Download or read book Now Voyager written by Olive Higgins Prouty and published by The Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The iconic American melodrama that inspired the 1943 cult classic film starring Bette Davis. “Charlotte Vale a timeless and very sophisticated Cinderella.” —Patricia Gaffney, New York Times bestselling author “Don’t let’s ask for the moon! We have the stars!” The film Now, Voyager concludes with these famous words, which reaffirmed Bette Davis’s own stardom and changed the way Americans smoked cigarettes. But few fans of this rich story know its source. Olive Higgins Prouty’s 1941 novel provides a rich, complex portrait of the inner life of its protagonist and the society she inhabits. Over half a century later, it still offers fresh and quietly radical takes on psychiatric treatment, traditional family life, female desire, and women’s agency. Boston blueblood Charlotte Vale has led an unhappy, sheltered life. Dowdy, repressed, and pushing forty, Charlotte finds salvation in the unlikely form of a nervous breakdown, placing her at a sanitarium, where she undergoes treatment to rebuild her ravaged self-esteem and uncover her true intelligence and charm. Femmes Fatales restores to print the best of women’s writing in the classic pulp genres of the mid-20th century. From mystery to hard-boiled noir to taboo lesbian romance, these rediscovered queens of pulp offer subversive perspectives on a turbulent era. “Like the film it inspired, Olive Higgins Prouty’s Now, Voyager is as striking for the conventions it bucks as for the ones it embraces: a vivid reminder of a time when people crossed the ocean in liners and wore hats, and a hymn to an American ideal of social, moral, and emotional independence.” —David Leavitt, author of Shelter in Place

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "All the tricks in this book are well within the range of the amateur magician. Some, of course, need a little more practice than others ... and it pays to rehearse them thoroughly, in front of an audience of family and close friends, before trying them out on a larger audience. This handy book gives tips and patter to help put your act over: what to say when tricks go right, when they go wrong, how to use your own personal appearance as the subject of jokes--and how to 'put down' the person who interrupts your act. Scattered throughout the book are Quickies--short jokes that you can slip into your routine whenever the chance arises."--Title page verso
