Book Description
« Résonner » est censé être un rêve - c'est le moment où votre âme sœur est choisie. Et tout le monde sur la planète de glace a trouvé la sienne... sauf moi. Est-ce que je veux un compagnon ? Oui, bien sûr. Plus que tout. J'ai toujours voulu être aimée. Mais l'âme sœur désignée pour moi ? C’est la personne que j’aime le moins sur cette foutue planète de glace. Haeden est l'extraterrestre le plus grincheux, le plus râleur, le plus désagréable, le plus autoritaire... alors pourquoi mon corps réagit-il lorsqu'il est près de moi ? Pourquoi fait-il tant d'efforts pour me prouver qu'il n'est pas aussi horrible que je le pense ? Je le déteste... n'est-ce pas ?

Everyday Life in the Modern World
Author: Henri Lefebvre
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000964949
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Philosopher, sociologist and urban theorist, Henri Lefebvre (1901–1991) was one of the great social theorists of the twentieth century and pioneered the theorization of everyday life and space. In this fascinating book, which became a manifesto for urban activism upon its first publication in the 1960s, Lefebvre poses a major question: what gives a society undergoing constant change the illusion of stability? For Lefebvre, the answer is that our everyday lives are the product of decisions from which we are alienated, resulting in what he memorably describes as 'terror-enforced passivity'. Modern capitalism produces and controls the space around us: the buildings we work in, the roads we drive on and even the parks surrounding us are artificial and controlled, isolating the individual in a life of repetition. Lefebvre rejects such a world of control and monotony, urging instead a spontaneous, utopian creativity, in which human beings can engage in meaningful work and leisure. Profound and prophetic for its insights into the impact of capitalism and urbanization, Everyday Life in the Modern World remains a classic work by a towering thinker and essential reading today. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Foreword by Claire Revol and Rob Shields.

Sister Gin
Author: June Arnold
Publisher: Feminist Press at CUNY
ISBN: 9781558610101
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
   Aging, lesbian consciousness, the difficulty of escaping from alcoholism-these are the themes of June Arnold's extraordinary novel, first published by Daughters in 1975. The novel stands squarely in the southern literary tradition, depicting with memorable hilarity a groupd of elderly female vigilantes who take local rape deference into their own hands. Critics and fellow writers have rightly lauded it as a classic of experimental fiction. It is also a unique exploration of menopause as rebirth. " Sister Gin is a tour de force about lesbianism and alcoholism, fat and feminism, rape and race, falling in love with your lover's mother's girlfriend, and it has the very best description of hot flashes in literature."- Jane Marcus

A Gravity's Rainbow Companion
Author: Steven C. Weisenburger
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820337641
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
Adding some 20 percent to the original content, this is a completely updated edition of Steven Weisenburger's indispensable guide to Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow. Weisenburger takes the reader page by page, often line by line, through the welter of historical references, scientific data, cultural fragments, anthropological research, jokes, and puns around which Pynchon wove his story. Weisenburger fully annotates Pynchon's use of languages ranging from Russian and Hebrew to such subdialects of English as 1940s street talk, drug lingo, and military slang as well as the more obscure terminology of black magic, Rosicrucianism, and Pavlovian psychology. The Companion also reveals the underlying organization of Gravity's Rainbow--how the book's myriad references form patterns of meaning and structure that have eluded both admirers and critics of the novel. The Companion is keyed to the pages of the principal American editions of Gravity's Rainbow: Viking/Penguin (1973), Bantam (1974), and the special, repaginated Penguin paperback (2000) honoring the novel as one of twenty "Great Books of the Twentieth Century."
