Book Synopsis Things to Do Around Piccadilly by : Samuel Charters
Download or read book Things to Do Around Piccadilly written by Samuel Charters and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-01-16 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 70s, noted American author and record producer Samuel Charters often visited London, a city he had come to know and love. Inspired by walking its streets between recording sessions, he began writing down poems in a small notebook. "As the months went by the poems grew. I never could predict just what it was that I had to get down on the notebook's pages. I only knew that it was something that had an overwhelming sense for me of what London was. What I hoped with the poems was to catch some of London's tumult, some of its silences, something of the sense of history that gave its streets so much of their character..." Many years later he asked an old friend, Londoner Martin Colyer, to collaborate on a compilation of the poems, and to give them a visual counterpoint with his photographs of the city now. The result is a book that will appeal to anyone who never tires of London and who appreciates its "proud vulgarity, its often insistent tastelessness, its seediness, and its dismissal of any concern that it should be anything but what it is."

Book excerpt: Fatherland is a bold, ambitious show about contemporary fatherhood in all its complexities and contradictions. Created by Frantic Assembly's Scott Graham, Karl Hyde from Underworld and playwright Simon Stephens (Punk Rock, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time), this daring collage of words, music and movement confronts the complexities and contradictions of contemporary fatherhood. A vivid, urgent and deeply personal portrait of 21st-century England at the crossroads of past, present and future, the play is inspired by conversations with fathers and sons from the writers' home towns in the heart of the country. Tender and tough, honest and true, Fatherland is a vital and necessary show about what we were, who we are and what we'd like to become. The world premiere of Fatherland took place at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester on 5 July 2017 as part of Manchester International Festival. This is a revised version of the original text which coincides with performances in London at the Lyric Hammersmith as part of LIFT 2018.

Book Synopsis Lunch at the Piccadilly by : Clyde Edgerton
Download or read book Lunch at the Piccadilly written by Clyde Edgerton and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2003-10-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his eighth deliciously funny novel, Clyde Edgerton introduces us to the irrepressible Lil Olive, who's recently arrived at the Rosehaven Convalescence Center to recuperate from a bad fall. Lil longs to be back in her own apartment, and since her driver's license doesn't expire until her ninety-seventh birthday, she also longs to get back behind the wheel of her sporty '89 Olds. To pass the time until independence, Lil strikes up some new friendships. Mrs. Maudie Lowe and Mrs. Beatrice Satterwhite, who are laying bets on whether Clara Cochran's glass eye comes out at night. And L. Ray Flowers, the freelance evangelical preacher with fancy white hair who sings his sermons, strums a mean guitar, and aspires to an even higher calling. Keeping a watchful eye on them all is Carl, Lil's middle-aged bachelor nephew with a heart of gold and the patience of a saint. But soon Rosehaven is turned upside down and the outcome is anyone's guess. Lil and the girls steal a car and hit the highway. L. Ray's vision of a national movement to unite churches and nursing homes (Nurches of America) is embraced by the residents. And then there's Darla Avery's dirty little secret, which could spell the end for the visionary preacher. Edgerton looks at the challenges of aging with sympathy, sensitivity, and his trademark sense of humor. Like the bestseller Walking Across Egypt, this is vintage Edgerton: wise, wistful, and laugh-out-loud funny.
