The #CivilRightsMovement began long ago, and a new #historicalfiction novel explores the work #EleanorRoosevelt and #CivilRightsLeader #MaryMcLeodBethune did together and separately, from 1927 to 1945. #TheFirstLadies #MarieBenedict #BookReview #Berkley

The daughter of formerly enslaved parents, Mary McLeod Bethune refuses to back down as white supremacists attempt to thwart her work. She marches on as an activist and an educator, and as her reputation grows, she becomes a celebrity, renowned in the Black community, revered by titans of business, and recognized by U.S. Presidents. Eleanor Roosevelt herself is awestruck and eager to make her…

#Resenhamaeliteratura ⁣ Se você também gosta de histórias de guerra, baseadas em fatos reais, não pode deixar de ler A Única mulher, de Marie Benedict, lançamento da @PlanetadeLivrosBrasil.⁣ ⁣ A trama começa com uma apresentação no teatro da jovem austríaca Hedy Kiesler. Dona de uma beleza hipnotizante desperta a atenção de Friedrich Mandl, um poderoso e envolvente comerciante de armas austríaco.⁣ ⁣ Pra proteger seus pais, que são judeus, e a si mesma, aceita se casar com ele, um casamento rápido que logo mostra que o mundo mágico que ela imaginou não existe.⁣ ⁣ Vivendo perigosamente e convivendo com as flutuações de humor do seu marido, a jovem vai aprendendo a "ouvir" um mundo de segredos e conspirações, guardando estes dados, que poderão ser úteis no futuro. ⁣ ⁣ Fugindo deste casamento que se assemelha à uma prisão numa gaiola dourada, Hedy escapa para os Estados Unidos e volta a ser atriz, tornando-se a grande atriz de sucesso, Hedy Lamarr. ⁣ ⁣ Só que em meio ao sucesso, há o remorso de ter fugido sozinha. Paralelo ao seu trabalho com atriz, ela se une à um músico inventor e juntos desenvolvem uma tecnologia de espalhamento espectral que poderia ajudar e muito a marinha americana na guerra. São estas descobertas que revolucionaram os sistemas de comunicação e que deram origem a tecnologias como o wi-fi e o bluetooth. É muito interessante acompanhar suas criações e descobertas, embora para alguém de humana como eu, soem absolutamente incompreensíveis.⁣ ⁣ Me conta, quer ler? Recomendo a leitura!

Bu kitabı okuduktan sonra “Einstein” adını duyduğumda ya da gördüğümde artık aklıma öteki Einstein yani Mileva Mitza Maric gelecek. Mileva’nın, Albert Einstein’in biyografisindeki bir isimden daha fazlası olduğunu anladım! Bilim kişiye insanlığını unutturuyorsa,insan kalbini yok ediyorsa neye yararki.Kitabın başında ikilinin muhteşem zekası beni hayran bıraktı ve aşkları sıradan değildi.Sonra Albert Einstein’in davranışları tam bir hayal kırıklığıydı, en çok neye kızdım bilemiyorum fakat bunca fedakarlık yapan karısına köle muamelesi yapıp yanından değil gerisinden yürütmesi ve evliliklerini devam ettirmek adına hazırladığı antlaşma maddeleri(bilenler vardır, bu maddeleri bir yerde görmüştür ya da okumuştur ve belki de espri konusu yapmıştır😱) akıl alır gibi değil.Böyle entellektüel bir zekanın bir kadını aşağılaması kabul edilemez,özellikle de sıradışı zekaya sahip karısını... Kitap kapsamlı araştırmaların ürünü harika bir kurgu olsa da 1980’den sonra açıklanmış olan Mileva Mitza Maric’in , Albert Einstein’le ve arkadaşı Helene yazıştığı mektuplar referans alınmış. Tabiki Albert Einstein’in hayatını konu alan birçok kaynaktan da yararlanılmış. Okunmaya değer👍 Alıntılar yapacağım, daha sonra yorumlarda olacak, biraz uzun😉 #otekieinstein #ötekieinstein #mariebenedict #kanesyayınları #kanesyayinlari #edebiyat #biyografi #milevamaric #einstein #alberteinstein #okumak #read #book #books #instabook #vscobook #vscobooks #1kitap1fotograf #1k1f #okumahalleri #kitaptavsiyeleri #birkitapokudum https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Ep5o-ph8k/?igshid=17bbmc94mhabh

The Only Woman in the Room is the story of Hedy Kiesler, an Austrian rising star. After a controversial movie debut, she finds find great success in the role of Empress Elizabeth at the theatre. She is quickly noticed by Austrian weapon dealer, Fritz Mandl who pursues her interminably until she accepts to become his wife.

#HerHiddenGenius a novel of #RosalindFranklin by #MarieBenedict #NetGalley #ARCReview Once again, Benedict weaves an intricate story about a woman we should all know about but might not #science #dna #rna #STEM #bookreview #bookstagram #booksta #reading

Release Date: January 25, 2022 Rosalind Franklin has always been an outsider―brilliant, but different. Whether working at the laboratory she adored in Paris or toiling at a university in London, she feels closest to the science, those unchanging laws of physics and chemistry that guide her experiments. When she is assigned to work on DNA, she believes she can unearth its secrets. Rosalind knows…

This is what I did with my weekend! It was so so good! It hold the backstory about Agatha Christie and her husband Falling in Love and falling apart and the 11 days that she disappeared. I couldn't put this book down. I literally read it late into last night and finished it today. It was like reading Agatha Christie herself!! I totally recommend it to all my fellow readers. @MarieBenedict @sourcebooks #instagramreaders #curlupwithagreatbook #mariebenedictauthor #sourcebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CLTbbmFnA0ZfG7LsdHLWaQzFaH-msuG3TXg_Yk0/?igshid=1ws3d4qi3x09q

Hep Einstein'i okuruz, onun basarilarını, buluslarıni biliriz. Bu kez onun gölgesinde kaybolan ilk karısınin hikayesini okudum. Mileva Mitza Marić, Albert Einstein'le evlene kadar, kocasından bile üstün matematik yeteneği olan, cevresindekileri zekasina hayran bıraktiran bir fizikçi. Zürıh'in en seçkin okuluna girmeye hak kazanmış sayılı kadinlardan. Einstein'le aynı okulda ögrenciler ve orada tanışıyorlar. Birbirlerine olan aşkları onlari evliliğe kadar getıriyor. Ve bundan sonra Mileva'nın nasıl Einstein tarafından ötelendiğini, onun için ne zorluklara katlandığını okuyoruz. Kitabı sevgili @mldsbooks ile okumaya karar verdik. Bugün ona da söyledim. Einstein'dan nefret ettim dedim. Erkeklerin dünyasinda, kadın, bilim insanı, bir dahi bile olsa hep ikinci planda kalmaya mahkum galiba. Neyse daha da konuşmayayim. Okuyun sizde Einstein'dan nefret edin 😜😄. . Kitabı bana hediye gönderen @kanesyayinlari'na tesekkür ediyorum. Meldacığima da teşekkür ediyorum. Her birinize mutlu,sağliklı,sevdiklerinizle sıcacık, bol okumali📙📚 bir aksam diliyorum🌠🌙.
