Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In her eighties, Sandra Butler does not identify as elderly. Or mature. She's neither plucky nor a burden, and she's not over any hills. She's old, and she's ready to reclaim that word.In this funny and intensely personal collection of essays, Butler chronicles her experience moving from aging to old, remembering and forgetting all the wrong things, feeling frustrated with technology, keeping up with the avalanche of cultural and political news, mothering two middle-aged daughters, surveying her old body, and ultimately, preparing for her death.With its sharp humor and refreshing honesty, The Kitchen Is Closed is a must-read for aging women, eldercare workers, and adult children who want to gain a fuller sense of their mother's life. Old women are cast aside in white American culture, Butler argues, and it's both disheartening and disrespectful. Butler is not a senior-she's a mother, a lesbian, a Jew, a feminist, and at times, a 'rabble-rousing hectorer.' And now that her time is running out, Butler doesn't mess around with things that don't matter. She is supremely motivated, and she's so much braver than ever before.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Roma - Souvenir Album of Photographic Views Rome, c.1900. Landscape format (165 × 253 × 30 mm), publisher's decorative red cloth, upper cover blocked in gilt "ROMA" within black ornamental border. Contains 50 mounted gelatin silver photographs, each approximately 100 × 149 mm, showing principal monuments, churches, ruins, city views of Rome, and significant artworks. Each photograph with a printed caption strip: "Edizione inalterabile" at lower left, subject title at centre, and catalogue number at lower right. Views include the Colosseum (interior and exterior), St. Peter's Basilica and Piazza, the Forum Romanum, the Capitoline, Piazza Colonna, Santa Maria Maggiore, the Pyramid of Cestius, aqueducts, and many other major sites. The photographs are glossy and well preserved, with excellent tonal range and detail; many show the characteristic bluish metallic sheen at the edges typical of early gelatin silver prints (silver mirroring). The album is a purpose-made tourist production, intended for the European travel market at the turn of the century. Although the album carries no explicit imprint, the caption style and numbering system are closely related to the productions of leading Italian photographic publishers such as Fratelli Alinari (Florence, active also in Rome) and Carlo Brogi (Florence/Rome), both of whom marketed extensive catalogues of Roman views in this period. Other Roman firms, including Giacomo Brogi, Anderson, and Danesi, also issued albums under the label "Edizione inalterabile". The consistent typography and numbering here suggest manufacture by one of these large studios supplying the Grand Tour market around 1895-1910. Condition: Binding rubbed and slightly faded, but sound and presentable. Prints clean and bright. Some light spotting and minor age toning to mounts. A complete set of 50 photographs. A substantial Roman souvenir album in unusually good condition, distinguished by containing true photographic prints rather than the more common collotype reproductions. Weight approximately 900g (unpacked).…
