Book Synopsis Night butterflies of the silver screen by : Artur Friedberg
Download or read book Night butterflies of the silver screen written by Artur Friedberg and published by New Generation Publishing. This book was released on 2015-06-07 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the first glance the novel could have been classified as a thriller, with suspense and sensual plot that at least partly is set in an environment of soft porno movie production in London, at the time of end of 1980s, including elements of mafia and IRA activities. Nonetheless, there was cleverly 'smuggled' a great deal of information about the work of cameraman, as well as of director while rehearsing with the actors or carrying out shooting of the movie. Further on, it entertains with real and anecdotic information about the cinematic environment. Besides, the novel is bringing a spectrum of information about writing a script for a historical movie and development of the concept of its realization. While doing so, it is also building up a reflective view over 15s century French poet Francois Villon; his personality and highly original oeuvre. The main thread of the contemporary action of the novel drifts towards the historical one, and in a way, they become tragically connected.

Download or read book In Arabian Nights written by Tahir Shah and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2007-12-26 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tahir Shah’s The Caliph’s House, describing his first year in Casablanca, was hailed by critics and compared to such travel classics as A Year in Provence and Under the Tuscan Sun. Now Shah takes us deeper into the heart of this exotic and magical land to uncover mysteries that have been hidden from Western eyes for centuries.… In this entertaining and penetrating book, Tahir sets out on a bold new journey across Morocco that becomes an adventure worthy of the mythical Arabian Nights. As he wends his way through the labyrinthine medinas of Fez and Marrakesh, traverses the Sahara sands, and tastes the hospitality of ordinary Moroccans, Tahir collects a dazzling treasury of traditional stories, gleaned from the heritage of A Thousand and One Nights. The tales, recounted by a vivid cast of characters, reveal fragments of wisdom and an oriental way of thinking that is both enthralling and fresh. A link in the chain of scholars and teachers who have passed these stories down for centuries like a baton in a relay race, Shah reaches layers of culture that most visitors hardly realize exist, and eventually discovers the story living in his own heart. Along the way he describes the colors, characters, and the passion of Morocco, and comes to understand why it is such an enchanting land. From master masons who labor only at night to Sufi wise men who write for soap operas, and Tuareg guides afflicted by reality TV, In Arabian Nights takes us on an unforgettable journey, shining a light on facets of a society that are normally left in darkness.

In his absence, his wife, Piper, turned to his brother Carter for support. Now, she must choose between them—and Carter will stop at nothing to have her. Into this family torn apart by jealousy, greed, and clan loyalties comes a mysterious little girl. Maggie, a battered child with amnesia, shows up on the Addington's front porch and instantly bonds to Sadie, Piper, and Grayson’s cripplingly shy toddler. When Maggie runs away and takes Sadie with her, the warring brothers must team up to search for them. Then the real horror begins. Sadie is trapped in the rocks out of her father's reach beneath a dam about to explode. Grayson will have to stand there and watch her drown ... unless the child called Maggie is much more than she seems.

If you enjoy rich, believable real-life characters, ever-tightening tension, and a breath-taking surprise ending--coupled with Hammon’s trademark dusting of “the unexplainable”, When Butterflies Cry will keep you turning pages far into the night.

Book Synopsis Nabokov's Fifth Arc by : J. E. Rivers
Download or read book Nabokov's Fifth Arc written by J. E. Rivers and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his autobiography Speak, Memory, Vladimir Nabokov compared his life to a spiral, in which “twirl follows twirl, and every synthesis is the thesis of the next series.” The first four arcs of the spiral of Nabokov’s life—his youth in Russia, voluntary exile in Europe, two decades spent in the United States, and the final years of his life in Switzerland—are now followed by a fifth arc, his continuing life in literary history, which this volume both explores and symbolizes. This is the first collection of essays to examine all five arcs of Nabokov’s creative life through close analyses of representative works. The essays cast new light on works both famous and neglected and place these works against the backgrounds of Nabokov’s career as a whole and modern literature in general. Nabokov analyzes his own artistry in his “Postscript to the Russian Edition of Lolita,” presented here in its first English translation, and in his little-known “Notes to Ada by Vivian Darkbloom,” published now for the first time in America and keyed to the standard U.S. editions of the novel. In addition to a defense of his father’s work by Dmitri Nabokov and a portrait-interview by Alfred Appel, Jr., the volume presents a vast spectrum of critical analyses covering all Nabokov’s major novels and several important short stories. The highly original structure of the book and the fresh and often startling revelations of the essays dramatize as never before the unity and richness of Nabokov’s unique literary achievement.
Book Synopsis The Silver Dragon of Tinseltown by : Jordan Riley Swan
Download or read book The Silver Dragon of Tinseltown written by Jordan Riley Swan and published by Jordan Riley Swan LLC. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What better place for a silver dragon than the silver screen? Being a dragon rider has a lot of privileges, but longevity isn’t one of them. If the jocust beetles or the whiptail wyverns or a long fall from a great height didn't get them, the clock always would. The last thing Oscar Merrick wants is to delay his government-mandated retirement, but when his friend Jimmy comes to him with an outrageous idea to make the first talkie with an actual dragon in it, Oscar can’t resist his friend’s starry-eyed pleading or his dragoncoat’s bubbling excitement. After all, a few weeks’ delay in Baltimore before heading to the mines of West Virginia won’t be the end of the world, right? With the entertainment industry shifting from movies to talkies, silver screen star Scarlett Owens can no longer hide her deep voice or her Appalachian accent. Dropped by her agent and faced with retirement, Scarlett jumps at the chance to act in a new talkie—even if the crazy director wants her to star alongside a frightfully scary metal dragon. Once on set, Oscar and Scarlett find themselves pushed together in ways they never expected—and not minding it nearly as much as each would have thought. Can the duo produce a successful talkie, and also use it to keep them both from their all-too-early retirements? Or will industry jealousies and salacious secrets from their pasts force them apart forever?
