Book Synopsis Goodbye Piccadilly by : Cynthia Harrod-Eagles
Download or read book Goodbye Piccadilly written by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles and published by Sphere. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1914, Britain faces a new kind of war. For Edward and Beatrice Hunter, their children, servants and neighbours, life will never be the same again. Perfect for fans of Downton Abbey and Barbara Taylor-Bradford. For David, the eldest, war means a chance to do something noble; but enlisting will break his mother's heart. His sister Diana, nineteen and beautiful, longs for marriage. She has her heart set on Charles Wroughton, son of Earl Wroughton, but Charles will never be allowed to marry a banker's daughter. Below stairs, Cook and Ada, the head housemaid, grow more terrified of German invasion with every newspaper atrocity story. Ethel, under housemaid, can't help herself when it comes to men and now soldiers add to the temptation; yet there's more to this flighty girl than meets the eye. The once-tranquil village of Northcote reels under an influx of khaki volunteers, wounded soldiers and Belgian refugees. The war is becoming more dangerous and everyone must find a way to adapt to this rapidly changing world. Goodbye Piccadilly is the first book in the War at Home series by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, author of the much-loved Morland Dynasty novels. Set against the real events of 1914, Goodbye Piccadilly is extraordinary in scope and imagination and is a compelling introduction to the Hunter family.

Book excerpt: In this coming-of-age novel, “a treasure trove of good writing and human insight” three friends grapple with romance and women’s suffrage during WWI (The Irish Press). From the author of the Lu Wilmott series, a stunning saga of friendship, ambition, and love. Otis Hewetson is seventeen years old, pretty but unconventional and rebellious. She spends the summer of 1911 on a glorious holiday with her parents, and on a quest for independence. But little does she realize how her new friendships with Jack and Esther will change her life forever. Their paths are destined to cross as they grow from adolescence through to marriage, the fight for women’s rights and the bitter bloodshed of the Great War . . . “It is encouraging when someone like Betty Burton manages against the odds to become a roaring success.” —The Guardian

Book Synopsis Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy by : Raymond Foery
Download or read book Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy written by Raymond Foery and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After an unparalleled string of artistic and commercial triumphs in the 1950s and 1960s, Alfred Hitchcock hit a career lull with the disappointing Torn Curtain and the disastrous Topaz. In 1971, the depressed director traveled to London, the city he had left in 1939 to make his reputation in Hollywood. The film he came to shoot there would mark a return to the style for which he had become known and would restore him to international acclaim. Like The 39 Steps, Saboteur, and North by Northwest before, Frenzy repeated the classic Hitchcock trope of a man on the run from the police while chasing down the real criminal. But unlike those previous works, Frenzy also featured some elements that were new to the master of suspense’s films, including explicit nudity, depraved behavior, and a brutal act that would challenge Psycho’s shower scene for the most disturbing depiction of violence in a Hitchcock film. In Alfred Hitchcock’s Frenzy: The Last Masterpiece, Raymond Foery recounts the history—writing, preprod
Book Synopsis Don't You Know There's A War On? by : Nigel Rees
Download or read book Don't You Know There's A War On? written by Nigel Rees and published by Batsford Books. This book was released on 2014-12-08 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigel Rees presents a nostalgic and witty guide to wartime catchphrases, from the now ubiquitous 'Keep Calm and Carry On' to lesser-known gems such as 'lions led by donkeys'. Following his hugely popular survey of domestic sayings, More Tea Vicar?, Rees returns with a witty and fascinating examination of the catchphrases that saw us through wartime Britain and are still relevant in times of crisis today. Including domestic phrases of the time, propaganda, and slang developed by soldiers abroad, the book describes the provenance and development of these intriguing, quirky and sometimes crude phrases that were born out of times of conflict and have in many cases become part of our language.
