With a backdrop of historic reportage, fortifying the delicately woven story that will make you recall the sparkling splash of a first glance of a person so compelling and wantonly hot to the rapid progression of star-crossed moments when the world would stop at the touch of a hand or the first touch of soft lips that ignite every physical sense and pulsating emotion is the heart-stopping romance of sexagenarians, Denise and Kyle.

Exile on Main Street
Author: Robert Greenfield
Publisher: Da Capo Press
ISBN: 9780306815638
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Recorded during the blazing hot summer of 1971 at Villa Nellcôte, Keith Richards's seaside mansion in southern France, Exile on Main Street has been hailed as one of the greatest rock records of all time. Yet its improbable creation was difficult, torturous...and at times nothing short of dangerous. In self-imposed exile, the Stones-along with wives, girlfriends, and an unrivaled crew of hangers-on-spent their days smoking, snorting, and drinking whatever they could get their hands on, while at night, Villa Nellcôte's basement studio became the crucible in which creative strife, outsized egos, and all the usual byproducts of the Stones' legendary hedonistic excess fused into something potent, volatile, and enduring. Here, for the first time, is the season in hell that produced Exile on Main Street.

Main Street
Author: Carole Rifkind
Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Urban history can be "read" on Main Street and every Main Street has its own story to tell. Many factors shaped urban America--the expanding frontier, the development of transportation, industrialization and the exploration of natural resources and suburbanization, to name a few--and these were reflected in the appearance of the landscape, the impact of built forms and the patterns of growth and change. Covering from 1850 to 1975 and containing 259 contemporary photographs of American villages, towns and cities, this book is a vivid profile of architecture and building styles, of life, activity and commerce. The author explores the roots and traditions of American town-building, showing historical, regional and cultural similarities and variations.--From publisher description.

A Theory of Moments
Author: James Knight
Publisher: Hachette Australia
ISBN: 0733625975
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
Approaching forty, with the predictable mortgage, career and comfortable surburan lifestyle, James Knight knew he was one of the lucky ones. He loved his wife and he had his health (occasionally the black dog would bite, but he'd learnt to manage this...most of the time), yet something wasn't quite right. Married less than a year, he and Clare weren't finding time for each other or themselves. Surely there must be more to life than the daily commute, the occasional trip away and rampant consumerism? The death of a good friend's mother gave James the perspective he needed to set out on a year-long journey through Latin America and Africa with Clare, doing voluntary work, learning Spanish and dancing whereever and whenever they could. This trip would change their lives in ways they never expected, teaching them that cherishing every moment is what matters above all else.
