Book excerpt: "Francesca Tolot is the most extraordinary make-up artist of our time . . . The images in this book speak volumes about the intimacy of the camera and the willingness of one woman to show all the many, exciting parts of herself." --Beyonc Knowles Makeup artist Francesca Tolot has worked with Hollywood's top stars (including Elizabeth Taylor) and for all the major magazines. But for 20 years she has had a special relationship with one model: the exquisite, chameleon-like Mitzi Martin. One Woman, 100 Faces celebrates the unique collaboration between Martin, Francesca, and photographer Alberto Tolot. In breathtaking images, it captures both Francesca's amazing artistry and Martin's stunning transformations over the years. Embodying and intimately interpreting 100 different forms, moods, and identities--by turns innocent, graceful, feminine, raw, sexual, and mysterious--Mitzi's appearance morphs completely, even magically, with every turn of the page. Features a foreword by Beyonc Knowles

Book Development Has a Woman s Face

Download or read book Development Has a Woman s Face written by Krishna Ahooja-Patel and published by APH Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The richness of Krishna Ahoojapatel's analysis of the connections between women and the economy comes from the diversity of her engagements as a UN policymaker, an academic and an activist. Her analysis is therefore multidimensional. It is not a historical work, but captures four decades of changes in policies, in paradigms and in women's lives. It is rare to see such different strands come together in one person and one book." -Vandana Shiva, Founder/Director, Research Foundation of Science, Technology & Ecology, New Dehli.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric Literature 25 Best Novels of 2014 Largehearted Boy Favorite Novels of 2014 "An extraordinary new literary talent."--The Daily Telegraph "In part a portrait of the artist as a young woman, this deceptively modest-seeming, astonishingly inventive novel creates an extraordinary intimacy, a sensibility so alive it quietly takes over all your senses, quivering through your nerve endings, opening your eyes and heart. Youth, from unruly student years to early motherhood and a loving marriage--and then, in the book's second half, wilder and something else altogether, the fearless, half-mad imagination of youth, I might as well call it—has rarely been so freshly, charmingly, and unforgettably portrayed. Valeria Luiselli is a masterful, entirely original writer."--Francisco Goldman In Mexico City, a young mother is writing a novel of her days as a translator living in New York. In Harlem, a translator is desperate to publish the works of Gilberto Owen, an obscure Mexican poet. And in Philadelphia, Gilberto Owen recalls his friendship with Lorca, and the young woman he saw in the windows of passing trains. Valeria Luiselli's debut signals the arrival of a major international writer and an unexpected and necessary voice in contemporary fiction. "Luiselli's haunting debut novel, about a young mother living in Mexico City who writes a novel looking back on her time spent working as a translator of obscure works at a small independent press in Harlem, erodes the concrete borders of everyday life with a beautiful, melancholy contemplation of disappearance. . . . Luiselli plays with the idea of time and identity with grace and intuition." —Publishers Weekly

Book Our Lives To Live  Putting A Woman s Face To Change In Singapore

This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Lives to Live: Putting a Woman's Face to Change in Singapore explores and documents how women's roles, choices, and voices in Singapore have changed in the last 50 years; how women, from all sectors of society, have helped to shape the Singapore we know today. The 31 chapters, some with a more academic slant, others with a distinctly personal tone, reflect the rich diversity and depth of women's contributions to Singapore's evolution in the last half century, and also point to the problematical areas that still need attention.The perspectives in this book are provided by three generations of women, and they put a human face — the woman's face — to the tremendous changes in Singapore society over the past 50 years. The authors include some of Singapore's most accomplished women in many different fields — Speaker of Parliament Halimah Yacob, political scientist and diplomat Chan Heng Chee, global women's activist Noeleen Heyzer, sociologist and politician Aline Wong, food ambassador Violet Oon, sports legend Pat Chan, law lecturer and playwright Eleanor Wong, and novelist Meira Chand.

Book Conquered Conquerors

    Book Details:
  • Author : Danilo Verde
  • Publisher : SBL Press
  • Release : 2020-12-01
  • ISBN : 0884144682
  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book Conquered Conquerors written by Danilo Verde and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive study of the Song of Songs' use of military metaphors Although love transcends historical and cultural boundaries, its conceptualizations, linguistic expressions, and literary representations vary from culture to culture. In this study, Danilo Verde examines love through the military imagery found throughout the Song’s eight chapters. Verde approaches the military metaphors, similes, and scenes of the Song using cognitive metaphor theory to explore the overlooked representation of love as war. Additionally, this book investigates how the Song conceptualizes both the male and the female characters, showing that the concepts of masculinity and femininity are tightly interconnected in the poem. Conquered Conquerors provides fresh insights into the Song's figurative language and the conceptualization of gender in biblical literature.
