurs when trauma happens continuously, over the course of years. Both of Foo''s parents abandoned her when she was a teenager, after years of physical and verbal abuse and neglect. She thought she''d moved on, but her new diagnosis illuminated the way her past continued to threaten her health, relationships, and career. She found limited resources to help her, so Foo set out to heal herself, and to map her experiences onto the scarce literature about C-PTSD. In this deeply personal and thoroughly researched account, Foo interviews scientists and psychologists and tries a variety of innovative therapies. She returns to her hometown in California to investigate the effects of immigrant trauma on the community, and she uncovers family secrets in the country of her birth, Malaysia, to learn how trauma can be inherited through generations. Ultimately, she discovers that you don''t move on from trauma - but you can learn to move with it. Powerful, enlightening and hopeful, What My Bones Know is a brave narrative that reckons with the hold of the past over the present, the mind over the body - and examines one woman''s ability to reclaim agency from her trauma.

Super Gay Poems - Burt Stephanie

A major poet and literary critic leads an aesthetic adventure through poems about queer experience, by writers who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, trans, nonbinary, gender fluid, and more.A groundbreaking anthology edited by acclaimed poet, critic, and scholar Stephanie Burt, Super Gay Poems brings together fifty-one works encompassing the wide range of queer and trans verse after the Stonewall uprising of 1969. Since that galvanizing moment, poetry has served as both a vehicle for queer liberation and a witness to its sometimes fragile, sometimes ebullient flourishing, across the world.The poems in this anthology represent the great variety of queer and trans life itself. They include near-sonnets, iambic couplets, and rhymed quatrains; skinny dimeters and shaped poems; chatty free verse and intentionally inaccurate translations; the demotic and the rococo. Arranged in chronological order, the selections trace queer culture’s recent evolutions. Frank O’Hara, Audre Lorde, Judy Grahn, James Merrill, Thom Gunn, Jackie Kay, Adrienne Rich, Chen Chen, essa ranapiri, and The Cyborg Jillian Weise―poets widely known and poets who deserve to be―share their alienation, their euphoria, and their encounters with a protean community as it discovers new solidarities and new selves.Each piece is paired with a concise, eye-opening essay in Burt’s trademark style, with verve and an inimitable literary ear. A treasury of aesthetic experience and insight, Super Gay Poems points protestors, political organizers, poetry lovers, and LGBTQIA+ readers toward many beautiful tomorrows.
