Book Description

No other relationship matches the closeness, trust, and forever friendship that sisters share. It is a connection that deserves to be both honored and cultivated, and that's just what award-winning illustrator Mary Engelbreit does in Such Devoted Sisters: A Sister's Treasury. Such Devoted Sisters celebrates sisterhood with a collection of Mary Engelbreit's warm and colorful artwork interspersed with stories, poems, quotations, songs, and verses about sisters by authors such as Christina Rosetti, Charlotte Brontë, Laura Tracy, Louisa May Alcott, Irving Berlin, Margaret Mead, and Shel Silverstein. Mary also shares some of her own cherished memories of the sisters she grew up with and the new "sisters" she's found in dear friends along the way. After all, sisterhood isn't just about families-it's about deep friendship as well. Such Devoted Sisters is the perfect keepsake for sisters of all kinds, and it includes an inside pocket to share a special photograph. This heartwarming collection follows in a tradition of best-selling Mary Engelbreit treasuries, including The Blessings of Friendship, Mother O' Mine, Tiny Teeny Halloweeny Treasury and Believe: A Christmas Treasury. Such Devoted Sisters is a special and lasting tribute to one of life's strongest bonds.

Book Description

Sibling rivalry and the bonds of sisterhood span generations in this “irresistible” New York Times–bestselling family saga (San Francisco Chronicle). If it weren’t for her sister, Dolly might have been the most famous actress of Hollywood’s golden age. But Eve’s beauty and drive have pushed Dolly onto the B-list, where the seeds of jealousy take root. An unscrupulous agent gives her a chance at a comeback, and she takes it at Eve’s expense. She gives her sister’s name to Senator Joe McCarthy, ending Eve’s career and sparking a family tragedy that resonates through the decades. Years later, Eve’s daughters are pitted against each other, each competing for the affections of the same man. One is a chocolatier, the other an aspiring illustrator. In seeking to regain the sisterly love that eluded their mother and aunt, they discover the awful truth about the past, which haunts their family still. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Eileen Goudge including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

Book Description

Never were there such devoted sisters...or so the song would have it. Though some may be inseparable, for others the relationship arouses intense, tangled emotions. Louisa May Alcott, Mary Flanagan, Janet Frame, Elizabeth Gaskell, Georgina Hammick, Elizabeth Jolley, Katherine Mansfield and Edna O'Brien are among the prestigious writers who unravel this intricate bond. Stories that reveal remarkable allegiances and private codes are counterpointed by those of sisters pitched against one another in battles for parental affection or sibling supremacy. Here are sisters who lose one another to lovers or to marriage, and one who chooses her sister in favour of a husband...Rivalry, companionship, love and dislike feature in a collection that exposes the innermost secrets of family life. As delightful, surprising - and sometimes disturbing - as the ties they explore, these stories are essential reading.

Book Description

Devoted Sisters seeks to explore - and explain - the power of the sister bond in nineteenth-century literature. Sarah Annes Brown has researched a wide range of British and American texts, including both canonical works, such as Pride and Prejudice, Little Women and Middlemarch, and fascinating but lesser known novels by authors such as Dinah Mulock Craik and Catharine Sedgwick. In addition to contemporary resources such as conduct books, letters, and accounts of parliamentary proceedings, Devoted Sisters draws on recent psychoanalytical and anthropological research to illuminate nineteenth-century depictions of the sister relationship. Building on the work of Girard and Kosofsky Sedgwick, Brown concludes her study with an exploration of the Deceased Wife's Sister Act and the 'lesbian incest effect'.
