Download or read book Le Havre A Riveting Expos for Our World Today The French R sistance World War II A Historical War Romance Novel written by Pierre Gerard and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-02-22 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam Press Historical Fiction. The late Pierre Gerard's historical war romance poignantly portrays the atrocities of war and what happens when individuals and nations ignore, unite with or combat those whose deliberate and declared intent is to intimidate, persecute, dominate and annihilate other people and countries. We learn about the boundless bravery that was France's salvation during those terrifying, turbulent years. We taste the unleashed, incomprehensible evil that man is capable of and the horrific anguish and extermination the Nazis successfully executed against Jews, dissidents, and those they deemed different and inferior, and therefore, unworthy of life. Le Havre is significant not just for France and Europe during World War II, as the ramifications of this historical novel and era also apply to present and future civilizations. It is my hope that the reader be awakened and inspired by the passion and positive activism of The French Resistance. 52 images.

Download or read book Yves Montand written by Joseph Harriss and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once described by the New York Times as "the quintessential French Romantic, half adventurer, half-intellectual," actor, singer, and political activist Yves Montand won the hearts of audiences around the world with a charisma and talent that transcended physical and linguistic borders. Born in Italy as Ivo Livi, Montand achieved international recognition for his singing and performances in films such as Salaire de la Peur (1952) and Let's Make Love (1960) with Marilyn Monroe, with whom he had a passionate but short-lived affair. An Oscar and BAFTA Award winner who was also twice nominated for a César Award for best actor, Montand's success was not limited to his work in film. Discovered and mentored by Edith Piaf, his interpretations of French songs were intense and intoxicating. His mellow baritone voice led to Broadway stardom and sent him on tour, making him one of the best-known entertainers of his day. Yves Montand: The Passionate Voice profiles Montand's complex, dynamic, and extraordinary life. From his birth in an Italian village near Florence in 1921 to his "accidental" immigration to France, his international success as an actor, singer, and activist to his sudden death from a heart attack in 1991, Joseph Harriss covers every aspect of Montand's life and career. Drawing on foreign-language biographies, Montand's autobiography, specialized studies, interviews, and other archival materials, Yves Montand is a riveting and multidimensional account of Montand's story and legacy.

Book excerpt: Only Willoughby Tetford, the American self-made millionaire, was shrewd enough to have any misgivings when his beautiful daughter, Willow, married the handsome English aristocrat. Willow herself, seventeen, innocent and deeply in love with her new husband, Rowell Rochford, had complete trust and confidence in the future as she arrived at Rochford Manor in England. And when Rowell's matriarchal French grandmother handed her the keys of the house and told she was the new Chatelaine, Willow believed she held the keys not only to the multitude of rooms of which she was now the mistress but also to love and happiness. On her arrival, she is greeted warmly by her four brothers-in-law: Tony, quiet and studious; Pelham, teasing and flirtatious, the spoilt Francis and the sensitive Rupert. But she has no inkling of the obsession which grips old Lady Rochford because of events in the past to which she, Willow is ignorant. Nor does she realise the terrible repercussions the obsession will have on her own life.

Taylor Barton has drawn a compelling and fascinating portrait of the underbelly of the Hamptons and the interior life of a woman in search of redemption in it." -Rosanne Cash Singer, Songwriter, Author of Bodies of Water and Penelope Jane "Taylor Barton's exceptional debut novel explores, in stunning prose, the cutthroat and catty world of artist rivalry and family wreckage caused by drug-induced insanity. Although Hotheaded Saints is fraught with a myriad of inner and outer demons, at its core lies a transformative faith in the healing powers of destiny." -Martine Bellen Author of Vulnerability of Order Hotheaded Saints is a fiery, rip-roaring ride through the overwrought Hamptons; a kaleidoscope of the Bonnackers verses the A-listers.
