Download or read book Time for Frankie Coolin written by Bill Granger and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-11-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed journalist and author delivers “a raw and vivid slice of Chicago” in a novel that explores the changing tide of race, class and politics (The New York Times). Time for Frankie Coolin is the story of a plasterer turned landlord in Chicago who, in the late 1970s, buys abandoned buildings and makes them just habitable enough to charge minimal rent from his mostly black tenants. In this way, Frankie is able to move his family to a house in the suburbs. But Frankie’s well-ordered life comes apart when a casual favor for a cousin combined with a random act of arson set in motion a cascade of crises. Suddenly, Frankie’s up against menacing G-men and threats of prison if he doesn’t talk. But since talking has never been one of Frankie’s strengths, he copes as he always has: by trying to tough it out on his own. Time for Frankie Coolin is both a psychological thriller and a ’70s Chicago period piece that shines a surprisingly sympathetic light on the often-overlooked people who lived, worked, and died at the city’s margins. This edition includes a foreword by Bill Savage.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • David Byrne’s incisive and enthusiastic look at the musical art form, from its very inceptions to the influences that shape it, whether acoustical, economic, social, or technological—now updated with a new chapter on digital curation. “How Music Works is a buoyant hybrid of social history, anthropological survey, autobiography, personal philosophy, and business manual”—The Boston Globe Utilizing his incomparable career and inspired collaborations with Talking Heads, Brian Eno, and many others, David Byrne taps deeply into his lifetime of knowledge to explore the panoptic elements of music, how it shapes the human experience, and reveals the impetus behind how we create, consume, distribute, and enjoy the songs, symphonies, and rhythms that provide the backbeat of life. Byrne’s magnum opus uncovers thrilling realizations about the redemptive liberation that music brings us all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlotte Brownie Wright is the town clerk in tiny map-dot Abbott, a Southern town determined not to leap too quickly into the next century. She is best described as a cross between Scarlett O'Hara and Flo Castleberry from Mel's Diner and has big hair, a big heart, and a big laugh. She stays on top of the action in Abbott with the help of the local cast of characters, good fashion sense, and good pimento cheese and pickle sandwiches. Investigating a murder is the last thing from her mind until she finds the town historian dead in the old courthouse. With the police force down one man, Brownie steps up with the organizational skills only a clerk can possess. She and the police chief work their way through a set of contradictory clues, a nineteenth century old civil war ghost, and motives abound.

Book excerpt: Brian Marley should be counting his winnings as victor of Britain’s ultimate reality TV show. Instead, he’s stranded on a jungle island after a helicopter crash wipes out the television crew. His ill-fated luck takes a turn when he falls from a precarious cliff and lands in a lost world. Awaking in a village founded by survivors of a 1958 airplane crash, Brian discovers an idyllic community modeled after pre-Sixties England and overseen by the stern but judicious Headmaster. But when he uncovers the Headmaster’s methods of survival, the village’s quaint idealism proves to be founded on something far more sinister. With rescue imminent, Brian finds himself at the center of a clash between English cultures separated by fifty years of history. Satirical and insightful, Speak for England explores the changing world by asking whether it ever really changes at all.

Download or read book Time for Frankie Coolin written by Bill Griffith and published by Random House (NY). This book was released on 1982 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Frankie Coolin's not the most likable guy around. At 49, he's an all-around bigot, a scrounger, a two-bit Chicago contractor/slumlord who's first seen ripping the radiators out of a "six-flat" building he's readying for occupancy by blacks. But somehow you'll care about Frankie--as a dark dread starts draining the life out of him, a dread he can't admit or share: a while back, you see, Frankie let his wife's cousin use some warehouse space; and when the warehouse burned, stolen TVs were found in the rubble. So now two FBI guys keep coming around, threatening Frankie with jail unless he Tells All. And, though semi-innocent, Frankie clams up tight, gets some foreboding advice from a coarse/wise Jewish lawyer, and walks around like a man under a death sentence: not only did a jail-term virtually kill his Uncle Brian but Frankie knows that his extended family's frail status quo will collapse if he's sent away. Still, tough-guy Frankie can't talk about it--not to his bar buddies or his soft wife Rose or his resentful, sick brother John or his nephew-employee Joey or his old father (who lives in the basement). Only when the indictment gets closer and closer does he open up a little with his "Polack" son-in-law, with college-student son Mick. Then, finally, the nightmare does indeed begin: the arrest, the handcuffs, the neighbors watching. But both Rose and Mick surprisingly rise to the occasion; and Frankie's ultimate salvation involves more than just escaping the jail time. A simple story--with a slightly too-simple resolution in the transformed father/son relationship."--Kirkus.

Book excerpt: Scrambling down the bank, Gapinski slipped and almost toppled into the fast-moving water. Ice-cold chills went up his spine as he moved slowly along the tree toward the floating figure. Grabbing the arm, he tugged at the body, moving it toward the bank. Slowly the weight of the torso as it emerged from the liquid began to strain the forty-year old beat cop. When Patrolman John Gapinski finds a dead body floating in the river, he has no idea that it is only the tip of the iceberg. Civil Detective Brian Donnley and National Guard Captain Dave Brokowsky investigate the murder and discover that the mysterious body is Sergeant Bascom. Bascom isn't the only member of the guard that has turned up dead. The connections begin to become clear as they embark on a thrilling investigative chase. But even they aren't prepared for the level of corruption they encounter when they stumble upon a drug smuggling operation by rogue CIA personnel. Will they be able to connect the dots and bring down the operatives before more blood is shed?
