Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. i hesitate to give 5 stars because that's just not something i usually do, but i can't think of anything wrong with this book. nothing that fell flat, not one essay that didn't live up to the rest, no mistakes, nothing missing. not even a typo. and it's not like there just "wasn't something missing"; it's also full. these essays are so well done. the language, the content, the lyricism, the overarching story. this book is fantastic. i wouldn't change a thing about it. i could pull a quote or two from each essay, minimum, so instead will just note that "Can You Hear Me In That Closet You're In" is probably my favorite essay, although it's hard to say for sure since all of them are so good. it was like i was at a poetry reading, reading this book - after every essay i made that appreciative sigh, because each of these essays does just exactly what it needs to do, and flawlessly. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

"Kate Carroll de Gutes invites readers to become collaborators in essays about issues we all face: growing up, identity, love, loss, and sometimes, the quest for the perfect fashion accessory. With wit matched by self-compassion and empathy, the essays offer a lesson on the inevitable journey back to the places where we begin."-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Her bold approach has encouraged me to be more courageous in my own writing, and that is a tremendous gift for one writer to hand another.
I did wish for a table of contents, which would have aided me as I hunted for the titles of the essays I loved best, which include the wonderfully named "Sir Ma'am Sir:Gender Fragments" and "Can You Hear Me in That Closet You're In?" and "Yellow Sorrow". And the brief pieces with a focus on clothing did little for me. But those are minor quibbles. Overall, highly recommended! ( )
