The Girls Bathroom: The Must-Have Book for Messy, Wonderful Women

Product Information

A Bathroom Book for People Not Pooping or Peeing But Using the Bathroom as an Escape will be waiting in the bathroom like a beacon for anxious readers looking to feel calm, confident, and less alone. Biz gerçek insanların tuvaletle ilgili asıl dertleri, "acaba bu sifon gerektiği gibi çalışacak mı?" veya "buraya şimdi bırakırsam ve o gitmezse ne yaparım?" yahut "Ya tuvalet tıkalı çıkar da bütün banyoyu bir güz öğleden sonrası gibi kahverengiye boyarsa?" iken, bunların dertleri tabii dandik dandik partilerdeki anksiyeteleri filan fıstık. Joe da aslında daha geçen akşam gittiği partideki tuvalette, o aynadan kokaini çeken dalyo sanki kendi değilmiş gibi, hüzünlü hüzünlü dandikliği, mimik oynatmayan komikliği yazmış işte.

Comedian Pera and illustrator Bennett has the tendency to seek refuge in the bathroom – mostly to get a moment of respite from work and just have a few moments of quietness – or to politely end conversations. So, they decided to create a functional meditative guide to help people who suffer from social anxiety in a comedic style.A very good example for my argument is the new novel by Ian McEwan called "Nutshell", where an unborn child is given all the abilities to think and feel what he experiences inside the womb and well outside with a most powerful ability to verbalize his reactions. If the reader is not willing to agree with the deal that this fiction could be worthwhile reading despite all his obvious disbelief that this is of course not possible then the novel rests on the bookshelf unread and untouched. If I think about it in general terms there is a well-know playwright who did exactly the same, breaking up the willing suspension of disbelief all the time. And that is Berthold Brecht, who wanted to have his theatre audience think first about the communist theory lying behind the action rather than identify emotionally with the characters in the plot. i think being at an event so uncomfortable that you have to hide in the bathroom qualifies as "spooky" In a way I as a reader must conclude a hidden treaty, a tacit agreement, with the author that during the course of my reading time my imagination is intimately intertwined and linked with his or hers. If I think through this assumption than the author is only totally free at the very moment where he or she sets the scene and puts his/her characters in place like a set of 32 figures at a chess game, but then the dynamics of the ongoing action takes hold of the initial (free) idea and forces the author and the reader forward without a "deus ex machina" at every corner making sudden and improbable changes in the ongoing plot.

All in all, I rate this book five stars. I think we all, social problems or not, seriously need a book like this, right now in our lives. The pandemic has ruined things for us, that's for sure. We barely socialize anymore. Some of us are staying in our houses. Some of us are doing online school. Some of us have lost loved ones. Joe Pera goes to the bathroom a lot. And his friend, Joe Bennett, does too. They both have small bladders but more often it’s just to get a moment of quiet, a break from work, or because it’s the only way they know how to politely end conversations.

Lan bir de şu kitabın (kitap diyorum ama kitap da değil yani, burada kitabı primat gibi düşünün. Plesiadabiforme da primat, Rob Halford da gibi.) Türkçe'sini kimse ekleme gereği bile duymamış ya Goodreads'e. 2021 Aralık'ta çıkmış ama kimse de alıp, bakıp yazacak kadar sallamamış. Sağolsun Mahirzade'den rica ettim de o ekledi. Adama da rezil etti beni Joe... Ulan bir alan ben miyim şunu koca ülkede? Tek geri zekalı olarak beni mi buldunuz? Bir de hayvan gibi övülmüş, yarın yok gibi övülmüş, evrenin sırrını vermiş gibi övülmüş. Zevksiz pezevenkler, basmış yıldızı, vermiş puanı! Siz anlaştınız da mı geldiğiniz koçum, ne ayaksınız? ŞİRKET MİSİNİZ ASLANIM SİZ? Beni salon beyefendiliği çizgimden çıkartacak mısınız lan zorla? Oğlum bak siz bilmiyorsunuz beni, tersim pistir benim...

