  Damn good coffee, cherry pie, and the “big bang of auteur television” ― why Twin Peaks deserves to be a pop culture classic In 1990, avant garde filmmaker David Lynch (Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Dune, Blue Velvet) and acclaimed television writer Mark Frost (Hill Street Blues) teamed up to create a television show that would redefine what the medium could achieve in a one-hour drama. With Twin Peaks, the duo entranced audiences with the seemingly idyllic town, its quirky characters, and a central mystery ― who killed Laura Palmer? In a town like Twin Peaks, nothing is as it seems, and in Wrapped in Plastic, pop culture writer Andy Burns uncovers and explores the groundbreaking stylistic and storytelling methods that have made the series one of the most influential and enduring shows of the past 25 years.

  Modigliani: Another Portrait

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  As of this writing, I have published thirty-three books. A fair number, when I take a step back and reflect. Most of my work, as readers may know, centers around the cultural arts—music, art, and film. Within this broad spectrum, one figure has continually drawn me back, time and again: the Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani. 
  There is a simple reason for this repetition: among all the artists I have studied and written about, Modigliani is the one I love most. His work, his life, and the tragic poetry that surrounds him continue to fascinate and move me on a deeply personal level. 
  This new work, "Modigliani: Another Portrait," is something very different. It is, in essence, an imagined life—a novel built on the premise of what might have been. What if the hardships that shaped Modigliani’s short life had never occurred? What if his family had not gone bankrupt at his birth? What if he had never suffered from tuberculosis, never succumbed to addiction, never lived in poverty? What if he had never met Jeanne Hébuterne, or perhaps, met someone else entirely? 
  This book dares to ask those counterfactual questions. In doing so, it turns the familiar tragedy inside out and proposes an alternate path—not necessarily a better one, but a different one. In that sense, it is both an homage and a challenge to the narratives we’ve come to accept about artists, genius, and fate. 
  I invite readers to read this story not as a historical account, but as a kind of dream. A parallel portrait. A fictional canvas on which the same soul is painted with a different light.

  A rich, penetrating memoir about the author's relationship with a flawed but influential figure—the painter Lucian Freud—and the satisfactions and struggles of a life lived through art. 
   
   
   
  One of Britain's most important contemporary painters, Celia Paul has written a reflective, intimate memoir of her life as an artist. Self-Portrait tells the artist's story in her own words, drawn from early journal entries as well as memory, of her childhood in India and her days as a art student at London's Slade School of Fine Art; of her intense decades-long relationship with the older esteemed painter Lucian Freud and the birth of their son; of the challenges of motherhood, the unresolvable conflict between caring for a child and remaining committed to art; of the "invisible skeins between people," the profound familial connections Paul communicates through her paintings of her mother and sisters; and finally, of the mystical presence in her own solitary vision of the world around her. 
   
   
   
  Self-Portrait is a powerful, liberating evocation of a life and of a life-long dedication to art. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.
