Synopsis

Throwing Muses frontwoman and critically acclaimed solo artist Kristin Hersh meditates on the future of her craft in this wry, existential and passionate addition to Melville House UK's new FUTURES series.


Over a long, hot Christmas in Australia, Kristin Hersh considers her future as a songwriter. Is it possible to create music and not show off about it? How can artists establish and refine a following without becoming part of the commercial problem? And just how many times is it healthy to watch It's a Wonderful Life in three weeks?


In The Future of Songwriting, Hersh chooses to interrogate these questions through dialogue. From in-depth conversations with a comedian friend about the similarities between songs and jokes, via a fruitful visit to Sydney's 'bone museums', to a revelation from a herbal healer in New Orleans, she delivers a fierce, funny and existential meditation on the art of the song – and its future.

    Monsters of the Upside Down, beware! Travis Langley (author of the acclaimed Batman and Psychology) returns with a group of expert contributors to explore these and other questions to shine a light on true human nature through the Netflix series and cultural phenomenon Stranger Things. When do feelings of grief, guilt, depression, fear, and isolation tear us down, and how do we transform them into hope, inspiration, forgiveness, acceptance, and motivation to do what's right? Growing up is hard enough without metaphors for the dangers that lurk in life's shadows springing to life in the form of monsters, villains, conspiracies, and enemy soldiers. Stranger Things Psychology: Life Upside Down descends into the dark side of adolescence to find the light on the other side of the ultimate coming-of-age story.

    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Due to threats against Linda Blair from religious extremists who believed the film glorified Satan, Warner Bros. provided her with bodyguards for six months after the film's release.” 
      
    “On the first day of filming the exorcism sequence, Linda Blair's foul-mouthed dialogue so shocked the gentlemanly Max von Sydow that he forgot his lines.” 
      
    “The Exorcist became Warner Bros.' highest-grossing film of all time when adjusted for inflation.” 
      
    “The original teaser trailer, which featured quick flashes of a white-faced demon, was banned in several theaters for being too frightening.” 
      
    “If adjusted for inflation, The Exorcist would still hold the title of the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time.”

    "Sun Tzu on the Art of War: The Oldest Military Treatise in the World" is a classic military text attributed to the ancient Chinese general and strategist Sun Tzu, written in the 5th century BC. This work is often considered one of the foundational texts in military philosophy and strategy. The book emphasizes the importance of strategy over sheer force in warfare, offering insights into planning, tactical maneuvers, and the psychological aspects of conflict, which are relevant for both military leaders and modern strategists. 
    At the beginning of this treatise, readers are introduced to fundamental concepts that shape Sun Tzu's principles of warfare. The opening section highlights the critical importance of understanding the nature of warfare, emphasizing that it is a matter of life and death for the state. Sun Tzu identifies five constant factors that must be considered in military planning: the moral law, heaven (weather), earth (terrain), the commander, and method and discipline. He advocates for strategic planning and adaptability, arguing that victory depends on effectively understanding and applying these elements in command situations. 
    The text also introduces the famous principle that "All warfare is based on deception," establishing a framework for tactical thought that resonates throughout the subsequent chapters.
