Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Uk Paperback Edition. While hundreds of thousands of women a year discover that they have breast cancer and millions more are living with the aftermath and uncertainty of the disease, the circumstances of Gayle Feldman's diagnosis were almost uniquely poignant. When still a teenager, she had seen her own mother die tragically young of cancer. The experience devasted her family and coloured and shaped her entire life. She was forty years old and eight months pregnant when she discovered a lump in her left breast. There followed an artificially induced fifty-hour labour and delivery of a healthy son, Benjamin; two biopsies, and a mastectomy - all within two and a half weeks. You Don't Have To Be Your Mother movingly recounts Gayle's experience and remembers that of her mother, but it is also about family and friendship, taking in the generation of her grandmother - who also died young of cancer - and the steadfast support of a loving husband, father and sisters. It is certain to take its place as a classic of the burgeoning movement among women determined to conquer the medical and personal devestations of breast cancer and win back control of their bodies and lives. No one, man or woman, who reads this compelling story will be unmoved by its quiet heroism.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: very good. First Edition. First Printing. 256 pages. Short ink notation and pencil erasure on front endpaper. Signed by the author. While 180, 000 American women a year discover that they have breast cancer and millions more are living with the aftermath and uncertainty of the disease, the circumstances of Gayle Feldman's diagnosis were almost uniquely poignant. This is the moving memoir of a woman who discovered she had breast cancer when she was eight months pregnant--and the same age as her mother was when she died of breast cancer in her 40's. In a period of less than three weeks, Feldman (an editor at Publishers Weekly) had her baby's birth induced and her breast removed. The baby was healthy and the operation successful. A year later, she had her second breast removed as a prophylactic measure, to ward off the 50%-60% chance that the cancer would return.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITORS' CHOICE The "exhilarating" (The Boston Globe) story of the legendary Random House founder, whose seemingly charmed life at the apogee of the American Century afforded him a front-row seat to literary and cultural history in the making"[A] big, beautiful biography . . . There's a new Power Broker in town."The New York Times"Feldman depicts a lost world, at times a lost paradise, when New York, Hollywood and the literary life were at their most glamorous and privileged."The Washington PostAt midcentury, everyone knew Bennett Cerf: witty, beloved, middle-aged panelist on What's My Line whom TV brought into America's homes each week. But they didn't know that the handsome, driven, paradoxical young man of the 1920s had vowed to become a great publisher and, a decade later, was. By then, he'd signed Eugene O'Neill, Gertrude Stein, and William Faulkner, and had fought the landmark censorship case that gave Americans the freedom to read James Joyce's Ulysses.With his best friend and lifelong business partner Donald Klopfer, and other young Jewish entrepreneurs like the Knopfs and Simon & Schuster, Cerf remade the book business: what was published, and how. In 1925, he and Klopfer bought the Modern Library and turned it into an institution, then founded Random House, which eventually became a home to Truman Capote, Ralph Ellison, Ayn Rand, Dr. Seuss, Toni Morrison, James Michener, and many more.Even before TV, Cerf was a bestselling author and columnist as well as publisher; the show super-charged his celebrity, bringing famebut also criticism. A brilliant social networker and major influencer before such terms existed, he connected books to Broadway, TV, Hollywood, and politics. A fervent democratizer, he published "high," "low," and wide, and from the Roaring Twenties to the Swinging Sixties collected an incredible array of friends, from George Gershwin to Frank Sinatra, having a fabulous time along the way.Using interviews with more than two hundred individuals, deeply researched archival material, and letters from private collections not previously available, this book brings Bennett Cerf to vibrant life, drawing book lovers into his world, finally laying open the page on a quintessential American original.
