Sherri mène sa vie au jour le jour, au rythme de ses rencontres, au milieu des vapeurs d'alcool et de l'excitation des hommes, dans les boîtes où elle fait du strip-tease. Mais, à 36 ans, elle est bien décidée à " s'extirper de la pénombre des bars et à conquérir la lumière du jour ". La vie l'oblige brutalement à tourner la page : elle vient de tuer son amant et, même si elle était soûle, même si le type était une brute, il vaut mieux se faire oublier, lorsqu'elle tombe en arrêt devant le " Miami Purity ", un pressing qui recherche une employée, Sherri se dit que c'est un clin d'œil du destin. En franchissant le seuil du magasin, elle ne sait pas encore qu'elle va plonger dans un univers de folie, de perversité et de cruauté, dans la chaleur étouffante, le tintamarre des machines et l'odeur écoeurante des solvants, la vie de Sherri va prendre un tour franchement noir ...

Grabbed by Richard Blanco,Caridad Moro,Nikki Moustaki,Elisa Albo Pdf
A gender-inclusive anthology of poetry and prose that addresses the physical and psychological act of being “grabbed,” or in any way assaulted. The #MeToo movement, the infamous Access Hollywood tape, and the depraved and hypocritical actions of celebrities, politicians, CEOs, and other powerful people have caused people all over the nation to speak out in outrage, to express allegiance for the victims of these assaults, and to raise their voices against a culture that has allowed this behavior to continue for too long. The editors asked writers and poets to add to the conversation about what being “grabbed” means to them in their own experience or in whatever way the word “grabbed” inspired them. What they received are often searing, heart-rending works, ranging in topic from sexual misconduct to racial injustice, from an unwanted caress to rape, expressed in powerful, beautifully crafted prose and poetry. The writers represented here, some very well known, such as Rita Dove, Jericho Brown, Eileen Miles, Ana Menendez and Sapphire, as well as some newer voices not yet fully discovered, have mined their collective experiences to reveal their most vulnerable moments, and in some cases, to narrate moments that they have had previously been unwilling or unable to speak of. What results is a collection of emotional, hard-hitting pieces that speak to the aftermath of violation—whether mental, emotional, or physical.
