Book Description
The "poignant and hilarious" (Newsday) story of one woman's twelve months of dating anyone -- absolutely anyone -- who asked her outAt some point every woman who's single (and not by choice) wonders whether she's not somehow responsible for her predicament. Is she too choosy? Should she have given that guy with the combover and the mother issues a shot? Maybe three full feet isn't too much of a height difference . . . Maria Dahvana Headley had been there, cherry-picking the men she'd dated based on a variety of criteria, and clearly it wasn't getting her anywhere.The Year of Yes is the hilarious and hopeful account of Headley's quest to find a man she could stand (for longer than a couple of hours). Frustrated by her own ineffective taste, she resolved to leave her love life up to fate, dating anyone who asked her: homeless men, a millionaire, several non-English speakers, a mime, and even two women. And finally, one man whose baggage would have disqualified him in any other year . . . but this was the Year of Yes, when Headley would finally discover what was really important.

I laughed, I cried, I read it again..........2007-08-14
It's hard not to hate someone who appears effortlessly talented, beautiful, and to have found her storybook ending. And yet I couldn't help but love both Maria and her amazing book. Her honesty and insight punctuate the clever and emotional writing, making this a thoroughly enjoyable read. In fact, I loved it so much that as soon as I finished I started over again. And I never do that!
Fabulous fun!.......2007-04-26
Ms Headley, weary of the (I agree, dreadful) world of dating, decides to date any man who asks. She ends up with more bad dates, and we who have had them can all relate, but meets some great guys as well.
I'm surprised that someone her age got jaded so fast - I was around 30 by the time I got *completely* disgusted with dating - but I'm delighted that she shared her experience with the reading public. This is terrific entertainment, wonderful commiseration material for fellow fish in the dating sea, and great advice for those who are truly in the hunt. I hope it gets made into a chick flick, although anyone can relate. Five stars
Boring and Inconsequential.......2007-04-08
I am tired of books woth absolutely no substance, no depth, no consequenses. This book promised to be hilarious but it isn't; there is just nothing funny with a 20 something year old woman who decides to date just anyone.
I know we go through life tainted with prejudice and judgement but come on we do go on judging, and so be it!
This book drones on and on about tons of dates with absolutely no depth and how this young woman questions the blindness of love and feels herself powerful enough to test the latter blindness.
I have to say I do NOT recommend this book to any seriously mature reader unless you want to read absolutely superficial stuff and yes I call this "stuff" since it is NOT literature of good value.
You decide.
Don't jump to conclusions.......2007-02-20
I enjoyed this book thoroughly. Maria Headley's writing is sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, and so are many of the people she observes and situations she gets into. But the best part of the book is the encouragement to be open to other people, not so quick to judge, because you can learn something from absolutely everyone. I loved the account of her train conductor taking her to Coney Island, her surprising interactions with the hated neighbor downstairs and their subsequent mellowing towards one another, and her finding the good in the neighborhood unregenerate Don Juan and accepting him for what he could give, among many other stories.
It occurred to me while I was reading that she might have been fictionalizing as much as James Frye, but the premise is so good and the results so entertaining that I didn't much care. I might have preferred a memoir of this sort from an older woman who had had more experience with the downside of being too picky than a 20-year-old who still has lots of choices, but that is a minor quibble.
This book is garnering negative reviews chiefly from people who either 1) accuse the writer of pretentiousness because she often drops literary references, and often inadvertently makes them feel bad for their own ignorance; or 2) jump to moral judgments because *they* wouldn't do what she did or be as open to experiment as she was. Look, a woman who is well-read would have to artificially *suppress* the literary references--she's not showing off, she's being genuine, and also giving you insight into why she was snobbish about dating literary types before her "Year of Yes." She didn't break up her future husband's marriage: he had been in marriage counseling four times and his wife had already demanded a divorce before they got together. And while I have never come close to getting naked with eight people in one year myself, it was genuinely interesting to hear her impressions, especially as she doesn't claim she was particularly wise about it (see the story about her skeevy classmate) or thrilled with all of the results.
