Wide-ranging and engaging, Selves in Question considers the various ways in which auto/biographical accounts situate and question the self in contemporary southern Africa.The twenty-seven interviews presented here consider both the ontological status and the representation of the self. They remind us that the self is constantly under construction in webs of interlocution and that its status and representation are always in question. The contributors, therefore, look at ways in which auto/biographical practices contribute to placing, understanding, and troubling the self and selves in postcolonies in the current global constellation. They examine topics such as the contexts conducive to production processes; the contents and forms of auto/biographical accounts; and finally, their impact on the producers and the audience. In doing so they map out a multitude of variables--including the specific historical juncture, geo-political locations, social positions, cultures, languages, generations, and genders--in their relations to auto/biographical practices. Those interviewed include the famous and the hardly known, women and men, writers and performers who communicate in a variety of languages: Afrikaans, English, Xhosa, isiZulu, Sesotho, and Yiddish. An extensive introduction offers a general framework on the contestation of self through auto/biography, a historical overview of auto/biographical representation in South Africa up to the present time, an outline of theoretical and thematic issues at stake in southern Africa auto/biography, and extensive primary and secondary biographies. Interviewees: Breyten Breytenbach, Dennis Brutus, Valentine Cascarino, Vanitha Chetty, Wilfred Cibane, Greig Coetzee, J. M. Coetzee, Paul Faber, David Goldblatt, Stephen Gray, Dorian Haarhoff, Rayda Jacobs, Elsa Joubert, K. Limakatso Kendall, Ester Lee, Doris Lessing, Sindiwe Magona, Margaret McCord, N.

“Dia menatapku dari majalah-majalah, koran-koran, dan layar-layar di kota mana pun aku berada. Itu ayahku dan tidak ada yang tahu, tapi itulah kenyataannya. Bagaimana sedihnya ditolak ayah sendiri? Getirnya harus merahasiakan fakta bahwa ayahmu salah satu orang paling terkenal di dunia? Seperti sinetron, tapi ini kisah nyata. Lisa Brennan-Jobs, putri sulung Steve Jobs, pencipta merek komputer dan gawai ternama, harus menanggung krisis identitas diri parah selama bertahun-tahun akibat hubungan keluarga yang rumit dan tidak stabil. Chrisann, ibu kandung Lisa, dan Steve Jobs tidak pernah berencana memiliki anak di usia muda. Gaya hidup Chrisann sebagai seorang seniman cenderung bebas, dan kondisi ekonominya terbatas. Ketika hubungan Chrisann dan Lisa memburuk, Lisa memutuskan untuk tinggal bersama sang ayah, yang kaya raya namun sering bersikap dingin kepadanya. Lisa berusaha keras untuk menjadi anak baik dan berprestasi, demi mencecap kasih sayang sang ayah. Tapi Steve Jobs tetap menjaga jarak dengan putrinya, membuat Lisa kecewa. Terkoyak antara benci dan cinta, Lisa berjuang untuk memahami dan menerima siapa dirinya. Tujuh tahun setelah Steve Jobs tiada akibat kanker pankreas, Lisa menghimpun keberanian untuk berbagi kisah hidupnya yang kontroversial. Inilah Small Fry, kisah Lisa Brennan-Jobs, yang menurut New York Times ditulis dengan “indah sekaligus memilukan”. NELAYAN KETIGA. Master, aku bertanya-tanya bagaimana ikan hidup di laut. NELAYAN PERTAMA. Yah, seperti manusia hidup di darat; yang besar-besar menyantap yang kecil-kecil. Tak ada perbandingan yang lebih tepat untuk orang kaya yang kikir daripada seekor paus; hilir mudik kian kemari, memancing ikan-ikan kecil yang malang ke depannya, lalu akhirnya melahap mereka semua dalam sekali telan. Paus-paus semacam itu kerap kudengar di darat, yang tak pernah berhenti menganga sampai mereka sudah menelan seluruh paroki, gereja, menara, lonceng-lonceng, dan semuanya. —Shakespeare, Pericles Sungguh pengalaman aneh, menjadi sosok anonim yang berdiri di tengah hujan salju, dan menjadi pusat perhatian publik. —Saul Bellow, Humboldt’s Gift Tiga bulan sebelum dia meninggal, aku mulai mencuri barang-barang dari rumah ayahku. Aku berkeliaran tanpa alas kaki dan menyelipkan benda-benda ke dalam sakuku. Aku mengambil perona pipi, pasta gigi, dua mangkuk warna biru tosca yang gompel, sebotol cat kuku, sepasang sandal balet usang, dan empat sarung bantal putih kusam. Setelah mencuri setiap benda, aku merasa puas. Aku berjanji pada diri sendiri bahwa ini akan menjadi yang terakhir. Namun, tak lama kemudian dorongan untuk mengambil benda lainnya kembali datang seperti dahaga. Aku berjingkat-jingkat memasuki kamar ayahku, berhati-hati agar tidak menginjak papan lantai yang berderit di ambang pintu. Kamar ini dulu ruang kerjanya, waktu dia masih kuat naik tangga, tapi dia tidur di sini sekarang. Kamar itu berantakan disesaki buku-buku, surat, dan botol-botol obat; apel-apel