![]() Especially when you’ve had a teensy little heart attack and walking makes you winded, as it does Dot.Īnd so, Dot’s sister, Susan, has been pushing Dot and Ralfie to move to a senior living complex, which Ralfie refers to as Maple Grave because that’s what’s next, isn’t it? Yeah, and Susan is so determined to have Ralfie and Dot move into senior housing that she buys a way-off-the-beaten-path Maple Grave apartment of her own, for her and her lover, Germaine.īut Germaine’s not happy she’s more than a decade younger than Susan and besides, she’d miss her friends back in the city, just as Ralfie would miss the guys at her job at the DPW, and Dot would miss the kids at the school library where she worked. A big problem, especially when you’ve had knee surgery like Ralfie’s had. It’s been a great place and Dot and Ralfie like the neighbors and all, but Dot’s 68 and Ralfie’s over 70 and three floors of steps are a problem. ![]() These days, though, “home” is a third-floor walk-up in a Boston neighborhood. They both remember a cocktail party when Ralfie first took Dot home with her. Dot recalled, but Ralfie denied, that they met over a pool game and Ralfie wandered away. ![]() ![]() Neither Dot nor Ralfie could agree on how they met, except that it was back when good lesbian bars still existed, before the Internet. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Naturally, when you boil a historic, lengthy feminist essay down to a hundred-something-dollar designer slogan T-shirt, there are going to be reactions. Thus the question of women’s equality-in art as in any other realm-devolves not upon the relative benevolence or ill-will of individual men, nor the self-confidence or abjectness of individual women, but rather on the very nature of our institutional structures themselves and the view of reality which they impose on the human beings who are part of them. Nochlin’s essay interrogates every angle of the question, opening it up beyond gender to issues of race and class as well. If you read Nochlin’s text, you’ll gather that she poses this question not necessarily because she believes it to be true, but rather to challenge the assumptions behind it and the reactions to it - both by feminists who counter by naming female artists and misogynists who believe “women are incapable of greatness.” According to Nochlin’s granddaughter, Julia Trotta, the French fashion house reached out a few months ago to collaborate. It was a question first asked in 1971 by the American art historian Linda Nochlin, whose original essay of the same title was printed in pamphlets for the Paris Fashion Week crowd to take home in their shoulder bags.

The narrator lets the police officers in to search the premises and tells them a lie about the old man being away in the country. But no sooner has he concealed the body than there’s a knock at the door: it’s the police, having been called out by a neighbour who heard a shriek during the night. He goes to some lengths to cover up all trace of the murder and then he takes up three of the floorboards of the chamber and conceals his victim’s body underneath. He then describes how he crept into the old man’s bedroom while he slept and stabbed him, dragging the corpse away and dismembering it, so as to conceal his crime. An unnamed narrator confesses that he has murdered an old man, apparently because of the old man’s ‘Evil Eye’ which drove the narrator to kill him. ![]() The Tell-Tale Heart is a short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe, first published in 1843. ![]() ![]() ![]() Phase three: updates to her exterior (do people still wax?)

By the time adolescence brought a drastic change in attitude, I had learned unambiguously that any orientation beyond friendship with my own gender was unacceptable to my parents, peers, and to my church. From as early as age five, I had been falling in love with my female playmates except for those obligatory few tomboy years when I preferred the adventurous neighborhood boys to the uninteresting girls. My personal journey is not that much different from many of our stories. Out of this context and out of the course of my own life emerged a writer. Somehow, out of this context, we found a way to survive, to find connections, and make a life for ourselves.

One of the hard parts of reading literature from another language is that you must trust the translator has faithfully translated the text in such a way that what you read in your language is as close to the original as possible. ![]() |
