Miss Angel $7.49 A word was coined to describe the condition of people stricken with a new kind of fever when the Swiss-born artist Angelica Kauffman (1741-1807) came to London in 1766. ‘The whole world’, it was said, ‘is Angelicamad.’ One of the most successful women artists in history – a painter who possessed what her friend Goethe called an ‘unbelievable’ and ‘massive’ talent – Kauffman became the toast of Georgian England, captivating society with her portraits, mythological scenes and decorative compositions. She knew and painted poets, novelists and playwrights, collaborating with them and illustrating their work; her designs adorned the houses of the Grand Tourists she had met and painted in Italy; actors, statesmen, philosophers, kings and queen sat to her; and she was the force that launched a thousand engravings. Despite rumours of relationships with other artists (including Sir Joshua Reynolds), and an apparently bigamous and annulled first marriage to a pseudo Count, Kauffman was adopted by royalty in England and abroad as a model of social and artistic decorum. A profoundly learned artist, but one who is loved, above all, for her tender adaptations from classical antiquity and sentimental literature; a commercially successful celebrity yet also a founding member of The Royal Academy of arts; the virginal creator of sexually ambivalent beings who was one of the hardest-headed businesswomen of her age, Kauffman’s life and work is full of apparent contradictions explored in this first biography in over 80 years. |

"There She Is, Miss America" $90 While some see the Miss American Pageant as hokey vestige of another era, many remain enthralled by the annual Atlantic City event. And whether you love it or hate it, no one can deny the impact the contest has had on American popular culture-indeed, many reality television shows seem to have taken cues from the pageant. Founded in 1921, the Miss America Pageant has provided a fascinating glimpse into how American standards of femininity have been defined, projected, maintained, and challenged. At various times, it has been praised as a positive role model for young American women, protested as degrading to women by feminists, and shamed by scandals, such as the one caused by the Penthouse photos of Vanessa Williams in 1984. In this first interdisciplinary anthology to examine this uniquely American event, scholars defend, critique, and reflect on the pageant, grappling with themes like beauty, race, the body, identity, kitsch, and consumerism. ""There She Is, Miss America"" provides a fascinating examination of an enduring American icon. |

Miss Congeniality/Miss Congeniality 2: Armed & Fabulous $12.71 MISS CONGENIALITY: When a notorious criminal mastermind known only as the Citizen threatens to terrorize the Miss United States Pageant, the FBI scours their ranks to find a female agent capable of winning the contest and capturing the killer before it’s too late. Special Agent Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) may be the most physically beautiful woman in the Bureau, but her tomboyish lack of feminine grace jeopardizes the plan and spells disaster. Forced to turn to the once-proud beauty pageant consultant Victor Melling (Michael Caine), Agent Eric Matthews (Benjamin Bratt) tries to accomplish the impossible goal of transforming Hart from an unrefined rogue to a model candidate of elegance, poise, and style, with the irresistible power to win the pageant and simultaneously catch the killer. MISS CONGENIALITY combines the hilarious physical comedy and girl-next-door charm of Sandra Bullock with Michael Caine’s trademark British wit and impotent outrage, adding up to a devastating orgy of comedy, glamour, and catastrophe.MISS CONGENIALITY 2: Picking up three months after the events of the first film, this inspired sequel opens with agent Gracie Hart (Sandra Bullock) back in action against a team of lady bank robbers, only to have her cover blown by her newfound fame. In an effort to capitalize on the publicity–and as a result of being dumped by her boyfriend from the first film–Gracie lets herself be made into the feel-good ambassador of the FBI, helped by the staggeringly hip Joel (Dietrich Bader) and his stylists. The change is not good for the brash Ms. Hart, however, who is soon appearing on morning television and dispensing fashion tips instead of girl-power platitudes. Of course this phase doesn’t last long; some goons out in Las Vegas kidnap Mrs. Congeniality (Heather Burns) and host Stan Fields (William Shatner), prompting Hart, with her intensely angry bodyguard, Sam Fuller (Regina King), to strap on her guns and get back in the game. Her method of operation includes beating up Dolly Parton, defying a sexist FBI bigwig (Treat Williams), and faking cramps. At one point she disguises herself as an old Jewish woman in a wheelchair, and later she’s a Las Vegas showgirl doing Proud Mary at a drag club.Bullock’s good-natured performance recalls the old-school comedic talents of Bob Hope or Barbara Stanwyck; she effortlessly makes Gracie Hart a unique and complex woman who is capable, sarcastic, intuitive, impressionable, and a secretly lonely tomboy. Also a plus is the refreshing lack of a male romantic interest as Hart and Fuller don’t need some handsome guy to ride to their rescue and they aren’t going to let sexual discrimination stop them from getting the job done. |