One of the better reasons to read is to vicariously experience the lives of other people and learn something without having to actually suffer all the consequences. What is the point of examining only the work of people who perfectly agree with you? And why read a work that is all about becoming less judgmental, if you cleanly miss the point in order to rush to pass judgment on the book (often without finishing it) or its author?
Clever, Intriguing and Sweet.......2007-02-05
Why is it that when an author is obviously intelligent, negative reviewers immediatley label her work "pretentious"? If you don't get the references, look them up!
I found this book highly entertaining, funny and touching. And I was reminded to be a little more open and accepting of people. To assume the worst a little less often.
A very enjoyable read.
Book Description
Peter Banks is one of rock music's legendary guitarists - probably the best player you have never heard. He was a founding member of the influential group YES, and later the pioneering rock group Flash. In his book BEYOND AND BEFORE Banks talks frankly about the struggle to achieve musical success within early YES. He comments on his contemporaries and peers Jimi Hendrix, Robert Fripp and Pete Townshend, and includes many amusing anecdotes influenced by the exciting, supercharged atmosphere of 'Swinging Sixties' London. Not only is this book a documentation of the formative YES years and a history of the origins of 'progressive rock', it gives an insight into the daily tribulations and survival techniques of a contemporary musician in the late twentieth century. It is a testimonial to dedicated musicians, given by a man who has spent over thirty years as a foot soldier in the motley, shambling, and demoralized army of 'Rock.' Told with wit, insight, perspicacity, and even bigger words that Banks wishes he could spell, BEYOND AND BEFORE is a must for 'prog-rock' enthusiasts.
Customer Reviews:
An Illuminating Tale.......2005-10-07
This book is very enlightening about the early days of Yes and the subsequent career of Peter Banks. It is also kind of poignant when you consider that Banks was essentially the "Pete Best" of the Yes story, and missed out on the fame and fortune that followed his tenure with the band. The rest of his musical career didn't seem to work out so well. Lots of "Spinal Tap" type stories.
The Way it Was!.......2005-07-25
I remember seeing Earth Wind & Fire and thinking to my self, "that guitar looks just like the one Peter Banks guitarist for Yes had." In the book I learned that it was that guitar! The book is as honest as it gets about the way the music business really was. You had no friends and the ones who got the writing credit received the checks in the mail. After Peter covers the Yes period you might want to stop reading about his afterlife but don't. It gets better and shows how artists got screwed by the labels. If you have a friend considering a career in music buy them this book. I recommend that Peter Banks makes friends with the New York state prosecutor.
With all due respect............2005-04-28
The early Yes albums (Yes and Time and a Word) were trully unique. Peter reminded me a bit of Pete Townsend a bit with his stage qualities. However, the music was weak. Yes didn't appear to grow until the introduction of Steve Howe. Things became more melodic. Steve always had a way of coloring the dead spots in songs or between John Anderson's lyrics. Steve brought in more riffs that became integral and embedded into compositions. I've heard Steve say that everyone would Hedge Bets and show their riffs, and these would be developed. Steve has a a few recordings of many of the ideas that were formulated into the next Yes Recordings. It's interesting to hear these. I've also recently learned Chris Squire will be touring this year with the Syn. Unfortunatly, Peter sent a rather bitter memo on his website about it. I feel he may have been treated unfairly in the past and it is good he has a say in his book. I also want to see many more autobiographies of all Yes members. So far, Peter, and Rick Wakeman have the only biographies. Steve did publish a guitar book with snipits of history, but we need more. Yes is a gem.

for true yes fans.......2003-08-27
i just finished it,read it in 3 days ,its really great for a perspective on what became of peter banks and his life,this book is definately not a ripoff,it will bring back memories of rock when it was still great and this guy is a real rocker not a phoney,he really was screwed by the band with malice and should be apreciated and recognized for being one of the founding fathers of real progressive rock,one of the founders of yes and a great musician and performer.im glad i baught the book and was satisfied,i hope he makes some money off this book and my purchase,because its well worth it.now i must buy some of his cds,other than the flash cds i already own.
