Download or read book Curtain Call written by Anthony Quinn and published by Jonathan Cape. This book was released on 2015-01-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a sultry afternoon in the summer of 1936 a woman accidentally interrupts an attempted murder in a London hotel room. Nina Land, a West End actress, faces a dilemma: she's not supposed to be at the hotel in the first place, and certainly not with a married man. But once it becomes apparent that she may have seen the face of the man the newspapers have dubbed 'the Tie-Pin Killer' she realises that another woman's life could be at stake. Jimmy Erskine is the raffish doyen of theatre critics who fears that his star is fading: age and drink are catching up with him, and in his late-night escapades with young men he walks a tightrope that may snap at any moment. He has depended for years on his loyal and longsuffering secretary Tom, who has a secret of his own to protect. Tom's chance encounter with Madeleine Farewell, a lost young woman haunted by premonitions of catastrophe, closes the circle: it was Madeleine who narrowly escaped the killer's stranglehold that afternoon, and now walks the streets in terror of his finding her again. Curtain Call is a comedy of manners, and a tragedy of mistaken intentions. From the glittering murk of Soho's demi-monde to the grease paint and ghost-lights of theatreland, the story plunges on through smoky clubrooms, tawdry hotels and drag balls towards a denouement in which two women are stalked by the same killer. As bracing as a cold Martini and as bright as a new tie-pin, it is a poignant and gripping story about love and death and a society dancing towards the abyss.

Book Synopsis Nature's Final Curtain Call? by : S T Kimbrough
Download or read book Nature's Final Curtain Call? written by S T Kimbrough and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-04-21 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the performing arts, curtain calls transpire when performers return to the stage to be recognized by the audience for their performance. It may seem somewhat strange to speak of “nature’s curtain call,” but I am thinking of those amazing moments when with the passing of seasons Mother Nature presents a stunning performance, so to speak, for which we, the observers, are amazed: the appearance of spring’s flowers, the budding trees of spring, snow-white winter snow, huge flocks of Canadian geese flying south, the filling of dry waterbeds with late spring’s melting snow, the stunning colors of autumn’s leaves, the glorious colors of desert flowers, newborn animals of diverse species, and changing climates across the earth. There are cycles of nature that enable these wonders. The poems in this book address some of the wonders of nature: the seasons, weather, flowers, creatures, and beautiful scenes of nature. In the final section, however, the question is raised as to whether these wonders will survive the devastating effects of climate change, global warming, and other threats to nature. Will humankind awaken to the need of caring for nature?

Book excerpt: A new ghoulish mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of A Ghostly Light featuring Mel Turner, a ghost-whispering contractor. Mel Turner can’t resist the chance to bring the Crockett Theatre, a decrepit San Francisco Art Deco movie palace, back to life. But there’s a catch for Turner Construction: Several artists are currently squatting in the building, and they aren’t the only ones haunting the once-grand halls of the historic theater.… When one of the squatters is found dead, the police department has a long list of suspects to investigate. Meanwhile, Mel and her fiancé, Landon, are remodeling an old house for themselves, and Mel finds being on the other side of a home renovation project more challenging than she expected. When Mel discovers that the former owner of the Crockett Theatre died under mysterious circumstances, and that there just might be a connection to the ghost haunting her own attic, the case takes a new turn—one that could bring down the curtain for the last time.

However, they wouldn't last -- with the advent of in-home television, theater companies found it harder and harder to keep them open. Some were demolished, some were converted, and some remain empty to this day. After the Final Curtain: The Fall of the American Movie Theatre will take you through 24 of these magnificent buildings, revealing the beauty that remains years after the last ticket was sold.

Download or read book Life Lessons from Revelation written by Max Lucado and published by HarperChristian Resources. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the world… How do you react to that thought? Does it make you afraid or nervous? Excited? At peace? Or do you simply try not to think about it? The apostle John was privileged to preview the end of the world in a dream. While in exile on the island of Patmos, he experienced an amazing vision that gave him a glimpse of heaven. He saw the final battle between good and evil. He saw God's justice. He witnessed the assured victory for believers in Christ as all hell broke loose and all heaven came forth. He saw Jesus, born in a manger, now triumphant over Satan. John's description stretches our imagination, fuels our anticipation, and comforts us as we await the final curtain call. As you read, study, journal, and discuss the book of Revelation, watch for these key themes that Max will unpack throughout the book: God has a plan and a future for the world. God will be ultimately victorious over evil. There will be a final accounting for our faith and our lives. There is a better world in store. The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God's Word. Each lesson includes: An opening reflection on the Bible book you're studying. Background information to deepen your understanding of the cultural and historical setting. An excerpt of the text (from the NIV and the NKJV). Exploration questions with plenty of room to write your own thoughts and notes. Inspirational thoughts from Max as well as a closing takeaway for further reflection. The Life Lessons series is ideal for use in both a small-group setting or for individual study.

