Book Synopsis Those Who Can't, Teach by : Haresh Sharma
Download or read book Those Who Can't, Teach written by Haresh Sharma and published by Epigram Books. This book was released on with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Those Who Can’t, Teach turns the spotlight on the madcap lives of teachers and students in a typical secondary school in Singapore. As the teachers struggle daily to nurture and groom, the students prefer to hang out and “chillax”. With upskirting and Facebooking, griping and politicking, school takes on a whole new meaning as the colourful characters struggle to prove that those who can, teach. Written by Singapore’s most prolific playwright Haresh Sharma, Those Who Can’t, Teach was first staged by The Necessary Stage in 1990 to critical acclaim. Twenty years later, Sharma revisits this classic to revitalise it for the Singapore Arts Festival 2010, transforming it into a powerful portrayal of the pressures and challenges facing teachers (and students) in schools in the 21st century.
Download or read book Dem Seh written by Owen Ifill and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dem Seh" is a book of stories from my village, Buxton. I come from a village of great tradition and history, and one of its many traditions is its storytelling. We are a predominantly black village; direct descendants of slaves, and so storytelling has always been with us. We have always had a line of great storytellers, or as we say "shit talk artists." The book is a small collection of some of the more popular and hilarious stories. Some are contemporary and others are from the previous generation. This book grew out of a sense of the need for renewal in my village. Buxton suffered through some violent and stressful times a few years ago, and I felt that Buxton needed to laugh again; to laugh at itself again. To celebrate itself again. This book is a gift to Buxton, for Buxton has always given of itself. Part of its proceeds will be donated to social and educational initiatives in the village. I was born in Buxton, Guyana, on the east coast of Demerara, where I received my primary and secondary education. I left for Cuba in 1980, where I completed studies in Medicine in 1985. I returned to Guyana, and after serving out my contract, came to the United States in 1992. I am currently practicing in Primary Care and Addiction Medicine in Brooklyn New York, where I live with my wife and daughter. I have been writing on and off since I was a child and have three previous publications; "Infinite circles," "In flux" and "Godma." All self published.

Book Synopsis The Girls of Slender Means (New Directions Classic) by : Muriel Spark
Download or read book The Girls of Slender Means (New Directions Classic) written by Muriel Spark and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1998-04-17 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Long ago in 1945 all the nice people in England were poor, allowing for exceptions," begins The Girls of Slender Means, Dame Muriel Spark's tragic and rapier-witted portrait of a London ladies' hostel just emerging from the shadow of World War II. Like the May of Teck Club itself—"three times window shattered since 1940 but never directly hit"—its lady inhabitants do their best to act as if the world were back to normal: practicing elocution, and jostling over suitors and a single Schiaparelli gown. The novel's harrowing ending reveals that the girls' giddy literary and amorous peregrinations are hiding some tragically painful war wounds. Chosen by Anthony Burgess as one of the Best Modern Novels in the Sunday Times of London, The Girls of Slender Means is a taut and eerily perfect novel by an author The New York Times has called "one of this century's finest creators of comic-metaphysical entertainment."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dirty-Dirty is runnin’ the game. Fresh out of prison and down for whatever, Anshon is on the grind and ready to roll. Thirsty for street glitz, glamour, and ghetto richness, Anshon never thinks twice about the universal street anthem, ‘‘Mo’ money, mo’ problems.’’ Living life in the fast lane and never learning to ‘‘juice the game slow,’’ Anshon ends up on a downward spiral. What will he do when he can’t be his brother’s keeper anymore; and where will he go when jealousy seems to be taking control? Will he roll over and die, or will his survival instincts run the show? What about when he loses a loved one who begged him to get out of the game? Will he finally listen, chill with his shawtie, and ride off into the sunset, or will he take matters into his own hands? Join Victor L. Martin as he spins a tale that leaves you to wonder, how could a man who has done so much be treated so unjustly?

