Download or read book Home written by David Storey and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One works. One looks around. One meets people. But very little communication takes place . . . That is the nature of this little island. As five apparently unrelated characters meet in a seemingly insignificant garden, the autumnal sun shines overhead and everybody waits for rain. What they discuss is superficially anything that can pass the time. What is portrayed is the very essence of England, Englishness, class, unfulfilled ambition, loves lost and homes that no longer exist. Storey's timeless play is a beautiful, compassionate, tragic and darkly funny study of the human mind and a once-great nation coming to terms with its new place in the world.
Download or read book Storey Plays 1 written by David Storey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "David Storey is a writer who genuinely extends the territory of drama" (Guardian) The Contractor: "A subtle and poetic parable about the nature and joy of skilled work, the meaning of community and the effect of its loss" (Observer); Home: "about the solitude and dislocation of madness and...the decline of Britain itself...part of the play's appeal is that Storey leaves it to us to draw our own conclusions...a play that contains within itself the still, sad music of humanity." (Guardian); Stages: "...an elegy for lost times and places, an obituary that has been free-associated by the corpse-to-be...Storey once said that a play 'lives almost in the measure that it escapes and refuses definition'. He has always been a writer who hints rather than states, let alone hectors." (The Times); Caring, a companion piece to Stages, reflects a reassessment and renegotiation of the conflict between life and art.

Download or read book Noah written by Matt Giamarco and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. --Genesis 1:1-2 Dear faithful reader, This is how God begins His story. A long story of "creation, subsequent fall, and final restoration of fallen humanity that God accomplishes through the death, resurrection, and return of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ" (Allen Bradberry). As you read, you will see my life undergo a God-driven paradigm shift toward a stronger commitment to God with a fuller, more in-depth understanding. As Jesus died on the cross He said, "It is finished." Yes, it is finished, the forgiveness of all our sins. The greatest triumph in the history of mankind. Forgiveness. Absolution. Exoneration. Justification and righteous before our Lord. A free, undeserved grace deposited on our behalf to allow our souls to present unblemished on the threshold of God's eternal throne. It is a perfect unconditional love. Can you imagine a God who bends His will to loving wretches like us continuously and forgivingly without boundary? It surpasses all understanding and eclipses all free thought. I hope you will see this play out as God intended in this version of a modern-day world succumbed by a long-term blitz of sin and moral depravity and its redemption. Hi. I am Noah. I live in this mid-twenty-first-century world. A society in the throngs of Babylonian debauchery and will suffer a modern-day version of the great flood. Through a force majeure of God's will, this secular world view will bring about a real apocalyptic destruction to Earth. It is true by Jesus's death, we are all forgiven, but have we all repented? This spiritual allegory is written in honor of God's will. It will hopefully force you to ponder and decide if you are aligned with the Holy Spirit, Jesus's representative here on Earth until we are reunited with him in eternity. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you, Noah

Book excerpt: “Alice B. Toklas wrote hers and now everybody will write theirs.” In 1933 Gertrude Stein’s The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas skyrocketed to the top of the bestseller lists, and the author found herself a celebrity. Everybody’s Autobiography is the very Steinian account of her soul-satisfying next five years in France, England, and America, where she made a triumphant tour of the country. Here are Stein’s devastating analyses of some of the major figures of the day whom she met—among them Dashiell Hammett, Charlie Chaplin, Pablo Picasso, Marianne Moore, Mrs. Roosevelt, and Sherwood Anderson—and also of her own life and work.

Sayers and Lord Peter Wimsey's cases. When a church architect finds a naked man in his Battersea bathroom, Lord Peter Wimsey is on the case! The aristocratic amateur detective, accompanied by his camera-bearing manservant Bunter, follows a trail of blood as he pursues stock market manipulation, medical malpractice, and Lord Brocklebury’s edition of Dante. But the curious case of the bathing body turns darker and deadlier as Lord Peter uncovers a ghastly crime. Published in 1923, Whose Body? was Dorothy L. Sayers’ debut novel. Bill Peschel provided hundreds of footnotes to guide the reader through Lord Peter's world, describing words, objects and ideas that were familiar to Sayers' readers but obscure or unknown today.

Download or read book Mar a Mart nez Sierra A Great Playwright Hidden in Plain Sight written by María Martínez Sierra and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The plays of María Martínez Sierra were popular in Spain, South America and in translation on Broadway and London's West End in the first half of the 20th century but they were thought to be written by her husband, the celebrated director and playwright Gregorio Martínez Sierra. After his death, the authorship of his work was revealed to be that of María, making her one of the most important playwrights of her time. This edited collection features three plays by María Martínez Sierra, translated by Helen and Harley Granville-Barker, along with an introduction by Patricia O'Connor, University of Cincinnati, US, which examines María's extraordinary life and work, and the battle for her authorship to be recognized in both the Spanish-speaking and anglophone world. This volume focuses on plays centred on strong women; and each is translated by the eminent man of theatre Harley Granville-Barker and his wife, Helen, whose own story holds stark parallels to Maria's in terms of authorship. The collection is edited by playwright Richard Nelson and Professor Colin Chambers, who contribute an essay on the translation work of the Granville-Barkers. The plays are: The Kingdom of God (1928); The Romantic Young Lady (1920) and Take Two From One (1931). María Martínez Sierra: A Great Playwright Hidden in Plain Sight recognizes María de la O Lejárraga García, to use her birth name, as one of the most important female playwrights, not just in Spain, but globally, in the first half of the 20th century.
