Dream Girl
Author: Laura Lippman
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062390082
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Booklist Editors' Choice! Called One of the Best Mystery Books by NPR, Washington Post, Crime Reads, Library Journal, South Florida Sun-Sentinel, and Dublin City Library! "With this tip of the hat to Stephen King's Misery, Dream Girl is funny and suspenseful, with a dread-worthy final twist." —People “My dream novel. I devoured this in three days. The sharpest, clearest-eyed take on our #MeToo reckoning yet. Plus: enthralling." —Megan Abbott, Edgar Award-winning author of Dare Me and The Fever Following up on her acclaimed and wildly successful New York Times bestseller Lady in the Lake, Laura Lippman returns with a dark, complex tale of psychological suspense with echoes of Misery involving a novelist, incapacitated by injury, who is plagued by mysterious phone calls. Aubrey, the title character of Gerry Andersen’s most successful novel, Dream Girl, is so captivating that Gerry’s readers insist she’s real. Gerry knows she exists only in his imagination. So how can Aubrey be calling Gerry, bed-bound since a freak fall? A virtual prisoner in his penthouse, Gerry is dependent on two women he barely knows: his incurious young assistant, and a dull, slow-witted night nurse. Could the cryptic caller be one of his three ex-wives playing a vindictive trick after all these years? Or is she Margot, an ex-girlfriend who keeps trying to insinuate her way back into Gerry’s life? And why does no one believe that the call even happened? Isolated from the world, drowsy from medication, Gerry slips between reality and dreamlike memories: his faithless father, his devoted mother; the women who loved him, the women he loved. Now here is Aubrey, threatening to visit him, suggesting that Gerry owes her something. Is the threat real or a sign of dementia? Which scenario would he prefer? Gerry has never been so alone, so confused – and so terrified. And then he wakes up to another nightmare—a woman’s dead body next to his bed—and the terrifying uncertainty of whether he is responsible.

Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
I can safely say, on reflection, that I haven't done too badly in my life, as Michael Caine so rightly put it. I have always found pleasure in my work, whether it be as a film star, a graftingtheatre actor, a milkman, a business man or a restaurateur.I have grasped the opportunities that have come my way.One thing has always led to another, right from the beginning when my grandfather first took me to see Shakespeare.I am NOT famous, thank God, and in this day and age I am glad I am not. I still have my privacy.I don't doubt for a moment that things happen for a reason.If there are lessons to be learned from this life I would say:"Go with the flow. Oh, and try to take people as they are until you know any better."Born 17th March 1944 in Southmoor, Berkshire, England, Christian Roberts was educated at Cranleigh School, Surrey, England from 1953 to 1962 and at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, London, England from 1964 to 1966. He debuted in To Sir, with Love (1967). Laurel Award and Filmdom's Famous Fives.

In 1988 he returned to acting and Produced and starred in "Return to the Forbidden Planet" (Laurence Olivier Award 1990) and "From a Jack to a King", both in London's West End.

An Analytical Guide to Television's Battlestar Galactica
Author: John Kenneth Muir
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476606560
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
When the space drama Battlestar Galactica debuted on ABC in 1978, it was expected to be the most popular new program of the year. Instead, it was attacked as a Star Wars rip-off and canceled after a mere 17 stories. The author acknowledges the show was full of dramatic cliches and scientific inaccuracies, but despite these shortcomings, Battlestar Galactica was a dramatically resonant series full of unique and individual characters, such as Commander Adama (Lorne Greene) and ace warrior Captain Apollo (Richard Hatch). The author contends that Battlestar Galactica was a memorable attempt to make science fiction accessible to mainstream television audiences. The brilliant work of artist John Dykstra brought a new world of special effects to network television. Battlestar Galactica also skillfully exploited legends and names from both the Bible and ancient mythology, which added a layer of depth and maturity to the weekly drama.
