A riveting collection of short stories by the French feminist Marie-Louise Gagneur.Much acclaimed amongst her contemporaries and yet all but forgotten today, Marie-Louise Gagneur was a defining voice in French feminism. These stories, translated into English for the first time, critique the restrictions of late nineteenth-century society and explore the ways in which both men and women are hurt by rigid attitudes towards marriage.In An Atonement, the Count de Montbarrey awakes one morning to find his wife dead, leaving him free to marry the woman he really loves. Could the Count have accidentally killed his wife? And how can he atone for his crime? Three Rival Sisters tells the story of the rivalry between Henriette, Renée and Gabrielle as they compete for the affections of one man. But marriage does not necessarily guarantee happiness, as the sisters are about to find out.Steeped in wit, empathy and biting social criticism, and with echoes of Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Kate Chopin, the stories show Gagneur to be worthy of renewed attention.

Coming off the heels of the most-watched RHOSLC episode of all time, Heather gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at the receipts, proof, timeline, and screenshots of that fateful night in Bermuda. From illicit high school trips to Tijuana and awkward dates set up by her overzealous costars, Good Time Girl is a charming and intimate meditation on community, love, independence, womanhood, and—most importantly—second chances.

IN THE RHODODENDRONS is vital consolation, amidst the amidst. It s a triumph, an instant classic. Christle has become one of our art s most urgent living practitioners Kaveh Akbar, author of Martyr!When Heather Christle realises that she, her mother, and Virginia Woolf share a traumatic history, she begins to rewrite and intertwine each of their stories, in search of a more hopeful narrative and a future she can live with.When Heather Christle realises that she, her mother, and Virginia Woolf share a traumatic history, she begins to rewrite and intertwine each of their stories, in search of a more hopeful narrative and a future she can live with.On a recent visit to London s Kew Gardens, Christle s mother revealed details of a painful story from her past that took place there, under circumstances that strangely paralleled Heather s own sexual assault during a visit to London as a teenager.Her private, British mother s revelation - a rare burst of vulnerability in their strained relationship - propels Christle down a deep and destabilising rabbit hole of investigation, as she both reads and wanders the streets of her mother s past, peeling back the layers of family mythologies, England s sanctioned historical narratives, and her own buried memories. Over the course of several trips to London, with and without her mother, she visits her family s birthday hill in Kew Gardens, the now-public homes of the Bloomsbury set, the archives of the British Library, and the backyard garden where Woolf wrote her final sentence. All the while, she finds that Woolf and her writings not only constantly seem to connect and overlap with her mother s story, but also that the author becomes a kind of vital intermediary: a sometimes confidante, sometimes mentor, sometimes distancing lens through which Christle can safely observe her mother and their experiences.Wide-ranging and prismatic, the fruit of an insatiably curious, delightfully brilliant mind, In the Rhododendrons is part memoir, part biography of Virginia Woolf, part reckoning with the things we cannot change and the ways we can completely transform, if we dare. This utterly original book will stir readers into new ways of seeing their own lives.

The instant New York Times bestselling author of the “raw and revealing” (Interview magazine) Bad Mormon and breakout star of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City returns with a hilarious and candid national bestseller about life and love as a former Mormon, mother, and reality TV star.In the “confident debut” (The Daily Beast) Bad Mormon, Heather Gay pulled back the veil on her orthodox adolescence and marriage in the Mormon Church, and the painful process of leaving it all behind. Becoming a successful business owner and reality TV star gave the single mom of three a second lease on life. After years of living in an insular bubble, Heather emerged bright-eyed, eager to take on the world…no matter how ill-equipped her upbringing might have left her. Now, in this provocative and laugh-out-loud funny follow-up, the mother of three proves that she isn’t just a Bad Mormon—she’s also a Good Time Girl. With her “thoughtful, smart, and funny” (Kirkus Reviews) writing, Heather recounts the humorous trysts, mishaps, and serendipitous success she’s found as a life-long reveler in all things indulgent. From illicit high school trips to Tijuana and awkward dates set up by her overzealous costars, Good Time Girl is a charming and intimate meditation on community, love, independence, womanhood, and—most importantly—second chances.

