This is a story about a very confusing young lady who relishes torment but disallows tenderness. When Born, her boyfriend, pushes her around and humiliates her, she submits to his abuse, but when Plus, another admirer, wants to advance with kindness, she responds with resentment. Is she in search of love, or does she love to be insulted? Born was upset at Diane because she stopped to talk with some friends. When they were in the hall of their building, he grasped the back of her neck with a firm grip and berated her, Who the fuck you think you are! You dont stop and talk to nobody when you with me, bitch! I ought to fuck your dumb ass up right now. Then he shoved her ahead with the heavy grocery bags in her arms. Later on Dianes admirer named Plus came by and caught her by surprise. Plus was really fond of Diane, telling her, Stop apologizing for everything, and stop bending over backward trying to appease a headache. Youre trying too hard to make this guy comfortable, and its not going to happen! Diane was somber as she responded, Man, your saying all the right things. I really do appreciate it too. Plus stopped her, saying, Look, Diane, you dont have to be a fool for this dude. Just let me see you sometime just to talk, and I have no problem removing trash. Suddenly Born angrily burst out of the building looking fierce as he glared at Plus, who returned the gaze. Diane froze in fear looking up at Born with bulging eyes. Plus and Born were about to clash when Diane stepped between them, shouting, Stop! Stop! Dont fight, I said! She turned to face Plus. Plus, what are you doing? Just what the hell are you doing? I dont wanna talk to you! You should have just kept going by. I know what I can do, and I know I dont want you. Born is my man, and I dont ever want talk to you again, okay. Dont come around here picking a fight with my man over me because youre not all that, now, bye! She went into the building leaving Plus standing by the stoop, and he was stunned by the event.

"De Cespedes' work has lost none of its subversive force” —The New York Times Book Review From the author of Forbidden Notebook, Alba de Céspedes, a richly told novel she called “the story of a great love and of a crime.” As she looks back on her life, Alessandra Corteggiani recalls her youth during the rise of fascism in Italy, the resistance, and the fall of Mussolini, the lives of the women in her family and her working-class neighborhood, rigorously committed to telling “her side of the story.” Alessandra witnesses her mother, an aspiring concert pianist, suffer from the inability to escape her oppressive marriage. Later, she is sent away to live with her father's relatives in the country, in the hope she’ll finally learn to submit herself to the patriarchal system and authority. But at the farm, Alessandra grows increasingly rebellious, conscious of the unjust treatment of generations of hardworking women in her family. When she refuses the marriage proposal from a neighboring farmer, she is sent back to Rome to tend to her ailing father. In Rome, Alessandra meets Francesco, a charismatic anti-fascist professor, who ostensibly admires and supports her sense of independence and justice. But she soon comes to recognize that even as she respects Francesco and is keen to participate in his struggle to reclaim their country from fascism, this respect is unrequited, and that her own beloved husband is ensnared by patriarchal conventions when it comes to their relationship. In these pages, De Céspedes delivers a breathtakingly accurate and timeless portrayal of the complexity of the female condition against the dramatic backdrop of WWII and the partisan uprising in Italy.

Eloise Ristad deals here with complex problems which torment and cripple so many of our most creative and talented people, and she does so with compassion, wisdom, and wit. The problem of stage fright, for instance, is a suffering of epidemic proportions in our society, and involves modalities of thought and projections that rob spontaneity and enthusiasm in artistic performance. Those interested in creative education have long felt that an entirely new, holistic and nurturing process of allowing individuals to discover and express themselves is needed if our educational system is to avoid the neuroses and creative blocks of the past generation. This book illuminates through its conversational style the destructive inhibitions, fears, and guilt experienced by all of us as we fail to break through to creativity. This story is told to me day after day in conservatories and college campuses around the world. Indeed I felt at times that she was telling of my own most petty and debilitating fears. But what is important, A Soprano on Her Head supplies answers and methods for overcoming these universal psychological blocks--methods that have not only been proven in her own studio, but which trace back through history to the oldest and wisest systems of understanding the integration of mind and body. The work bears scrutiny both scientifically and holistically. - Foreword.