Download or read book Curtain Call written by Lennox Seales and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we sit back and reflect on significant events, evoke memories of people in our past, assess important aspects of our current lives, and how one man could have played such a transformative role in the journey of so many through life, it is not surprising, in this moment of calm reflection, that we find ourselves inspired to memorialize his remarkable achievements born of a compelling yearning, an insatiable appetite, an incurable drive to live his dreams. Such was a man named Franklyn Vincent Ellison Seales, the natural born son of Francis Seales, a merchant seaman and government employee of Portuguese, English, Scottish and African ancestry and Olive Seales, nee Allen, a homemaker of Portuguese and native Carib Indian stock. He was the youngest of that family of five: three girls and two boys born on 15 July 1952 in the small village of Calliaqua, St Vincent and the Grenadines. We celebrate that he was the first native of the island to graduate from the prestigious Juilliard School in New York City that led him to appear on the Silver screen in Hollywood.
Book Synopsis Michael Jackson Master of Illusion by : Mari Hadley
Download or read book Michael Jackson Master of Illusion written by Mari Hadley and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Jackson was the King of Pop and a noted entertainer, humanitarian, and philanthropist. Michael Jackson was always under the scrutiny of the media when in public. On June 25, 2009, Michael Jackson was pronounced dead from cardiac arrest at approximately 2:26 pm MST at University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) Medical Center. There is so much conflicting information concerning whether Michael was a drug addict or not. Michael Jackson had many trials and tribulations over the past twenty years which have caused him much heartache and pain. The media has ostracized and ridiculed the entertainer whenever possible. He was an entertainer that loved to develop illusions for his stage presentations and videos which "fooled" his audiences. Michael always wanted to have a normal life for him and his children in which they could enjoy the simple things in life without the scrutiny of the public and media. Michael has proven to be worth more in death than in life. With all the publicity for his death, there is still no real physical evidence Michael Jackson is really deceased. Therefore, there is the possibility Michael inadvertently created the "illusion" of his own death.
Book Synopsis The Final Curtain Call by : Don Boone
Download or read book The Final Curtain Call written by Don Boone and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pastor and author, Dr. Don Boone has successfully crafted a thorough, verse-by-verse commentary on the book of Revelation. This is not only an invaluable study guide to all Christians, but it should also be a much sought after resource for pastors. Every individual that is alive today should be very aware of both their own future and the future of all mankind. There should be a sense of great urgency to discover the events in our not-so-distant future so that we can properly prioritize our lives. Concerning this, Dr. Boone writes: "Events are tumbling over one another in such rapid succession that we cannot keep up with the pace in our everyday living. I do not want to date this book by the mention of names; however, I do want all the readers of this book to know that what may have been symbolic in the past could be literal right now. The world is full of FEAR and Terror seems to reign." The book of Revelation is perhaps the most important single book written in all of history. In spite of this, it remains possibly the most unread. Through The Final Curtain Call, Dr. Boone has undertaken a mission to peel away the layers of complexity and perceived mystery. Each verse in Revelation was inspired by the Holy Spirit of God to be written. Yet for almost two thousand years, only the most devout have dared to brave its waters. The time has come for this book to be both read and studied at least as much as the other beloved books of the Bible. It seems that mankind will go to great lengths to read fantasies of outer space and the worlds beyond. Revelation is, in fact, not a fantasy, but an all-encompassing documentary of events both in our past and our future. In it, Jesus commends certain of his past followers for their faithfulness. But he also warns those who would take lightly their positions as sons and daughters of the Most High. Revelation also clearly unveils evil for what it is; a thief that steals and destroys the hope of those that refuse to trust in the "author and finisher" of our faith. Unfortunately, most of humanity remains oblivious to the spiritual battles that are raging all around us. In The Final Curtain Call, Dr. Boone shares with his readers what he has learned over his fifty years of study, service and full-time ministry. You will walk away from reading this book having sensed that you have been privileged to take a long and informative peak behind the curtain. The truth of the Word of God is credited as the final authority and ultimate guide for our short journey through this life. There is no better way to explore a book like Revelation than on a verse-by-verse-tour conducted by a man of Dr. Don Boone's wisdom and dedication to accuracy. May you be truly blessed by ... The Final Curtain Call.
