A “transformative” memoir “about a calamitous accident. . . . also about the accident of all our lives, and the . . . mortality that informs every one of our days” (Los Angeles Review of Books). In the early evening on October 1, 2003, Christina Crosby was three miles into a seventeen mile bicycle ride, intent on reaching her goal of one thousand miles for the riding season. She was a respected senior professor of English who had celebrated her fiftieth birthday a month before. As she crested a hill, she caught a branch in the spokes of her bicycle, which instantly pitched her to the pavement. Her chin took the full force of the blow, and her head snapped back. In that instant, she was paralyzed. In A Body, Undone, Crosby writes about a body shot through with neurological pain, disoriented in time and space, incapacitated by paralysis and deadened sensation. To address this foreign body, she calls upon the readerly pleasures of narrative, critical feminist and queer thinking, and the concentrated language of lyric poetry. She recalls her 1950s tomboy ways in small-town, rural Pennsylvania, and growing up during the 1970s through radical feminism and the affirmations of gay liberation. Deeply unsentimental, A Body, Undone is a compelling account of living on, as Crosby rebuilds her body and fashions a life through writing, memory, and desire. “An extraordinary and luminous book.” —Judith Butler, author of Precarious Life “Tender, fierce, and eloquent.” —Laura S. Levitt, author of American Jewish Loss after the Holocaust “[Crosby] asks readers to recognize how messy, precarious, and queer, in every sense of the word, life in a body can be.” —The NewYorker.com “Elegant and harrowing.” —The Washington PostMostra libro
One man looking for love in all the wrong places. Another always in the wrong place. Brokenhearted and love-scorn, Johnny finds himself forced back into the dating pool by his overbearing mother and meddling best friend. Is it fate, interference, or a dating app glitch that keeps pairing him with his complete opposite, a handsome brick mason with a smile that makes bad decisions worthwhile? While Aiden is seemingly perfect inside and out, Johnny is a realist. There's no way that man's peanut butter goes with his clumsy, nerdy jelly. If only he could convince his libido and the determined brick mason that he's not on the market, he could get back to his safe, solitary life. Aiden wants more than just being a pretty face and a night of fun after years of fumbling through encounters that never went deeper than the surface. When he meets Johnny, something behind the skittish photographer's snarky facade speaks to his wanton heart. There has to be a reason they keep crashing into each other in more ways than one. Maybe attraction isn't supposed to make sense and love, even less. An MM romcom about the ripple effect of broken trust and learning to love yourself before you can love another.Mostra libro
