    Bill Gentile did more than just "cover" Nicaragua's Sandinista Revolution and the Contra War. He lived them. First as correspondent for United Press International (UPI) and later as photojournalist for Newsweek magazine, Gentile experienced those historic events from the inside, as the partner of a Nicaraguan woman whose prominent family "adopted" him as one of their own. His memoir takes readers not only to the 1979 revolution, the Contra War in the merciless mountains of Nicaragua and to the deadly streets of El Salvador, but also to the steel mills and backyards of southwestern Pennsylvania where the Italian immigrant community prepared him for those conflicts, and then waited for his return. This book introduces the American public to the victims of U.S. intervention abroad. It is a firsthand, frontline account of the human cost of war. 
    Wait for Me: True Stories of War, Love and Rock & Roll, explores family, self, love, loss and love again - told against a backdrop of adversity and warfare.

    Pulp Fiction is a 1994 crime film directed by Quentin Tarantino, known for its nonlinear storytelling and dark humor. The movie weaves together multiple interconnected stories revolving around Los Angeles criminals. It follows hitmen Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield, boxer Butch Coolidge, and gangster Marsellus Wallace, among others, as they navigate a world filled with violence, betrayal, and redemption. The film's sharp dialogue, unconventional structure, and exploration of fate, morality, and human nature set it apart. Blending elements of noir, black comedy, and pop culture references, Pulp Fiction became a landmark in independent cinema. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Jules tells Marcellus to send the "Cavalry" to help him and Vincent when they accidentally shoot Marvin. In "The Hateful Eight," Samuel L. Jackson later portrays a retired cavalry infantryman.” 
      
    “In each of the vignettes, an unexpected incident of death forces the characters to seek refuge somewhere and try to fix the situation. For instance, Butch accidentally kills his opponent in the ring and hides at a hotel from Marcellus, while Vincent kills Marvin and he and Jules go to Jimmy's house to resolve the issue. Mia overdoses on heroin, leading Vincent to take her to Lance's house for help.”
