The true story of the Countess Céleste de Chabrillan is a rich and tempestuous tale of an extraordinary woman. Courtesan, countess, best-selling author - the tempestuous true story of a woman far ahead of her time. Born in the gutters of Paris in 1824, Céleste made her name as a dancer in the Parisian dance halls, where it is said she invented the can-can. Then, as an equestrienne at the Paris hippodrome, her daring feats on horseback thrilled the crowds. However, it was as the city's most celebrated courtesan that the young Parisian found genuine fame and fortune.

In the summer of 1972, the open road beckoned best friends, nineteen-year-old Barry Johnson and twenty-year-old Bobby Young. Carrying backpacks with the essentials, staples of Kraft Mac and Cheese, dressed in jeans, Frye boots, with $100 each, they set off from their homes in Massachusetts. And so their cross-country adventure began during a time when the bond of trust between driver and hitchhiker was rarely questioned. Little did they know that this journey would shape their lives in ways they could never imagine.

In March of 1985, Celeste stepped on stage at a bodybuilding competition and went into a state of "non-duality" or what can best be related to as "pure joy." She didn't come out of the state for three months. During that time, nothing in her life was particularly miraculous or contributing to exceptional happiness. She was studying at university full-time, holding down three jobs, training up to two hours a day at the gym and trying to make sleep a hobby. Yet, no matter how stressful her day was, stress did not register as a difficult occurrence.

The original column that this book takes its name from has been lost somewhere in the depths of my office. It's probably just as well, but the gist of the column was: My single blonde friend and I combined our households for a garage sale. While sorting through items, she would hold something up and ask something like: Where did you get this? Fortunately, she didn't add the word monstrosity. And my reply was usually something like: Oh, you remember old what's his name.

In 2008, Celeste Mergens was working with an overcrowded orphanage on the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya, when she learned that menstruating girls sat on cardboard in their rooms for several days each month. This set into motion a simple idea—combining a washable, long-lasting pad with taboo-breaking education-that became a catalyst for an unlikely global movement for equity. Written in short, evocative chapters, The Power of Days tells the story of Mergens's quest to rally a global response to elevate menstrual health.

This book is an honest and vulnerable first-person account of Celeste Edmunds a young woman who was raised by drug addict parents and, at a young age, learned to survive and protect her siblings among rapists and drug dealers. Eventually the state separated the family and Celeste was adopted, alone, into a dysfunctional, fractured home where she was treated, by a sadistic and manipulating mother, as an unwanted outsider.

"Souvent M. Proust me disait : "Quand je serai mort, vous penserez toujours au petit Marcel, car vous n'en trouverez jamais d'autre comme lui." Et aujourd'hui je vois bien qu'il avait raison, comme toujours d'ailleurs. Je ne l'ai jamais quitté, je n'ai jamais cessé de penser à lui ni de le prendre comme exemple." Céleste Albaret.
