Download or read book Home Remedies written by Xuan Juliana Wang and published by Hogarth. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A FINALIST FOR THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY YOUNG LIONS FICTION AWARD • SHORTLISTED FOR THE PEN/ROBERT W. BINGHAM PRIZE FOR DEBUT SHORT STORY COLLECTION • WINNER OF THE CALIFORNIA BOOK AWARDS GOLD MEDAL IN FIRST FICTION • WINNER OF THE JOHN ZACHARIS FIRST BOOK AWARD • LONGLISTED FOR THE STORY PRIZE • NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY LIBRARY JOURNAL “An urgent and necessary literary voice.”—Alexander Chee, Electric Literature “Tough, luminous stories.”—The New York Times Book Review “Spectacular.”—Vogue Xuan Juliana Wang's remarkable debut introduces us to the new and changing face of Chinese youth. From fuerdai (second-generation rich kids) to a glass-swallowing qigong grandmaster, her dazzling, formally inventive stories upend the immigrant narrative to reveal a new experience of belonging: of young people testing the limits of who they are, in a world as vast and varied as their ambitions. In stories of love, family, and friendship, here are the voices, faces and stories of a new generation never before captured between the pages in fiction. What sets them apart is Juliana Wang’s surprising imagination, able to capture the innermost thoughts of her characters with astonishing empathy, as well as the contradictions of the modern immigrant experience in a way that feels almost universal. Home Remedies is, in the words of Alexander Chee, “the arrival of an urgent and necessary literary voice we’ve been needing, waiting for maybe, without knowing.” Praise for Home Remedies “A radiant new talent.”—Lauren Groff “These dazzling stories interrogate the fractures, collisions and glorious new alloys of what it means to be a Chinese millennial.”—Adam Johnson, author of the Pulitzer Prize–winning The Orphan Master’s Son “Home Remedies doesn’t read like a first collection; like Jhumpa Lahiri’s Interpreter of Maladies, the twelve stories here announce the arrival of an exciting, electric new voice.”—Financial Times “Stylistically ambitious in a way rarely seen in prose fiction . . . Writing like this will never stop enlightening us. [Wang’s] voice comes to us from the edge of a new world.”—Los Angeles Review of Books

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the early nineties, singer-songwriter and former Blake Babies member Juliana Hatfield’s solo career was taking off: She was on the cover of Spin and Sassy. Ben Stiller directed the video for her song "Spin the Bottle" from the Reality Bites film soundtrack. Then, after canceling a European tour to treat severe depression and failing to produce another "hit," she spent a decade releasing well reviewed albums on indie labels and performing in ever-smaller clubs. A few years ago, she found herself reading the New Yorker on a filthy couch in the tiny dressing room of a punk club and asked, "Why am I still doing this?" By turns wryly funny and woundingly sincere, When I Grow Up takes you behind the scenes of rock life as Hatfield recounts her best and worst days, the origins of her songs, the source of her woes, and her quest to find a new purpose in life.

The last thing he needs is stuck-up Everly Jenkins as his new tutor—those beautiful blue eyes catching every last flaw. For Everly, normal was a perfect family around the dinner table, playing piano at Sunday service, and sunning by the pool. Until she discovers her whole life is a lie. Now the perfect pastor's daughter is hiding a life-changing secret, one that is slowly tearing her family apart. And spending the summer with notorious flirt Trevor Lewis means her darkest secret could be exposed.

Book excerpt: Falling in Love is a romantic novel about two career women: Danielle Bennett, vice-president of a successful San Francisco investment firm, and Juliana Hunt, a concert artist of growing international acclaim. Each has dedicated her life to achieving one goal: public success. Their attraction—-friendship charged with sexual tension—-belies each woman ́s well-ordered life of professional success and the love a man. Neither Juliana nor Danielle has ever had a relationship with a woman before, but they are drawn to one another in a way that surprises and overwhelms them both. Both Juliana and Danielle feel their friendship deepening, and both fight this growing personal involvement that neither has ever allowed herself before, with friend or lover. The task of keeping one another at "arm ́s length," figuratively and literally, becomes more difficult when Danielle invites Juliana to stay at her home for the two weeks Juliana will be in San Francisco. Juliana tries to convince herself and Danielle that they are only friends: "We both have lovers. You have Grant, I have Tony. We can ́t be falling love with one another." Tony is Juliana ́s mercurial lover, an interior designer with an international clientele, with whom she has romantic rendezvous when their busy travel schedules land them in the same city at the same time. Grant is Danielle ́s steady escort, a corporate lawyer who has entrusted Danielle with a secret about himself that could destroy his career. As the friendship of Juliana and Danielle grows, so does their desire for intimacy, which moves them from friendly hugs to a night of tender, sensuous lovemaking—-deep fulfillment that neither has ever experienced before. Dedicated as each is to the success of her career and her public persona, each must decide if she can accept the difficulties, socially and professionally, that a commitment to another woman would mean in her life--especially the real danger of losing the position and prestige each has worked so hard to earn for herself. Readers will wonder to the very last pages of the novel what each woman will decide. Falling in Love is unabashedly a "quick, sexy read" for women—straight or gay—who want to be turned on by romance.

Download or read book Red Velvet Underground written by Freda Love Smith and published by Agate Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-21 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Not only a rock memoir and recipe book but also a poignant work of personal self-discovery and the challenges yet joys of parenting.” —Huffington Post Part memoir, part cookbook, and all rock and roll, Red Velvet Underground tells the story of how musician Freda Love Smith’s indie-rock past grew into her family—and food-centric present. Smith, born in Nashville and raised in Indiana, is best known as the drummer and co-founder of bands such as the Boston-based Blake Babies, Antenna, and the Mysteries of Life. Red Velvet Underground is loosely framed around cooking lessons Smith gave to her eldest son, Jonah, before he left for college. Smith compares her son’s experiences to her own—meeting Juliana Hatfield and starting the Blake Babies, touring in Evan Dando’s hand-me-down station wagon, and crashing with Henry Rollins, who introduced the band to local California fare—all while plumbing the deeper meanings behind the role of food, cooking, and family. Interspersed throughout these stories are forty-five flexitarian recipes—mostly, but not exclusively, vegetarian—such as red pepper-cashew spread, spinach and brazil nut pesto, and vegan strawberry-cream scones. Throughout the book, Smith reveals how food, in addition to music, has evolved into an important means for creativity and improvisation. Red Velvet Underground is an engaging exploration of the ways food and music have informed identity through every stage of one woman’s life. “These are sweet, unsentimental scenes from the ever-evolving life of a woman of many shifting and balancing roles: mother, wife, drummer, student, teacher, friend, daughter, food enthusiast. It’s all tied together with tantalizing recipes that have been lovingly improvised and tweaked into a life-affirming doneness.” —Juliana Hatfield, musician
