Women go through various life stages, with each moment bringing a new set of challenges and opportunities. Yet we rarely speak openly about these, or share our knowledge and solutions with each other. We use euphemisms to describe periods rather than saying the word. We don't acknowledge leakages or admit that we don't know how to find our pelvic floor or even what it does. We buy trendy sports bras without thinking how they work for breast health or exercise performance. We see young women giving up exercise in their teens to the detriment of their health at an older age.

Stephen King once said that books are “a uniquely portable magic.” Here, Emma Smith takes listeners on a literary adventure that spans centuries and circles the globe to uncover the reasons behind our obsession with this captivating object. From disrupting the Western myth that the Gutenberg Press was the original printing project, to the decorative gift books that radicalized women to join the anti-slavery movement, to paperbacks being weaponized during World War II, to a book made entirely of cheese, Portable Magic explores how, when, and why books became so iconic.

A genius and prophet whose timeless works encapsulate the human condition like no other. A writer who surpassed his contemporaries in vision, originality, and literary mastery. A man who wrote like an angel, putting it all so much better than anyone else. Is this Shakespeare? Well, sort of. But it doesn't tell us the whole truth. So much of what we say about Shakespeare is either not true, or just not relevant.

For centuries past, and all across the world, there are words for a certain kind of woman. Words that raise our hackles, fire up our blood. Words that tell a story. In this blazing cauldron of a book, the boldest writers of our day take up these words and take up their pen, celebrating fifty years of Virago.

Plötzlich spürt Grayson wieder etwas - ein Gefühl, das ihn aus seiner Apathie katapultiert und ihm den Kopf verdreht.

[Contains explicit content] The Great Northwest isn't just Seattle and Portland.

Er braucht ein neues Image. Sie gibt ihm weit mehr als das. Maisie verschlingt lieber Bücher, anstatt sich mit echten Menschen zu unterhalten, sie trägt viel zu große Strickjacken, die mit saisonalen Früchten bestickt sind, und kann sich nicht daran erinnern, wann sie das letzte Mal geküsst wurde. Sie eckt an, wobei sie einfach nur in Ruhe gelassen werden will. Weil sie sonderbar ist, eben ein echter Nerd, setzt ihre Familie sie immer stärker unter Druck: Entweder sie wird endlich heiraten oder sie zwingen sie dazu. Adam St. James hingegen ist der König des Footballfeldes - charmant, cool.
