Book Description
I was always devoted to her, even when she belonged to someone else. Unrequited love is a special kind of torture, but I've let it fuel my success all these years, writing chart topping love songs about the one woman I could never have-because she was my best friend's wife. But then tragedy strikes, leaving both of us reeling as we stumble our way through grief. And just like always, I'm there for her, because that's what you do for the love of your life, even if she only sees you as a friend. When she discovers the secret I've carried for over a decade, she does the last thing I ever expected-she kisses me. And that one kiss changes everything. Now, every dream I've ever fantasized about is becoming reality, but when new secrets are revealed, I wonder if I'll ever get the happy ending I've always craved. Devoted Intent is a steamy second chance at love romance and the third book in the Rapturous Intent Rockstar Series. It is best if it's read after book two, but it can be read as a standalone. Content Warning: This book contains grieving following the death of a spouse and pregnancy loss.

Book Description
With this important new book, Susan Suleiman lays the foundation for a postmodern feminist poetics and theory of the avant-garde. She shows how the figure of Woman, as fantasy, myth, or metaphor, has functioned in the work of male avant-garde writers and artists of this century. Focusing also on women's avant-garde artistic practices, Suleiman demonstrates how to read difficult modern works in a way that reveals their political as well as their aesthetic impact. Suleiman directly addresses the subversive intent of avant-garde movements from Surrealism to postmodernism. Through her detailed readings of provocatively transgressive works by André Breton, Georges Bataille, Roland Barthes, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, and others, Suleiman demonstrates the central role of the female body in the male erotic imagination and illuminates the extent to which masculinist assumptions have influenced modern art and theory. By examining the work of contemporary women avantgarde artists and theorists--including Hélène Cixous, Marguerite Duras, Monique Wittig, Luce Irigaray, Angela Carter, Jeanette Winterson, Leonora Carrington, Barbara Kruger, Jenny Holzer, and Cindy Sherman--Suleiman shows the political power of feminist critiques of patriarchal ideology, and especially emphasizes the power of feminist humor and parody. Central to Suleiman's revisionary theory of the avant-garde is the figure of the playful, laughing mother. True to the radically irreverent spirit of the historical avant-gardes and their postmodernist successors, Suleiman's laughing mother embodies the need for a link between symbolic innovation and political and social change.
