Sinopsis

Fredrika Bremer's 'The Homes of the New World' is a groundbreaking work of literature that introduces readers to the social and cultural landscape of 19th-century America. Through vivid descriptions of various households and their inhabitants, Bremer provides a unique insight into the lives of ordinary people in New England and the South. Her narrative style is both engaging and thought-provoking, offering a rich tapestry of interconnected stories that reflect the complexity of American society at the time. Fredrika Bremer, a Swedish writer and feminist, embarked on a journey to America in the mid-19th century to explore the concept of freedom and equality in a new world. Her encounters with different families and communities inspired her to document her observations in 'The Homes of the New World'. Bremer's firsthand experiences and keen observations shine through in her writing, making the book an invaluable source for understanding the dynamics of American society during the antebellum period. I highly recommend 'The Homes of the New World' to readers interested in 19th-century American literature, gender studies, and social history. Bremer's work offers a fresh perspective on the diverse experiences of American families and the nuances of societal structures in the United States during a transformative era.

    When Charlene Wittstock married Prince Albert of Monaco in a star-studded wedding watched by millions across the world in 2011, rumours of her getting cold feet and her unhappiness about his love children swirled around the couple.
    Ever since then, the statuesque Olympic swimmer has been in the eye of the paparazzi and the centre of endless tabloid speculation and malicious rumour-mongering. Is the bubbly, down-to-earth South African lonely in glamorous Monaco? Is it a marriage of convenience? What is the status of her health? These are just some of the questions that roil so publicly around her.
    Journalist Arlene Prinsloo sifts fact from fiction in this revealing unauthorised biography of Her Serene Highness Princess Charlene. Prinsloo traces her life from humble beginnings in Zimbabwe, Johannesburg and Durban to the Olympic Games, her jet-set romance with the bachelor prince, a fairy-tale wedding and becoming a mother to twins. At its heart, it's the story of a woman in search of happiness for herself and her family – and also of the beginning of Charlene defining her own space amid the royal protocol.

But that all reached new heights when she was given the opportunity to join the cast of Dancing With the Stars.
