Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - At 17, Zoe Hansen ran from London to New York City. It was the flaming height of the 1980s, and Manhattan was a wildly fantastic world for this young British girl. After talking her way into a job at MTV she plunged into the downtown scene - at one point cutting Andy Warhols 'hair' (actually a wig, which he insisted on wearing while she snipped) Soon enough the dark side called, again, and she traded hair for heroin. Struggling to support her lifestyle, and habit, she found employment as a sex worker. In vivid detail, Going Down in Gotham, recounts her sometimes harrowing, sometimes hilarious, never less than fascinating journey from streetwalker to escort, dominatrix and masseuse, to madam of five brothels. Along the way, we meet a rogue's gallery of characters, reliving every close call and crazed situation in a voice as insightful and soulful as it is unsparing and irresistible. Where she ended up may be the most remarkable detail of all.Going Down in Gotham marks the arrival of a new Voice in Literature. The miracle is she survived to write it.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When LOVE Comes on Four Legs is the first in a planned series of four children's books introducing Jethro, the tuxedo cat. Children (and grown-ups) of all ages need to know the kind of love Jethro facilitates every day. Come along for the ride.When LOVE Comes on Four Legs is Anthony Gurley's attempt to convey how LOVE can arrive when unexpected and unrecognized. Jethro's story is the author's invitation to open the reader's heart and mind (young and old alike) to the wonders that abound when one is open to experiencing this kind of love. Neither Grandpa (Pappy) nor that tiny furball that appeared under the front porch steps after a hurricane had any way of knowing what was in store. The kitten was all alone and afraid, and Pappy never wanted a cat.But that five-week-old furball miraculously, and with a never-ending purring motor, tiptoed his way into Pappy's heart.Today, it is hard to say who rescued whom. Jethro came onto the scene just as Pappy was writing a memoir that was published in January 2024. That work, Deadly Dilemma. A Memoir dealt with fundamental questions about life, its opportunities, and challenges. Little did Pappy know when he started writing that epistle that an unexpected and unwanted pound and a half furball would become his beast friend, his best buddy, and yes, a valued teacher. LOVE does arrive in mysterious ways sometimes, even on four legs. Hansen, Zoë (illustrator).…