kaca, apel-apel kayu; berbagai penghargaan, majalah-majalah, dan bertumpuk-tumpuk kertas. Ada lukisan-lukisan berbingkai karya Hasui yang menggambarkan senja dan matahari terbenam di kuil-kuil. Sepetak cahaya merah muda terpentang di dinding di sampingnya. Dia berbaring bertopangkan bantal-bantal di tempat tidur, mengenakan celana pendek. Tungkainya telanjang dan sekurus lengan, menekuk seperti tungkai belalang. “Hai, Lis,” panggilnya. Segyu Rinpoche berdiri di sebelahnya. Akhir-akhir ini lelaki itu selalu ada saat aku datang berkunjung. Lelaki Brasil bertubuh pendek dengan mata cokelat berbinar, sang Rinpoche adalah biksu Buddha bersuara parau yang mengenakan jubah cokelat menutupi perut bulatnya. Kami memanggil lelaki itu dengan gelarnya. Zaman sekarang, orang-orang suci dari Tibet terkadang lahir di barat, di tempat-tempat seperti Brasil. Bagiku dia tidak “terlihat” suci—dia tidak tampak berjarak atau gaib. Di dekat kami, sebuah kantong kanvas hitam berisi zat gizi berdengung oleh mesin dan pompa, selangnya menghilang di suatu tempat di bawah seprai ayahku. “Menyentuh kakinya itu ide yang bagus,” Rinpoche berkata, meletakkan tangannya melingkari kaki ayahku di tempat tidur. “Seperti ini.” Aku tidak tahu apakah sentuhan kaki itu ide bagus untuk ayahku, atau untukku, atau untuk kami berdua. Oke,” kataku, lalu meraih satu kaki yang dibalut kaus kaki tebal, walaupun rasanya aneh ketika mengawasi wajah ayahku, karena saat dia mengernyit kesakitan atau marah kelihatannya sama seperti saat dia hendak tersenyum. “Rasanya enak,” kata ayahku sambil memejamkan mata. Aku melirik lemari laci di sampingnya dan rak-rak di sisi lain kamar itu, mencari benda-benda yang kuinginkan, walaupun aku tahu aku takkan berani mencuri di depan matanya. Selagi dia tidur, aku berkeliaran di sekeliling rumah, mencari-cari entah apa. Seorang perawat duduk di sofa di ruang tamu, kedua tangan di pangkuan, bersiaga mendengarkan panggilan dari ayahku. Rumah itu sepi, suara-suara teredam, dinding batu bata bercat putih berlekuk-lekuk seperti bantal. Lantai terakota terasa sejuk di kakiku kecuali di bagian-bagian tempat matahari telah menghangatkannya menyamai suhu kulit. Dalam lemari di kamar mandi kecil dekat dapur, tempat dulunya ada satu edisi Bhagavad Gita yang sudah koyak-koyak, aku menemukan sebotol penyegar wajah mawar yang mahal. Dengan pintu tertutup, lampu dimatikan, duduk di penutup toilet, aku menyemprotkannya ke udara dan memejamkan mata. Percikannya jatuh di sekelilingku, sejuk dan suci, bagaikan di dalam hutan atau gereja batu tua. Selain itu, ada tabung perak lip gloss dengan sikat di salah satu ujungnya dan mekanisme pemutar di ujung satunya yang mengalirkan cairan ke tengah-tengah sikat. Aku harus memilikinya. Aku menjejalkan lip gloss itu ke dalam saku untuk kubawa pulang ke apartemen satu kamar di Greenwich Village yang kutempati bersama pacarku. Aku tahu pasti bahwa tabung lip gloss ini akan melengkapi hidupku. Di antara menghindari pembantu rumah tangga, adik-adikku, dan ibu tiriku di sepenjuru rumah supaya tidak ketahuan mencuri barang-barang, atau terluka saat mereka tidak memedulikanku atau membalas sapaanku, dan menyemprot diri sendiri dalam kamar mandi gelap agar aku tidak merasa terlalu menghilang—sebab di tengah tetes-tetes air yang berjatuhan aku merasa seakan-akan kembali mewujud. Berupaya menemui ayahku yang sakit di kamarnya mulai terasa seperti beban bagiku. Sepanjang tahun lalu aku berkunjung pada akhir pekan kurang lebih setiap dua bulan sekali. Aku sudah menyerah mengharapkan rekonsiliasi agung, seperti di film-film, tapi aku tetap saja datang. Di antara waktu kunjungan, aku melihat ayahku di mana-mana di New York. Aku melihatnya duduk dalam bioskop, lekuk leher yang sama persis sampai ke rahang dan tulang pipi. Aku melihatnya saat aku berlari menyusuri Sungai Hudson pada musim dingin, duduk di bangku menatap kapal-kapal di galangan; dan dalam perjalananku menaiki subway ke tempat kerja, melangkah pergi di peron menembus kerumunan. Para lelaki-lelaki kurus dengan kulit sewarna zaitun, jemari lentik, pergelangan tangan ramping, wajah berhias pangkal janggut yang kutemui di jalan, dari sudut-sudut tertentu, terlihat mirip dengannya. Setiap kali aku harus mendekat untuk mengecek, dengan jantung berdebar, walaupun aku tahu itu tidak mungkin dia karena dia sedang terbaring sakit di California. Sebelum ini, selama tahun-tahun yang kami lalui nyaris tanpa bicara, aku melihat fotonya di mana-mana. Melihat foto-foto itu memberiku perasaan ganjil. Rasanya sama seperti menangkap kilasan diriku dalam cermin di seberang ruangan dan mengira itu orang lain, lalu menyadari itu wajahku sendiri: Dia ada di sana, menatapku dari majalah-majalah, koran-koran, dan layar-layar di kota mana pun aku berada. Itu ayahku dan tidak ada yang tahu, tapi itulah kenyataannya. Sebelum berpamitan, aku pergi ke kamar mandi untuk