...much of A Life Apart, the links between her story line and that of her maker are tenuous, leaving the reader at a loss as to how these two interrelate. Only in the book's second half, when Ritwik is living in London illegally, working part-time as a male prostitute and looking after the elderly, incontinent Anne Cameron in exchange for free lodging, do their narratives' symbiotic pas de deux finally become clear. Ritwik and Cameron's relationship forms the book's redemptive core, with Cameron's tragic family history intertwining with the story of Gilby...
Shaunti Feldhahn, the author of The Male Factor: The Unwritten Rules, Misperceptions, and Secret Beliefs of Men in the Workplace (Broadway), takes a different tack. Feldhahn, a syndicated columnist, has surveyed and interviewed more than 3,000 men, including many C-level executives, granting them anonymity in exchange for frank boy talk. Among her findings: men are better able to compartmentalize what she calls "Work World" and "Personal World." Men report that "at work, the personal world goes away."

Fuqua directed Denzel Washington to an Oscar and Hawke to a nomination in Training Day, and this movie feels very much like a return to that material, but with add-ons, specifically a third male lead.

Martine (Kristen Stewart) spins on her heel, lights on Gordy (Eddie Redmayne), the first male she spots in her age range, and offers to go off with him instead. Maybe there's a party, or a festival across the river - it's all a bit unclear - but their "date" begins by hopping into Gordy's old convertible and heading for what we presume...
Depending on who you are and where you stand, sex and citizenship can be inextricably linked. But first, we need to define what we mean by “sex”—if we mean, for example, physiological factors characterizing one as male or female, then we can think about the ways in which women might experience national belonging differently from men. The fact that women had limited access to the vote until suffrage was granted in 1920, that until quite recently women could not have their own credit lines without the approval of their husbands...
