The stories focus on settling in relationships, the gap between fantasies and realities, relationship patterns, divorce, abuse, childhood pain, spirituality, feeling like a fraud, growing older, and daily struggles looking in the mirror. Once upon a time and happily ever after take on new meaning as the women’s stories reveal the underside of fairytales and toxic popular culture. Written in the first-person with language taken directly from each woman’s interview, the stories are raw, visceral, and inspirational. As a collection, the stories and art set you on an emotional rollercoaster and illustrate the different forms “low-fat love” may take, and the quest for self-worth in the context of popular culture that tells women they are never enough. The authors developed an original method of “textual visual snapshots” for this book. Low-Fat Love Stories can be used in a range of courses in art education, gender/women’s studies, popular culture, psychology, relational communicatio | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | women, gender studies; narrative inquiry; short stories; creative writing; family relationships; romantic | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-6300-818-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-6300-818-1 | copyright | SensePublishers-Rotterdam, The Netherlands 2017 |
