Ida. En suicide blonde, en Dulcinea, en Garbo - en Gertrude Stein. Ida är en skönhetsdrottning som flytt sitt uppdrag. Ida vill - alltid - någon annanstans. Dessutom är Ida mycket upptagen. Med att vila. Och med att gifta sig, om och om igen.Gertrude Stein skrev Ida under upptakten till andra världskriget. Romanen publicerades av förlaget Random House 1941, medan Stein befann sig i Vichy-regimens Frankrike. En av den engelskspråkiga modernismens klassiker, här i översättning av författaren Johanna Mo.GERTRUDE STEIN [1874-1946] var en av 1900-talets stora litterära innovatörer. Hon var en av de centrala gestalterna i den avantgardistiska konst- och litteraturvärlden i tjugotalets Paris, där hennes och partnern Alice B. Toklas hem blev en knytpunkt för exilamerikaner och europeiska konstnärer och författare. Med Alice B. Toklas självbiografi och Ida presenterar Modernista nya, efterlängtade utgåvor av två av Gertrude Steins största och mest lästa verk.

"Ida - Isoäitini tarina" pohjaa Marketta Vaaran omiin ja lähisuvun muistoihin.Vaara vie lukijansa kyläyhteisöön Valkealaan, Pohjois-Kymenlaaksoon. Maatalon tyttärenä Ida joutuu jo pienestä pitäen osallistumaan peltotöihin, lypsämään ja hoitamaan karjaa. Idan työntäyteinen mutta turvattu arki muuttuu, kun hänestä 17- vuotiaana tulee Oskarin vaimo ja Vanhalan emäntä. Nuorenparin onni on suurta, pettymykset sitäkin suurempia. Levoton ja seikkailunhaluinen Oskari karkaa siirtolaiseksi Amerikkaan. Oskarin kirjeet kertovat ikävästä, mutta kotiinpaluu jää haaveeksi. Miten nuori Ida selviää kahden pienen lapsen kanssa isännättömässä talossa, jota hän ei lain mukaan voi edes omistaa?Marketta Vaaran kirja piirtää kuvan naisesta, joka eli haasteiden täyttämän elämän, mutta ei koskaan taipunut vastoinkäymisten edessä. Ida oli selviytyjä, joka koki elävänsä hyvää elämää aikana, jona naisen rooli ja mahdollisuudet olivat hyvin rajoitetut. Teos on kunnianosoitus vaatimattomille, sitkeille ja ahkerille aikansa naisille.

"An important and inspiring book." (School Library Journal starred review)Ida B. Wells worked bravely as an activist, educator, writer, journalist, suffragette, and pioneering voice against the horror of lynching. An inspiration for generations of civil rights crusaders, Wells's own words are used throughout this picture book biography to introduce young readers to this leader.Award-winning, New York Times bestselling author Walter Dean Myers tells the story of this legendary figure, his powerful words blending harmoniously with the historically detailed watercolor paintings of illustrator Bonnie Christensen. As Booklist noted: "Myers' masterful text is well matched by Christensen's somber watercolor illustrations: neither soft-pedals the injustice and cruelty to African Americans."Brightly added: "Myers's unflinching tale highlights Wells's courage and persistence by using her own words and writings throughout, and sharing the many moments of her life when she refused to accept discrimination and raised her voice for justice"

A stunning picture book biography about the early life of Ida B. Wells, her incredible work as a suffragist, and her critical role in the Women's March of 1913.Ida B. Wells grew up during a time when women did not have the right to vote. But Ida aspired for equality; she had learned from her parents to forge a life through hope and bravery, so she worked tirelessly to fight for an America that was fair to everyone regardless of race and gender. Her courageous activism made her one of the most influential civil rights leaders in American history. Here is Ida's story with a specific spotlight on her fearless role in the Women's March of 1913.
For fans of Bridgerton and The Gilded Age comes a sweeping historical novel that tells the story of Ida B. Wells from her teen years and early romances up through her becoming a civil rights crusader without peer.Before she became a warrior, Ida B. Wells was an incomparable flirt with a quick wit and a dream of becoming a renowned writer. The first child of newly freed parents who thrived in a community that pulsated with hope and possibility after the Civil War, Ida had a big heart, big ambitions, and even bigger questions: How to be a good big sister when her beloved parents perish in a yellow fever epidemic? How to launch her career as a teacher? How to make and keep friends in a society that seems to have no place for a woman who speaks her own mind? And - always top of mind for Ida - how to find a love that will let her be the woman she dreams of becoming?Ahead of her time by decades, Ida B. Wells pioneered the field of investigative journalism with her powerful reporting on violence against African Americans. Her name became synonymous with courage and an unflinching demand for racial and gender equality. But there were so many facets to Ida Bell and critically acclaimed writer Veronica Chamber unspools her full and colorful life as Ida comes of age in the rapidly changing South, filled with lavish society dances and parties, swoon-worthy gentleman callers, and a world ripe for the taking.
