SUMMARY:Ben McNally Books and Brunch | In Her Voice
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to attend a special In Her Voice edition of our Books and Brunch series. \nWhen: \nSunday\, June 3\, 10:00 am \nWhere: \nKing Edward Hotel\, 37 King St E. \nBrunch is served in the Vanity Fair Ballroom on the second floor of the King Edward Hotel. \nTickets are $55.00 each (taxes included) and must be purchased in advance. \nTickets are non-refundable. \nPlease call us at 416.361.0032 with your credit card information to reserve tickets. \nOr\, purchase them through Eventbrite. \n\nOne Hundred Years of Struggle by Joan Sangster\nUBC Press \n\n \nThe achievement of the vote in 1918 is often celebrated as a triumphant moment in the onward\, upward advancement of Canadian women. Acclaimed historian Joan Sangster looks beyond the shiny rhetoric of anniversary celebrations and Heritage Minutes to show that the struggle for equality included gains and losses\, inclusions and exclusions\, depending on a woman’s race\, class\, and location within the nation. She travels back in time to tell a new\, more inclusive story for a new generation and exposes not only the fissures of inequality that cut deep into our country’s past but also their weaknesses in the face of resistance\, optimism\, and protest – an inspiring legacy that resonates to this day. \n\nLove and Ruin by Paula McLain\nDoubleday Canada \n\n \nThe internationally bestselling author of The Paris Wife returns to the timeless subject of Ernest Hemingway in this story of his passionate\, volatile third marriage to Martha Gellhorn\, an ambitious\, fiercely independent\, beautiful blonde who became one of the greatest war correspondents of the 20th century. \n\nThe Recovering by Leslie Jamison\nLittle\, Brown and Company \n\n \nWith its deeply personal and seamless blend of memoir\, cultural history\, literary criticism\, and reportage\, The Recovering turns our understanding of the traditional addiction narrative on its head\, demonstrating that the story of recovery can be every bit as electrifying as the train wreck itself. Leslie Jamison deftly excavates the stories we tell about addiction–both her own and others’–and examines what we want these stories to do and what happens when they fail us. All the while\, she offers a fascinating look at the larger history of the recovery movement\, and at the complicated bearing that race and class have on our understanding of who is criminal and who is ill. \n\nThe Showrunner by Kim Moritsugu\nDundurn \n\n\n \nRising-star showrunner Stacey McCreedy has one goal: to leave behind her nerd-girl origins and become a power player — like Ann Dalloni\, her former mentor and current producing partner. Ann\, meanwhile\, is feeling her age and losing her mind. But she’ll be damned if she cedes control of their hit primetime TV show to Stacey. After Ann hires Jenna\, a young actress hoping to restart her stalled career\, as an assistant\, the relationship between Ann and Stacey deteriorates into a blood feud. Soon\, Jenna must choose whom to support and whom to betray to achieve her own ends. And Stacey will find out if she possesses the killer instinct needed to stay on top. \n000000
