Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This will always be a trending topic. I have my own personal views on this subject that I plan on sharing in full detail. Because many women have experienced the effects of the other women destroying their lives and marriages they may not take an objective view. I completely understand and will whole heartedly be sympathetic and take their feelings into consideration. There is obviously at least 3 sides to the story of a love triangle and I intend to give all of their perspectives a thorough evaluation. This will get complex but I will break it down into small portions so that everyone can digest it from their own individual levels of comprehension. So let’s take a journey into the realm of the realities of getting caught up in a love TKO. It is my opinion that serious committed unions are a product of the individuals involved. Meaning that you can only get out of a relationship what you put into it. It is a work in progress. Some members wake up late, never show up on time, and don’t put any work into it at all. While others clock in early, be productive, and show pride in their accomplishments. It is a team concept. The goal is to build a solid team that can overcome all of the obstacles put before them. It is never easy and full of all of the challenges that life has to offer. There is beauty in taking on these encounters as a fully functional unit and working as a couple to take on the world while becoming a championship caliber contender. This just doesn’t happen overnight. It takes years of getting to know each other intimately and intensely. Here is where things get even more complicated. When another man or woman gets added to the equation. For the purpose of this conversation we are going to discuss the other women which is commonly referred to as a side dish. She is an unwanted distraction to the female participant in this scenario because it was never her intension to share him with another member of the female persuasion or be replaced by her for that matter. Her introduction was unwanted and unnecessary. She can only cause a separation or destruction of the entire structure that you worked diligently in building with him. The competitive nature is alive and transforming the entire concept of what was once a loving commitment into an Olympic event with several opposing forces. Some women concede and move on to the next admirer while others lock horns and duel for his affections. However things play themselves out it will never be as it was before the act of betrayal. Women are getting more and more frustrated with the lying and cheating ways of their male counterparts. They may realistically feel as if they are fighting a losing battle. This is something that I often overhear in passing. Apparently side chicks are winning the war.

Download or read book In the Dream House written by Carmen Maria Machado and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revolutionary memoir about domestic abuse by the award-winning author of Her Body and Other Parties In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming. And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope—the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman—through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships. Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.

Set during one of the most tumultuous years in recent American history, one crazy summer is the heartbreaking, funny tale of three girls in search of the mother who abandoned them—an unforgettable story told by a distinguished author of books for children and teens, Rita Williams-Garcia.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of black women and men—bodies exploited through slavery and segregation, and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’s attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences, from Howard University to Civil War battlefields, from the South Side of Chicago to Paris, from his childhood home to the living rooms of mothers whose children’s lives were taken as American plunder. Beautifully woven from personal narrative, reimagined history, and fresh, emotionally charged reportage, Between the World and Me clearly illuminates the past, bracingly confronts our present, and offers a transcendent vision for a way forward.
