Females
Author: Andrea Long Chu
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1788737393
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
One of today’s most original thinkers on gender offers a provocative take on the current feminist movement, exploring “desire as the force shaping our identifies, the paradoxes of liberation politics, and her own gender transition” (Bookforum). “[Females] is always smart, sometimes sincere, and unpredictable about when it will pinch your arm or clutch its nails around your heart.” —Vice Everyone is female, and everyone hates it. Females is Andrea Long Chu’s genre-defying investigation into sex and lies, desperate artists and reckless politics, the smothering embrace of gender and the punishing force of desire. Drawing inspiration from a forgotten play by Valerie Solanas—the woman who wrote the SCUM Manifesto and shot Andy Warhol—Chu aims her searing wit and surgical intuition at targets ranging from performance art to psychoanalysis, incels to porn. She even has a few barbs reserved for feminists like herself. Each step of the way, she defends the indefensible claim that femaleness is less a biological state and more a fatal existential condition that afflicts the entire human race—men, women, and everyone else. Or maybe she’s just projecting. A thrilling new voice who has been credited with launching the “second wave” of trans studies, Chu shows readers how to write for your life, baring her innermost self with a morbid sense of humor and a mordant kind of hope.

The Egg and I
Author: Betty MacDonald
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0060914289
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
When Betty MacDonald married a marine and moved to a small chicken farm on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, she was largely unprepared for the rigors of life in the wild. With no running water, no electricity, a house in need of constant repair, and days that ran from four in the morning to nine at night, the MacDonalds had barely a moment to put their feet up and relax. And then came the children. Yet through every trial and pitfall—through chaos and catastrophe—this indomitable family somehow, mercifully, never lost its sense of humor. A beloved literary treasure for more than half a century, Betty MacDonald's The Egg and I is a heartwarming and uproarious account of adventure and survival on an American frontier.

Book Description
Welcome to "Color Me Canine (Hound Group)"! If you like coloring realistic drawings with just a bit of extra, I promise you will have fun with this book. If you are looking for your next canine buddy or you just like oohing and aahing over all the cool dogs, this book is for you as well. Some of what you will find inside: - All the coloring pages are done by me, a Maxwell award-winning artist. - There's honest info about Hounds in general. Did you know that usually, your hound sees you as a good friend, rather than his master? You are a lovely part of their day, but they are not going to do what you say just because you say it. Does that sound like the right type of dog for you? - Two-page breed descriptions of each breed including a crowdsourced "In Three Words". The plan is to have seven coloring books, one for each American Kennel Club Group. Done so far (as of 2021) are Toy Dogs and Herding Breeds. This is Volume 3. Still have a way to go! I better get busy.

A Scene in Between (Revised Edition)
Author: Sam Knee
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781800660168
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
'A glorious photographic compendium of styles and street cultures from a bygone era'. -- The Guardian 'An artist's image and music is inextricably tethered and A Scene In Between draws these threads together beautifully'. -- Vice Magazine 'A visual manifestation of Knee's personal obsession and acute knowledge of the scene - in particular, the underground style - whilst mirroring the general mood of the era'. -- Dazed Magazine A revised edition of this cult classic photographic exploration of 1980s music and fashion. A Scene In Between sets out to excavate the sartorial treasures of the UK's 1980s guitar scenes. Using original archive photography from scenesters, band members and amateur photographers of the time, Sam Knee takes you on a fashion trip through the visual racket of pivotal indie bands including Primal Scream, Spacemen 3, The Smiths, My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Tallulah Gosh, the Vaselines and countless others. Charity shop chic, anoraks, bowlcuts, leather trousers and stripy tees are all de-riguer in this evocative photographic historical capsule. Seven years on from the release of the first edition, Sam Knee has expanded his photographic contact base, and built a loyal Instagram following of over 60,000 (including many big names in fashion and music). This revised edition features a new cover and intro, interviews with Johnny Marr, Deb Googe and Lawrence from Felt, alongside hundreds of never-seen-before photographs that will delight both fans of Sam's work and new music and fashion aficionados.