Book Synopsis The Vietnam War Trilogy by : John M. Del Vecchio
Download or read book The Vietnam War Trilogy written by John M. Del Vecchio and published by Warriors Publishing Group. This book was released on 2017-02-27 with total page 1879 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three classic novels by John M. Del Vecchio about Vietnam, Cambodia, and the aftermath of war. A classic combat novel and National Book Award finalist, The 13th Valley follows the terrifying Vietnam combat experiences of James Chelini, a telephone-systems installer who finds himself an infantryman in the North Vietnamese Army–infested mountains of the I Corps Tactical Zone. Spiraling deeper and deeper into a world of conflict and darkness, this harrowing account plunges Chelini into jungle warfare and traces his evolution from semi-pacifist to all-out, combat-crazed soldier. The seminal novel on the Vietnam experience, The 13th Valley is a classic that illuminates the war in Southeast Asia like no other book. Some reviewers have called For the Sake of All Living Things the most terrifying book they have ever read. This saga follows a rural Cambodian family—father Chhoun; his beautiful daughter, Vathana; and his young son, Samnang, who becomes the Khmer Rouge yothea Met Nang—from the mid-sixties through the escalation of the civil war, into the horrors of the holocaust, and finally to the country’s quest for rebirth. Documenting their story is American Special Forces Captain John Sullivan who served with the Military Equipment Delivery Team, and who has fallen in love with Vathana. Carry Me Home brings the troops back to America—a nation confused and divided by the wars in Southeast Asia. In this poignant epic, Del Vecchio transports a group of soldiers to their final battlefield: the home front. High Meadow Farm, in the fertile hill country of central Pennsylvania, becomes their salvation. In Vietnam they had been brothers in arms. Now, in the face of personal tragedy and bureaucratic deception, they create an even deeper allegiance—one of the spirit and of the land. This is the remarkable story of the veterans’ struggle to find one another and themselves. In its scope, breadth, and brilliance, Carry Me Home is much more than a novel about Vietnam vets; it is a testament to history and hope, to hometowns and homecomings, to love and loss, and to faith and family. It is an inspiring and unforgettable novel about America itself.
Book Synopsis New Perspectives on the Japanese Occupation in Malaya and Singapore, 1941-1945 by : Yōji Akashi
Download or read book New Perspectives on the Japanese Occupation in Malaya and Singapore, 1941-1945 written by Yōji Akashi and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2008-12-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information on the Japanese Occupation of Malaya and Singapore is sparse, and Japanese-language materials are particularly difficult to find because the Japanese military systematically destroyed war-related documents when the war ended. The contributors to this volume participated in a Forum that spent four years locating surviving materials relating to the Occupation of Malaya. The group has three objectives: to collect primary sources, to interview Japanese military and civilian officials who took part in the military administration and people in Malaysia and Singapore who experienced the period, and to publish the results of the studies. Based on interviews with Japanese, Malaysians and Singaporeans who lived through the war years and materials gathered from archives and libraries in Britain, Malaysia, Singapore, USA, Australia, and India, the Forum has produced a number of Japanese-language publications. This book makes available some of their research findings in English. Topics covered include the Watanabe Military Administration, Japanese research activities in Malaya, Japan's Economic Policies, Malayan Communist Party Leaders and the Anti-Japanese Resistance, the Massacre of Chinese in Singapore, Railway Transportation during the Japanese Occupation Period, The Singapore internment Camp for Allied Civilian Women, and the Japanese Surrender. This volume is a revised version of Akashi Yoji, ed., Nippon Senryoka no Eiryo Maraya/Shingaporu (Tokyo: Iwanami Shoten Publishers, 2001). Book jacket.

Book Synopsis One Hundred Years' History Of The Chinese In Singapore: The Annotated Edition by : Ong Siang Song
Download or read book One Hundred Years' History Of The Chinese In Singapore: The Annotated Edition written by Ong Siang Song and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2020-03-12 with total page 873 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its publication in 1923, Sir Song Ong Siang's One Hundred Years' History of the Chinese in Singapore has become the standard biographical reference of prominent Chinese in early Singapore, at least in the English language. This fact would have surprised Song who saw himself primarily as a compiler of historical and biographical snippets. The original was not referenced in academic fashion and contained a number of errors. This annotation by the Singapore Heritage Society takes Song's classic text and updates it with detailed annotations of sources that Song himself might have consulted, and includes more recent scholarship on the lives and times of various personalities who are mentioned in the original book. This annotated edition is commissioned by the National Library Board, Singapore and co-published with World Scientific Publishing.
Book Synopsis Royal Wills in Britain from 1509 to 2008 by : Michael L. Nash
Download or read book Royal Wills in Britain from 1509 to 2008 written by Michael L. Nash and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on Royal Wills since 1780 and aims to take over where the previous ones (in 1775 and 1780) left off. Therefore the period 1509 to 2008 is covered. It aims to uncover the many dilemmas and conundrums they have had to deal with, against a backdrop of Imperial splendor and political strife, society scandals and in later instances, a disintegrating infrastructure. This period covers the wills of Henry VIII, Edward VI and George I, which all sought to divert the accepted rules of succession; the wills of Queen Charlotte and George III, which brought into sharp focus the differences between State and Personal property; and the wills from Prince Albert to the present day (with a few exceptions) which sought to exclude the public from seeing their contents, in devices known as ‘closing’ and ‘sealing up’ the wills. The authority by which the latter was done has been seriously questioned in signal cases in 2007 and 2008. Sources drawn upon include not only the Royal Archives, but the Kilmorey Papers in the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, and the Teck Letters in Wellington College, where Prince Frank received much of his early education. The sealed will of Prince Frank of Teck, the brother of Queen Mary and great-uncle of the present Queen, is the seminal chapter in this study.
