Paperback. Etat : Very Good. BEATS ME is quintessentially a love story and a fascinating account os some of the most vibrant, stormy and controversial times in American literature. Combining literary history with very personal drama I tell the tale of my husband, Paul Carroll, and his exploits with the censorship of his little magazine, Big Table, by The University of Chicago and the attempted censorship the U. S. Post Office in 1959. His stories, told to me nightly, progress like Scheherazade's through the course of the last year of his life when he learns he is dying from cancer. His wounded friendship with Allen Ginsberg evolves over the course of three decades. Allen is pivotal in the first publishing of excerpts of Naked Lunch in Big Table but dictatorial in his directions of how Paul should write his poetry. Paul's poetry evolves over thirty years from the highly structured Sicilian Sestet of 'Winter Scene' published in 1958 in the New Yorker to the immediacy of late lines as: 'We walk inside the heart of God all day.' The history continues in 1968 with Paul's partnership with Follett Publishing Co. to produce Big Table Books, including 'The Poem In Its Skin' and 'Young American Poets' which Kenneth Clarke, when director of the of Chicago Poetry of Chicago founded by Paul, called 'the bible'. A great friendship starts, ion 1959, with James Dickey who described his visits with Paul in Chicago as I do sincerely believe that was the happiest I ever was in my life. The happiest.' Dickey's and Paul's friendship involved a mutual appreciation and respect for each other's poetry and his last letter, written after Paul's death said to me 'I hope you will continue to stay in touch so that we may be with Paul on both sides of the shadow line. One can do such things, as you know.' Well, I didn't know that at the time of his letter but I was to find out he was correct. Communication can continue after a loved one's death.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. The war on body image is fought behind closed doors, in dressing rooms, closets, bathrooms, and in the darkest corners of our society. It is a war that has claimed many lives and will continue to do so as it rages, a war rooted in self-hatred and self-loathing, born out of the media and pop-culture's idea of what it means to be beautiful. Beauty pageants, swimsuit calendars, thigh gap, for longer than we care to admit, Americans have allowed our children- girls and boys- to participate in a culture where they are rewarded for how they look rather than their strong minds and hearts. Thankfully, the body positivity revolution has begun. _________________ In My Body, My Words, we take an unforgettable walk with writers through an array of physical temples, from abuse to discovery to triumph. We see our own spirit in these stories of glory and pain and uncover ultimate truths that illuminate our outer and inner selves. Morowa Yejid , author of Time of the Locust: A Novel _____________________________ My Body, My Words is an honest, heartfelt collection of fearless essays that is not to be missed. Chlo McFeters, director of You Look a Lot Like Me and author of The Ally Within _____________________________ A gorgeous and powerful anthology exploring all things body image, My Body, My Words will take you on a journey through experiences of fear, hate, love, and evolution that writers of all ages, body types and backgrounds experience with their bodies, while calling for a self-love and a body positivity revolution. E. Ce. Miller, Bustle Magazine _______________________________ My Body, My Words: A Collection of Bodies is not just another essay anthology. It brings together a diverse selection of voices for important conversations around body image and identity. Some are quick but powerful reads that pack a punch; others are longer meditations that chip away at the walls we put up around such delicate topics. All will resonate with you and stay with you for a long time to come. Elizabeth Enteman, Hello Giggles _____________________ My Body, My Words is a groundbreaking essay collection edited by poet Loren Kleinman and author of the memoir Fat Girl, Skinny Amye Barrese Archer. It features poignant narratives of sexual assault, eating disorders, miscarriage and nude modeling from a diverse group of men and women, including New York Times best-selling authors Beverly Donofrio and Susan Shapiro. My Body, My Words explores the origins of body image ideals, the dangers of the medical profession's insensitivities and learning to navigate the connection between inner and outer selves. Sara-Kate Astrove, SheKnows _______________________ Editors Amye Archer and Loren Kleinman put together a collection of body-centric essays that is so much greater than the sum of its (beautiful) parts. The anthology My Body, My Words is rich with stories of gender transformation, dressing-room breakdowns, yo-yo diets, judgmental grandmas, and falling in love. I loved Megan Galbraith's sexy tale of a summer camp counselor skinny dip. Plus, 50 percent of the book sale proceeds go to the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media.
