Cher - The Memoir, Part One (Paperback): Cher Cher - The Memoir, Part One (Paperback)
Cher
R494 Discovery Miles 4 940 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The extraordinary life of Cher can be told by only one person … Cher herself.

After more than seventy years of fighting to live her life on her own terms, Cher finally reveals her true story in intimate detail, in a two-part memoir.

Her remarkable career is unique and unparalleled. The only woman to top Billboard charts in seven consecutive decades, she is the winner of an Academy Award, an Emmy, a Grammy and a Cannes Film Festival Award, and an inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame who has been lauded by the Kennedy Center.

She is a longtime activist and philanthropist.

As a dyslexic child who dreamed of becoming famous, Cher was raised in often-chaotic circumstances, surrounded by singers, actors and a mother who inspired her in spite of their difficult relationship.

With her trademark honesty and humour, Cher: The Memoir traces how this diamond in the rough succeeded with no plan and little confidence to become the trailblazing superstar the world has been unable to ignore for more than half a century.

Cher: The Memoir, Part One follows her extraordinary beginnings through childhood to meeting and marrying Sonny Bono – and reveals the highly complicated relationship that made them world-famous, but eventually drove them apart.

Cher: The Memoir reveals the daughter, the sister, the wife, the lover, the mother and the superstar.

It is a life too immense for only one book.

Loud - Accept Nothing Less Than The Life You Deserve (Hardcover): Drew Afualo Loud - Accept Nothing Less Than The Life You Deserve (Hardcover)

The empowering, inspiring, patriarchy-smashing first book by the TikTok and Spotify star Drew Afualo.

Drew Afualo is best known as the internet’s 'Crusader for Women' and is at the head of a new generation of entertainment’s rising stars, with more than nine million followers across her social platforms. She soon realized that men on social media were creating sexist content aimed at disparaging women, and also containing rampant fatphobia, racism, and other forms of bigotry with very real-life consequences. It didn’t take long for her to step into the role of unofficial watchdog for misogyny, and her signature laugh is now recognized as a feminist call to arms.

Loud is part manual, part manifesto and part memoir. It is a summoning cry to rid the internet (and our hearts, minds, and lives) of terrible men and create a space to fight outdated patriarchal ideals. Above all, it makes it clear that behind Drew’s fearsome laugh is a mission and a life philosophy, a strategy for self-confidence from the inside out, and a pathway to once and for all remove men from the centre of how women and fems think about themselves.

Anwar Mc Kay

Against an authoritarian backdrop of Apartheid’s racial discrimination and the legacy of forced removals, Anwar Mc Kay is born into Islam, the youngest of three boys.

Labelled a ‘moffie’ (South African slur for gay), this boy from Bramble Way gets buried alive under the weight of emotional violence targeted at him from members of his own community in Bonteheuwel on the Cape Flats, rendering him invisible and voiceless.

Anwar is Tyra’s cherished last born and she dotes on him. After being abandoned by his father at the age of two, it is his mother Tyra who becomes his only glimmer of hope.  Through the power of a resilient personality and never-say-die attitude against enormous odds, Anwar manages to overcome his childhood descent into emotional disorders.

As destiny would have it, Anwar – who once felt most invisible – married one of South Africa’s most visible and beloved comedians, Marc Lottering, and lives a very public life today.

The Invisible Boy from Bramble Way is a story of hope, inspiration, dignity and the power of the human spirit.

Ina Garten
R824 R680 Discovery Miles 6 800 Save R144 (17%) Ships in 18 - 22 working days

In her long-awaited memoir, Ina Garten--aka the Barefoot Contessa, author of thirteen bestselling cookbooks, beloved Food Network personality, Instagram sensation, and cultural icon--shares her personal story with readers hungry for a seat at her table.

Here, for the first time, Ina Garten presents an intimate, entertaining, and inspiring account of her remarkable journey. Ina's gift is to make everything look easy, yet all her accomplishments have been the result of hard work, audacious choices, and exquisite attention to detail. In her unmistakable voice (no one tells a story like Ina), she brings her past and her process to life in a high-spirited and no-holds-barred memoir that chronicles decades of personal challenges, adventures (and misadventures) and unexpected career twists, all delivered with her signature combination of playfulness and purpose.

From a difficult childhood to meeting the love of her life, Jeffrey, and marrying him while still in college, from a boring bureaucratic job in Washington, D.C., to answering an ad for a specialty food store in the Hamptons, from the owner of one Barefoot Contessa shop to author of bestselling cookbooks and celebrated television host, Ina has blazed her own trail and, in the meantime, taught millions of people how to cook and entertain. Now, she invites them to come closer to experience her story in vivid detail and to share the important life lessons she learned along the way: do what you love because if you love it you'll be really good at it, swing for the fences, and always Be Ready When the Luck Happens.
