Cómo se hace una chica

release date: May 01, 2015
Cómo se hace una chica
Si eres una adolescente con unos kilos de más, formas parte de una familia numerosa con una economía precaria, tienes un padre con aspiraciones nunca cumplidas que abusa de la botella, y una madre depresiva, la vida puede ser un asco. Si para colmo haces el ridículo en la televisión local leyendo un poema, probablemente ha llegado el momento de tomar una decisión drástica. Empezando por cambiarte el nombre. Así es como Johanna Morrigan se convierte en Dolly Wilde y, sin haber cumplido la mayoría de edad, empieza a dedicarse a la crítica musical en una revista londinense. Y, entre concierto y concierto, la protagonista y narradora de esta novela de iniciación relata sin pelos en la lengua su empeño en convertirse en adulta a base de fumar, beber y dejar de masturbarse con artilugios variopintos para pasar al sexo con hombres no menos variopintos. La autora deja muy claro desde el principio que esto es una novela y no una autobiografía, pero su personaje comparte no pocas experiencias vitales con ella.--Back cover.

Comment je suis devenue célèbre en restant chez moi
On ne peut pas écrire un livre en un jour ! Je me suis assise à dix heures du matin avec une tasse de chocolat et un sandwich à la confiture, pour commencer à écrire la première page. Quand j’ai relevé la tête, il était 11h04. Je n’avais rempli que deux pages. Imaginant que pour produire des mots, il fallait me fournir en énergie, je me suis fait trois autres sandwichs. Quand j’ai relevé la tête, éblouie comme une chouette, épuisée par l’effort, les doigts collants de confiture, il était 11h47. J’avais écrit 101 mots. J’ai commencé à comprendre que mon plan, qui était d’écrire entre quinze et trente livres par an, avait besoin de quelques ajustements. J’ai fini d’écrire mon livre deux ans plus tard.

Víc než žena
Autorka volně navazuje na svou předchozí knihu Jak být ženou a vtipnou formou podává své postřehy ze života stárnoucí ženy. Caitlin Moranová před deseti lety předpokládala, že má všechny trable za sebou. V globálním bestselleru Jak být ženou se vypořádala s patriarchátem, feminismem a vůbec vším, co obnáší moderní "ženství", a měl ji čekat spokojený dospělý život plný skvělého sexu a harmonického rodičovství. Víc se mýlit nemohla. V nové knize se spisovatelka zaobírá výzvami, které v současnosti čekají na "zralé" ženy. Víc než žena je břitkým průvodcem dospělostí i smířením s faktem, že seznam povinností, potřeb a potíží se bude jen prodlužovat. Ale ať už to jsou stárnoucí rodiče, dospívající a náladové děti, odcizující se partner, nebo proměňující se vlastní tělo, Moranová neztrácí nadhled a smysl pro řádně kousavý humor. Stárnutí je v jejím pojetí oslavou života - i když obnáší nudný sex, protivné puberťáky a nezničitelné faldy. Nebo možná právě proto. Nakladatelská anotace. Kráceno.

The Last Decade

release date: Jan 01, 2021
The Last Decade
Death becomes exponentially more probable with each year of aging. Acknowledging this when making health care decisions has important consequences for quality of life, as the benefits of care may not outweigh the costs if little time remains to enjoy those benefits. Death expectations across the lifespan influence how people prepare for and experience death, but little is known about the trajectories of death expectations in the final years of life and how those trajectories relate to health care use. Using biennial subjective survival probability (SSP) ratings gathered over the decade prior to death from participants ages 65 and older in the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), latent profile analyses (LPA) were used to identify profiles of participants using meaningful subgroups. The optimal solution included four distinct profiles of SSP trajectories labeled realists, non-commitals, pessimists, and optimists. A series of t-test, chi-square, one-way ANOVA, and repeated measures ANOVA analyses were then conducted to identify characteristic features of the groups and assess for any differences in health care behaviors and death attitudes. Results demonstrated that two of four profiles had a significant increase in SSP from wave four to wave five: the optimists and non-committals. The pessimists were older at death than non-committals and realists, and were more likely to have had a final illness duration of more than a year than the full sample; pessimists had worse self-perceptions of health than optimists and realists; optimists were less likely to have a living will than the full sample and more likely to identify as African American than their representations in the full sample; and optimists reported fewer depressive symptoms and health conditions than pessimists. I also hypothesized that SSPs during the last decade of life would predict health care use in the same period and that optimists and realists would use more health care health care than pessimists; these hypotheses were not confirmed.

"Mutually Exclusive"

"Mutually Exclusive"
The thesis explores the treatment of gender and sexuality in William Shakespeare''s comedy Twelfth Night, or What You Will. By examining Shakespeare''s exploration of gender identity and sexual fluidity, this thesis investigates the nature of these elements in relation to the overall theme of the text. While traditionally thought of as mutually exclusive elements, sexuality and gender are juxtaposed throughout the text, causing characters to reflect on their own identities.

Hva gjør du når du som tenåring innser at det foreldrene dine lærte deg ikke var tilstrekkelig? Du må ut og finne bøker, poesi, poplåter og dårlige helter.
