Book Description
Adapted for the stage from the best-selling memoir, The Speckled People tells a profoundly moving story of a young boy trapped in a language war. Set in 1950s Ireland, this is a gripping, poignant, and at times very funny family drama of homesickness, control and identity. As a young boy, Hugo Hamilton struggles with what it means to be speckled, "half and half... Irish on top and German below." An idealistic Irish father enforces his cultural crusade by forbidding his son to speak English while his German mother tries to rescue him with her warm-hearted humour and uplifting industry. The boy must free himself from his father and from bullies on the street who persecute him with taunts of Nazism. Above all he must free himself from history and from the terrible secrets of his mother and father before he can find a place where he belongs. Surrounded by fear, guilt, and frequently comic cultural entanglements, Hugo tries to understand the differences between Irish history and German history and to turn the strange logic of what he is told into truth. It is a journey that ends in liberation but not before the long-buried secrets at the back of the parents' wardrobe have been laid bare.

Book Description
The first GSX-R was created in 1985 as a groundbreaking departure from the ponderous sportbikes of the day. That revolutionary motorcycle took a time-honored racing credo to heart: light is right. (And another one: It can never be too fast.) Never before had the performance and design of a race bike been so faithfully carried over to the street. In the seven generations since, Suzuki has remained true to the concept of the original GSX-R: to build the most serious, track-worthy sportbike. What's more, the company's engineers have been relentless in their pursuit to refine and improve the bike.
