Daily Mail'Brearley's book leaves no stone unturned in what needs
to be done to remedy these problems going forward' - Vogue UK'Joeli
is one of the most tenacious and impressive campaigners I know, and
her work has had a massive positive impact on the lives of
thousands of women. Her work is invaluable, from setting up a vital

battled for women not to be left out of the picture altogether.' -
Laura BatesImagine suddenly being sacked from your job. After
spending years building your career, it's all taken away in just
one moment.Why? Because you told your boss you are pregnant. This
happened to Joeli Brearley. And she quickly realised she wasn't
alone - 54,000 women a year are forced out of their job because
they dared to procreate, and three quarters of working mothers face
workplace discrimination.And this was before the pandemic, with its
never-ending cycle of extraordinary childcare challenges and overt
pregnancy and maternity discrimination, resulting in a tsumani of
mothers exiting the labour force. Pregnant Then Screwed is an
expose of the unscrupulous work practices and antiquated systems
that we've been conditioned to accept and a toolkit for how to
challenge them. It's full of practical advice to help you navigate
systemic barriers when they slap you in the face.Whether you're a
mother who is sick of being sidelined, undermined, and underpaid. A
''stay at home'' mother who wants to work but can't. A future
parent who is scared that having children will affect your
career.An employer who wants to get the best out of its parent
employees, or you simply want a stronger, fairer economy, Pregnant
Then Screwed is a compelling manifesto for change and a call to
arms for all women.

V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
