Telle mère, telle fille: comment réussir la relation la plus complexe de votre vie (Harmonie nouvelle)
Par Victoria Secunda. 1991
Les enfants de Jocaste
Par Christiane Olivier. 1980
Voici "l'autre psychanalyse", la part féminine, celle que Freud n'a pas pu écrire. En face d'Œdipe, il y a Jocaste,…
sa mère, qui règne sur son fils en l'absence de Laïos, le père tué. Et Jocaste règne toujours, non seulement sur son fils, mais sur sa fille, en l'absence du père qui abandonne avec joie les soins et l'éducation du jeune enfant à sa femme. Soins et éducation qui sont ainsi monosexués alors que les enfants sont de deux sexes.. Pour Christiane Olivier, femme et psychanalyste, c'est l'ombre de la mère, ressentie si différemment par le petit garçon et la petite fille, qui explique et nourrit l'antagonisme séculaire entre l'homme et la femme. Dans un style clair et accessible à tous, elle dresse le procès non pas de la maternité, mais du maternage, procès qui peut aussi se lire comme un mode d'emploi de la vie du couple.. Elle démontre, avec humour, que la fameuse "envie du pénis" dont souffriraient les femmes pourrait bien n'être que la projection d'une "envie du sein" ou "envie de l'utérus" dont souffriraient les hommes, et que nos hommes politiques ayant parfois résolu leur œdipe n'ont presque jamais résolu "leur jocaste"..De l'autre côté du miroir: journal de croissance personnelle par le rêve et l'art

Nous manquons de confiance pour entrer en relation avec l'inconnu. Surveillez-vous en train de « déboguer » un ordinateur quand…
vous comprenez plus ou moins son fonctionnement. Hésitation, chacun de vos mouvements manifeste un manque de confiance. Puis, voyez en action un « crack » chevronné de l'informatique, tous ses mouvements traduisent la confiance. C'est la même chose dans vos rapports avec les gens, mieux nous connaissons cette relation, plus cette dernière sera empreinte de confiance. Mémoriser quelques règles concernant les rapports humains et les appliquer comme si elles constituaient des trucs ne vous apportera pas la confiance dans vos relations humaines.La mamie qui dit tout haut ce que les grands-mères pensent tout bas

Fluke: Chance, chaos, and why everything we do matters
Par Brian Klaas. 2024
Want to know what chaos theory can teach us about human events? In the perspective-altering tradition of Malcolm Gladwell's The…
Tipping Point and Nassim Nicholas Taleb's The Black Swan comes a provocative challenge to how we think our world works—and why small, chance events can divert our lives and change everything, by social scientist and Atlantic writer Brian Klaas. If you could rewind your life to the very beginning and then press play, would everything turn out the same? Or could making an accidental phone call or missing an exit off the highway change not just your life, but history itself? And would you remain blind to the radically different possible world you unknowingly left behind? In Fluke, myth-shattering social scientist Brian Klaas dives deeply into the phenomenon of random chance and the chaos it can sow, taking aim at most people's neat and tidy storybook version of reality. The book's argument is that we willfully ignore a bewildering truth: but for a few small changes, our lives—and our societies—could be radically different. Offering an entirely new lens, Fluke explores how our world really works, driven by strange interactions and apparently random events. How did one couple's vacation cause 100,000 people to die? Does our decision to hit the snooze button in the morning radically alter the trajectory of our lives? And has the evolution of humans been inevitable, or are we simply the product of a series of freak accidents? Drawing on social science, chaos theory, history, evolutionary biology, and philosophy, Klaas provides a brilliantly fresh look at why things happen—all while providing mind-bending lessons on how we can live smarter, be happier, and lead more fulfilling livesNotre dernier voyage

