A dazzling poetic meditation on motherhood, female identity, ennui, and love by Greta Bellamacina, London-based poet, actress, filmmaker, and model.
In Tomorrow's Woman, Greta Bellamacina's bold, exploratory voice combines the vivid imagery of French surrealism and British romantic poetry with a modern, first-person examination of love, gender identity, motherhood, and social issues. Andy Warhol's Interview Magazine writes that 'Bellamacina is garnering critical acclaim for her way with words and her ability to translate the classic poetic form into the contemporary creative landscape.'
This is the first volume of her poetry to be released in the United States.
The audiobook version contains a bonus recording of the author performing selected works with musical backing by Khartoum.
"Suspense" premiered in 1942 and soon became known for its inventive writing and for casting well-known stars in off-beat roles. In 1947, CBS decided to take a gamble: "Suspense" was turned into a full-hour Saturday night feature, hosted by actor and occasional star Robert Montgomery. Many of the hour-long shows were movie adaptations and, with the permission of the original writers, several earlier programs were expanded to accommodate the increased length. Having failed to attract a sponsor, however, the experiment ended in 1948 and, a couple of months later, the show moved back to its cozy Thursday night berth in its earlier half-hour form. "Radio's Outstanding Theater of Thrills" would continue to be heard for the next fourteen years, closing its final curtain in 1962.
In Hollywood's Golden Age stars were everywhere. As well as entertaining us in the local movie theatre many of them came to our home, our very own living room. Here they would perform radio versions of big-name films. Screen Directors Guild Assignment was famous for the lavish use of stars in their productions. Listen now and find out why it really was just like having your very own film studio in your living room.
The short stories written during and about World War I are often over shadowed by the excellent verse of the War Poets.Yet the short story is perhaps their equal in other ways. Within these succinct little time capsules of words are captured ideas, attitudes, feelings and life that are expressed in a few pages just as movingly, imaginatively and tellingly as in any other form.Some of these stories will be familiar but some may not. From Virginia Woolf to Katharine Mansfield and John Buchan to C. E. Montague various writing styles try to make sense of this world at war.Some may do so directly and some obliquely. Some speak of class others of the masses but all reveal their author's intent and their mastery of war and its effects and consequences upon the human condition as told through their words.
Hollywood is indelibly printed in our minds as the 'go-to' place for entertainment and has been for decades.
