Foxfire
Author: Joyce Carol Oates
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 059318274X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
New York Times bestselling author Joyce Carol Oates’s strongest and most unsparing novel yet—an always engrossing, often shocking evocation of female rage, gallantry, and grit. The time is the 1950s. The place is a blue-collar town in upstate New York, where five high school girls join a gang dedicated to pride, power, and vengeance on a world that seems made to denigrate and destroy them. Here is the secret history of a sisterhood of blood, a haven from a world of male oppressors, marked by a liberating fury that burns too hot to last. Above all, it is the story of Legs Sadovsky, with her lean, on-the-edge, icy beauty, whose nerve, muscle, hate, and hurt make her the spark of Foxfire: its guiding spirit, its burning core. At once brutal and lyrical, this is a careening joyride of a novel—charged with outlaw energy and lit by intense emotion. Amid scenes of violence and vengeance lies this novel’s greatest power: the exquisite, astonishing rendering of the bonds that link the Foxfire girls together. Foxfire reaffirms Joyce Carol Oates’s place at the very summit of American writing.

My 38 Confessions
Author: Dea Divi

ISBN:
Category : Poetry

Pages : 253
Book Description
This poetry collection focuses on themes, metaphors, allusions, parallelism, ideologies, identities, realities, cultural statuses, traditions, histories, and perceptions in societies versus women and vice versa in a pool of external to internal makings. What makes this collection ideal and pivotal are the moralities, values, and a submarine effect which mirrors the doors to doorways with voices not heard and spoken, which masters the details of lullabies broken and salvaged by the chains of attentions viewed in a naked tale-tale sign. My 38 Confessions goes into deep depth in confessions of women versus society and vice versa, but the algorithm shows a Casablanca effect with pure thematic presence.

A Foreign and Wicked Institution?
Author: Rene Kollar
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1630876607
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Many in Victorian England harbored deep suspicion of convent life. In addition to looking at anti-Catholicism and the fear of both Anglican and Catholic sisterhoods that were established during the nineteenth century, this work explores the prejudice that existed against women in Victorian England who joined sisterhoods and worked in orphanages and in education and were comitted to social work among the urban poor. Women, according to some of these critics, should remain passive in matters of religion. Nuns, however, did play an important role in many areas of life in nineteenth-century England and faced hostility from many who felt threatened and challenged by members of female religious orders. The accomplishments of the nineteenth-century nuns and the opposition they overcame should serve as both an example and encouragement to all men and women committed to the Gospel.
