Download or read book The Bin Diaries written by Slam Daniels and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Slam begins his second documented mission in Mumbai in rainy season. Unaclimatized immersal in the hot, humid condition makes for an uncomfortable start to a voyage to a vast sub-continent on the pretext of cataloguing its waste disposal facilities. Bins are less plentiful than maybe expected from such populous country, poverty forcing many to discard their waste on the street and often live in it but, unperturbed, Slam photographs what there is for posterity. The often unsuccessful search for habitable accommodation and palatable food and the toll taken by excessive intake of alcohol and other toxins leaves the author fighting fatigue, sickness and psychosis on a daily basis. Travelling via train, plane, bus, jeep and rickshaw, through Delhi, Amritsar, Jodhpur and Jaipur, witnessing incredible natural and manmade beauty, squalor and social inequality and the apparent brewing of civil war in Kashmir, “The Bin Diaries, India” documents the Indian people, places and culture from a unique perspective.

Book excerpt: Slam ditches real life, clean clothes and sobriety on an epic journey across England. What begins as a questionable mission to document the country's waste receptacles rapidly takes on a surreal hue. The Bin Diaries, England, documents the author's semi-psychopathical lurchings around the south of Old Blighty between bizarre and brillian situations. Wit, heavy substance abuse and ever present emotional torment have equipped with him to offer an unique slant on life. Often dark, always entertaining but never incredible, Slam's subversive musings leave one wondering whole version of reality is more realistic. "Buy it. Ready it. Bin it." Slam Daniels

Download or read book The Private Life of the Diary written by Sally Bayley and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diaries keep secrets, harbouring our fantasies and fictional histories. They are substitute boyfriends, girlfriends, spouses and friends. But in this age of social media, the role of the diary as a private confidante has been replaced by a culture of public self-disclosure. The Private Life of the Diary: from Pepys to Tweets is an elegantly-told story of the evolution – and perhaps death – of the diary. It traces its origins to seventeenth-century naval administrator, Samuel Pepys, and continues to twentieth-century diarist Virginia Woolf, who recorded everything from her personal confessions about her irritation with her servants to her memories of Armistice Day and the solar eclipse of 1927. Sally Bayley explores how diaries can sometimes record our lives as we live them, but that we often indulge our fondness for self-dramatization, like the teenaged Sylvia Plath who proclaimed herself 'The Girl Who Would be God'. This book is an examination of the importance of writing and self-reflection as a means of forging identity. It mourns the loss of the diary as an acutely private form of writing. And it champions it as a conduit to self-discovery, allowing us to ask ourselves the question: Who or What am I in relation to the world?

Download or read book Coalition Diaries 2012 2015 written by David Laws and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed as one of the sharpest political intellects of his generation, David Laws saw his ministerial career nosedive before it had begun when, after only seventeen days as Chief Secretary to the Treasury, he was forced to resign when unintended breaches of parliamentary expenses rules came to light. You can't keep a good man down, however, and he returned to government, where he was also responsible for implementation of the coalition agreement and planning the Lib Dems' strategy in the run-up to the 2015 election. David began writing a diary in March 2012 and continued writing it throughout his ministerial career and up to the 2015 election, which devastated the Liberal Democrats in Parliament. Frank, acerbic, sometimes shocking and often funny, Coalition Diaries chronicles the historic Liberal Democrat–Conservative coalition government, offering extraordinary pen portraits of all the personalities involved, some of whom were cast aside at the election or put to the knife after Brexit, while others are active in today's government.

Download or read book On Diary written by Philippe Lejeune and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2009-04-30 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Diary is the second collection in English of the groundbreaking and profoundly influential work of one of the best-known and provocative theorists of autobiography and diary. Ranging from the diary’s historical origins to its pervasive presence on the Internet, from the spiritual journey of the sixteenth century to the diary of Anne Frank, and from the materials and methods of diary writing to the question of how diaries end, these essays display Philippe Lejeune’s expertise, eloquence, passion, and humor as a commentator on the functions, practices, and significance of keeping or reading a diary. Lejeune is a leading European critic and theorist of diary and autobiography. His landmark essay, "The Autobiographical Pact," has shaped life writing studies for more than thirty years, and his many books and essays have repeatedly opened up new vistas for scholarship. As Michael Riffaterre notes, "Lejeune’s work on autobiography is the most original, powerful, effective approach to a difficult subject. . . . His style is very personal, lively. It grabs the reader as scholarship rarely does. Lejeune’s erudition and methodology are impeccable." Two substantial introductory essays by Jeremy Popkin and Julie Rak place Lejeune’s work within its critical and theoretical traditions and comment on his central importance within the fields of life writing, literary genetic studies, and cultural studies.
