DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Talia Scott is a spontaneous Southern girl whose dream is to become an artist, despite her family's innate skepticism at her career choice. When she leaves her small town to attend Bridgeport College on the other side of the country, she meets Archie Morgan: a quirky, thoughtful boy who quickly becomes her best friend-and wingman.

Calamity Of Desire And Other Stories

de Judith Dancoff

~~24,87€~~ 19,90€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Calamity of Desire and Other Stories is a debut collection of short fiction by Pushcart-Prize nominated author Judith Dancoff, now available from the award-winning independent publisher Finishing Line Press.Described as "luminous" by Los Angeles Festival of Books judge Diane Smith, the seven short stories and one novella weave famous works of art with sometimes real, sometimes fictional artists and protagonists, living through the conflicts of their time. In vivid, lyrical prose and told from the female gaze, Dancoff's debut collection pairs events of history, and of life, with the healing power of art, to find the boundaries of the human heart.The title story of the collection, "The Calamity of Desire," depicts the life of Ria Munk, a young Viennese woman of the last century who commits suicide over a broken heart. "Men have died throughout history on the battlefield," says Ria, "medals lain across their graves, and why shouldn't a woman's death for love be equally esteemed?" As the painter Gustav Klimt attempts her death portrait, Ria's ghost narrates his efforts, relives her failed love affair, and comes to terms with her suicide. One of the works stolen by the Nazis, the painting now hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. "The Calamity of Desire" (originally titled "The Death of Ria Munk") was nominated for a Pushcart Prize.In "Still Life with Cherries," Louise Moillon, the first female artist to be accepted into the French Academy of Art, grows up in 17th century Paris during the Huguenot/Catholic conflict and finds her voice as a painter. At the end of the story, she begins her painting Still Life with Cherries, based on an actual Moillon still life. "Terminus," winner of the Theodore C. Hoepfner Award for best story of the year, is inspired by the life of the 19th c. sharpshooter Annie Oakley who joins Buffalo Bill's troop in Paris for the opening of the Eiffel Tower, where she encounters the artist Paul Gauguin and struggles to save one of his child models from the same fate she experienced as a child. The basis of a current screenplay in-progress, "Terminus" is inspired by the life of Annie Oakley and Gauguin's painting of his thirteen-year-old mistress, Annah the Javanese.Juli Min, editor of The Shanghai Literary Review and author of Shanghailanders, comments about the collection: "The Calamity of Desire is both timeless and quietly subversive: an essential for any art lover, artist, lover, human."Other artists and their works depicted in The Calamity of Desire include Auguste Renoir, Diego Velasquez, John Singer Sargent, and Johannes Vermeer, in stories that span the 17th c to the present day.

Blue Eyes And A Wild Spirit - A Life Of Dorothy Wellesley

de Jane Wellesley

~~14,40€~~ 11,52€ 20% IMEDIATO

 Dorothy Wellesley was a poet, traveller, heiress and rebel. When she became the lover of Vita Sackville-West, it wrecked her marriage to the future Duke of Wellington. Through Vita, Dorothy met Virginia Woolf and gained a unique view of the iconic and intensely self-absorbed Bloomsbury Group. W.B. Yeats hailed her as one of the most talented poets of her generation. She was his intimate friend in his final years and his muse. Yet despite being a writer, editor and champion of poetry throughout her life, she ranks highly among the most overlooked women poets of the 20th century. This intimate biography draws on unpublished material, including private Wellesley family papers and hitherto unknown source material, to create a riveting story of love, secret friendships and betrayal. Unconventional, reckless and often vulnerable, Dorothy Wellesley was a woman ahead of her time.

Michael Mares traces his family lineage from the mid-twentieth century barrio of Old Town, Albuquerque, New Mexico to the ancient lands of pre-Spain. His ancestors were the conquerors and the conquered, people who were in America centuries before White culture arrived on the Mayflower. Chicanos have been war heroes, business executives, politicians, entertainers, social activists, authors, actors and billionaires, yet they are often ignored or even threatened with deportation. Despite plans to deport and punish them by the tens of millions, breaking up families and dragging them from their homes, they were here centuries before the United States of America was a country. They are not going anywhere.