menyemprotkan penyegar sekali lagi. Semprotan itu alami, yang artinya setelah beberapa menit berlalu aromanya tidak lagi tajam seperti mawar, tapi berbau busuk dan lembap seperti rawa, walaupun saat itu aku tidak menyadarinya. Sewaktu aku masuk ke kamarnya, Ayah tengah bersiap untuk berdiri. Aku mengamatinya menyatukan kedua tungkai dalam satu lengan, memutar tubuhnya sembilan puluh derajat dengan menekan kepala tempat tidur menggunakan lengan satunya, kemudian mengerahkan kedua lengan untuk mengangkat tungkainya melewati pinggiran tempat tidur dan memijak lantai. Ketika kami berpelukan, aku bisa merasakan tulang belakangnya, tulang rusuknya. Dia berbau apak, seperti keringat obat. “Nanti aku kembali lagi,” kataku. Kami melepaskan pelukan, dan aku mulai berjalan pergi. “Lis?” “Ya?” “Baumu seperti toilet.” [Mizan, Mizan Publishing, Qanita, Fiksi, Kisah, Keluarga, Dewasa, Indonesia]

Inequality in Education: Comparative and International Perspectives is a compilation of conceptual chapters and national case studies that includes a series of methods for measuring education inequalities. The book provides up-to-date scholarly research on global trends in the distribution of formal schooling in national populations. It also offers a strategic comparative and international education policy statement on recent shifts in education inequality, and new approaches to explore, develop and improve comparative education and policy research globally. Contributing authors examine how education as a process interacts with government finance policy to form patterns of access to education services. In addition to case perspectives from 18 countries across six geographic regions, the volume includes six conceptual chapters on topics that influence education inequality, such as gender, disability, language and economics, and a summary chapter that presents new evidence on the pernicious consequences of inequality in the distribution of education. The book offers (1) a better and more holistic understanding of ways to measure education inequalities; and (2) strategies for facing the challenge of inequality in education in the processes of policy formation, planning and implementation at the local, regional, national and global levels.

In an era of incivility, discover a timeless guide to good manners from First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. “The basis of all good human behavior is kindness,” says Eleanor Roosevelt in this classic handbook, first published in 1962 as a “modern book of etiquette for modern Americans.” As a politician, diplomat, and activist, as well as the longest-serving First Lady of the United States, Mrs. Roosevelt knew that thoughtful, civil behavior was essential to peaceful, productive relationships. In this etiquette guide, she teaches that decorum is not about strict adherence to formal rules; it is about approaching all social situations with consideration for others. She advises, “If ever you find yourself in a situation in which following a formal rule would be manifestly unkind, forget it, and be kind instead.” Drawing from her personal and professional experiences, Roosevelt covers a broad range of topics, including business dealings and family affairs, writing letters and receiving guests, and entertaining at home and traveling abroad. Beginning with the necessity of good manners between husband and wife, she considers the importance of courtesy in society at large and the role all Americans play as ambassadors of democracy while visiting foreign countries. In an era of incivility, Eleanor Roosevelt’s Book of Common Sense Etiquette is more relevant than ever.

This vivid memoir captures how race, class, and privilege shaped a white boy’s coming of age in 1970s New York—now with a new epilogue. “I am not your typical middle-class white male,” begins Dalton Conley’s Honky, an intensely engaging memoir of growing up amid predominantly African American and Latino housing projects on New York’s Lower East Side. In narrating these sharply observed memories, from his little sister’s burning desire for cornrows to the shooting of a close childhood friend, Conley shows how race and class inextricably shaped his life—as well as the lives of his schoolmates and neighbors. In a new afterword, Conley, now a well-established senior sociologist, provides an update on what his informants’ respective trajectories tell us about race and class in the city. He further reflects on how urban areas have (and haven’t) changed over the past few decades, including the stubborn resilience of poverty in New York. At once a gripping coming-of-age story and a brilliant case study illuminating broader inequalities in American society, Honky guides us to a deeper understanding of the cultural capital of whiteness, the social construction of race, and the intricacies of upward mobility.
