Abstract

Quand j'avais sept ans, on m'appelait la Petite Bijou. Il a souri. Il trouvait certainement cela charmant et tendre pour une petite fille. Lui aussi, j'en étais sûre, sa maman lui avait donné un surnom qu'elle lui murmurait à l'oreille, le soir, avant de l'embrasser. Patoche. Pinky. Poulou. Ce n'est pas ce que vous croyez, lui ai-je dit. Moi, c'était mon nom d'artiste.

Abstract

A mosaic of memories, the poems of This Country of Mothers recollect Julianna Baggott's experiences as both mother and daughter. With wit, compassion, aggression, and anxiety, Baggott examines her maternal history. She recalls moments of creation and destruction in her life, times of elation and of desperation that mold her as both a woman and a poet. This affecting study of motherhood is framed in issues of Catholicism and of poetry itself, challenging and espousing the roles of both. Throughout her poems, Baggott's personal experiences embrace universal themes to birth po

Abstract

Mothers and Daughters and the Origins of Female Subjectivity challenges the theory of the Oedipus complex, which permeates psychoanalytic theory, psychology, semiotics and cultural studies. The book focuses on the re-examination of women's development through the theories of primitive mental states.Women's subjectivity has been profoundly limited by continuing anxieties about the mother's body. Jane Van Buren describes how women are gradually escaping the curse of inferiority and finding a voice, enabling the mother to provide their daughters with a legacy of rightful agenc

Abstract

I divoratori sono i giovani geni destinati a consumare, generazione dopo generazione, chi è loro più vicino e più li ama. Con questo libro, il suo riconosciuto capolavoro, pubblicato prima in inglese e poi riscritto in italiano nel 1911, Annie Vivanti, singolare figura di scrittrice e protagonista della vita pubblica letteraria, fortemente di genere (come oggi si direbbe), circondata dalla fama e seguita dai pettegolezzi, riconquistò, dopo un ventennio, il mercato librario italiano, per non lasciarlo più fino alla morte. È una saga al femminile di impronta nettamente autobiografica: si succedono figure di figlie, geniali, a loro volta madri, che divorano spiritualmente, sacrificando a sé chi diede loro la vita: Nancy, la poetessa, poi la figlia Anne-Marie, enfant prodige del violino, e infine il figlio di questa nel quale anche la musicista si annulla per produrre nuovo genio. E ciò che colpisce di questa scrittrice, è la suggestiva capacità di trascinare il lettore in ambienti che nascondono il loro sapiente esotismo, la loro dosata miscela di dramma e commedia avventurosa lievemente inebriante, nel vissuto dell'autobiografia. Finzioni e cose viste realmente, difficilmente distinguibili, confuse dal brillante profilo di una donna abilissima a fare di se stessa una narratrice e insieme anche un personaggio: il personaggio. Nei Divoratori palpita tutto l'ampio respiro di un mondo sospeso tra realismo e fantasia, che trascorre dai sogni dell'infanzia alle disillusioni ironiche di amori imperfetti, dalle segrete dolcezze dei sentimenti adolescenti alle miserie dei quartieri popolari, da Montecarlo a New York alla campagna inglese. Una storia in cui si riversano le tante storie di personaggi dall'anima teatrale, attori e comparse popolanti l'ampia commedia umana che per questa artista, che Carducci amò, figlia di un esule mazziniano e sposa di un patriota irlandese, era la vita.

Abstract

Honor's Shadow is a story of betrayal and revenge. Dr Honor Sinclair, a psychiatrist and therapist, is forced to confront a long buried betrayal, when several small events converge to awaken disturbing memories. An anniversary of loss, a newspaper article about someone from her past, a new therapy client distraught by her husband's infidelity. How can Honor control her own pressing emotions and desires, as she attempts to contain the vengeful impulses of Tisi, her strange new client? 'Voula Grand is a writer to watch. Honor's Shadow, nourished by its author's professional work as a psychologist, grows to become a quite original and haunting work of fiction. It is rare for a first book to manage the difficult trick of being both wise and gripping so successfully.'- John Mitchinson, co-author of The QI Book of General Ignorance'Voula's experience as a psychologist is evident in the way she expertly gets under the skin of the characters she portrays. One is hooked from the first page, the twists and turns of the plot keep you guessing right up to the end.'- Leonie Mellinger, communication skills coach'Voula Grand's work combines a raw emotional honesty with a psychologist's insight into the human psyche. This novel is at once a real page-turner and a highly original portrait of the nature of betrayal. A must-read.'- Jacqui Lofthouse, author of Bluethroat Morning'A tale woven with twists and turns and compelling characters. You won't be able to put it down.'- Vanessa Woolley, Presenter, Marlow FM Book Club'This compelling psychological drama had me gripped from the first page. The past erupts with life-changing consequences for the characters in a powerful tale of retribution and justice. I couldn't put it down.'- Sally Potter, relationship therapist.

Abstract

How an ordinary family fell into the dark world of white supremacy, and how love ultimately triumphed over hate. As a troubled teen, Lauren Manning sought refuge online in the angry world of black metal music. When she met a recruiter who offered her the acceptance she craved, the doctrine of white supremacy supplanted the values of her middle-class upbringing, and Lauren traded suburbia for a life of violence and criminality on the streets of Toronto.
