Описание:
Colette, prodded by her first husband, Willy, began her writing career with Claudine at School, which catapulted the young author into instant, sensational success. Among the most autobiographical of Colette's works, these four novels are dominated by the child-woman Claudine, whose strength, humor, and zest for living make her seem almost a symbol for the life force.
Janet Flanner described these books as amazing writing on the almost girlish search for the absolute of happiness in physical love . . . recorded by a literary brain always wide awake on the pillow.

Описание: Alife-threatening flood leads to a frivolous lawsuit - a suit based on unfounded, meritless claims. This simple injustice, which should have been quickly resolved, turns into a litigation nightmare that would go on for years. But the victim, an elderly widow, takes on the lawyers in court, acting as her own attorney - and wins From the day of the devastating flash flood to the final court judgment and the zinger of a surprise ending, the story ranges from thrilling to heart-breaking to hilariously funny The author's hope is that by sharing her experiences, the readers will benefit from them and become more aware of the disastrous effects of frivolous lawsuits - legal claims without merit - and consider possible ways to counter or defend against them. That aside, the book is a page-turner to rival the most compelling thriller. It is not a novel, a fictitious work of creative writing. No, it is incredible but true, and truth is stranger than fiction - and often a whole lot funnier

Описание: This is a critical examination of the ways that aging and old age are represented and given meaning in popular film. Arguing that the narratives, discourses, and philosophical positions that underlie filmic depictions of growing older are historical and open to revision, the author evaluates how a given film both portrays aging or older characters and tells the larger story of aging itself.

Описание:
Now finally available in English, this biography of Margarethe Csonka-Trautenegg (1900-1999) offers a fully-rounded picture of a willful and psychologically complex aesthete. As Freud's never-before-identified "case of female homosexuality", her analysis continues to spark often heated psychoanalytic debate. Margarethe's ("Sidonie's") experiences spanned the twentieth century.
Jewish by birth, she fled upper-class life in Vienna for Cuba to escape the Nazis, only to return post-war to a "leaden" city and relative poverty. Fleeing again, she took various jobs abroad, and returned permanently only in old age. The interviews and taped oral histories that form the basis of this book were produced during the final five of her years. Well-researched historical background information supplements the story of Margarethe's journey across time and continents.
