They Always Leave: Stories
ISBN: 9780615815770 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. If Bukowski and Flannery O'Connor would have had a child and read it only Raymond Carver for his bedtime stories, then this collection would have been the result. Dark and relevant to this detached generation, They Always Leave shows us the inevitability of everyone we know leaving us in some manner and the tragic comedy of human actions that comes along with it. In the second part of this collection Roof Alexander writes of thieves that can't be put in jail, of the ones who steal pride, hearts, beauty, and reality. These stories evoke the delusions of love, the beauty of destruction, the...

Looks at female comic secondary characters who, though never on center stage, play an indispensable role in enriching and complicating the course of the narrative.

ISBN: 9780615693965 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "We all shared a feeling of hunger, empty bellies, bottomless appetites that when filled, kept us up at night. When we spoke we shouted, all our voices together, a chorus of pleas and protests, rooftop dreams, voices carrying from building to building, no sky scrapers to block them, we all shared a voice, devouring the ears that accepted it, that opened to us. We would be heard. We would dizzily take in those sunrise nights and talk about what it would be like to be heard." To Be Heard is a recollection of a very recent lost time and place, depicting a transitional year in the lives of four...

Talking Drama
ISBN: 9781443813303 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 195 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The essays in Talking Drama ask what the relation is between drama and its critics. In so far as we conceive of drama and theatre as arising from and providing some sense of social ritual and comment, drama is itself a critical genre, showing up the foibles and problems of human existence as well as the general hubris and errors of society. Plays both constitute criticism--of society, of ideas, of other plays--and deploy such self-critical gambits as plays within plays, characters who watch other characters, characters feigning roles and personalities, and even the overt inclusion of...

The Present Immortality
ISBN: 9780692504000 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It's the summer of 1999, right before the innovation revolution, right before technology surged past romanticism. Moll and Ecc have given away all of their possessions and set off on a journey without destination, trading in progression for freedom in hopes of capturing that one singular moment that gives validation to life, that gives silent answers where answers didn't seem possible before. From the the hills of San Francisco, to the small desert gambling towns of Nevada, to revisiting of old haunts in Boulder and New Orleans, and across all the roads that lead from West to East, the two...

Reproductions of Reproduction
ISBN: 9780415912433 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Reproductions of Reproduction is about the loss of the paternal metaphor and how the ensuing scramble to relocate it has set off a series of representational crises. Examining the sudden popularity of such figures as cyborgs, bodybuilders, and vampires; shifts in legislation about abortion, paternity and copyright; the transition to a digital-based society; the emergence of lesbian and gay studies; the growing infatuation with hyper-realistic patterns in television, this book argues that each of these manifestations represents an attempt to resituate...

The Poetics of DNA
ISBN: 9780816649976 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How has DNA come to be seen as a cosmic truth, representative of all life, potential for all cures, repository for all identity, and end to all stories? In The Poetics of DNA, Judith Roof examines the rise of this powerful symbol and the implications of its ascendancy for the ways we think--about ourselves, about one another, and about the universe.
Descriptions of DNA, Roof argues, have distorted ideas and transformed nucleic acid into the answer to all questions of life. This hyperbolized notion of DNA, inevitably confused or conflated with the "gene," has become a...

What Gender Is, What Gender Does
ISBN: 9780816698578 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What Gender Is, What Gender Does provides a forceful new paradigm for considering genders. With depth and insight, Judith Roof argues that genders are much more than binary. And they are constantly morphing: they are conscious and unconscious, simultaneously conventional and idiosyncratic. At any moment, more than one gender dynamic is at work in any individual. Roof's interpretation of genders isn't content with either biological duality or endlessly open performativity, and what results is a nuanced and surprising representation of gender--an account that captures the...

A Lure of Knowledge: Lesbian Sexuality and Theory
ISBN: 9780231074872 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 285 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Lesbianism in literature has been dealt with rather indirectly in the past. Editors have led readers to the "artistry" of a work containing lesbianism, emphasizing instead the literary history and historical context of the work rather than the representations of lesbianism. The editor for Colette's The Pure and the Impure, for instance, affirms that Colette has a knowledge of a "strange sisterhood," but assures readers she has never strayed from the "normal." In the groundbreaking A Lure of Knowledge, Judith Roof demonstrates that representations of lesbian sexuality...
