Gold medal winner in the 'Independent Spirit' category of the Independent Publishers Outstanding Book of the Year Awards 2016 "I was fifteen." "I never saw him again." "They chanted after me, 'Oscar the Grouch, Oscar the Grouch." Bringing together the voices of males and females of all ages, the stories in this collective graphic memoir reflect real life experiences of sexual abuse, violence and harassment. Each experience is brought to life by Maria Stoian's exceptional artwork. Her unique and varied styles powerfully reflect the tone and mood of the different stories and in just a few pages express the complex emotions felt by victims of sexual abuse. Covering acts such as sexual violence, public sexual harassment, domestic abuse and child abuse, this is a reminder for survivors that they are not alone and a call for all of us to take action. The stories clearly show that assault of any type is not an honour bestowed on anyone. It is not a compliment.

It's stupid because it pretends we can stop being men. It's wrong because it insists we stop being men. You can be a man and be successful at a relationship. If you have, against all hope and fate, found a woman you want to keep in your life through legal and socially acceptable means, this book will give you advice and strategies that go a long way to let her know she is important without requiring you to sacrifice being a man. We're guys, we like being guys, and there is nothing wrong with that. It is, however, time to stop acting like a 12 year old boy because, and think about it, do you really want to be with a woman who is willing to or wants to be with a 12 year old boy? This doesn't mean we have to grow up, it means we have to man up. There is a difference and this book will help you with that difference through simple and straightforward strategies and plans. Men, it's time to step up and be a real man. It's time to learn the Art of the Compliment.

This book analyzes compliments and compliment responses in naturally occurring talk-in-interaction in German. Using Conversation Analytic methodology, it views complimenting and responding to compliments as social actions which are co-produced and negotiated among interactants. This study is the first to analyze the entire complimenting sequence within the larger interactional context, thereby demonstrating the interconnectedness of sequence organization, turn-design, and (varying) function(s) of a turn. In this regard, the present study makes a novel contribution to the study of talk-in-interaction beyond German. The book adds to existing work on interaction and grammar by closely analyzing the functions of linguistic resources used to design compliment turns and compliment responses. Here, the study extends previous Conversation Analytic work on person reference by including an analysis of inanimate object reference. Lastly, the book discusses the use and function of various particles and demonstrates how speaker alignments and misalignments are accomplished through various grammatical forms.
