Sinopsis

'A unique and electric talent – his work is full of technicolour and imagination. I love this author and I love this book.' – Laura Dockrill
From the moment Andrew 'Pop' Morrison, a.k.a Wonderboy, heard the mesmerising beats of a drumkit through a classroom window, he knew he was born to be a drummer.
When Pop and his band hit the big-time, they find themselves on a one-way path to stardom. Enjoying the wild ride, the whole world is soon at his fingertips – and it's addictive. But when his partying lifestyle takes a dramatic downward turn, he is forced out of his comfort zone and back to square one.
Stuck in limbo, the only thing that comforts him is Drewford Alabama's personal diary, which he discovered in the torn silk lining of a thrifted suitcase, one fateful night in a New York hotel suite. Finding Drewford becomes an obsession and a path back to normality. But with only a name and mysterious messages on an empty page, will he ever find him?

    “This amply illustrated, attractive book is valuable for dress history scholars . . . [an] ideal textbook for courses on clothing and cultural history.” —The Journal of Dress History Ottoman Dress and Design in the West is a richly illustrated exploration of the relationship between West and Near East through the visual culture of dress. Charlotte Jirousek examines the history of dress and fashion in the broader context of western relationships with the Mediterranean world from the dawn of Islam through the end of the twentieth century. The significance of dress is made apparent by the author’s careful attention to its political, economic, and cultural context. The reader comes to understand that dress reflects not simply the self and one’s relation to community but also that community’s relation to a wider world through trade, colonization, religion, and technology. The chapters provide broad historical background on Ottoman influence and European exoticization of that influence, while the captions and illustrations provide detailed studies of illuminations, paintings, and sculptures to show how these influences were absorbed into everyday living. Through the medium of dress, Jirousek details a continually shifting Ottoman frontier that is closely tied to European and American history. In doing so, she explores and celebrates an essential source of influence that for too long has been relegated to the periphery.

    Late summer heading into early autumn/fall is a such beautiful time of the year. You can feel everything growing still and soft; nature is slowing down and people are getting cozy. The most stunning colours can be found outdoors at this time. 
    Despite the natural beauty and your looking forward to the coziness of winter, you find that a few short months later things have gone awry. You have ploughed headlong into winter without design or plan; you are wearing the same clothes as last year because you have not put thought into your wardrobe; you have put on weight from indiscriminate eating and are complaining in your head, or worse, out loud that ‘it’s cold today’. This was me! 
    Many warm-blooded creatures hibernate when it is cold out and go with their natural instincts by doing so. They don't enter the spring season stressed; rather, animals waking up from hibernation are coming to sleepily, well rested and ready for the warmer season; so, why don’t we? We wouldn't go to sleep for months on end, but perhaps we can take a leaf out of their book and make winter a mental spa time of rejuvenation, beauty and pleasure. 
    It is easy to be enthusiastic about the winter season when the leaves are turning. Fall fashions are always fun to look forward to. We can rekindle our love for the colours of plum, navy and camel at this time of year. But a few months later the novelty has already worn off! 
    Discover strategies for not just surviving, but thriving this winter; on how to have a chic and beautiful winter season and emerge, like a butterfly ready for a gorgeous spring and summer. 
    If you are ready to change how you feel about the winter season, treat yourself to a copy of ‘How to be Chic in the Winter’!

    In freewheeling 1920s Paris, Kiki de Montparnasse captivated as a nightclub performer, sold out gallery showings of her paintings, starred in Surrealist films, and shared drinks and ideas with the likes of Jean Cocteau and Marcel Duchamp. Her best-selling memoir—featuring an introduction by Ernest Hemingway—made front-page news in France and was immediately banned in America. All before she turned thirty. 
     
     
     
    Kiki was once the symbol of bohemian Paris. But if she is remembered today, it is only for posing for several now-celebrated male artists, including Amedeo Modigliani and Alexander Calder, and especially photographer Man Ray. 
     
     
     
    Kiki and Man Ray met in 1921 during a chance encounter at a café. What followed was an explosive decade-long connection, both professional and romantic, during which the couple grew and experimented as artists, competed for fame, and created many of the shocking images that cemented Man Ray's reputation as one of the great artists of the modern era. 
     
     
     
    Charting their volatile relationship, award-winning historian Mark Braude illuminates for the first time Kiki's seminal influence not only on Man Ray's art, but on the culture of 1920s Paris and beyond.

Drawing on Zanuck's own correspondence, author Rudy Behlmer presents a from-the-top look at the elements that went into making a feature film during the heyday of the Hollywood studio system. Full of secrets and surprises, this treasure trove of legend and lore— read by Zanuck' s son, Oscar-winning producer Richard D. Zanuck— is as entertaining as it is informative.
