Marilyn Coffey in her libidinous book PRICKSONGS recreates her youthful freedom from sexual taboos. Her steamy poems are as crazy, diverse, risque, and turbulent as The Sixties when she wrote them.he was slight ofbuild and/ liked/ tohave his ear bittenMake Love, Not War advised the slogan, and she did.'memberwhen you strummed melike a bass violin the bath tub?Some funny, some passionate, some provocative, Coffey's poems will sweep you back to a decadewhen gaudily painted Flower Power buses roamed the streets when mini skirts, bell-bottoms, and love beads adorned bodies when The Pill and sexual liberation were new.Named after her Pushcart Prize winning poem, Pricksongs is Coffey's second poetry book. She has also published a biography, Mail-Order Kid; an essay collection, Great Plains Patchwork; and Marcella, the first novel written in English that used masturbation as part of its main theme. Coffey's work has been read in Canada, England, Australia, Denmark, Japan and India.
This booklet deals with the often sticky subject of masturbation -- an inborn instinct that received such a bad press in the 18th century that many people are still afraid to discuss it, let alone admit to it.Written by Marilyn Coffey whose MARCELLA was the first novel in English to explore female masturbation as its main theme, this booklet is sometimes serious, sometimes humorous.In it you'll lean what the Bible, psychologists, doctors and the U.S. postal officials have to say about masturbation. You'll learn where masturbation got its bad reputation. You'll learn who, besides man, masturbates, and what (singularly speaking) turns women on.As Dr. Albert Ellis says, "It is certainly better to copulate." But, if you're not in that position, here's a booklet that will quiet your fears about pleasuring yourself.

Award-winning Great Plains writer Marilyn Coffey recounts her family's intricate dance with the Teamsters, beginning with her dad's tiny trucking company spawned on a front porch in 1929, in a David-and-Goliath encounter that spanned decades.In 1956, Tom Coffey knuckled under Jimmy Hoffa's six-month-long Teamsters strike. He sold his twenty-seven-year-old truckline, Coffey's Transfer Company, rather than sign Hoffa's contract. But the story didn't end there-and Hoffa didn't win after all. In 1958, the Coffey family gathered in Washington, DC, to see Tom testify against Jimmy Hoffa before then-Senator John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, the Rackets Committee's counsel who had sworn to put Hoffa behind bars.

On they came, from Belgium and New Hampshire, from Ireland, Germany and Scandinavia, from the Chicago fire, from the territories: Utah, Wyoming, Kansas, the Dakotas. All the way they brawled, about Indians, about border lines, about slavery, about who was the bigger imbecile. And then they fought County Seat Wars in most of the 3,000 new counties. A thousand of those remaining ended up in south central Nebraska, scrapping about Harlan County and which still-imagined town should hold the seat of government.
This is a story of a family in the early 1900s-a time when the anxiety of World War I was running high, the suffrage movement was in full swing across the country, and many families struggled to cope with a bleak and troubling outlook. In her trademark storytelling style, author Marilyn June Coffey beautifully paints the portrait of a family, who despite the woes of the world outside, fills their home with love and warmth, along with the excitement of new opportunites for their future. The family watched with fear as an accident changed everything in one stroke, and colored their world with a different brush.

'Genius' The New York TimesIn 1973, Norman Mailer published Marilyn, his celebrated in-depth account of the life of Marilyn Monroe, as a glossy, fully illustrated coffee-table tome.
Marilyn Laurie was a self-described "little Jewish girl from the Bronx" who became one of the world's top public relations counselors and the first woman in the top policy-making councils of a Fortune 10 company.Her career mirrored the social and political upheaval of the 20th century's last three decades. After helping launch Earth Day in 1970, she was hired by AT&T to encourage employee recycling. Marilyn: A Woman In Charge tells the behind-the-scenes story of how she who worked her way from that humble assignment into the corridors of power. When she died in 2010, Marilyn had received practically every award available to public relations practitioners. But few knew the tortuous path she journeyed to the top of her field. In a career bookended by systemic sexism and gender stereotyping, she refused to stay in the lane assigned to her by gender. When others dodged and weaved to avoid conflict, she ran towards problems, even at the risk of becoming associated with them.Her life story is a lesson in public relations leadership at the highest levels. It's a story of chance and cunning, of heady highs and humbling lows, and the gift of grace and resilience.A second-generation immigrant, Marilyn was raised in the Bronx and never lost the flat accents and directness of its streets and alleyways. She attended Barnard College in the second half of the 1950's, where she learned that women need not live their lives solely through husband and children. She graduated intending to apply her full capacities to meaningful goals outside herself.She first found goals worthy of her full capacities in environmentalism. Then, almost by accident, she found such goals at AT&T. When she joined the company, it was literally "The Telephone Company," handling more than nine out of ten phone calls in the U. S. For nearly a century, its mission had been to put a telephone within an arm's reach of every household. A regulated monopoly, its very existence depended on earning and keeping the public's trust, a goal she believed depended more on what the company did than what it said. She was also there when AT&T lost its footing in the wake of technological, social, and political change, and she worked just as hard to help it regain its balance.Based on the author's first-hand experience, archival files, and interviews with friends, colleagues, and family members, Marilyn: A Woman In Charge reveals the behind-the-scenes story of a woman who broke through the proverbial glass ceiling within a great American company. It describes how she won and kept a seat at the policy-making table, how she defined the role of public relations, and how she dealt with crises arising both from the company's missteps and from the agendas of special interests.

From the beginning of her modeling career in 1944 as Norma Jeane Mortensen to her death as the voluptuous Hollywood icon in 1962, Marilyn Monroe posed for thousands of modeling and publicity photos, scores of which have long been forgotten or abandoned in neglected studio archives. This book collects 100 of the rarest of the rare, seldom previously seen images of her brief modeling career, early days on the 20th Century Fox lot, then in candids between scene takes and traveling as a public figure as the wife of Arthur Miller and Joe DiMaggio. For the Monroe fans who think that they have seen it all, this book will provide a new lens on a beloved American icon.
