Book The Death of Francis Bacon

Download or read book The Death of Francis Bacon written by Max Porter and published by Strange Light. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madrid. Unfinished. Man dying. A great painter lies on his deathbed, synapses firing, writhing and reveling in pleasure and pain as a lifetime of chaotic and grotesque sense memories wash over and envelop him. In this bold and brilliant short work of experimental fiction by the author of Grief Is the Thing with Feathers and Lanny, Max Porter inhabits Francis Bacon in his final moments, translating into seven extraordinary written pictures the explosive final workings of the artist's mind. Writing as painting rather than about painting, Porter lets the images he conjures speak for themselves as they take their revenge on the subject who wielded them in life. The result is more than a biography: The Death of Francis Bacon is a physical, emotional, historical, sexual, and political bombardment--the measure of a man creative and compromised, erotic and masochistic, inexplicable and inspired.

  • Pages : 284 pages

Download or read book Once a Copper written by Vikki Petraitis and published by Wild Dingo Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once a copper, always a copper. At least that’s how it seems for Brian ‘The Skull’ Murphy, long-retired but sought out by a trail of journalists and cops who regularly beat a path to his door. Once known as Australia’s toughest cop, The Skull was both charged with manslaughter (and acquitted), then awarded a Valour Award for bravery in the line of duty. It is these two sides to the complex man that intrigue audiences to this day. A non-drinking, Catholic family man, The Skull didn’t fit the 1950s police mould and often found himself on the outer among his colleagues. Dodging crooks and corruption on both sides of the thin blue line, The Skull carefully cultivated a reputation for being a ‘mad bastard’. Over 40 men felt the sting of his bullets, and many more felt the sting of his fists. But behind Australia’s toughest cop lay a personal secret of sexual abuse which Murphy shares publicly for the first time, in the hope that it will help others. This abuse formed the kind of police officer he later became — tough on the bad guys, but fiercely protective towards victims. With today’s political correctness and strict rules of conduct, there will never be another big personality copper like Brian ‘The Skull’ Murphy. This is his story.

Download or read book No Ordinary Hook Up written by Frances Murphy Draper and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-08-27 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, we live in a hook-up culture - a culture that promotes casual sex. One hundred years ago, a hook-up was not about casual sex. It was the precursor to a lifetime commitment. In 1911, my grandparents, Carl Murphy and Lula Vashti Turley "hooked up" at Howard University in Washington, D.C. - he, the German professor, and she, the German student; he, born in 1889, and she, five years earlier; he the Alpha man and she the co-founder of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.; he, the youngest son of the founder of the Afro-American Newspaper; and she, the D.C. school teacher. It wasn't until after she was graduated from Howard in 1913 that she invited the young handsome professor "to call". But this was no ordinary hook-up! It was a courtship extraordinaire based on a strong faith in God, on who they were as individuals, as well as on who they hoped to become as a couple. Their remarkable letters ---published for the first time-are inspirational and instructive, as they reveal intimate details about their whirlwind courtship. "You love me then because my eyes are bright? Beauty will fade, but not the God in me, love that, beloved, to eternity".
