Book Description
Petambi and the Moon is a celebration of Gods faithfulness, as witnessed by the constant presence of the moon each night. It explores the fragile yet hilarious world of teenage life, which vacillates between independence and childhood, along with a budding awareness of sexuality. I rewrote my life to understand how Christ moved within. In the searching, stumbling heart of Petambi there are heroic and ridiculous battles with first love, the book of Genesis, alcoholism, and the shock of death. Petambis friend, Bear, is invisible to all but her. He is fashioned after a Franciscan Friar, who was a clown with me for nine years and who could make children laugh. I hope Petambi and the Moon brings you joy as well.

Dostoevsky and the Woman Question
Author: Nina Pelikan Straus
Publisher: Palgrave MacMillan
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
This is the first full-length study of Dostoevsky's work to explore the relation between his male characters and his female characters from a feminist perspective. Intended not to impose feminist ideology upon the writer but rather to enlarge feminist discourse through Dostoevsky, it offers new interpretations of the novels that emphasize gender crisis. Dostoevsky's defense against Western Secularization and breakdown takes the form of inscribing "the feminine" as sacred. But this sacralization is undermined by his deeper intuition of the way certain masculine, sexist impulses exploit and eroticize female sacralization and by the way men's liberties conflict with women's liberation.
