Anne Roiphe Knihy
Anne Roipheová je autorkou, která se nikdy nedržela žádných stranických linií, ať už feministických, nebo jiných. Její díla jsou známá svým pronikavým pohledem na složitosti života a často zkoumají nejednoznačnosti ženské identity a mateřství. Roipheová si vybudovala pověst nekompromisní myslitelky, jejíž psaní odráží svobodomyslné a mnohostranné vnímání světa. Prostřednictvím svých románů a esejů nabízí čtenářům podnětné zamyšlení nad moderními společenskými tématy.
Set against the backdrop of 1950s Park Avenue, the memoir explores Anne Roiphe's journey from a privileged adolescence steeped in societal expectations to a quest for personal freedom and artistic expression. Rejecting the conventional role of women, she found inspiration in literary giants while mingling with notable figures of the time. After a divorce at twenty-seven, she embraced her independence and began writing, recounting her candid experiences of self-discovery and the path to redemption with remarkable honesty.
From Anne Roiphe, the critically acclaimed author of Fruitful, comes the New York Times bestselling Epilogue, a beautiful memoir about death, life, and widowhood. Roiphe explores what happened when, at age 70, she lost her husband of 40 years. Moving between heartbreaking memories of her marriage and the pressing needs of a new day-to-day routine, Epilogue takes readers on her journey into the unknown world of life after love.
