Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of neoliberal ideology’s ascendance in 1990s and 2000s British politics and society through its effect on state-supported performance practices Post-Thatcher, British cultural politics were shaped by the government’s use of the arts in service of its own social and economic agenda. Restaging the Future: Neoliberalization, Theater, and Performance in Britain interrogates how arts practices and cultural institutions were enmeshed with the particular processes of neoliberalization mobilized at the end of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first. Louise Owen traces the uneasy entanglement of performance with neoliberalism's marketization of social life. Focusing on this political moment, Owen guides readers through a wide range of performance works crossing multiple forms, genres, and spaces—from European dance tours, to Brazilian favelas, to the streets of Liverpool—attending to their distinct implications for the reenvisioned future in whose wake we now live. Analyzing this array of participatory dance, film, music, public art, and theater projects, Owen uncovers unexpected affinities between community-based, experimental, and avant-garde movements. Restaging the Future provides key historical context for these performances, their negotiations of their political moment, and their themes of insecurity, identity, and inequality, created in a period of profound ideological and socioeconomic change.

Download or read book The Julian Barnes Booker Prize Finalist Collection, 3-Book Bundle written by Julian Barnes and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-12-06 with total page 1060 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Julian Barnes, recipient of the 2011 Man Booker Prize, is one of our most highly regarded novelists. In this collection of three novels spanning his career, we see the broad range of his imagination and literary skill. Barnes’s third published novel, brought him worldwide acclaim and was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. “A high literary entertainment” (The New York Times) Flaubert’s Parrott is, among other things, a piercing glimpse at the nature of obsession and betrayal, both scholarly and romantic. Barnes’s second shortlisted novel, England, England, is a sly, a satiric invention, in which a visionary tycoon attempts to replicate a jolly old England that probably never really existed: Robin Hood’s men are genuinely merry and the royals all behave themselves impeccably, until, of course, everything begins to go horribly wrong. Finally, Arthur & George re-creates late-Victorian Britain, in which the fates of two vastly different men become entwined, one seeking vindication in a world that looks askance at his origins, the other creating the world’s most famous detective, while keeping his own secrets.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • BOOKER PRIZE FINALIST • From the bestselling author of The Sense of an Ending comes an “extraordinary … first rate” novel (The New York Times Book Review) that follows the lives of two very different British men and explores the grand tapestry of late-Victorian Britain. As boys, George, the son of a Midlands vicar, and Arthur, living in shabby genteel Edinburgh, find themselves in a vast and complex world at the heart of the British Empire. Years later—one struggling with his identity in a world hostile to his ancestry, the other creating the world’s most famous detective while in love with a woman who is not his wife—their fates become inextricably connected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apex Blues chronicles the extraordinary lives and musical legacies of two generation-spanning Jazz clarinet virtuosos: Jimmie Noone Sr. and his son Jimmy Noone Jr. Jimmie Noone Sr. rose to fame in the 1910s New Orleans French Quarter jazz scene, forging his iconic ‘Sweet Lorraine’ style during the dawn of the genre. Later, his son Jimmy initially made waves as a San Diego local musician before feeling called to follow in his father’s footsteps. He set out to revive his dad’s New Orleans Jazz sound and mentorship. As the author witnesses firsthand, Jimmy exceeds even his father’s musical heights through raw talent and relentless dedication to his craft. In his final days, he completes his quest: to honor Jazz history by propelling his father’s sound into the future. Jimmy cements the Noone legacy, ensuring the nation remembers what sublime Jazz can be. Spanning generations, geographies, and evolutions of musical style, Apex Blues captures how two clarinet greats shepherded Jazz from regional obscurity into an acclaimed American art form.

Download or read book My Carpet of the Rainbows written by Shrini Pal Zaheer and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Carpet of the Rainbows is a lyrically narrated classic family saga replete with its own share of trials and tribulations, aspirations and achievements. It is a tale of three women of three generations; Lucie, Eva and Rosana and their boundless quest for elusive love and home, which is unique as well as universal. A wide range of well fleshed-out characters, from an American singer or a Portuguese soldier to a rustic, homeless Indian child-labour or a coin-eyed businessman, illuminates the stage. Even the time and space take part as characters. Golden Goa, dreamy Darjeeling, serene Shantiniketan and history of colonialism are intricately woven in the texture of the story. Travelling through a labyrinth of human emotions this charming novel unfurls the whole spectrum of human relationships and unravels the mystery of human characters, behaviours and definitely leaves a deep impact on the readers. Written with an astoundingly easy flow, the words waltz across the pages in a mesmerising style. There are sweet, smiling similes, metaphors, and sour, pungent pun or alliterations on every page. The narrating style of rewind and fast forward in Book 3 is quite unique. Soft shadows of lyrics and bright sparkles of one-liners (I was by his side, like the pause following a word. Notes make notables.) make the reading an enjoyable, unforgettable experience.

This book was released on 2012-08-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engrossing examination of the science behind the little-known world of sleep. Like many of us, journalist David K. Randall never gave sleep much thought. That is, until he began sleepwalking. One midnight crash into a hallway wall sent him on an investigation into the strange science of sleep. In Dreamland, Randall explores the research that is investigating those dark hours that make up nearly a third of our lives. Taking readers from military battlefields to children’s bedrooms, Dreamland shows that sleep isn't as simple as it seems. Why did the results of one sleep study change the bookmakers’ odds for certain Monday Night Football games? Do women sleep differently than men? And if you happen to kill someone while you are sleepwalking, does that count as murder? This book is a tour of the often odd, sometimes disturbing, and always fascinating things that go on in the peculiar world of sleep. You’ll never look at your pillow the same way again.
