Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The native of southern California—whom the author calls a “Procal”—inhabits the area of Los Angeles and its environs. He came to California because he was tired of something—usually cold weather—and he has become the most hobby- and leisure-conscious citizen in the U.S., devoted as he is to his barbecue, his swimming pool, his beaches, his deserts and his television set. Cynthia Hobart Lindsay describes a long list of Procal habits and habitats: his outrageous driving—which seems to be the most marked manifestation of his “restlessness”; the Sunset Strip which is frequented by the closest thing to a southern California beatnik; Hollywood parties; the penchant for the occult; Forest Lawn Cemetery—which also serves the community as an artistic and cultural center; the out-of-bounds areas—notably Pasadena; and the most recent complexity—the Dodgers. Presented with laughter, lifted eyebrows and affection, here is a wide-screen report on the Never-Never Land of Southern California, packed with bizarre but authentic historical, sociological and psychological facts and anecdotes.

Book The Natives are Restless

Download or read book The Natives are Restless written by Idries Shah and published by Octagon Press Ltd. This book was released on 1988 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of its best-selling predecessor, Darkest England, Shah continues his brilliantly funny look at the English and those who would try to understand them. The author's background gives him a uniquely Eastern and Western perspective from which he weaves a tapestry of characters, commentaries, and anecdotes drawn from his many years as an observer of the English mentality. Shah shares unusually personal stories from his life as a widely respected author, thinker, and advisor. Joining with him are celebrities, treasure-hunters, expatriates, royals, pseudo-royals, and an unforgettable parade of internationals. Together they share a look at the misunderstandings, scholarly absurdities, and comic paradoxes of England and the rest of our ever-shrinking world.

Book This Restless Life

  • Author : Brigid Delaney
  • Publisher : Melbourne Univ. Publishing
  • Release : 2009
  • ISBN : 0522855962
  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book This Restless Life written by Brigid Delaney and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We often live in transit, shifting between jobs, cities and countries, trying to build communities in a virtual world, but longing - maybe before dropping off to sleep at night - for some stronger connection. The savage playground of speed dating. High-risk, low-loyalty workplaces, scattered around the world. Friendships and love affairs conducted through technology. Globalisation and the long boom have changed the way young people love, work and travel. In This Restless Life, journalist Brigid Delaney looks at the impact that hyper-mobility and the excesses of consumer culture have had on the restless generation. She hears stories from young Australians in the departure lounges of outer London airports, at parties in Rome and Sydney, in the caf s of Berlin and Paris. They feel 'nation-stateless', adrift. Their affluence in the new economy has come at a cost. Having lived the restless life herself - fifteen cities over the past fifteen years - Delaney laments the loss of the things that for previous generations held life together, like romantic love, full-time permanent work and real-world communities. But just as the pace of the new economy changed us into restless human beings, might the global financial crisis provide this generation with an opportunity to slow down and reassess how it might live?

  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2022-01-06
  • ISBN : 1666711918
  • Pages : 212 pages

Download or read book Restless written by David J. Gillard and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-01-06 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do many popular songs positively reference God if our culture is widely viewed as secular? Why is it a challenge to tell the Christian story when many say they are spiritual and believe in God? Why do we draw so much meaning from the popular songs we listen to? And might a deeper understanding of popular-music culture help us to explore the bigger stories we listen to throughout our lives, such as the Christian story? Primarily using Zygmunt Bauman's understanding of "liquid modernity" we look at the social forces that shape Western society and consider why, while many are looking for "authentic," ontologically based stories to understand their life experiences, historic providers of the big stories that shape our lives, such as the church, favor a different, epistemological way of telling them. How do these different approaches to storytelling affect their reception and what insight might we draw from that? Whilst this book is written primarily with those in Christian ministry in mind, it will be of interest, too, to those who use music to explore life experiences through their work, who are interested in the social forces that shape society, or who simply enjoy listening to popular music.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the 2020 ForeWord INDIE Book of the Year in the Multicultural Adult Fiction Category Restless Spirits is a collection of previously unpublished plays by contemporary Assiniboine playwright William S. Yellow Robe Jr. Including one full-length and seven one-act plays, this book reflects one of the author's most creative and productive periods in his career. Selected by Yellow Robe, in consultation with editor Jace Weaver, the plays reveal the range of Yellow Robe's writing from tragedies to farce. They are unified by their supernatural themes or significant elements, including Wood Bones, his most recent and highly successful full-length play. Weaver's introduction says that the works in this collection clearly demonstrate that Yellow Robe is not just a great American Indian playwright, but a great American playwright in the company of David Mamet, Lynn Nottage, and Wallace Shawn. Renowned American Indian playwright Hanay L. Geiogamah provides a foreword and calls this volume "a real gift to the American Indian theater—and to theater, more generally."
