Through his various professional guises - as poetry editor at Picador Macmillan, professor of poetry at the University of St Andrews, and major prize-winning poet - no one is better placed to grant this 'insider's perspective'. For all those intrigued by the inner workings of the art form and its fundamental secrets, The Poem will surprise and delight.

When it comes to Adam, the veterinarian with a talent for set design and an infuriating knack for winning over Miranda’s dog, the lady doth protest too much.

Download or read book Stealing Benefacio s Roses written by Martín Prechtel and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the acclaimed Secrets of The Talking Jaguar and Long Life, Honey in the Heart, this is an expansive, lyrical novel in the tradition of indigenous oral storytelling. Based on the author's many years of living in a Guatemalan village, Stealing Benefacio's Roses interweaves dramatic recountings of village life and the political horrors of civil war with lyric retellings of sacred Mayan myths. The story shifts expertly from timeless, with archetypal characters like Raggedy Boy and the goddess known as the Water-Skirted Beauty, to timely in the book's striking first-person narrative set in the 1980s. Prechtel shows how ancient myths can become a part of life for everyone and help nurture spiritual survival in the modern world. Though it comes third in sequence with the author's other two books, Stealing Benefacio's Roses also stands on its own as a classic work of spiritual seeking and adventure.

Download or read book Multiple Sclerosis Coping with Complications written by Barry Farr, MD and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-06 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's no miracle cure for multiple sclerosis. But there are ways to reduce its negative impact. What better source than a physician who battled MS as a patient for 24 years? Unlike the "cure for MS" books published for decades (none yet deemed valid by the scientific community), this one aims to help patients deal with the reality of chronic complications of MS, sharing new strategies. Why "new" ones? Older strategies didn't work so well. For example, using long-recommended conventional, medical wisdom, MS patients still got more urinary tract infections. Dr. Barry Farr tells how he avoided urinary tract infection for 20 years despite being high risk. When conventional approaches didn't relieve severe rib fracture pain, he tried something different. The pain disappeared. After 3 aspiration pneumonias during 7 months, he made a change and had none over 7 years. Being new, such strategies won't be found in other books for MS patients.

Download or read book Strippers Showgirls and Sharks written by Peter Filichia and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wait..Gypsy didn't win the Tony for Best Musical?" That's a question that gets asked over and over again, every time a new Rose takes to the runway in the Broadway classic "Gypsy". In "Strippers, Showgirls and Sharks", the popular syndicated theatre critic Peter Filichia chronicles the history of the American musical by looking at those shows that did not win the Tony Award for Best Musical. It happens every spring: The American Theatre Wing bestows its annual awards. Only those shows that have reached Broadway are nominated and while all Tony Awards are created equal in height, width and depth, the universally acknowledged biggest prize is the Best Musical Tony. The envelope is opened. The winner is announced and, then, the screeching begins. "Oh no! They gave it to that?" Did the best musical always win the Best Musical prize? Were there other factors that kept a more deserving show from copping the prize? Peter Filichia answers all these questions and more in "Strippers, Showgirls and Sharks" as he looks at many of the 153 previous Best Musical Nominees that didn't win the big prize. What were the biggest omissions? "Gypsy" had the distinct displeasure of not being either the first or second choice of the committee. In 1959 when Ethel Merman and a variety of strippers took the stage, the Tony for Best Musical was a tie between "The Sound of Music" and "Fiorello". In 1971, Stephen Sondheim's "Follies" and its ghostly showgirls lost to a "groovy" re-tuning of "Two Gentlemen of Verona" that hasn't passed the test of time. And, in 1957, "West Side Story", its Jets and Sharks, were bested by the fine people of River City Iowa singing their Americana hearts out in "The Music Man". If you love Broadway, scratch your head on Tony Award night and still can't figure out how a show you loathed won the Tony for Best Musical, you will love riding through the years with Peter Filichia, one of America's most respected and popular theatre critics.
