Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -A brilliant, lost feminist classic that is equal parts domestic drama and international intrigue.Shirley and Coenraad s affair has been going on for decades, but her longing for him is as desperate as ever. She is a Toronto housewife; he works for an international organization known only as…the Agency. Their rendezvous take place in Tangier, in Hong Kong, in Rome and are arranged by an intricate code based on notes slipped into issues of National Geographic. He recognizes her by her costume: a respectable black dress and string of pearls; his appearance, however, is changeable. But something has happened, the code has been discovered, and Coenraad sends Shirley (who prefers to be known as Lola Montez ) to Toronto, the last place she wants to go. There the trail leads her through the sites of her impoverished immigrant childhood and sends her, finally, to her own house, where she discards her pearls and trades in her basic black for a dress of vibrant multicolored silk.Helen Weinzweig published her first novel when she was fifty-eight. Basic Black with Pearls, her second, won the Toronto Book Award and has since come to be recognized as a feminist landmark. Here Weinzweig imbues the formal inventiveness of the nouveau roman with psychological poignancy and surprising humor to tell a story of simultaneous dissolution and discovery. Englisch.

Condition: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Based on true events, this is the story of John Ruckles, a Boston businessman and widower, who explores a service offering brides-by-mail from Southeast Asia. He makes contact with Lulu Ming, a gunsmith from Laos. They enter into a significant emai…l correspondence, and Lulu and her young daughter, Hina, travel to Boston to visit. Later on Lulu and John marry, and Lulu and Hina move to Boston. John soon becomes extremely abusive and fearing for her own and Hina's safety, Lulu decides to file for divorce. Her divorce attorney tells her to dress conservatively - in basic black and pearls - when she goes to court. Using her skills and training, she makes a gun out of polymer plastic and plans to kill John. This true story culminates in court with Lulu's gun being fired at John.What follows is the intriguing unraveling of a twisted plot.