Book Description
On the fictional morning of June 16, 1904—Bloomsday, as it has come to be known—Mr. Leopold Bloom set out from his home at 7 Eccles Street and began his day’s journey through Dublin life in the pages of James Joyce’s novel of the century,
Ulysses. Commemorating the 100th anniversary of Bloomsday,
Yes I Said Yes I Will Yes offers a priceless gathering of what’s been said about
Ulysses since the extravagant praise and withering condemnation that first greeted it upon its initial publication.
From the varied appraisals of such Joyce contemporaries as William Butler Yeats (“It is an entirely new thing. . . . He has certainly surpassed in intensity any novelist of our time”) and Virginia Woolf (“Never did I read such tosh”), to excerpts from Tennessee Williams’ term paper “Why
Ulysses is Boring” and assorted wit, praise, parody, caricature, photographs, anecdotes, bon mots, and reminiscence, this treasury of Bloomsiana is a lively and winning tribute to the most famous day in literature.
Customer Reviews:
A SLAPDASH COLLECTION OF PEOPLE WITH A HOLIDAY TO SELL.......2006-08-10
no insight into James JOyce or his writings. A lot of space dedicated to the guy who hosts a yearly reading on BRoadway of very brief excerpts from Ulysses AND OTHER UREALTED WORKS, as broadcast on NPR. I now no longer regret having missed these transmissions. IT is obviously a reluctant reading of snippets from the great work which JOyce urged not a word should be dropped. I already cannot bear hearing the Jim NOrton ABRIDGED recording.
If you want insight and commentary into Ulysses, turn to Kenner and the rest. This book is simply an overblown advertisement. Frank McCourt has very little to say. This book is personalities, not perceptions.
Two stars for being of Ulysses even obliquely, but it will join the other self-interested Ulysses related works in a bottom drawer rather than the preciously brief space on the much visited top shelf.
Ulysses is far TOO IMPORTANT to waste time and space on such commercially self-interested works.
Only one literary day has such a celebration like this.......2006-02-07
Joyce wanted his book to be read 'all the years of the nights' meaning all the lifetimes to come. And as Frank McCourt makes clear in his introduction he succeeded more than any other writer in 'immortalizing ' the day of his greatest work, and making it a kind of universal literary celebration. June 16 ,Bloomsday the day that Joyce met the woman who was to be his lifelong companion, mother of his children and finally wife, Nora Barnacle is the day chosen for the action of Ulysses. In these twenty- four hours Joyce will attempt to give us a complete picture of human life .In its eighteen chapters each of which has its own style, color, character, and each of which corresponds to a chapter of 'Odysseus' Joyce will explore and create worlds within worlds. He will too present us with a vast rich gallery of human characters, including the three major ones the young Joycean alter ego Stephen Daedalus, the wandering Jewish everyman Leopold Bloom, and the ur-feminine Molly Bloom whose love life and passion will provide the song of the great final interior monologue concluding with Bloom's proposal and her yes I said I will Yes.
This present volume while focusing on the celebration which is Bloomsday nonetheless provides many insights into the work itself. Isiah Sheffer's explanation of the way the eighteen chapters can be read as a six- six- six thesis antithesis synthesis , or as a three chapter twelve chapter three chapter story of Daedalaus alone Bloom's wandering and the fictional father- son in some kind of combination of meeting , does add yet another little bit of interpretation to my own sense of the work.
But of course Joyce wrote a work which begged and called for interpretation, and 'Ulysses' is the novel which has brought forth reams of academic scholarship, endless interpretation. It has , and here again is Joyce's great cunning, generated new life for itself through its ongoing interpretations and reinterpretations. And here it is like another central parallel work within the work, Hamlet, which Daedalus reads in his own somewhat Freudian way.
The work has a lyric power , an ongoing lilt , and an immense intelligence. In the 'Oxen in the Sun' episode where Joyce rewrites the history of the English language stylistically and in parody, we feel the master in control paring his fingernails above the ordinary world of writers and readers.