I kind of can't even describe it to you, really. If you like people, and long for the simplicity of a bygone era, and are sometimes (or all the time) shy, and bean arches are something you could spend between 10 minutes and a year's worth of time on, interest wise, you're in the right place. You're not going to laugh out loud (probably—except maybe for the Jane Goodall jokes). But you just might smile—even a half-smile—because it reminds you of human oddities. And maybe because it'll remind you that you're not alone in needing this oasis from reality.And whether you decide to get out of the bathroom or stay in, you're safe in this bathroom. You don't have to worry. Life will still be life. The cozy comedy of Joe Pera meets the darkly playful illustrations of Joe Bennett in A Bathroom Book for People Not Pooping or Peeing But Using the Bathroom as an Escape, a funny, warm, and sincere guide to regaining calm and confidence when you're hiding in the bathroom. Heh-heh, guess who won a partial ARC of this beloved new book coming soon? That's right, folks. Finally, we can get a book discussing the bathroom situation!

Wilder wants his audience to identify with the two main characters, a young woman called "Emily Webb" and a young man called "George Gibbs" are the secret heroes, the examples of a normal life here on earth. Nothing extraordinary, nothing special of course. This attitude in a play is of course rather new because previously plays showed extraordinary characters, whether tragic of rather comic beginning with King Oedipus, to Hamlet, King Lear, Othello, Macbeth, a Long Journey into Night, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Death of a Salesman (Willy Lowman!) as a possible exception. Hyperbole and a Half: Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened by Allie Brosh Joe Pera goes to the bathroom a lot. And his friend, Joe Bennett, does too. They both have small bladders but more often it's just to get a moment of quiet, a break from work, or because it's the only way they know how to politely end conversations. The fact that novels were given titles before chapters was of course a wide-spread and common tradition at the beginning of the novel as a fictitious piece of writing where the omniscient narrator intervened at will and with great liberty in his or her own narrative context telling what the reader should think and feel at any time. Kitap, şu anda bilmem nerede bir tuvalettesin, gözünü kapat, rahatla, olmadı bi duş al demek için yazılmış, en az Joe Pera'nın kendisi kadar komik olmayan ve son derece basit ve önemsiz tespitleri arka arkaya sıralayıp üzerine iki üç resim çiziktirerek cool takılan bu yeni nesil Amerikan havalı, çakma entelektüel, jointten beyni erimiş lümpen yarı ünlü tayfanın bok yemesi. Arada da daha önce iki kez nişan yüzüğünü klozete atıp sifonu çektiğini yazarak cayır cayır yanan sınıf kinimi harladı sağolsun. Umarım kendisini markalı markalı giyilebilir teknolojik ıvır zıvırı ve cebindeki sadece yüz dolar nakiti (çünkü kesin apple pay falan kullanıyordur götüm, "çok fazla nakit" taşımıyordur) için bıçaklarlar New York sokaklarında da, devamını falan yazmaya niyetlenmez daha.Then De Botton has another strategy to cancel the treaty between his readers and his fictional text disrupting the willing suspension of disbelief. Whenever he feels like interfering in his so-called novel he does so in paragraphs of their own in italics. Thus one can decide to read the "novel" only and discard his authorial thoughts about the action of only read the passages in italics and learn what the author's basic theory about marriage is like, which are not contradictory and irrational and opaque as real life mostly is I am afraid. A Bathroom Book for People Not Pooping or Peeing but Using the Bathroom as an Escape is a graphic novel written by Joe Pera and illustrated by Joe Bennett. It is a delightful and introspective look into social anxiety and the safe haven of escape that the space of a bathroom provides. So they created a functional meditative guide to help people who suffer from social anxiety and deal with it in this very particular way. Although, it's a comedic book, the goal is to help these readers: Seth Meyers ve Conan'dan tanıdığımız, Amerikan Late Night Show ekolünden komedyen Joe Pera da, çok post-modern bir dandik olduğundansa demek- "e benim neyim eksik?" diye diye yazmış bunlardan bir tane daha. Kapı tokmağı kadar zekaya sahip, dandik liberal Birleşik İlletler kuşak da kendini yırta yırta, atleti donu sıyırıp kitabın üzerine fırlata fırlata okumuş okumuş övmüş, duramamış bir daha övmüş kitabı. Biz de yüz küsur sayfa boyunca, Amerikalı mini celebritylerin dandik ve önemsiz dertlerine maruz kalıyoruz sayesinde. Çizimleri de Codemy Central ve Adult swim'den tandığımız Joe Bennett yapmış ki keşke yapmasaymış.
