Download or read book Violet and Daisy written by Sarah Miller and published by Schwartz & Wade. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of The Miracle & Tragedy of the Dionne Quintuplets and The Borden Murders comes the absorbing and compulsively readable story of Violet and Daisy Hilton, conjoined twins who were the sensation of the US sideshow circuits in the 1920s and 1930s. On February 5, 1908, Kate Skinner, a 21-year-old unmarried barmaid in Brighton, England, gave birth to twin girls. They each had ten fingers and ten toes, but were joined back to back at the base of the spine. Freaks, monsters--that's what they were called. Mary Hilton, Kate's employer and midwife, adopted Violet and Daisy and promptly began displaying the babies as "Brighton's United Twins." Exhibitions at street fairs, carnivals, and wax museums across England and Scotland followed. At 8 years old, the girls came to the United States, eventually becoming the stars of sideshow, vaudeville, and burlesque circuits in the 1920s and 1930s. In a story loaded with questions about identity and exploitation, Sarah Miller delivers a completely compelling, empathetic portrait of two sisters whose bonds were so sacred that nothing — not even death— would compel Violet and Daisy to break them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sun Keeps Setting examines in memoir-form the difficulties of dealing with aging and illness. Written as a daily journal, journal, thereby resisting outline, it focuses on my eighty-one-year-old fathers 1996 bypass surgery and the effect it had on the rest of the family. It deals with the immediately difficulties of complex medical decisions, the prospect of long-term nursing home confinement, financial strain and potential ruin, and the inevitable dredging up of the past such crises engender. I have dwelt at some length on the experience of growing up with my father and consequently define him through my own life. Being on the leading edge of the baby-boom generation, as the media keeps reminding me, I am experiencing a complex series of problems most people in my generation will have to face. My book offers no expertise on aging, Medicare, Social Security, or contemporary medicine. Those subjects are covered by other sources. But it does offer a perspective that a huge number of people in my generation should appreciate, since Ive come to realize that in many ways Im more typical of that generation than I had once thought. The first in my family to attend college, unsupported by family resources but bound to my family in many other waysnot all of them sentimentalIve experienced an alienating class shift without a corresponding financial gain. The experiences portrayed in this book constitute a body of knowledge accumulated without effort, distinguishing it from the knowledge afforded me by education, and I believe it speaks to whatever heart and soul my generation have.

Download or read book The Persian Mirror written by Susan Mokhberi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Persian Mirror explores France's preoccupation with Persia in the seventeenth century. Long before Montesquieu's Persian Letters, French intellectuals, diplomats and even ordinary Parisians were fascinated by Persia and eagerly consumed travel accounts, fairy tales, and the spectacle of the Persian ambassador's visit to Paris and Versailles in 1715. Using diplomatic sources, fiction and printed and painted images, The Persian Mirror describes how the French came to see themselves in Safavid Persia. In doing so, it revises our notions of orientalism and the exotic and suggests that early modern Europeans had more nuanced responses to Asia than previously imagined.
