Look at Me
Author: Jennifer Egan
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 1400033276
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST • In this ambitiously multilayered novel from the bestselling, award-winning author of A Visit from the Goon Squad, a fashion model named Charlotte Swenson emerges from a car accident in her Illinois hometown with her face so badly shattered that it takes eighty titanium screws to reassemble it. She returns to New York still beautiful but oddly unrecognizable, a virtual stranger in the world she once effortlessly occupied. With the surreal authority of a David Lynch, Jennifer Egan threads Charlotte’s narrative with those of other casualties of our infatuation with the image. There’s a deceptively plain teenaged girl embarking on a dangerous secret life, an alcoholic private eye, and an enigmatic stranger who changes names and accents as he prepares an apocalyptic blow against American society. As these narratives inexorably converge, Look at Me becomes a coolly mesmerizing intellectual thriller of identity and imposture.

Book Description
Children all over the world dream to do, and to be, great things. Unfortunately, many things often block those dreams: social and economic realities; cultural and racial bias, etc. In school, parents may feel pressured to steer their children toward academic achievement while ignoring the child’s heart-cry to play, to create, to imagine and to dream. As a parent myself, I have noted my own tendencies to encourage academic success over heart-centered creativity. Most parents, teachers and child-care workers are balancing multiple demands and just trying to survive the daily grind! So, I offer this book as an encouragement to LISTEN closely to every child’s dream. Give their imagination attention. Perhaps, YOU will be the person who helps to make their dream into reality.

Book Description
Whether or not we recognize it, or wish to, each of us is initially judged on how we are perceived. These initial perceptions are almost always based upon physical attributes, past experiences, or simply developed over time. This story is meant to show just how superficial this type of thinking is and send a message of hope, creativity, and above all, acceptance. We are all different, and yet have many things in common. Hopefully, this will resonate not only with children but all individuals, no matter their age. Each of us needs to instill this ideal and understand that we are all unique and embrace who we are.
