Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The poems in this selection are accompanied by pictures from photographs taken by the author which invite the reader to work out his or her own interpretation of them. Like the poems, some are easy to read, others more difficult, but they complement the text in various ways. The poems are different from my previous collection, Inventing Parents, published in 2003., which contained several sequences, and in which the predominant note was elegiac. They fall into three groups: one takes for topics travel, history and the world today; the second group grows out of personal issues, including encounters with love, illness and death; and the third group consists of poems that offer a more humorous or sardonic commentary on aspects of present-day life"

Download or read book Right Between the Eyes written by Scott Loring Sanders and published by Down & Out Books. This book was released on 2023-02-20 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a young girl is abducted in a historic New England town in 1981, a family seeks full and total revenge, unwittingly setting in motion several decades worth of wicked lies and betrayal. Flash-forward thirty years, and the reader follows the Chief of Police, Box Sullivan, and his niece, Michelle, a ranger at iconic Walden Pond, two people who, on the surface, appear to be admirable, upstanding citizens. However, as the novel progresses, it becomes evident that both have plenty of hidden secrets and dark pasts which often intertwine with that kidnapping from decades earlier. They each share histories rife with trauma and deceit, as well as similar personalities bent on revenge. When a mysterious skull is discovered by two boys fishing in Walden Pond, and then Michelle’s husband later disappears, the suspicion and finger-pointing escalate, and along with it, the tension and suspense. Told in alternating points of view, this literary mystery dives into the psychology of murderous betrayal, familial loyalty, and the extraordinary lengths people will resort to in the pursuit of self-preservation. Twists, turns, and ruthless back-stabbing fill these chapters, keeping the reader guessing and on edge until its unexpected and dark conclusion. Praise for RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES: “Right Between the Eyes is a riveting, twist-filled exploration of violence, memory, and family. With its richly complex characters and vivid sense of place, this is a novel that will stay with you long after you turn the last page.” —Lou Berney, Edgar Award-winning author of November Road “Right Between the Eyes is a propulsive tale of blackmail and murder rendered in spare, hard-hitting prose. Sanders does a masterly job revealing how a family’s closely-held secrets can echo across generations like a gunshot across a midnight lake.” —Dennis Tafoya, author of Dope Thief “With a New England setting and the ghosts of Thoreau, Emerson, and Alcott coloring the background, Scott Loring Sanders weaves a tale of family secrets. Good people do bad things, and by the end, you are rooting for them to get away with it. Equal parts Stephen King’s Castle Rock and SA Cosby’s modern noir.” —Jim Winter, author of the Holland Bay thrillers “Scott Loring Sanders’ crime novel Right Between the Eyes gives new meaning to the phrase ‘all in the family.’ With terrific pacing, intriguing characters, and skillful buildup of suspense, Sanders thrusts the reader into the dark and grisly past of two sisters in New England and their police officer uncle; a past filled with ominous secrets that threaten to destroy the conspiratorial bonds that unite them. Set in Concord, Massachusetts, where Henry David Thoreau penned his famous philosophical musings, Right Between the Eyes is a roller coaster of a book with exciting plot twists that will keep the reader riveted. Sanders has crafted a thriller every lover of crime fiction will enjoy to the hilt. A must-read.” —Michael Bruce Blackwell, author of Wildlife on the Serengeti “Right Between the Eyes is not your standard sins of the father/bound by blood tale, but a welcomed departure into uncharted territory. With great risk, clean prose and precise execution, Scott Loring Sanders has created not only a feast for crime fiction aficionados, but also a revelation for all book lovers—proving himself undeniable with this dark, brooding and bloody family drama. Highly recommended.” —Nolan Knight, author of The Neon Lights Are Veins and Beneath the Black Palms “Right Between the Eyes is definitely the correct title for this one! Scott Loring Sanders hits you in the face from page one and doesn’t let up until the white-knuckle climax. This dark and troubling tale of two generations of the Sullivan family operating on multiple sides of the law raises many unsettling questions about the nature—and price—of loyalty at all costs, and is one of the most gripping novels I have read in years.” —Nathan Singer, author of Transorbital and Blackchurch Furnace

Download or read book British Radio Drama 1945 63 written by Hugh Chignell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Radio Drama, 1945-1963 reveals the quality and range of the avant-garde radio broadcasts from the 'golden age' of British radio drama. Turning away from the cautious and conservative programming that emerged in the UK immediately after World War II, young generations of radio producers looked to French theatre, introducing writers such as Samuel Beckett and Eugene Ionesco to British radio audiences. This 'theatre of the absurd' triggered a renaissance of writing and production featuring the work of Giles Cooper, Rhys Adrian and Harold Pinter, as well as the launch of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Based on primary archival research and interviews with former BBC staff, Hugh Chignell places this high-point in the BBC's history in the broader context of British post-war culture, as norms of morality and behavior were re-negotiated in the shadow of the Cold War, while at once establishing the internationalism of post-war radio and theatre.
