Download or read book After the Blues written by Kathy Lette and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-10-31 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the daring, dazzling and hilarious sequel to Kathy Lette's best-selling debut, Puberty Blues, Debbie and her girlfriends reveal what women really talk about when men aren't around... It's the kaleidoscopic 1980s, a time of perms, shoulder pads, Blondie and Bowie, prawn cocktails, fondue parties and mistaking promiscuity for feminism and Debbie has run away to the inner-city world of punk rock, new mates and R-Rated adventures. Becoming a grown up is tricky especially when facing off against married men and misogynistic bosses, and Debbie realises that the only people she can rely on to her make sense of it all are her girlfriends. Regular girls' nights out prove cheaper than therapy - when friends can strip off to their emotional underwear, in a psychological strip tease which reveals all. It's the one night where all the truths come out....the good, bad and bawdy. With equal parts humour and pathos, Kathy Lette, one of the pioneering voices of contemporary feminism, in a re-write of her second novel GIRLS NIGHT OUT, exposes all the fun and foolish things girls do when scrabbling to find our high-heeled feet in the world. Praise for Kathy Lette: 'Fabulous, fast-paced, funny & unapologetically female. Nobody does it better.' DEBORAH FRANCES-WHITE, THE GUILTY FEMINIST 'Deliciously rude and darkly funny, but with compassion and humanity at its heart. Read with relish.' NICOLE KIDMAN 'Kathy Lette can turn from raunchy farce to the most tender emotion in a trice.' STEPHEN FRY

Download or read book McKenzie Rising written by Miles Wilson and published by University of Nevada Press. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A cultural satire, McKenzie Rising follows the MegaMax Corporation’s venture to turn the upper McKenzie Valley into an upscale development, the Estates at Rancho Rio. Having already bought out the regional state university, MegaMax is poised to complete its acquisition of the upper McKenzie, and its efforts are overseen by Marta Juggernaut, Wharton School MBA graduate and project manager at Rancho Rio, and by Mark Neighbors, Northwest Acquisitor for MegaMax. Their work is countered by a Dickensian ensemble of characters, many of whom are chronically sidetracked from the heroic community purpose by various amatory diversions. Given that the protesters include such locals as D.B. Cooper (the long-vanished airplane hijacker) and Sasquatch, in all his odoriferous glory, the reader is in for a rollicking but powerfully thought-provoking journey. A lusty, environmental picaresque, McKenzie Rising satirizes our shortfalls, while celebrating our resilience and the triumph of community. The book offers a corrective to some of the amendable follies we lug with us as we careen into the (post)-Trump, (post)-COVID era.
