Book excerpt: "High in the hills of Valencia, a forgotten house guards its secrets. Untouched since Franco's forces tore through Spain in 1936, the whitewashed walls have crumbled, and the garden, laden with orange blossom, grows wild. Emma Temple is the first to unlock its doors in seventy years. Emma is London's leading perfumier, but her blessed life has taken a difficult turn. Emma's free-spirited mother, Liberty, who taught her the art of fragrance making, has just passed away. At the same time, Emma has separated from her long-time lover and business partner, Joe, whose baby she happens to be carrying. While Joe is in New York trying to sell his majority share in their company, Emma, guided by a series of letters and a key bequeathed to her in Liberty's will, decides to leave her job and travel to Valencia, to the house her mother mysteriously purchased just before her death. Emma makes it her mission to restore the place to its former glory. But for her aging grandmother, Freya, a British nurse who stayed in Valencia during Spain's devastating civil war, Emma's new home evokes memories of a terrible secret, a part of her family's past that until now has managed to stay hidden. With two beautifully interwoven narratives and a lush, atmospheric setting, The Perfume Garden is a dramatic, emotional debut that readers won't soon forget"--

Download or read book Cavern After Hours written by Barry Cohen and published by Authorhouse UK. This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most books about the 1960's music scene focus on the ones who made it. Those that went on to be household names and spoke for a generation. But what about the epic fails? The bands and groups of lads who were inspired by the first wave who made it big? The ones whose very effort while not making it big was still a success of sorts in a class-bound Britain? Their story is worth telling too. Cavern After Hours is my story: an affectionate and amusing look-back on the lives and loves of a bunch of young working class kids on the make in Liverpool. Making music, making waves, and trying to make the big time. Boys, even a few girls who wanted to play the Cavern just like The Beatles had only a couple of years before Those boys and girls also secretly dreamed of going on to take the world by storm. Some did, most didn't. But we all tried like hell just the same. Times where changing in stuffy old post-war Britain. Cavern After Hours charts how my Hebrew teacher, who also just happened to be lead guitarist with early Merseybeat group The Tabs, taught me more about the guitar than the Torah, it was this guy who fired up my school boy dream to play the now world famous Cavern club Liverpool. Cavern After Hours sets the scene for the brief moment when Liverpool took centre stage in Britain, and then the world Cavern After Hours gives a real feel of what it was like to be a struggling young musician in a Beatlemania Liverpool once the dust had settled and the scene had moved on a little. Cavern After Hours follows my personal journey from young kid to young adult via the momentous events and culture of the 1960s Cavern After Hours takes place at a time when you were dead posh if your house had a phone and you were dead, dead rich if you'd ever been on a plane. Yes there were times not so long ago when you could go for weeks on end and never speak to anyone who had been to an airport let alone on a plane. Those time were in fact the amazing and fantastic 1960's.

Book Synopsis Selling the Sixties by : Robert Chapman
Download or read book Selling the Sixties written by Robert Chapman and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was it a non-stop psychedelic party or was there more to pirate radio in the sixties than hedonism and hip radicalism? From Kenny Everett's sacking to John Peel's legendary `Perfumed Garden' show, to the influence of the multi-national ad agencies, and the eventual assimilationof aspects of unofficial pop radio into Radio One, Selling the Sixties examines the boom of private broadcasting in Britain. Using two contrasting models of pop piracy, Radios Caroline and London, Robert Chapman sets pirate radio in its social and cultural context. In doing so he challenges the myths surrounding its maverick `Kings Road' image, separating populist consumerism from the economic and political machinations which were the flipside of the pirate phenomenon. Selling the Sixties includes previously unseen evidence from the pirates' archives, revealing interviews and an unrivalled selection of rare audio materials.
