The Chronology of Water
ISBN: 9781786893307 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The Chronology of Water traces the effect of extreme grief on a young woman's developing sexuality. With candour and humility, Yuknavitch chronicles her early experiences as a survivor of childhood abuse at the hands of her father and then the birth, just out of her teens, of a stillborn child. From the shattered parts she weaves a narrative shining with the healing power of art, beauty, writing, sibling love, romantic attachment - to men and women - and swimming. It is a journey of addiction, self-destruction, and ultimately survival that finally comes together in the shape of love.

ISBN: 9788381914277 / Polski / twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. „Wszystko, co przechowuję w pamięci, wiruje wokół wydarzeń w moim życiu jak woda” – pisze Lidia Yuknavitch, czyniąc z tego żywiołu centralny punkt opowieści o swoim życiu. A nie było ono łatwe. Bo czy są słowa, które mogą oddać ból matki po utracie dziecka? Czy da się opisać dorastanie w domu przepełnionym gniewem ojca? I jak przedstawić lata autodestrukcji napędzanej alkoholem, narkotykami i seksem?
Yuknavitch bez lęku i zahamowań prowadzi nas przez własne doświadczenia, nie ukrywając egzystencjalnych kryzysów i nie uciekając od intelektualnych... „Wszystko, co przechowuję w pamięci, wiruje wokół wydarzeń w moim życiu jak woda” – pisze Lidia Yuknavitch, czyniąc z tego żywiołu cent...

The Chronology of Water: A Memoir
ISBN: 9780979018831 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is not your mother s memoir. In The Chronology of Water, Lidia Yuknavitch expertly moves the reader through issues of gender, sexuality, violence, and the family from the point of view of a lifelong swimmer turned artist. In writing that explores the nature of memoir itself, her story traces the effect of extreme grief on a young woman s developing sexuality that some define as untraditional because of her attraction to both men and women. Her emergence as a writer evolves at the same time and takes the narrator on a journey of addiction, self-destruction, and ultimately survival...

At the start of eighth grade, Peter Selgin fell in love with the young teacher who'd arrived from Oxford in Frye boots, with long hair, and a passion for his students that was intense and unorthodox. The son of an emotionally remote inventor, Peter was also a twin with a burning need to feel unique. The teacher supplied that need. They spent hours in the teacher's cottage, discussing books, playing chess, drinking tea, and wrestling. They were inseparable, until the teacher "resigned." Over the next decade they met occasionally and corresponded constantly, their last meeting a...

Lidia Yuknavitchs Geschichten sind gewagt, provozierend und aufrührerisch. In »Cosmos« baut der Hausmeister eines Planetariums Städte aus Müll, den Teenager hinterlassen.

The Misfit's Manifesto
ISBN: 9781501120060 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A self-defined misfit makes a powerful case for not fitting in--for recognizing the beauty, and difficulty, in forging an original path. A misfit is a person who missed fitting in, a person who fits in badly, or this: a person who is poorly adapted to new situations and environments. It's a shameful word, a word no one typically tries to own. Until now. Lidia Yuknavitch is a proud misfit. That wasn't always the case. It took Lidia a long time to not simply accept, but appreciate, her misfit status. Having flunked out of college twice (and maybe even a third time that she's not going...
