The Undertaker's Dozen
Author: David Forrest
Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton
ISBN: 1473613167
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
Terror can have such simple beginnings -- a child's letter to Father Christmas...a pretty girl glimpsed in a London street...a trip down the Brighton Road...a night spent in an empty mansion for a bet? And the consequences can be fearsome, as the unsleeping dead walk again, as strange emotions stir inanimate things to murderous life, as horrors beyond our imagining cross the threshold into our world; can anyone be sure that all is as it seems. After you read these thirteen tales of terror, can you?

Housewife
Author: Lisa Selin Davis
Publisher: Legacy Lit
ISBN: 1538722909
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
Discover the complete social history of the housewife archetype, from colonial America to the 20th century, and re-examine common myths about the “modern woman.” The notion of “housewife” evokes strong reactions. For some, it’s nostalgia for a bygone era, simpler and better times when men were breadwinners and women remained home with the kids. For others, it’s a sexist, oppressive stereotype of women’s work. Either way, housewife is a long outdated concept—or is it? Lisa Selin Davis, known for her smart, viral, feminist, cultural takes, argues that the “breadwinner vs. homemaker” divide is a myth. She charts examples from prehistoric female hunters to working class housewives in the 1930s, from First Ladies to 21st century stay-at-home moms, on a search for answers to the problems of what is referred to as women’s work and motherhood. Davis discovers that women have been sold a lie about what families should be. Housewife unveils a truth: interdependence, rather than independence, is the American way. The book is a clarion call for all women—married or single, mothers or childless—and for men, too, to push for liberation. In Housewife, Davis builds a case for systemic, cultural, and personal change, to encourage women to have the power to choose the best path for themselves.
