The Six
Author: Frank Alessandra
Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 1608448363
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
The Six: A Story about Boys, Laughter, and a Lifelong Friendship is a feel-good memoir about an unforgettable group of high school buddies and their antic-filled coming of age in the 1980s. Frank Alessandra's hilarious stories of youth and camaraderie accurately speak to the less expressive bonds and support structure of male friendship. But even though male friends may not be comfortable openly sharing troubles the way women do, hidden beneath the surface of these fun-filled tales is a heartwarming connection between six boys, as they rely on one another to get through the trials and tribulations of growing into young men. Along this journey, they confront real problems: shattered dreams, deep regrets, heartbreak, and racism. Whenever life presented such a challenge, The Six rallied, and over time, they realize that what they share is about more than just the laughs. In the end, the grown men understand why it is they hang on to each other and the priceless support their thirty-year friendship still provides. "Good male friendships started in childhood can last a lifetime and sustain a man in his later years." - Dr. Geoffrey Greif, University of Maryland School of Social Work "Male friendship can provide support, strengthen identity, and offer meaningful companionship. It's certainly something worth the effort for men to develop and maintain in their lives." - Peter M. Nardi, Ph.D., Sociology, Pitzer College. For more than 20 years, Frank Alessandra has relied on an annual get-together with five childhood buddies to soothe the stresses of adult life. Together, the men reminisce about hilarious events from their younger days. A sentimental desire to share these stories of youth and innocence inspired Alessandra to uncover a passion for storytelling through writing. A financial analyst by trade, he graduated with honors from Moravian College and received an MBA with honors from Lehigh University. He lives in Flemington, New Jersey, and has two teenaged daughters, Alyssa and Jennifer.

Apologize, Apologize!
Author: Elizabeth Kelly
Publisher: Twelve
ISBN: 0446544329
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
A dazzling debut novel about the family that puts the personality in disorder. Apologize, Apologize! takes us into the perversely charmed world of the Flanagans and their son, Collie (who has the questionable good fortune to be named after a breed of dog). Coming of age on Martha's Vineyard, he struggles to find his place within his wildly wealthy, hyper-articulate, resolutely crazy Irish-Catholic family: a philandering father, incorrigible brother, pigeon-racing uncle, radical activist mother, and domineering media mogul grandfather (accused of being a murderer by Collie's mother). It is a world where chaos is exhilaratingly constant, where money is of no object. And yet it is a world where the things Collie wants-understanding, stability, a sense of belonging-cannot be bought for any price. Through his travails, we realize what it really means to grow up and also to grow into one's family: finding to find ways to see them anew, to forgive them, and to be forgiven in turn. In prose that is lively, humorous, and brilliant throughout, Elizabeth Kelly gives us the dysfunctional-family novel to end all dysfunctional-family novels, finding the comedy and pathos in her characters' struggles, and showing beautifully how a family's love can be as trying as it is true.

Languages : en
Pages : 560
Book Description
(Amadeus). His exceptional good looks made him a matinee idol, and Franco Corelli the Prince of Tenors was dubbed "Mr. Soldout" for 20 consecutive years. In 1958, just seven years after beginning his career, he was already the highest-paid tenor in Italy. Following his Met debut in 1961, he was celebrated as the greatest tenor in the world, a position that he retained until his departure from the Met in 1975. His charismatic performances in such operas as La Vestale and Fedora (both in collaboration with Maria Callas), coupled with a formidable mystique, as well as a number of notorious and colorful incidents, including his real-life sword fight with Boris Christoff in Rome, the Callas walkout there, the beating up of a spectator in Naples, and the alleged biting of Birgit Nilsson on a Boston tour of Turandot , created a mania for Corelli. Nearly a decade in the making, this definitive biography is based on the author's extensive research of theater archives and interviews with the opera star's numerous friends, family members, colleagues (Nilsson, Pavarotti, and many others), as well as the management of some of the world's leading opera houses.

John Guare
Author: Jane K. Curry
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313016674
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
Best known for his plays Six Degrees of Separation and The House of Blue Leaves, John Guare is a major figure in the contemporary American theater. Other notable works by Guare include Bosoms and Neglect, Landscape of the Body, and the Lydie Breeze series. His career began with off-off-Broadway experimentation in the sixties and continues through the present. In that time Guare has created many imaginative, eccentric plays that reflect the chaos, violence, and loneliness of life in our time. He frequently combines outrageous farce with painfully serious subject matter. This sourcebook is both a convenient reference and a resource for further investigation of Guare's works. The volume chronicles his achievements with a chronology and biographical essay. It also includes summaries of his published and unpublished plays, overviews of the critical reception of each work, production credits, a primary bibliography of dramatic and nondramatic writings, and extensive annotated bibliographies of reviews and other secondary material.
