A Book of Secrets by Michael Holroyd Pdf

A Time Magazine Top 10 Nonfiction book of 2011 A Publishers Weekly Best Nonfiction title for 2011 On a hill above the Italian village of Ravello sits the Villa Cimbrone, a place of fantasy and make-believe. The characters that move through Michael Holroyd's new book are destined never to meet, yet the Villa Cimbrone unites them all. A Book of Secrets is a treasure trove of hidden lives, uncelebrated achievements, and family mysteries. With grace and tender imagination, Holroyd brings a company of unknown women into the light. From Alice Keppel, the mistress of both the second Lord Grimthorpe and the Prince of Wales; to Eve Fairfax, a muse of Auguste Rodin; to the novelist Violet Trefusis, the lover of Vita Sackville-West—these women are always on the periphery of the respectable world. Also on the margins is the elusive biographer, who on occasion turns an appraising eye upon himself as part of his investigations in the maze of biography. In A Book of Secrets, Holroyd gives voice to fragile human connections and the mystery of place.

A Daughter's Book of Secrets by Robin K. Johnson Pdf

A father should be the man by which all other men are measured in the eyes of his daughter. This book is designed to open up discussions between fathers and daughters on the cusp of becoming adults. Too often meaningful conversations between fathers and daughters break down and falter for lack of a focus on the simple things in life. Small conversations, which continually bolster the self-esteem and self-efficacy of the young woman leaving home, may create a space that will allow the relationship between the father and his daughter to remain intact after she has left the home. Robin K. Johnson's experiences with his seven daughters have given him insight into what leads to the disconnect between a father and daughter when she begins to step into womanhood, leaving the image of ''daddy's little girl'' behind. A Daughter's Book of Secrets contains vital information that a father should impart to his daughter. It also opens up areas in which some fathers fear to tread, but where they may meet their daughters as they enter into adulthood.
