Download or read book Leopoldstadt written by Tom Stoppard and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2020-08-25 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play** Finally making its Broadway debut in a limited engagement run, Tom Stoppard’s humane and heartbreaking Olivier Award-winning play of love, family, and endurance At the beginning of the twentieth century, Leopoldstadt was the old, crowded Jewish quarter of Vienna, a city humming with artistic and intellectual excitement. Stoppard’s epic yet intimate drama centers on Hermann Merz, a manufacturer and baptized Jew married to Catholic Gretl, whose extended family convene at their fashionable apartment on Christmas Day in 1899. Yet by the time the play closes, Austria has passed through the convulsions of war, revolution, impoverishment, annexation by Nazi Germany, and the Holocaust, which stole the lives of 65,000 Austrian Jews alone. From one of today’s most acclaimed playwrights, Leopoldstadt is a human and heartbreaking drama of literary brilliance, historical verisimilitude, and powerful emotion.

Download or read book Man in the Gap written by Brette Simmons and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever known a man whose heart beats with such reverent passion that those touched still feel its honorable pulse decades later? Man in the Gap is a biography/memoir, the inspiring story of such a man, Douglas McDowell Bennett, an ordinary boy who accomplished extraordinary things. Coach Bennett left an indelible mark on the people of Swansea, South Carolina, a small southern town, long racially segregated, when, in 1968, he found himself tasked with implementing the integration of the town's black and white schools. In that moment, he chose to become a unifying and enduring bridge between the two, overcoming fierce resistance with patience, persistence, dignity, and grace. In Man in the Gap, the exemplary life of this hall-of-fame coach is shared through heartfelt recollections of former players and coaches who highlight the unique aspects of Coach Bennett's amiable personality, principled character, and inspirational teaching and coaching philosophies. Many describe him as a Christian role model - teaching them the most important lessons of life - which forever enhanced and enriched their lives. In thirty-six years of selfless service, in many seen, but often unseen ways, Doug Bennett modeled enduring excellence for a small town, a burgeoning state, and beyond, as he followed the still, small voice.

Download or read book Riding the Waves written by Jane McDonald and published by Random House. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Everything is much easier in life when difficult situations are faced with humour and a smile. But, don't get me wrong, that took years to realise. What a journey...' Whether performing in an arena, presenting a number one TV show or recording a top-ten album, Jane McDonald will never forget her Northern roots. Her down-to-earth Yorkshire charm is as much a part of her as her talent for singing, and here she is telling her remarkable story with characteristic wit and warmth, in her own words. A miner's daughter from Wakefield, Jane was a shy child who struggled with anxiety, but she found the courage to overcome her fears and follow her passion for performing. Jane famously hit the big time overnight on TV show The Cruise twenty years ago, but here she talks for the first time about how she survived the dark legacy of that early success, and climbed right back up for a second bite of the cherry. It hasn't all been plain sailing, but in Jane's world tough times make the good times better, and her spirit, heart and humour sparkle from every page.

Download or read book Football Lexicon written by John Leigh and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sort of Robbie Fowler's Modern English Usage, 'The Football Lexicon' provides an A to Row Z of the language of football, with over 800 examples of the set phrases we use to talk and write about the beautiful game. Altercation; A rather euphemistic way of describing a bust-up, a dust-up, a situation where players square up, as in - 'Bit of an altercation off the ball there.' See also handbags. Z - Row Z is a long way from the pitch and so, by inference, the hypothetical destination of any no-nonsense clearance. Defenders who put safety first by playing within their limitations can be praised, but a reference to the back of the stand may also depict a badly over-hit pass - 'He tried to find Fredgaard on the other wing, but that's gone straight into Row Z.' Old-school managers may even condone their players putting the opposition into the stands along with the ball - 'County boss Billy Dearden was left fuming - 'O’Driscoll should have finished in Row Z but we were too nice'.

Download or read book Geordie Armstrong On the Wing written by Dave Seager and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George 'Geordie' Armstrong served Arsenal for 27 years as both a player and a coach, before being cruelly taken from his family and his club whilst coaching the Arsenal reserves at London Colney - he collapsed suddenly on the training pitch having suffered a brain haemorrhage in October 2000 - and never recovered. At the request of Geordie's daughter, Jill, Dave Seager has worked towards capturing the essence of George Armstrong: the player, the coach and the man. He has not chosen the conventional biography route, instead he tells the story of Geordie Armstrong with the assistance of those who knew him best - and the end product reads like a veritable who's who of Arsenal Football Club from the past 50 years. Seager successfully paints a remarkable picture - reliving stories and recollections of those who loved him; those who were fortunate to call him their friend; those who played alongside him; those who watched him play week in week out and those who were coached by him. There are also dozens of never before published action shots and pictures from George's own personal photographic collection to enjoy. The interview roll-call includes: Bob Wilson, Frank McLintock, Charlie George, Eddie Kelly, John Radford, George Graham, Liam Brady, George Cohen, Arsene Wenger, Dennis Bergkamp, Lee Dixon, David Dein, Gary Lewin, Vic Akers, Stewart Houston, Pat Rice, Martin Keown, Kevin Campbell, Frank Stapleton, Steve Burtenshaw, Ken Friar, Steve Sidwell, Perry Groves, Peter Simpson, Brendan Batson, Bob McNab and many more -
