s'ennuyer. La profession était encore majoritairement réservée aux hommes et le succès s'y mesurait trop souvent à l'aune de la réussite matérielle. Cette jeune femme nourrissait, au contraire, l'ardent désir de défendre le droit à l'égalité pour tous. Au cours du demi-siècle qui a suivi, elle s'est frayé une carrière atypique qui lui a permis de faire avancer les causes qui lui sont chères. Elle propose aujourd'hui un récit inspirant où elle refait pour nous le chemin qu'elle a tracé, sans plan préconçu, en se laissant guider par ses pas, par ses convictionsDe l'amour des étranges chevaux (Poésie)

misogyny of the Playboy mansion, a woman's stolen young adulthood and her journey to self-acceptance, and a rare look inside Hugh Hefner's final days. At just twenty-one years old, Crystal Harris' life changed forever when she attended a party at the notorious Playboy mansion. Picked out of the crowd by Hugh Hefner, she became one of his infamous "girlfriends," attending glamorous Hollywood parties and traveling the world. Yet this seemingly alluring lifestyle had a dark side. Hef controlled his girlfriends with strict rules regarding everything from their hair and makeup to their curfews, and Crystal was forced to compete with other women for her spot in the highly hierarchal system. Living at the mansion, she felt more like a fixture than a resident. She quickly rose to the top, but being Hef's number one girlfriend came at the cost of Crystal's identity outside her role in the Playboy universe. Her fate seemed sealed when Hef surprised her with a marriage proposal she could not imagine refusing. But as Crystal Hefner, she grew increasingly restless to understand who she truly was away from what she saw as Playboy's toxic culture. In ONLY SAY GOOD THINGS, Crystal offers a vulnerable and clear-eyed look at how her experience with Hugh Hefner catalyzed her transformative journey from someone who prized external validation over all else to a person who finally recognizes her true worth. This candid memoir provides a fascinating look behind the scenes at a powerful cultural icon and brand, and an equally empowering perspective on hard-won lessons about who we allow to determine our valueSonnets pour Hélène (Textes littéraires français)
