  "Joyce Fidler's life is one of many twists and turns and highs and lows. Sometimes she'll shock you; other times she'll bring you to tears. If you have an alcohol or drug addiction problem, her book will uplift you and encourage you to make important changes in your life. It's not a preachy book; instead, it's very honest and forthright." Terry Hassman-Paulin, Editor at Silver Burdett Ginn (ret.) 
  "A memoir of a frenzied woman" Frank Dungan, TV Producer/Emmy Winning Writer 
  "Joyce Fidler tells a mind-blowing story. Being a musician myself who tripped through that era I knew from the first that this was real, but Fidler's unique POV made it a brand-new experience. I didn't think that I could be shocked, but particular parts of her story left me wide-eyed. The spiritual message left me teary-eyed." Gene Herd, Executive Director of the Hollywood Radio and Television Society (ret.)

  INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY QUENTIN TARANTINO 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Inglourious Basterds, directed by Quentin Tarantino, is a World War II film that blends historical fiction with intense action. It follows two main storylines: one about a group of Jewish-American soldiers, led by Lieutenant Aldo Raine, who aim to instill fear in the Nazi army by killing and scalping German soldiers. The other centers on Shosanna Dreyfus, a young Jewish woman who seeks revenge on the Nazis after they kill her family. Tarantino uses themes of vengeance, justice, and survival, blending intense violence with sharp dialogue and dark humor in a unique and stylized narrative. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Inglourious Basterds marked the first Quentin Tarantino film to win an Oscar for acting, with Christoph Waltz receiving the Best Supporting Actor award. Waltz went on to win another Oscar for his role in Django Unchained (2012).” 
    
  “In a roundtable discussion with Brad Pitt, Tarantino revealed that Til Schweiger, who was born and raised in Germany, had always refused to wear a Nazi uniform for a film. However, Schweiger agreed to do so on the condition that he could kill a Nazi in every scene where he wore one.” 
    
  “Tarantino spent nearly a decade working on the script for Inglourious Basterds.” 
    
  “Colonel Hans Landa, played by Christoph Waltz, speaks the most languages in the film, including English, French, German, and Italian.”

  The Mysterious Romance of Murder...

  Why do we keep returning to Agatha Christie's ingenious puzzles and Raymond Chandler's hard-boiled murder mysteries? What do spy thrillers teach us, and what accounts for the renewed popularity of morally ambiguous noirs? In The Mysterious Romance of Murder, the poet and critic David Lehman explores a wide variety of outstanding books and movies—some famous (The Maltese Falcon, Double Indemnity), some known mainly to aficionados—with style, wit, and passion. 
   
   
   
  Lehman revisits the smoke-filled jazz clubs from the classic noir films of the 1940s, the iconic set pieces that defined Hitchcock's America, the interwar intrigue of Eric Ambler's best fictions, and the intensity of attraction between Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, Robert Mitchum and Jane Greer, Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman. He also considers the evocative elements of noir—cigarettes, cocktails, wisecracks, and jazz standards—and offers five original noir poems (including a pantoum inspired by the 1944 film Laura) and ironic astrological profiles of Barbara Stanwyck, Marlene Dietrich, and Graham Greene. Written by a connoisseur with an uncanny feel for the language and mood of mystery, espionage, and noir, The Mysterious Romance of Murder will delight fans of the genre and newcomers alike.

  A lively, engaging guide to music around the world, from prehistory to the present 
   
  Human beings have always made music. Music can move us and tell stories of faith, struggle, or love. It is common to all cultures across the world. But how has it changed over the millennia? 
   
  Robert Philip explores the extraordinary history of music in all its forms, from our earliest ancestors to today’s mass-produced songs. This is a truly global story. Looking to Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, and beyond, Philip reveals how musicians have been brought together by trade and migration and examines the vast impact of colonialism. From Hildegard von Bingen and Clara Schumann to Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin, great performers and composers have profoundly shaped music as we know it. 
   
  Covering a remarkable range of genres, including medieval chant, classical opera, jazz, and hip hop, this Little History shines a light on the wonder of music—and why it is treasured across the world.