I enjoy this small volume as yet another edition to the ongoing library made around the name of this great mastermaker.
A handy guidebook to Bloomsdays & Ulysses' reception.......2004-11-21
I fear that some of this book, issued in advance of the centenary of Bloomsday, has already been dated. Much of the material has been prepared for those needing a warm-up to 16 July 2004. Now that's passed, however, there's much to help the Joycean newcomer to Ulysses. It diminishes the Linati schemata that has caused many to rely too heavily on Homeric parallels. It frees readers by showing that whatever their fears, other actors, critics, and readers have shared them. While I wish it would have offered more of a chapter-by-chapter run down just to set the scene for first-timers, and while it pads the book too much with appendices at the expense of tips needed by novices, it does meet a need for the 'amateur' who seeks out Joyce for enjoyment rather than fulfilling a course assignment--a sure way to deaden many an enticing narrative.
The book offers little of the larger context of Joyce's other literary efforts within which to place Ulysses, but given the compression of even an overview and a few points-of-view within 160 pp., Nora Tully earns praise.
A shame her name comes third after the ubiquitous Frank McCourt (who I admit has a couple of decent insights nonetheless from his brief forward) and Isaiah Sheffer, who muses at length about the NYC Symphony Spaced readings each B-day. These personal encounters with the text, then, prepare for Tully's own skillfully arranged array of comments, mainly from past literati (for copyright reasons?) about the novel. Interspersed are mini-essays, the best of which were Mary Gordon's account of how she teaches the Nausicaa episode (you always find something new when returning to a familiar text: for me, she showed me the benediction-monstrance-Gerty's crotch link in a way I hadn't noticed before!); Tennessee Williams' term paper; a Vanity Fair ranking of thinkers by critics in the early 20c; and Robert Spoo's veiled attack, justifiably deserving to be even less muted, on the copyright abuses by the estate keeping Joyce from entering at last the public domain in Britain and Ireland.
A handy map of Dublin; updates on Joyce websites; recommended books and videos; celebrations of B-Day worldwide; cinematic, fictional, dramatic, and musical tributes: these round out a satisfying collection. I wish a review of the various audio versions appeared, for as this book says, listening to Joyce read well adds the musicality and the aurality that the author, myopic as he was, depended upon to convey meaning from an admittedly daunting pile of print. This aside, this pocket guide deserves credit for once again proffering the sheer reward of navigating Ulysses. It'll present you with a stunningly diverse array of styles high and low, boring and amusing: a book that for once shies away from nothing we humans do, and by its accumulation of the mundane, reaches into the heights and depths of our daily life.
A Necessary Bridge.......2004-05-26
While I approached this book with an ambivalent curiosity, for I have never been able to read more than the first thirty pages of "Ulysses", I find "yes I said yes I will Yes", to be an entertaining, intriguing, even inspiring introduction to Joyce's epic of a single day. It mirrors, reflects and refracts the fragmentary theme of the novel itself.
The text itself highlights and articulates both Joyce's intentions in writing such a monster-masterpiece, and others' reactions to reading it. For the uninitiated, "yes I said yes I will Yes" breaks down the mystery behind the whole Joyce legacy into a readable, comprehensible attempt at purity of language and thought, and how the human mind processes everything it encounters on parallel levels: first, the creation of characters who reflect momentary, fleeting glimpses of existence; then, the interpretation of the tale by assorted artists, writers,scholars, and students alike.
"yes I said yes I will yes" is meticulously edited and written, yet it strikes no poses; it emerges as an easily readable and digestible companion and introduction to Joyce and his machinations. Offering both line drawings and photographs of Joyce and others, this slim volume appraches the "Ulysses" dilemma from multiple directions, containing quotes from such writers as Virginia Woolf, who dismissed the book as fancified rubbish. As "yes I said..." suggests, opinions on "Ulysses" run the gamut, as would be expected of such a literary feat; however, it remains reader-friendly, the ideal way to make the acquaintance of perhaps the most influential modern novel.
