Book Description
In this fairy tale with a sexy twist, she's a penniless San Francisco seamstress. He's the king of Italian couture. Who's got designs on whom? Boutique owner Kimber DiSanto has seen better days. She's been dumped at the altar by Prince Charmless, her business went up in flames (literally), and now she's stuck in Florence, Italy, with an ice-queen stepmother, to try to save her late father's failing dress shop. Only one thing could make it worse: another man in her life. The arrogant Italian fashion tycoon offering to buy her father's shop is as rich as he is sexy, and their attraction is off the charts. But Kimber's not about to get burned again. Women don't say no to Matteo Moretti--and certainly not with Kimber's stinging precision. With all the heat and fury sparking between them, Matteo can't resist baiting the gorgeous American. His plan? Win her over one scorching kiss at a time. Kimber tells herself it's all just a game. That her broken heart isn't in danger, and that Matteo's touch does not make her Lady Land dance with joy. But sometimes it takes the fieriest of enemies to turn a fantasy into a real-life romance.

The Ferrante Letters
Author: Sarah Chihaya
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 023155088X
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Like few other works of contemporary literature, Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan novels found an audience of passionate and engaged readers around the world. Inspired by Ferrante’s intense depiction of female friendship and women’s intellectual lives, four critics embarked upon a project that was both work and play: to create a series of epistolary readings of the Neapolitan Quartet that also develops new ways of reading and thinking together. In a series of intertwined, original, and daring readings of Ferrante’s work and her fictional world, Sarah Chihaya, Merve Emre, Katherine Hill, and Juno Jill Richards strike a tone at once critical and personal, achieving a way of talking about literature that falls between the seminar and the book club. Their letters make visible the slow, fractured, and creative accretion of ideas that underwrites all literary criticism and also illuminate the authors’ lives outside the academy. The Ferrante Letters offers an improvisational, collaborative, and cumulative model for reading and writing with others, proposing a new method the authors call collective criticism. A book for fans of Ferrante and for literary scholars seeking fresh modes of intellectual exchange, The Ferrante Letters offers incisive criticism, insouciant riffs, and the pleasure of giving oneself over to an extended conversation about fiction with friends.

Missing Time

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Over the past few years, in essays published in n+1, Jewish Currents, and elsewhere, Ari M. Brostoff has grappled with the intellectual upheavals and political contradictions that surfaced during the Trump era. After the breaking point of the 2016 election, Brostoff writes, "the world came back into hideous focus" and they began to feel, for the first time, "like a long-term inhabitant of the present." Missing Time collects five remarkable essays and a new introduction that trace the return of the 20th century's political and cultural repressed in personal and collective terms. In prose that is simultaneously sharp and soulful, mournful and ecstatic, Brostoff offers lucid considerations of the reemergent millennial left, the enigmas of the X-Files, the complexities of Philip Roth's (anti-)Zionism, and other novelties, atavisms, and atavisms newly reborn as novelties. From the communist ardor of the Bronx circa 1940 to the '90s haze of the San Fernando Valley to a Brooklyn apartment building's tenants' association in the midst of a global pandemic, Missing Time collapses past and present into a revelatory encounter with very recent history.

Fourteen years have passed since the virus ripped through the global population, crushing the modern world and leaving the cities crawling with the infected.

Now, a new menace is lurking beyond the horizon, threatening to destroy everything they've built.