Drinking with Miss Dutchie $10.99 Drinking with Miss Dutchie is a story about Dutchie, a Black Labrador, and her lasting impact on the life of her owner and narrator, Ed Breslin. In contrast to the typical tale of dog as man’s best friend, Breslin’s is a unique reflection on dog as role model and teacher. While the author struggles with clinical depression and addiction, Dutchie maintains her pure lust for life. Over twelve years, she masterfully and instinctively shows Breslin how to view the world for what it is – and embrace it with full force. Raised in North Philadelphia, the second oldest of twelve children in an Irish Catholic family, Breslin recounts his lifelong struggles with alcoholism and depression, and his exquisitely loving, 30-year marriage to his wife Lynn. Breslin tells us how Dutchie, through her elegant negotiation of the world’s difficulties and upheavals, showed him how to quell his fears, unwittingly modeled how to strengthen his relationships, and encouraged him to live in the present. Marcel Proust wrote: “The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.” Dutchie’s were Breslin’s new eyes, exemplifying for him the nature of altruism, purity and awareness of others. Drinking with Miss Dutchie is a memoir, but it is also a narrative on moving forward, on identifying what matters, and on staying true to it. Dutchie is Breslin’s best self, and his is a story that ultimately describes the incredible power of animals to bring us to our senses. |

Miss Dahl’s Voluptuous Delights: $23.09 A lusciously photographed collection of 100 recipes-indulgent but balanced food that celebrates the simple joys of cooking and eating–liberally spiced with the misadventures and travels that inspired them.World famous model, actress, and writer Sophie Dahl loves food, and in this lush book, she shares secrets from her kitchen in funny stories and favorite recipes for each season. The granddaughter of Roald Dahl and actress Patricia Neal, Sophie lived out her teens and 20s under the public spotlight as the first famous anti-waif model–and then as a full-waif model. Since then, she has left modeling (and dieting) behind in favor of writing and cooking, as she conveys so beautifully here–with wit and humor. In Miss Dahl’s Voluptuous Delights she includes recipes from sophisticated crab and fennel salad, to her dad’s chicken curry, to what she serves her famous musician boyfriend for breakfast. Try her mama’s baked acorn squash and the delicious student-days favorite “Paris Mash,” and don’t even think of skipping a decadent dessert like Chocolate chestnut soufflé. Sophie has a common-sense attitude, and serves up dozens of dishes that celebrate the joy of cooking, serving, and–most of all–eating great food. Original and intimate, Miss Dahl’s Voluptuous Delights is full of wonderful anecdotes and delicious recipes, lush photography, and Sophie’s own whimsical line drawings. |

Driving Miss Daisy [P&S] $16.96 Director Bruce Beresford’s affinity for the subtleties of southern life is apparent in this adaptation of Alfred Uhry’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Starring Jessica Tandy as Daisy Werthan and Morgan Freeman as Hoke Colburn, the film opens in late-1940s Atlanta. Since Miss Daisy is becoming a menace behind the wheel, her son, Boolie (Dan Aykroyd), ignores her protests and hires Hoke, a black chauffeur. When the feisty matron decides to resist necessity and walk to the store, the equally stubborn chauffeur follows her in her car. As he says to Boolie, I used to rassle hogs down to the ground…ain’t nary a hog got away from me yet. But Hoke’s methods are gentleness and patience, and as the years elapse in his ongoing tug-of-war with the temperamental Daisy, she begins to tacitly acknowledge his wisdom. When she expresses annoyance over the demands of the nascent civil rights movement, Hoke points out to the Jewish woman the similarity between the attack on her synagogue and Klan attacks on black churches. But it is only after many years together that they can finally admit to the depth of the friendship they have shared. The two stars give unforgettable performances, and Beresford’s direction is a model of restraint. |