The parallels drawn by the editor are equally intriguing and informative. Ms. Tully sheds light on how Joyce's version of the Odyssey anticipated, foreshadowed, and still corresponds other early modernist artistic, literary, and cultural movements. The book balances chapters or sections which introduce new contexts of, or aspects for approaching "Ulysses", followed by varying opinions and ideas about Joyce and his work. "yes I said yes I will Yes" forges a timely, necessary bridge between an author whose work often intimidates many of us, and what that work means today. I read it in a single sitting, several times over, and will prize it as a manageable, palatable reference source.
After absorbing this small book about Joyce, Ulysses, and the relevance of Bloomsday, I can return to Ulysses with a renewed sense of confidence and insight. "yes I said..." is well-packaged, presents appealing visual design and layout, plus it's affordable. I only wish it had been issued in hardback -- the pages on my copy already resemble my cocker spaniel's ears.
Product Description
Mommy and Daddy Are Always Supposed to Say Yes ... Aren't They? is a wonderful book for preschoolers and their parents, with a powerful message that will leave parents, pediatricians, and preschool teachers cheering. Dr. Annye Rothenberg is a child/parent psychologist with 20 years of experience with typical preschoolers and their parents. She knows parents are eager to raise happy children with high self-esteem. But in this two-section book -- one for preschoolers and one for parents -- she shows why and how parents are getting off track ... and often raising children with too much indulgence. As a mother herself, she knows parents don't want to raise self-centered, disrespectful, and angry children. In this book, she guides parents in practical ways that make good sense so they and their children can be confident, empathetic, and content. The children's story will delight preschoolers and teaches them just what parents want them to learn -- why parents can't give in just because preschoolers want them to -- and does it in a story beautifully and colorfully illustrated with warmth and humor by the talented artist Marion Eldridge. The parents' section is insightful, clear, and wise, with lots of take-aways that parents can immediately use to help children feel good about themselves but not become over-controlling. It teaches how preschoolers think, and what are reasonable rules to have. Parents will learn how to work out parenting differences with their spouses. They'll also discover if their child is learning what they want them to about behavior, and if not, what to do about it. Parents will love having the confusing and conflicting parenting theories woven together into something concise and clear. Many examples showing other families experiences will ring true, and the summary at the end will be a wonderful refresher to use in the future. This book will also be of great value to pediatricians, preschool teachers, and mental health professionals.

Expertly written.......2007-08-07
Expertly written by family psychologist B. Annye Rothenberg and colorfully illustrated by Marion Eldridge, "Mommy And Daddy Are Always Supposed To Say Yes...Aren't They?" is a two-section picturebook (one section for preschoolers and one section for parents) that explains just why parents cannot always give in to a child's request. While including a Parents' Guide on when they should say yes, B. Annye Rothenberg also lays out lots of ideas and techniques on how parents can say no to a child's request in a manner that will help the child to constructively and appropriately comply to a denied request. Examples are provided that will clear up parental confusion about dealing with self-centered, disrespectful, or angry children when having to deny a request or refuse a demand. "Mommy And Daddy Are Always Supposed To Say Yes...Aren't They?" would prove a welcome addition to personal, professional, and community library Parenting Skills reference shelves and resource collections.
Great story, different format, useful parent guide.......2007-05-24
I couldn't believe that they captured my 3 year old daughters bad behavior so perfectly... "I don't want pancakes, or french toast, I want waffles, NOW!" We have always read alot of books to her and I have been searching for books to read at bedtime that have a message. I like ones that we can talk about while I'm reading the book. This book is perfect for interaction. The parents guide is concise and full of great information. I've read other child centered books and one major thing I like about the parents guide is that it focuses on key points without being repetitive. I don't want to be misleading the parents guide is 14 pages and the story really is the major focus. Art work in the book is nice. It effectively captures the action and gets the attention of the pre-schooler. I can't wait to get the second in the series.
