egyptian jukebox: A Multitude of Sins Richard Ford, 2007-12-18 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • PEN/MALAMUD AWARD WINNER • A masterful collection of short stories that explores intimacy and love and their failures—from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Independence Day and “one of the country’s best writers” (San Francisco Chronicle). With remarkable insight and candor, Richard Ford examines liaisons in and out and to the sides of marriage. An illicit visit to the Grand Canyon reveals a vastness even more profound. A couple weekending in Maine try to recapture the ardor that has disappeared from their life together. And on a spring evening, a young wife tells her husband of her affair with the host of the dinner party they’re about to join. The rigorous intensity Ford brings to these vivid, unforgettable dramas marks this as his most powerfully arresting book to date–confirming the judgment of the New York Times Book Review that “nobody now writing looks more like an American classic.” |

When Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson released Dungeons & Dragons in 1974, they created the first roleplaying game of all time.

egyptian jukebox: Murder Done to Death John Kennedy Melling, 1996-04-02 An art form comes of age when it is imitated, then parodied and finally repeated in pastiche. Crime and detective fiction is now so well established in different formats that it lends itself easily to these literary forms. After a brief history of the genre is an analysis of a large number of parody books and short stories, with details of correspondence and interviews the writer has had with masters of the craft, like Georges Simenon and Margaret Millar. The next section covers those books written by teams of six or more crime writers. The pastiche section deals with a number of books and short stories in-depth, crime stories for younger readers, and the exploits of literary detectives and criminals. Do It Yourself Sleuthing covers dossiers, games and books of solvable short crime stories. This leads naturally to all forms of parody and pastiche in films, theater, television and radio, including stage and film musicals. |

egyptian jukebox: Literatur, Buchgestaltung und Buchkunst Monika Schmitz-Emans, 2019-11-18 Die Materialität des Buchs, seine Gestaltungsformen und Funktionen werden zum einen durch Künstlerbücher erkundet, die sich seit den 1960er Jahren als eigenständige künstlerisches Genre profiliert haben, zum anderen sind sie aber auch Gegenstand literarischer Reflexion – in Werken, für die ihre jeweilige Buchgestalt konstitutiv ist. Das Handbuch widmet sich den vielfältigen Spielformen literarischer und künstlerischer Gestaltung des Buchs und ihren konvergenten Interessen. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf solchen Künstlerbüchern, die in produktiver Auseinandersetzung mit literarischen Texten entstanden sind und diese durch buchgestalterische Mittel inszenieren, transformieren und reflektieren. Gegliedert in fünf Teile, bietet das Handbuch in Teil A Überblicksdarstellungen und Beispiele zu Themen der Buchreflexion wie Materialität, Visualität und Schriftlichkeit. Teil B gilt der literarisch-künstlerischen Rezeption historischer Buchtypen wie Atlas, Bestiarium und Enzyklopädie, Teil C ästhetischen Aspekten des Kinder- und des Bilderbuchs.

egyptian jukebox: The Enemy in Contemporary Film Martin Löschnigg, Marzena Sokołowska-Paryż, 2018-08-21 Culture and conflict inevitably go hand in hand. The very idea of culture is marked by the notion of difference and by the creative, fraught interaction between conflicting concepts and values. The same can be said of all key ideas in the study of culture, such as identity and diversity, memory and trauma, the translation of cultures and globalization, dislocation and emplacement, mediation and exclusion. This series publishes theoretically informed original scholarship from the fields of literary and cultural studies as well as media, visual, and film studies. It fosters an interdisciplinary dialogue on the multiple ways in which conflict supports and constrains the production of meaning, on how conflict is represented, how it relates to the past and projects the present, and how it frames scholarship within the humanities.

egyptian jukebox: Redirection Gregory Ashe, 2021-06-29 When it comes to your ex, nothing is ever easy. The Borealis boys are settling into their new normal, or at least into their new digs. But when North’s soon-to-be (please-let-it-be-soon) ex-husband, Tucker, is arrested and charged with murder, everything goes sideways. Hired by Tucker’s parents, North and Shaw begin looking for proof that Tucker is innocent, in spite of the evidence against him. When they find seemingly incriminating photos hidden in Tucker’s BMW, North is convinced that someone is trying to frame Tucker—and might get away with it. But the cast of alternate suspects presents its own challenges: an estranged son, a betrayed wife, and North and Shaw’s close-knit circle of friends from college—men who had their own connections to the victim, and who had their own reasons for wanting him dead. A threatening email suggests that the motive, whatever it might be, lies buried in the past, in a relationship gone wrong. The question is, which one? When Tucker is poisoned, North and Shaw realize that the killer isn’t finished. Clearing Tucker’s name won’t be enough; they must find the killer before someone else dies. And to do so, they will have to unearth truths from their own pasts. |

egyptian jukebox: American Smoke Iain Sinclair, 2014-04-15 The visionary writer Iain Sinclair turns his sights to the Beat Generation in America in his most epic journey yet How best to describe Iain Sinclair? asks Robert Macfarlane in The Guardian. A literary mud-larker and tip-picker? A Travelodge tramp (his phrase)? A middle-class dropout with a gift for bullshit (also his phrase)? A toxicologist of the twenty-first-century landscape? A historian of countercultures and occulted pasts? An intemperate WALL-E, compulsively collecting and compacting the city's textual waste? A psycho-geographer (from which term Sinclair has been rowing away ever since he helped launch it into the mainstream)? He's all of these, and more. Now, for the first time, the enigma that is Iain Sinclair lands on American shores for his long-awaited engagement with the memory-filled landscapes of the American Beats and their fellow travelers. A book filled with bad journeys and fated decisions, American Smoke is an epic walk in the footsteps of Malcolm Lowry, Charles Olson, Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs, Gary Snyder, and others, heated by obsession (the Old West, volcanoes, Mexico) and enlivened by false memories, broken reports, and strange adventures. With American Smoke, Sinclair confirms his place as the most innovative of our chroniclers of the contemporary. |
