Download or read book See Through written by Nelly Reifler and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heartbreaking and haunting, wholly inventive, the unforgettable stories of Nelly Reifler's debut collection, See Through, imagine a world where the emotional logic of our dreams and childhood fantasies rule our actions. In the title story, an educated young woman sits behind the glass of a talk booth in a peep show and becomes a different girl for each man who visits. A thorn in a little girl's scalp becomes the physical locus for her painter father's grief and helplessness following his wife's leaving in "The Splinter." "Teeny" tells the story of an awkward, solitary pubescent girl who can't bring herself to perform the simple task of feeding the vacationing neighbors' cats. In "Baby," an infant asks his mother existential questions that are impossible to answer. Nelly Reifler, winner of the Henfield/Transatlantic Review Prize for two of the stories in this collection, explores her characters' psyches and motivations with the precision of an anthropologist, detailing their physical urges and fears, and the desire, isolation, and violence that drive -- and sometimes consume -- them. But more than her desire to expose splintered personalities, Reifler plumbs the deep chasm between expectations and reality with infinite hope, warmth, and wisdom. A powerful and extraordinary collection, See Through heralds the arrival of a significant new voice in contemporary fiction.
Download or read book The See Through House written by Shelley Klein and published by Random House. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A charming account of a daughter, a house and a fastidious dad' Sunday Times Shelley Klein grew up in the Scottish Borders, in a house designed on a modernist open-plan grid. With colourful glass panels set against a forest of trees, it was like living in a work of art. Her father, Bernat Klein, was a textile designer whose pioneering colours and textures were a major contribution to 1960s and 70s style. Thirty years on, Shelley moves back home to care for her father, now in his eighties: the house has not changed and neither has his uncompromising vision - or his distinctive way of looking at the world. Told with great tenderness and humour, this is Shelley's account of looking after an adored yet maddening parent and a piercing portrait of the grief that followed his death. 'A sad, funny, utterly fascinating book about families, home and how to say goodbye' Mark Haddon 'Original, moving and bracingly honest... often hilarious' Blake Morrison, Guardian 'It is strange that grief should produce such a life-affirming book, but it has. Read it for the solace it contains, or for its captivating descriptions. Either way, it's a delight' Telegraph

Book excerpt: Marriage is all about sharing: sharing space, sharing joys and sorrows, sharing hopes and dreams. Yet we often hold back a part of ourselves because we fear that being wholly transparent--about our past, our desires, our failures, our faults--will bring judgment, rejection, or even just unwanted friction to our relationship.

In this new, paradigm-shifting book, they show you how to develop a see-through marriage, one that is marked by full transparency and confident vulnerability. Through personal stories, testimonies from other couples, and biblical truth, they make the case that living authentically in front of each other is the only way to experience love the way we were designed to.

Book excerpt: Return to the lavish world of Black prestige, prominence and perseverance in the Black Hamptons. Eugenia Rouse Several years ago, I had it all. Married to a wealthy banker in New York, my social worker career on the rise, this girl from the South side of Chicago had left behind her hard knock life. But the fairytale could not silence my demons, or heal me from my family's past tragedy. Now I'm a single mother in a bare-knuckled court battle with my ex-husband, and on the brink of losing the most important person to me--my son. I can't foul up again. So I'm not taking any risks. Not on crazy social scenes, not on foreign excursions with strangers, and not on romance. Especially not with the brazen, rowdy likes of Keenan McLain. Keenan McLain Hell, I'm a roughneck from Baltimore who loves his smash-first-ask-questions-later lifestyle. As the CEO of the East Coast's new black-owned luxury adventure company, I can have practically any woman here in the Hamptons I want. But damn, I'm growing obsessed with only one. Our Christmas hookup a few months ago was supposed to be a one-and-done. But Eugenia was too explosive, a quiet storm with depth she hides from the world and I want more of. But that night really was just a puff-puff-pass for her. She's older than me. People say she's got issues, but I'm the one having withdrawals over her. Am I really ready to give up my life and go all in to be her man? How do I convince her to move on from her past despair, and take a risk with her heart one more time? Especially for an unproven young 'hood like me. This is Book 4 of Explore Men of the Hamptons series, and can be read as a standalone. It has a prequel novella offered for free on Lula White's web site--Christmas Down Under-- but it is not necessary to understand this storyline. This is a complete narrative and an HEA, but characters and series storylines are continued from previous books.

Download or read book See Through Ledoux written by Rodolphe El-Khoury and published by Oro Editions. This book was released on 2006 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Claude-Nicolas Ledoux's engraving Coup d'oeil du théâtre Besançon in which the architect's building is seen reflected in the eye of a viewer, is the center piece in this intellectual archaeology. Rodolphe el-Khoury's close reading of Ledoux's celebrated icon uses it to excavate the foundations of architectural transparency, Modernism's most potent and lasting "invention," which is here traced back to an intellectual milieu that precedes the industrial revolution's glass and steel building technology. The image becomes a site of entry into the culture of the eighteenth century - debates in public health, the political ideas of Rousseau, the philosophy of Condillac, the project of the Encyclopaedie - yielding insights into important philosophical, and architectural issues. The book includes a translation of Ledoux's chapter on the theater from his magnum opus, Considarae Sous le Rapport de l'art, des Moers, et de la Legislation ILLUSTRATIONS: 5 colour & 60 b/w photographs
