Book Description
#1 New York Times Bestseller “Funny and smart as hell” (Bill Gates), Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half showcases her unique voice, leaping wit, and her ability to capture complex emotions with deceptively simple illustrations. FROM THE PUBLISHER: Every time Allie Brosh posts something new on her hugely popular blog Hyperbole and a Half the internet rejoices. This full-color, beautifully illustrated edition features more than fifty percent new content, with ten never-before-seen essays and one wholly revised and expanded piece as well as classics from the website like, “The God of Cake,” “Dogs Don’t Understand Basic Concepts Like Moving,” and her astonishing, “Adventures in Depression,” and “Depression Part Two,” which have been hailed as some of the most insightful meditations on the disease ever written. Brosh’s debut marks the launch of a major new American humorist who will surely make even the biggest scrooge or snob laugh. We dare you not to. FROM THE AUTHOR: This is a book I wrote. Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
[Contains Episodes 000 - 014] Almost six years after a brutal year-long genocide campaign known as 'The Dehue Extermination Project,' Damian Warkowski is woken up from cryo-sleep by two teenage girls, Jenny Knight and Marner Fraden--both of whom think of the situation as odd and suspicious. For one, he was imprisoned in a cryogenic capsule under their school; two: their own schoolmate, Tim Ryan, was guarding him; and three: they find themselves to be relentlessly pursued by the most infamous and powerful terrorist organization in the nation because the Dehue they just woke up happens to be THE 'Dead Blue' responsible for the deaths of twenty million people. The situation only gets worse when Damian takes them and a few other companions hostage to escape the country. However, Damian is quick to realize that these hostages may be even crazier than he is, and not only do they outnumber him, they may also have plans of their own for him. [PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS 'DARK-BOY'] Cobalt Rogue is a 'director's cut' of the original volume--now re-edited and remastered.

Sidelined
Author: Julie DiCaro
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1524746126
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
“Sidelined is the feminist sports book we've all been waiting for.” —Jessica Valenti Shrill meets Brotopia in this personal and researched look at women's rights and issues through the lens of sports, from an award-winning sports journalist and women's advocate In a society that is digging deep into the misogyny underlying our traditions and media, the world of sports is especially fertile ground. From casual sexism, like condescending coverage of women’s pro sports, to more serious issues, like athletes who abuse their partners and face only minimal consequences, this area of our culture is home to a vast swath of gender issues that apply to all of us—whether or not our work and leisure time revolve around what happens on the field. No one is better equipped to examine sports through this feminist lens than sports journalist Julie DiCaro. Throughout her experiences covering professional sports for more than a decade, DiCaro has been outspoken about the exploitation of the female body, the covert and overt sexism women face in the workplace, and the male-driven toxicity in sports fandom. Now, through candid interviews, personal anecdotes, and deep research, she's tackling these thorny issues and exploring what America can do to give women a fair and competitive playing field in sports and beyond. Covering everything from the abusive online environment at Barstool Sports to the sexist treatment of Serena Williams and professional women's teams fighting for equal pay and treatment, and looking back at pioneering women who first took on the patriarchy in sports media, Sidelined will illuminate the ways sports present a microcosm of life as a woman in America—and the power in fighting back.
