Book Description
When Thea was finally moving into her dream apartment, liking her job just enough to not want to quit every other week and finally getting a grip on the whole 'adulting' deal, the universe throws her a curveball in the shape of Seb. The same Seb she spent every waking moment with in university. Who knew her smallest insecurities and was her biggest cheerleader. Who carried the mantle of being Thea's best friend. Well, estranged best friend. Went-MIA-without-a- trace-the-day-after-graduation best friend. And now out of the blue, he is her next-door neighbour. And her new client at work. And suddenly it feels like they are thrust back into the past. But it's not as easy, treading the path between knowing each other like the back of their hands and being complete strangers. Getting on the other's nerves, if not at their necks, but getting nervous every time they cross paths. Not seeing eye to eye, except for the stolen glances neither of them notices. What happens when they stop orbiting one another and finally collide?

Category : Literary Criticism

Pages : 241
Book Description
Catch phrases such as "shop till you drop," cliches like "life begins at forty" and idioms such as "talk the hind leg off a donkey" have long enriched the English language. Here is a collection of thousands of familiar expressions--a treasure trove of idea-starters and memory-joggers that will make for more imaginative creative writing. An advertising copywriter working on a campaign for, say, a granola-peanut product can easily find the instantly-recognizable phrase "Energy Crunch"--a clever and informative headline. Each phrase is cross-referenced by key word. Thus "raining cats and dogs," for example, appears under "cat," "dog" and "rain." In most cases, various forms of the word are listed under the root word. So under "run" you will find not only sayings that include the word "run," but those that include "running," "runneth," "runner" and "run-around."

What Are Friends For? is the sequel to Bogie’s Rules. The story follows Zachariah T. Bogan, an itinerant surf lifeguard, who wanders from beach job to beach job in the late 1940s and ‘50s. Although a fictional character, “Bogie” represents the real men who worked East Coast beaches in the summer and Southern beaches in the winter in the “good old days.” Bogie finds himself in Florida working for the Ft. Lauderdale Beach Patrol during the winter season. His personal philosophy of life involves him in an adventure he would never have believed possible. Bogie meets and falls for a beautiful, smart, and wealthy businesswoman from Washington, D.C. When she disappears, Bogie enlists his brother and his friends, who all have military experience and are trained in subversive combat tactics. The clues lead the group to beaches that span South Florida to a remote island in the South Atlantic, and surprisingly into the world of Russian human trafficking.

Chaplin's Music Hall
Author: Barry Anthony
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1786723859
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Charlie Chaplin grew up in and around the music hall. His parents, aunt and their friends all earned their precarious livings on the stage and Chaplin himself started out his career touring music halls with a dance troupe. His experiences of the culture of the music hall were a major influence, shaping his style of acting and the films he made, most famously Limelight, which tells the story of a failing variety performer and which evoked painful memories of his own past. Chaplin was horrified to see how performers' lives were ruined when their audience turned against them and he was relieved to exchange the stresses of live performance for screen comedy. Barry Anthony here tells the story of the lives and careers of Chaplin's family and their music-hall circle - from 'dashing' Eva Lester to the great Fred Karno and from Chaplin's parents Hannah Hill and Charles Chaplin to 'The Great Calvero' himself. He reveals the difficult and often-tragic lives of London's variety community in the late-Victorian and Edwardian years, a time of great change in the music hall and entertainment scene, and in doing so sheds important new light on the inspiration behind Chaplin's genius, providing a fascinatingly fresh perspective on this popular cultural icon of the twentieth century.