Tender, vivid and achingly sad GUARDIAN, BOOK OF THE YEARTWO SISTERS publishes on the 30th anniversary of Blake Morrison⠙s ground-breaking book And When Did You Last See Your Father? which forged the way for a new genre of confessional memoir.⠘She⠙s gone, that⠙s all, and though there⠙s no retrieving her I⠙d like to make sense of who she was and what she became. It wasn⠙t just that she changed over time. She could change from day to day. Drink made it worse but the origins went deeper. You never knew which you⠙d get, the kind and loving Gill or her doppelgänger. Two sisters.⠙Blake Morrison has lost a sister and a half-sister in recent years. Both are the subjects of this remarkable and heart-breaking memoir, along with a forensic examination of sibling relationships in history and literature.Blake⠙s sister Gill struggled with alcoholism for a large part of her life, and her shocking death is the starting point for Two Sisters. Blake returns to their childhood to search for the origins of her later difficulties, and in doing so unearths the story behind his half-sister, Josie.As he unravels these narratives, Blake deals movingly in the guilt and shame that will be familiar to every person who has struggled with addiction in their family. He is unflinching in doing so, and the result is a book which provides testament to that common struggle, as well as acknowledging the complex, hidden forces on which all our lives are based.Two Sisters is the extraordinary new memoir from the chronicler of human frailty, Blake Morrison.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERNew York Times bestselling author Alan Paul s in-depth narrative look at the Allman Brothers most successful album, and a portrait of an era in rock and roll and American history.The Allman Brothers Band’s Brothers and Sisters was not only the band’s bestselling album, at over seven million copies sold, but it was also a powerfully influential release, both musically and culturally, one whose influence continues to be profoundly felt.Celebrating the album’s fiftieth anniversary, Brothers and Sisters the book delves into the making of the album, while also presenting a broader cultural history of the era, based on first-person interviews, historical documents, and in-depth research.Brothers and Sisters traces the making of the template-shaping record alongside the stories of how the Allman Brothers came to the rescue of a flailing Jimmy Carter presidential campaign and helped get the former governor of Georgia elected president; how Gregg Allman’s marriage to Cher was an early harbinger of an emerging celebrity media culture; and how the band’s success led to internal fissures. The book also examines the Allman Brothers relationship with the Grateful Dead—including the most in-depth reporting ever on the Summer Jam at Watkins Glen, the largest rock festival ever—and describes how they inspired bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd, helping create the southern rock genre.With exclusive access to hundreds of hours of never-before-heard interviews with every major player, including Dickey Betts and Gregg Allman, conducted by Allman Brothers Band archivist, photographer, and “Tour Mystic” Kirk West, Brothers and Sisters is an honest assessment of the band’s career, history, and highs and lows.

Od edenu po armagedon. Před 6000 lety první světová civilizace, Sumerové, zaznamenávala příběhy o podivných nebeských bozích, kteří podle sumerské víry sestoupili z nebe, aby stvořili lidstvo. Tito bohové, známí jako Anunnakové, jsou historiky hlavního proudu velmi často opomíjení. Samotní Sumerové jsou tak záhadní, že vědci jejich původ charakterizovali slovy sumerský problém . Z našich učebnic dějepisu se toho o starých Sumerech moc nedozvíme, a proto se objevují četné alternativní teorie. Mnoho lidí se tak zamýšlí nad tím, jaký je skutečný příběh Sumerů a jejich nadpozemských bohů, Anunnaků. Dr. Lynnová mapuje při své práci vývoj těchto mezopotamských bohů na starověkém Blízkém Východě, analyzuje sumerské náboženství, mýty, umění a symbolismus a zabývá se otázkami: • Kdo jsou Anunnakové? • Jak přesné jsou současné překlady sumerských textů a jak můžeme vědět jistě, komu věřit? • Existuje spojení mezi Anunnaky a ostatními bohy dávnověku? • Kde jsou Anunnakové teď? Bude jejich případný návrat znamenat konec světa? Dr. Heather Lynnová je historička, rebelující archeoložka a zastánkyně klasického vzdělání. Ve dne profesorka humanitních věd, v noci zapálená hledačka pravdy. Heather jde za svým životním posláním objevovat a sdílet ztracenou moudrost dávnověku a zpochybňovat obecně přijímané pojetí dějin v našich učebnicích dějepisu.

Lidé se nerodí jako nepopsaný list papíru, na který společnost píše podle své libovůle. Příroda nám dala do vínku povahu, s níž musíme umět pracovat. Zároveň jsou lidé úžasně flexibilní ve schopnosti adaptovat se na neznámé a využívat nově nalezené příležitosti. Ovšem tato schopnost má své limity. Průvodce lovce-sběrače po 21. století pojednává o výzvách hyper-novosti moderní společnosti a o tom, jak to, co v minulosti vedlo k ohromnému pokroku lidstva, může současného člověka vést k životu, který je zesláblý, zmatený a nezdravý. Heather Heyingová a Bret Weinstein jsou evoluční biologové, kteří nám připomínají, že ignorovat lidskou povahu se nevyplácí, pokud je naším cílem, aby společnost udržitelně prospívala do budoucna. V knize rozkrývají delikátní snoubení přírody a kultury a zabývají se praktickými důsledky evolučních východisek na celou řadu oblastí - výchova, dospívání, škola, vztahy a mnoho dalších. Průvodce lovce-sběrače po 21. století je příběh člověka převyprávěný krásným jazykem a s dojemnými metaforami. Heyingová a Weinstein jsou učenci v tom nejlepším slova smyslu: jsou příkladem intelektuální pokory, sofistikovaného myšlení a lásky k učení, jež by to nejlepší humanitní vzdělání mělo pěstovat. Každý, kdo vychovává nebo vzdělává děti nebo kdo chce změnit společenské systémy, by si měl nejprve přečíst tuto knihu. -Jonathan Haidt, autor knih Morálka lidské mysli a Hypotéza štěstí Bret a Heather jsou vysoce uznávanými evolučními biology, velmi prozíravými mysliteli a popularizátory, a jak dokládá nechvalná událost, jíž je vystavila škola, kde učili, je pro ně důležitější vědecká pravda než politická korektnost. -Robert Sapolsky, autor knihy Chování: Biologie člověka v dobrém i ve zlém
