CJ Hauser uses her now-beloved title essay as an anchor around which to explore the narratives of romantic love we are taught and which we tell ourselves, and the need to often rewrite those narratives to find an accurate version of ourselves in them. Told with a late-night barstool directness, through the sort of giddy confidences that usually pass between friends, Hauser relates, in dark and often funny ways, the pain of feeling out of sync with the world when you're going through the motions of a life story that doesn't match your reality. With unlikely guides from Katharine Hepburn to Defense Department robots to whooping cranes to golden era SNL comedians to Special Agent Dana Scully, Hauser grapples with the art she loves to mine new understanding of what these sorts of narratives might have to offer as a way forward. These essays follow Hauser as she dismantles the narrative expectations she carried inside her, letting go of the roles she performed to make others comfortable, and seeking joy by tending relationships with community and chosen family--love stories in their own right. The essays capture the daily work of trying, if sometimes failing, to architect a new sort of life story, a new sort of family, a sort of home, to live in. The Crane Wife and Other Essays asks what more inclusive storytelling about family and love and growth might offer us all. A book for anyone who's ever been in love with love, anyone whose life doesn't look the way they thought it would, and anyone who ever wondered: am I doing this right?"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Hauser, CJ. 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 21st century $v Biography. 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Blood: twenty-seven love stories. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Act one: the mechanicals. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Hepburn qua Hepburn. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Man behind the curtain. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Kind of deep blue. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Act two: The Fantasticks. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Lady with the lamp. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Mulder, it's me. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Nights we didn't. 700 12 $a Hauser, CJ. $t Act three: Dulcinea quits. 941 $a 18 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611021532.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206011410.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024649.0 952 $l PEPC626 $d 20230919014434.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230907010557.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015119.0 952 $l VCPD034 $d 20230331015844.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230302010649.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20230301010622.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20221005021810.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20221005014606.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20220902011558.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220824011041.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804025053.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220802014635.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20220802014119.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220802013747.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220802010713.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9F513FB8098311EDB261E6D81FECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
