Love in the Time of Contagion
Author: Laura Kipnis
Publisher: Pantheon
ISBN: 0593316282
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
In this timely, insightful, and darkly funny investigation, the acclaimed author of Against Love asks: what does living in dystopic times do to our ability to love each other and the world? COVID-19 has produced new taxonomies of love, intimacy, and vulnerability. Will its cultural afterlife be as lasting as that of HIV, which reshaped consciousness about sex and love even after AIDS itself had been beaten back by medical science? Will COVID end up making us more relationally conservative, as some think HIV did within gay culture? Will it send us fleeing into emotional silos or coupled cocoons, despite the fact that, pre-COVID, domestic coupledom had been steadily losing fans? Just as COVID revealed our nation to itself, so did it hold a mirror up to our relationships. In Love in the Time of Contagion, Laura Kipnis weaves (often hilariously) her own (ambivalent) coupled lockdown experiences together with those of others and sets them against a larger backdrop: the politics of the virus, economic disparities, changing gender relations, and the ongoing institutional crack-ups prompted by #MeToo and Black Lives Matter, mapping their effects on the everyday routines and occasional solaces of love and sex.

The Line Between Life, Death & Love

Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
No one ever said life was easy. But I thought that, you know, after losing a loved one, things might start letting up for once. I couldn't be more wrong. If someone had told me that two of the most masculine men I'd ever come across would be after me in a matter of weeks, I'd have blushed, laughed and moved on. If someone had told me that I had another half that'd been lying dormant all this time until my family's loss, I'd have gotten mad and punched them in the face for being ridiculous and inconsiderate. If someone had just had the decency to tell me that I would have to choose a side, I would have run as fast as I could. But no one had told me. Now, my normal day consists of guiding spirits, fighting off demons, almost dying, and falling in love with two men who wanted me for reasons of their own. My name is Jane Rivers. Welcome to my life.

A Thin Line Between Love and Hate
Author: Darryl A. Lansey
Publisher: Bookbaby
ISBN: 9781098318871
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
Author James Baldwin once said, "A journey is called that because you cannot know what you will discover on the journey, what you will do, what you will find, or what you find will do to you." In A Thin Line Between Love and Hate: A Black Man's Journey Through Life and the CIA, Darryl Lansey takes readers on a journey from his childhood growing up in a working class Black family in Baltimore, Maryland to the secretive halls of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). During his more than 30 years with CIA, Darryl traveled the world collecting and analyzing secret information in support of six presidents' administrations from Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump. Darryl describes his tenure with CIA as a "strange love affair." He loved the Agency and the work of trying to keep the United States safe from its enemies. Yet, he also describes the mental and physical pain he endured that stood in contrast to his loyalty to his country, as CIA's deeply rooted systemic racism and its white managers repeatedly thwarted his career aspirations. Despite the personal hurdles he faced, Darryl worked throughout his career to transform CIA's diversity and inclusion and leadership cultures for the better, so future generations of employees are able to thrive.
