Popular fiction continues to be the object of both academic and political Interest as educators seek to understand the role literacy plays in constructing gender, class, race, ethnic, sexual, age and national subjectivities of young women. Popular fiction represents both Ideological closure and utopian possibilities. Nowhere are these double-edged qualities more evident than In popular teen romance fiction. Texts of Desire examines stories in which desire, fantasy, politics and economics are intertwined with literacy, femininities and schooling. It focuses on the role of teen romance and other popular fiction in the construction and reconstruction of femininities Internationally. These texts, many of which focus on girls' first love experiences, have stunned the publishing world with their record sales and international readership in little over ten years. Developed in the United States amid the conservative political Reaganism, teen romance fiction condenses and articulates the long-standing fears and resentments of conservative groups regarding feminism, and women's growing independence and political power. Texts of Desire is a stimulating collection of essays which draw on multidisciplinary approaches from cultural studies and feminist theories, psychoanalysis, semiotics, reader research, and critical theory. Internationally recognised researchers explore the complexity of the worldwide teen romance novel phenomenon, and the political character of women's schooling and literacies.

Unmastered is a new kind of book that allows us to think afresh about sex and desire. Incisive, moving, and lyrical, it opens up a larger space for the exploration of feelings that can be difficult to express. Touching on experiences of desire and pleasure, as well as grief and pain, the book probes the porousness between masculine and feminine, thought and sensation, self and culture, power and pliancy. Katherine Angel reflects on the history of her own feelings, on her encounters and beliefs, and shows how our lives can be shaped by sexuality and feminism; by the words we use, and the stories we tell. The result is a book letting light into places that are often dark and constrained - a searching, erotic work that shifts in meaning and resonance even as it is read.

"Always write for one reader at a time." --geoff peterson Certain lines write themselves and certain books create their own destiny. Such is the crucible upon which late-night encounters may sometimes save a life. Drama & Desire is that kind of book. Composed in letters and journal entries, it describes an affaire du coeur between a young Japanese student and an aging American writer visiting Paris. Employing sources from the poetic and dramatic traditions of Japan, Peterson creates a multi-layered dreamscape of passion and research in an effort to reconcile the dreamer and memory.

• A genre-busting, thoughtful and highly readable exploration of sexuality and identity by one of Germany’s most admired writers • In this extended personal essay, Emcke draws on her own experiences to guide readers to consider how we desire, and how that affects what it means to be a person • Emcke turns her incisive reporter’s eye to her own experiences of desire and coming of age, weaving a story that is filled with evocative anecdotes and astute observations about identity, sexuality and love • Just as How We Desire attempts to resist the cultural categories and limitations put upon human desire, this broad and nuanced essay defies typical genre categories • Emcke worked as a war correspondent for Der Spiegel for fifteen years. She reported from war and crisis zones including the Gaza Strip, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq • Emcke’s reportage is critically acclaimed in Germany, where she has previously published a number of books. In 2016 she received the German Book Trade’s Peace Prize, an award previously won by Svetlana Alexievich, Susan Sontag and Margaret Atwood • How We Desire is the first of Emcke’s books to be translated into English • Will appeal to fans of Maggie Nelson’s The Argonauts, Emily Witt’s Future Sex, Eula Biss’ On Immunity, and Rebecca Solnit’s Men Explain Things To Me

We've all felt the giddy flutter of excitement when our new lover walks into the room. Waited by the phone, changed our plans...But are we in love, or is there something darker at work? In Desire: Where Sex Meets Addiction, Susan Cheever explores the shifting boundaries between the feelings of passion and addiction, desire and need, and she raises provocative and important questions about who we love and why. Elegantly written and thoughtfully composed, Cheever's book combines unsparing and intimate memoir, interviews and stories, hard science and psychology to explore the difference between falling in love and falling prey to an addiction. Part one defines what addiction is and how it works -- the obsession, the betrayals, the broken promises to oneself and others. Part two explores the possible causes of addiction -- is it nature or nurture, a permanent condition or a temporary derangement? Part three considers what we can do about it, including a provocative suggestion about how we describe and treat addiction, and a look at the importance of community and storytelling. In the end, there are no easy answers. "A straight look about some crooked feelings," Desire shows us the difference between the addiction that cripples our emotions, and healthy, empowering love that enhances our lives.

Accessibly written, this interdisciplinary book reviews theory and research on the characteristics of sexual desire, the individual physical and mental factors that influence the experience of sexual desire (hormones, age, gender, beliefs, mood), the various partner characteristics that incite sexual desire (attractiveness) and the association between sexual desire and interpersonal, relational events and experiences (romantic love). The book concludes with an examination of the personal, interpersonal and societal implications of sexual desire. Throughout, the authors draw on findings from their own body of research on sexual and romantic attraction, as well as on an extensive review of the relevant social, behavioural and medical science
