UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE in the Land of Perfect
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE In the Land of Perfect Bliss A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and Writing for the Performing Arts by Simona Suresh Supekar August 2013 Thesis Committee: Professor Andrew Winer, Co-Chairperson Professor Tod Goldberg, Co-Chairperson Professor Mark Haskell Smith Copyright by Simona Suresh Supekar 2013 The Thesis of Simona Suresh Supekar is approved: Committee Co-Chairperson Committee Co-Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgements I am indebted to the guidance of Mark Haskell Smith, whose relentless support and spot- on feedback throughout the writing process was crucial to getting this far. I also want to thank Tod Goldberg for accepting me into the program and for his very insightful comments on my work. The smart, thoughtful feedback from Mary Yukari Waters was also instrumental in getting my story where it needed to be. Thanks also to my many colleagues at UCR who provided very valuable comments on my work and whose work I too admire. I am so lucky to have had you as friends in this program, so much so that I copied verbatim the first half of this sentence from the sample acknowledgments page in the thesis review packet. Last, I want to thank my parents Suresh and Shaila Supekar who gave me the stories to tell and the desire to tell them by virtue of just being here, in America, as immigrants who left so much behind in India. And of course, none of my work would be possible without the love—upon which everything is built, really—from my partner Arturo Aguilar, who pushed me to follow my dream and has supported me in every way throughout this journey. -

The Case of Rihanna: Erotic Violence and Black Female Desire
Fleetwood_Fleetwood 8/15/2013 10:52 PM Page 419 Nicole R. Fleetwood The Case of Rihanna: Erotic Violence and Black Female Desire Note: This article was drafted prior to Rihanna and Chris Brown’s public reconciliation, though their rekindled romance supports many of the arguments outlined herein. Fig. 1: Cover of Esquire, November 2011 issue, U. S. Edition. Photograph by Russell James. he November 2011 issue of Esquire magazine declares Rihanna “the sexiest Twoman alive.” On the cover, Rihanna poses nude with one leg propped, blocking view of her breast and crotch. The entertainer stares out provocatively, with mouth slightly ajar. Seaweed clings to her glistening body. A small gun tattooed under her right arm directs attention to her partially revealed breast. Rihanna’s hands brace her body, and her nails dig into her skin. The feature article and accompanying photographs detail the hyperbolic hotness of the celebrity; Ross McCammon, the article’s author, acknowledges that the pop star’s presence renders him speechless and unable to keep his composure. Interwoven into anecdotes and narrative scenes explicating Rihanna’s desirability as a sexual subject are her statements of her sexual appetite and the pleasure that she finds in particular forms of sexual play that rehearse gendered power inequity and the titillation of pain. That Rihanna’s right arm is carefully positioned both to show the tattoo of the gun aimed at her breast, and that her fingers claw into her flesh, commingle sexual pleasure and pain, erotic desire and violence. Here and elsewhere, Rihanna employs her body as a stage for the exploration of modes of violence structured into hetero- sexual desire and practices. -

Debility And/Or Loss of Weight the Diagnostic Approach
Res Medica, May 1961, Volume II, Number 4 Page 1 of 7 Debility and/or Loss of Weight the Diagnostic Approach Charles W. Seward M.D., F.R.C.P.E. Abstract These last few decades have given us greatly increased precision of diagnosis and therapeutic power, and we, no longer merit Matthew Arnold's rebuke. These revolutionary changes have been produced as a result of a great spirit of free enquiry, a search for facts and their explanation. Such a search is dependent initially on the development of a working hypothesis, and this is just what a tentative diagnosis is. From this point our search is for facts uncoloured by accepted authority, popular opinion or personal prejudice. In medicine Galen of Pergamum was the "Master" for many centuries, and from 200 A.D. the dead hand of Galen's authority lay upon medicine for over 1300 years. The mighty Leonardo da Vinci first questioned Galen's views and in England in 1620 Francis Bacon in his "Novum Organum" urged men to abandon their four idols- accepted authority, popular opinion, legal bias and personal prejudice. Yet, despite Leonardo da Vinci and Bacon and even the revolutionary work of Harvey in 1628, it was not until the time of Lister (186o) that medicine ceased to be a traditional empirical art bound to the words of the Master and accepted authority. There are for us three kinds of facts, viz. symptoms, signs and the results of investigations, and upon these we base our diagnosis. It is because of the difficulty in setting down an accurate account of the first of these that medicine will be for ever an art. -

Provocations
SECTION ONE Provocations ONE Introduction “You cannot be serious!” Danya, a dietician, blurts out in the middle of the regular Wednesday morning treatment team meeting at Cedar Grove. Mirroring Danya’s incredulity, the rest of us look around at one another, trying to process what we had just heard. “I’m afraid I am serious,” affirms Dr. Casey, the clinic’s medical director, speaking up over the mutterings and exclamations of the staff. “I know it sounds crazy—I know! But we have looked at this from every angle. This really is the best option for Hope and for the family.” “Never have I been asked to put an anorexic on a diet to make her lose weight,” Danya grumbles under her breath. Then, more loudly: “Hope is nowhere near her goal weight. It’s going to undo all the progress she’s made over the past two weeks. We’ve just finally gotten her up to where she needs to be calorie-wise with her add-ons! She has worked so hard. Now we’re going to tell her, ‘Guess what? Never mind! Time to start restricting again!’ ” “It’s an anorexic’s dream,” quips Joan, the assistant medical director. “I think she’ll view it as punitive,” observes Brenda, Hope’s therapist. “Like, ‘You’re bad for gaining weight, and so now we’re going to take food away.’ ” “That’s a real danger,” agreed Dr. Casey. “This could totally fuel the anorexia and make everything worse. But really, it’s the only chance she’s got.” Under what conditions would putting an anorexic client on a diet inside an eating disorders clinic become the “only chance she’s got”? 3 HOPE Hope was thirteen years old when she entered treatment at Cedar Grove, one of the youngest clients at the clinic.
