Take My Word: Autobiographical Innovations of Ethnic American Working Women

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In an innovative critique of traditional approaches to autobiography, Anne E. Goldman convincingly demonstrates that ethnic women can and do speak for themselves, even in the most unlikely contexts. Citing a wide variety of nontraditional textsincluding the cookbooks of Nuevo Mexicanas, African American memoirs of midwifery and healing, and Jewish women`s histories of the garment industryGoldman illustrates how American women have asserted their ethnic identities and made their voices heard over and sometimes against the interests of publishers, editors, and readers. While the dominant culture has interpreted works of ethnic literature as representative of a people rather than an individual, the working women of this study insist upon their own agency in narrating rich and complicated self-portraits.

Take That: Now and Then

2007 y.
Publisher: HarperCollins UK
Description: Containing hot behind-the-scenes information on the band`s sold out comeback tour, this story of the most successful British band since The Beatles gives a complete history of the group. Formed in Manchester in the early 1990s, theirs was not an easy beginning. Grueling training schedules and tours gigs in empty school halls had to be endured before the boys finally made it in the fickle world of pop music. Once they made it, the only thing more certain than Take That`s next single going straight into the Top Ten was that they would clean up at every award ceremony. But behind the glamour and success, tensions mounted. Robbie Williams was sliding into the depths of depression and left the band on the eve of their 1995 tour. By 1996, Take That were no more. Speaking exclusively to those inside the music industry who knew them best, many of whom have never spoken publicly about their experiences, music journalist Martin Roach recounts exactly what went on behind the scenes during those… [detailed...]

With their windfall profits, they continue to buy American assets. China’s booming economy and abundance of cheap labor are threatening our economic survival. We have mortgaged our fortunes, our principles, and our way of life. A A A A A A A A A A A In this comprehensive look at the real, human toll of America’s unsound trade policy, Senator Byron Dorgan exposes the myth of “free trade.” Indeed, free trade is not free, it is something that is slowly but surely draining away American prosperity.

Description: She is the youngest person ever shortlisted for a Governor-General`s award for narrative poetry. Still in her early 30s, Tammy Armstrong is already a poet of significance, whose work has appeared in journals and anthologies in Canada, the US and Europe. Take Us Quietly returns to her favourite subjects, this time with a decidedly sharper edge. In this new collection, Armstrong explores life, sickness, death and the importance of paying attention to the wider world, filtered through her own unique sensibility. `I was once told that we`re all just one second away from death, which is monumental when you stop to think how we take life for granted.` Nothing is taken for granted in her new collection, a portion of which was a finalist for the 2005 CBC Literary Awards. Whether travelling through Spain, mining a memory from a rural New Brunswick childhood, or exposing the concessions of love in a long-term relationship, Armstrong creates poems that leap from thought to thought, from one… [detailed...]