Mary Louise Kelly that is destined to become a classic—about the year before her son goes to college—and the joys, losses and surprises that happen along the way. The time for do-overs is over. Ever since she became a parent, Mary Louise Kelly has said "next year." Next year will be the year she makes it to her son James's soccer games (which are on weekdays at 4 p.m., right when she is on the air on NPR's All Things Considered , talking to millions of listeners). Drive carpool for her son Alexander? Not if she wants to do that story about Ukraine and interview the secretary of state. Like millions of parents who wrestle with raising children while pursuing a career, she has never been cavalier about these decisions. The bargain she has always made with herself is this: this time I'll get on the plane, and next year I'll find a way to be there for the mom stuff. Well, James and Alexander are now seventeen and fifteen, and a realization has overtaken Mary Louise: her older son will be leaving soon for college. There used to be years to make good on her promises; now, there are months, weeks, minutes. And with the devastating death of her beloved father, Mary Louise is facing act three of her life head-on. Mary Louise is coming to grips with the reality every parent faces. Childhood has a definite expiration date. You have only so many years with your kids before they leave your house to build their own lives. It's what every parent is supposed to want, what they raise their children to do. But it is bittersweet. Mary Louise is also dealing with the realities of having aging parents. This pivotal time brings with it the enormous questions of what you did right and what you did wrong. This chronicle of her eldest child's final year at home, of losing her father, as well as other curve balls thrown at her, is not a definitive answer?not for herself and certainly not for any other parent. But her questions, her issues, will resonate with every parent. And, yes, especially with mothers, who are judged more harshly by society and, more important, judge themselves more harshly. What would she do if she had to decide all over again? Mary Louise's thoughts as she faces the coming year will speak to anyone who has ever cared about a child or a parent. It. Goes. So. Fast. is honest, funny, poignant, revelatory, and immensely relatable. A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & CompanyThe takeover
Par Cara Tanamachi. 2024
On Nami's thirtieth birthday, she's reminded at every turn that her life isn't what she'd planned. She's always excelled at…
everything—until now. Her fiancé blew up their engagement. Her pride and joy, the tech company she helped to found, is about to lose funding. And her sister, Sora, is getting married to the man of her dreams, Jack—and instead of being happy for her, as Nami knows she ought to be, she's fighting off jealousy. Frustrated with her life, she makes a wish on a birthday candle to find her soulmate. Instead the universe delivers her hate mate, Nami's old nemesis, Jae Lee, the most popular kid from her high school, who also narrowly beat her out for valedictorian. More than a decade later, Jae is still as effortlessly cool, charming, and stylish as ever, and, to make matters worse, he's planning a hostile takeover of her start-up. Cue sharp elbows and even sharper banter as the two go head-to-head to see who'll win this time. But when their rivalry ignites a different kind of passion, Nami starts to realize it's not just her company that's in danger of being taken over, but her heart as wellCome together: The science (and art!) of creating lasting sexual connections
Par Emily Nagoski. 2024
From the New York Times bestselling author of Come as You Are and co-author of Burnout comes an illuminating exploration…
of how to maintain a happy sex life in a long-term relationship. &“Emily Nagoski is a national treasure—helping us all understand how to finally build true, joyful, confident sex lives.&”—Glennon Doyle, author of Untamed In Come as You Are, Emily Nagoski, PhD, revolutionized the way we think about women&’s sexuality. Now, in Come Together, Nagoski takes on a fundamentally misunderstood subject: sex in long-term relationships. Most of us struggle at some point to maintain a sexual connection with our partner/s or spouse. And many of us are given not-very-good advice on what to do about it. In this book, Nagoski dispels the myths we&’ve been taught about sex—for instance, the belief that sexual satisfaction and desire are highest at the beginning of a relationship and that they inevitably decline the longer that relationship lasts. Nagoski assures us that&’s not true. So, what is true? Come Together isn&’t about how much we want sex, or how often we&’re having it; it&’s about whether we like the sex we&’re having. Nagoski breaks down the obstacles that impede us from enjoying sex—from stress and body image to relationship difficulties and gendered beliefs about how sex &“should&” be—and presents the best ways to overcome them. You&’ll learn: • that &“spontaneous desire&” is not the kind of desire to strive for if you want to have great sex for decades • vocabulary for talking with partners about ways to get in &“the mood&” and how to not take it personally when &“the mood&” is nowhere to be found • how to understand your own and your partner&’s &“emotional floorplan,&” so that you have a blueprint for how to get to a sexy state of mind Written with scientific rigor, humor, and compassion, Nagoski shows us what great sex can look like, how to create it in our own lives, and what to do when struggles ariseDevenez votre priorité!: l'importance de se choisir

nous nous retrouvons souvent à accepter les multiples demandes et les propositions de notre entourage. Nous constatons alors que nous donnons priorité aux autres dans ce tourbillon de sollicitations. L'importance de se prioriser ne veut pas dire négliger ou ignorer les gens qui nous entourent, mais bien de s'assurer que nos actions et nos décisions soient cohérentes avec ce que nous souhaitons vraiment, sans être égoïste pour autantI heard her call my name: A memoir of transition

An iconic writer&’s lapidary memoir of a life spent pursuing a dream of artistic truth while evading the truth of…
her own gender identity, until, finally, she turned to face who she really was For a long time, Lucy Sante felt unsure of her place. Born in Belgium, the only child of conservative working-class Catholic parents who transplanted their little family to the United States, she felt at home only when she moved to New York City in the early 1970s and found her people among a band of fellow bohemians. Some would die young, to drugs and AIDS, and some would become jarringly famous. Sante flirted with both fates, on her way to building an estimable career as a writer. But she still felt like her life a performance. She was presenting a façade, even to herself. Sante&’s memoir braids together two threads of personal narrative: the arc of her life, and her recent step-by-step transition to a place of inner and outer alignment. Sante brings a loving irony to her account of her unsteady first steps; there was much she found she still needed to learn about being a woman after some sixty years cloaked in a man&’s identity, in a man&’s world. A marvel of grace and empathy, I Heard Her Call My Name parses with great sensitivity many issues that touch our lives deeply, of gender identity and far beyondThe other significant others: Reimagining life with friendship at the center

cultural narratives about which relationships matter . . . an arresting work of compassion and insight." —Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone and co-host of Dear Therapists podcast Why do we assume romantic relationships are more important than friendships? What do we lose when we expect a spouse to meet all our needs? And what can we learn about commitment, love, and family from people who put deep friendship at the center of their lives? In The Other Significant Others , NPR's Rhaina Cohen invites us into the lives of people who have defied convention by choosing a friend as a life partner—these are friends who are home co-owners, co-parents or each other's caregivers. Their riveting stories unsettle widespread assumptions about relationships, including the idea that sex is a defining feature of partnership and that people who raise kids together should be in a romantic relationship. Platonic partners from different walks of life—spanning age and religion, gender and sexuality and more—reveal how freeing and challenging it can be to embrace a relationship model that society doesn't recognize. And they show that orienting your world around friends isn't limited to daydreams and episodes of The Golden Girls , but actually possible in real life. Based on years of original reporting and striking social science research, Cohen argues that we undermine romantic relationships by expecting too much of them, while we diminish friendships by expecting too little of them. She traces how, throughout history, our society hasn't always fixated on marriage as the greatest source of meaning, or even love. At a time when many Americans are spending large stretches of their lives single, widowed or divorced, or feeling the effects of the "loneliness epidemic," Cohen insists that we recognize the many forms of profound connection that can anchor our lives. A rousing and incisive book, The Other Significant Others challenges us to ask what we want from our relationships—not just what we're supposed to want—and transforms how we define a fulfilling life.
