Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this series of notes, opinions, experiences, and reflections, Thomas Merton examines some of the most urgent questions of our age. With his characteristic forcefulness and candor, he brings the reader face-to-face with such provocative and controversial issues as the “death of God,” politics, modern life and values, and racial strife–issues that are as relevant today as they were fifty years ago. Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander is Merton at his best–detached but not unpassionate, humorous yet sensitive, at all times alive and searching, with a gift for language which has made him one of the most widely read and influential spiritual writers of our time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After reading Whitman's "Leaves of Grass", Robert Louis Stevenson called it "a book which tumbled the world upside down for me." Stevenson died in 1894, so we can only imagine what he might have thought of "The Completely Guilty Bystander". Perhaps after leafing through stories such as "Grace Jones and the Garden of Eden", "Playing Doctor at the Reception" or "Mortal Combat with the Paper Pillow", Mr. Stevenson's view of the world might once again have spun dangerously out of control. Maybe "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" would have mentioned the hidden but surprisingly possible benefits of organized crime to the community. Or the desperate lengths a man will go to in the course of trying to get his phone service re-connected. The world can only be left to wonder if he even would have added a section on anger in everyday life and how it could relate back to TV''s "The Incredible Hulk". Of course, if Robert Louis Stevenson read those stories today, he'd be about 150 years old, so really, that act alone would have been very impressive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 1955 was a watershed one for New York’s film industry: Elia Kazan’s On the Waterfront took home eight Oscars, and, more quietly, Stanley Kubrick released the low-budget classic Killer’s Kiss. A wave of films that changed how American movies were made soon followed, led by directors such as Sidney Lumet, William Friedkin, Francis Ford Coppola, and Martin Scorsese. Yet this resurgence could not have occurred without a deeply rooted tradition of local film production. Richard Koszarski chronicles the compelling and often surprising origins of New York’s postwar film renaissance, looking beyond such classics as Naked City, Kiss of Death, and Portrait of Jennie. He examines the social, cultural, and economic forces that shaped New York filmmaking, from city politics to union regulations, and shows how decades of low-budget independent production taught local filmmakers how to capture the city’s grit, liveliness, and allure. He reveals the importance of “race films”—all-Black productions intended for segregated African American audiences—that not only helped keep the film business afloat but also nurtured a core group of writers, directors, designers, and technicians. Detailed production histories of On the Waterfront and Killer’s Kiss—films that appear here in a completely new light—illustrate the distinctive characteristics of New York cinema. Drawing on a vast array of research—including studio libraries, censorship records, union archives, and interviews with participants—“Keep ’Em in the East” rewrites a crucial chapter in the history of American cinema.
