Krátky popis
",There are so many words, insults, labels and boxes for women to
be packaged and packed off in. Often, but not always, they're words
coined by men.",Why that is, is a bigger conversation that is
starting to be had by women everywhere. We're slowly, but
oh-so-surely, making it clear that there is no man in womxn.We're
writing him out and writing us back in, and we deserve a suffix all
of our own that is free from patriarchal roots. So from here on in,
we are WOMXN. Sticks and Stones is a powerful reclamation of the
slurs and insults thrown at women for centuries.It's a righting of
wrongs - a rewriting of sexist, belittling and shaming language.
It's a tool for breaking free from the stereotypes and impossible
standards used to confine women, transforming them into messages of
resilience and resolve. And, most importantly, it's a rallying call
for change, healing and empowerment.It takes the words, slurs,
insults and labels that are used to diminish women every day and
breaks them down and tears them apart. It transmutes and rewrites
these words - sometimes with all of the pain they trigger,
sometimes in the form of positive affirmations, mantras and poems -
all told in acrostics. With their underlying meditative rhythms,
these acrostics are also a remedy for healing wounds and empowering
women to have the confidence to be their true selves.You can dip in
and out, or read it cover to cover. You can come back to, and work
through, any words that resonate with you. Lexy also offers
clearing meditations at the back of the book to help you tackle the
words that hurt you most, helping to remove them from your past,
present and future.This title is illustrated by the hugely talented
illustrator and print maker Margaux Carpentier. Margaux creates
pictures using a symbolic language, so each piece has its own
unique message for every individual. Her work is inspired by all
the incredible colours of the world.She adapts her illustrations in
3D and large-scale murals, the most recent of which is currently on
display in Brown Hart Gardens in Mayfair, London.
