Produktbeschreibung

Ultimatum To Stranger
A woman receives an ultimatum from a scary stranger, her father.

"You had your fun; you made you mother cry, you made me upset, you made what's-his-name feel important. Now, come home.
Have you any idea how much money I spent raising you? Educating you? Making you who you are? If you think you can make yourself available the way you want to and to the people you want to, think again. Pay me back for every nickel I spent on you and then do as you wish. You are a very expensive investment for me to risk letting you make your own decisions. I own you. Every part of you I own. Your mind belongs to me. Your body belongs to me. Your ovaries belong to me. All of you and every part of you belongs to our family."

"Hey, listen" is an anthology of stories Violet and Lisa created over a period of several years. Each title is a fictionalized story, stylized as a letter, of people who were forced to confront powerful self-deceptions about the world and about their world.

Dear reader, welcome to a world of psychology and emotions.

Autorenporträt

Lisa is a psychologist. She has studied psychology, clinical psychopathology and political science. She has worked extensively with people in her community on issues regarding family, relationships, parenting, career choices, communication issues, as well as feelings of insecurity, unworthiness and despair.

Lisa and Violet created "Life In Letters" because they believe in progressive values and in a world where we understand rather than misunderstand each other. Where we can disagree without hating each other. Where we love rather than hate, not because all people always deserve our love, but because feeling love is invigorating and feeling hate is toxic. Where at least we know what it is we love or hate, because more than often we don't. Where science isn't poisoned by politics, faith, greed. Where information isn't lost in or entirely replaced by misinformation. Where the best we can have is Democracy, not just the illusion of Democracy. Where being different is being respected and celebrated rather than attacked and ridiculed. Where we all realize that our planet and everything living on it are one single organism. Where the solution to a problem pollution, floods, fires, corruption, injustice, exploitation, unaffordable housing, unaffordable healthcare, limited or no access to basic needs, attack on civil rights, attack on privacy is not to "learn to live with it", but to do something about it. We believe that caring for others and for the planet is being intelligently selfish. Love is creative, hate is destructive. Love is life, hate is death.
