  • A NEW DIRECTION for CHICK LIT by Rachel
    ABSTRACT CONSCIOUSNESS-RAISING: A NEW DIRECTION FOR CHICK LIT by Rachel R. Rode Schaefer Focusing on novels published outside of the popular market, this thesis seeks to draw attention to work being published under the label of chick lit that subverts standard chick lit genre conventions. While much work has been and is being done that concentrates on popular market chick lit, such as Helen Fielding’s Bridget Jones’s Diary (1996) and Candace Bushnell’s Sex and the City (1996), only cursory attention is being given to transnational, minority, and religious chick lit. This thesis considers chick lit within the larger history of women’s writing in order to contextualize the genre. Since chick lit has been connected to both feminism and post-feminism in its origins, consideration of this genre as a feminist genre focuses attention on how chick lit functions as a consciousness-raising genre. CONSCIOUSNESS-RAISING: A NEW DIRECTION FOR CHICK LIT A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University In partial fulfillment of Master of Arts Department of English by Rachel R.

  • This Reading Group Guide for Primates of Park Avenue Includes An
    This reading group guide for Primates of Park Avenue includes an introduction, discussion questions, ideas for enhancing your book club, and a Q&A with Wednesday Martin. The suggested questions are intended to help your reading group find new and interesting angles and topics for your discussion. We hope that these ideas will enrich your conversation and increase your enjoyment of the book. Introduction Wednesday Martin’s new memoir, Primates of Park Avenue, is an inside look at the unexpectedly stressful and anxious lives of Manhattan’s most elite set: Upper East Side mommies. The book follows Wednesday on her journey to join the “it” crew in Manhattan, and no detail—no matter how trivial or painful—is left out. We read about the feelings of exclusion and unhappiness Wednesday experiences as she learns to navigate the sometimes-cruel streets and female “friendships” west of Lexington Avenue. We hear about her epic quest to own an Hermès Birkin bag and about the cutthroat nature of preschool applications on the Upper East Side. Through it all, Wednesday straddles the line between subjective insider desperate to find a place for herself and her son and academically detached outsider using her background in anthropology and primatology to help make sense of her world, one she realizes might seem silly and unsympathetic from the outside. Wednesday is both participant in and observer of the rituals of motherhood in Manhattan’s richest neighborhood. Discussion Questions 1. In her introduction, author Wednesday Martin asks herself “who were they really, these glamorous, stylishly turned out women with sophisticated babies?” (2).

  • January 2017
    In This Issue: January Events | AuthorSpeak | Book Discussions | Business Workshops Children's Programs | Concerts | Healthy Minds/Healthy Bodies | Weekly Programs January 2017 Greetings! It's 2017, and I just want to say one word to you, just one word. Are you listening? AUDIOBOOKS If your New Year's resolutions include more (exercise, reading) or less (road rage, sleeplessness), put AUDIOBOOKS at the top of that list. You won't feel like you're on a treadmill when you are engrossed in a mystery. Being stuck in traffic isn't so bad when you are catching up on your reading. When you can't sleep, stop thinking about whatever it is that's keeping you awake. Close your eyes, plug in your earphones and put the AUDIOBOOK on sleep timer. You don't have to pay, not even overdue fines, or even come into the library. You just have to have a Norwalk library card. If you don't have one, but live, work or go to school in Norwalk, Go online and get one! (Actually, that should be New Year's resolution #1). We have three databases from which you can choose your first audiobook, and that is not a free trial; they are always free. Be sure to download the books through their apps so you can listen wherever you are. Hoopla Enter your email; scroll down to Norwalk Public Library (CT); enter your library card number; download the app. Hoopla titles are all available all the time.

  • Les Primates De Park Avenue
    LE LIVRE Wednesday Martin débarque de son Midwest natal dans l’Upper East Side, le quartier le plus huppé de Manhattan, avec son mari et ses deux enfants. Le rêve se transforme rapidement en cauchemar. Wednesday est sur le territoire des primates les plus riches de la planète. Une enclave hostile peuplée de femmes au foyer surdiplômées, glamour, mariées à des patrons de hedge funds et totalement dévouées à la réussite de leur progéniture. Armée d’un calepin et d’un crayon, Wednesday Martin consigne, à la manière de la célèbre primatologue Jane Goodall, les rites, les mœurs, les contradictions et les peurs de ces mères richissimes en quête obsessionnelle de perfection. http://www.editions-globe.com/les-primates-de-park-avenue L’AUTEUR Wednesday Martin est née et a grandi dans le Michigan. Anthropologue, elle écrit pour Harper’s Bazaar, le Huffington Post et le New York Times – dans lequel elle a fait polémique en révélant l’existence du « bonus d’épouse ». http://www.editions-globe.com/martin-wednesday Wednesday Martin Les Primates de Park Avenue Traduit de l’anglais (États-Unis) par Morgane Saysana 11, rue de Sèvres, Paris 6e Pour Blossom et Daphne. Et pour toutes les mamans. INTRODUCTION armi les premiers cadeaux que j’ai reçus à la naissance de P mon fils aîné figurait un album jeunesse offert par une amie de longue date, qui a deux enfants et habite toujours la petite ville du Michigan où nous avons grandi, elle et moi. Tout en souhaitant la bienvenue à mon fils, ce cadeau souli- gnait le fait que je résidais désormais à New York, un endroit très différent de celui où nous avions passé notre enfance.
