Book Description
'Searing and generous ... a blazing beacon' - Donal Ryan 'Every man and woman should read this' - Sabina Higgins 'Written with honesty, power and insight' - Róisín Ingle 'Immensely valuable ... raw and vulnerable' - Irish Times 'A sobering ... timely call to arms' - Irish Independent How does a young woman find herself involved in prostitution in Ireland? In an era that asks us to take a 'sex-positive' view of it, how does this translate in reality? And why aren't we talking about it more? Any Girl is one woman's first-hand account of Ireland's sex trade. An experience of sexual exploitation as a teenager carved a direct path for Mia into the world of prostitution, a hidden part of her life during her college years in Dublin. There, in a system of casual entitlement, she met with abuse, violence and degradation, finally leaving it behind at age 24. Over a decade on, now a psychotherapist specialising in sexual trauma, Mia shares her remarkable story with passion and a determination to challenge dominant perceptions of prostitution today. Any Girl amounts to a radical act of truthtelling that shines with courage and hope. 'A powerful and important book' - Ivana Bacik, T.D. 'Will open your eyes and your heart to a hidden world that most choose to ignore' Jarlath Regan

A Girl is a Half-Formed Thing

Author: Eimear McBride
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1476789029
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 240

Book Description
Taking the literary world by storm, Eimear McBride’s internationally praised debut is one of the most acclaimed novels in recent years; it is “subversive, passionate, and darkly alchemical. Read it and be changed” (Eleanor Catton). Eimear McBride’s debut tells, with astonishing insight and in riveting detail, the story of a young woman’s relationship with her brother, the long shadow cast by his childhood brain tumour, and her harrowing sexual awakening. Not so much a stream-of-consciousness, as an unconscious railing against a life that makes little sense, and a shocking and intimate insight into the thoughts, feelings and chaotic sexuality of a vulnerable and isolated protagonist, A Girl Is a Half-formed Thing plunges inside its narrator’s head, exposing her world firsthand. This isn’t always comfortable—but it is always a revelation. Touching on everything from family violence to religion to addiction, and the personal struggle to remain intact in times of intense trauma, McBride writes with singular intensity, acute sensitivity, and mordant wit. A Girl Is a Half-formed Thing is moving, funny, and alarming. It is a book you will never forget.

Book Description
Margaret Sanger's 'What Every Girl Should Know' is a groundbreaking piece of literature that delves into the taboo subject of women's sexual education. This book, written in a straightforward and informative style, provides important information for young girls regarding their bodies, sexuality, and reproductive health. Set in the early 20th century, Sanger's work is considered revolutionary for its time, challenging societal norms and advocating for women's rights to access accurate sexual education. Through personal anecdotes and medical facts, 'What Every Girl Should Know' brings awareness to the importance of informed decision-making and autonomy over one's body. Margaret Sanger's own experiences as a nurse and birth control activist undoubtedly influenced the writing of this book. Her commitment to women's health and reproductive rights is evident throughout the pages, making this a must-read for anyone interested in the history of feminism and sexual education. I highly recommend 'What Every Girl Should Know' to readers seeking a deeper understanding of the struggles and triumphs of women's rights activism.

How to Date Any Girl

Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 26

Book Description
What do women want? This is a question that has baffled men since the beginning of time and we men are no closer to understanding women than we were when we huddled around an open fire every night and lived in caves. Why are women so hard to decipher? Simply because we try to understand them from a man's point of view without understanding the basic premise that women think differently from men. In fact, women have completely different wiring than men and we will never be able to understand them on a logical level, which is how we approach most everything. Think about it. What do we do when we get together for some fun? We definitely aren't sharing feelings. No, we drink, talk about sports and other apparently innocuous subjects which in fact are a hidden form of competition. You know, the mine's bigger than yours syndrome. However, for guys this is absolutely natural. On the other hand, when women get together they share their feelings, they watch chick flicks and talk about the latest diet or article in Cosmo. You see, women are mainly driven by emotion. Just as we need logic and structure in our lives, they need emotion. Men thrive on competition, adrenaline, power, domination, while women couldn't really care less about them.
