Book Description

“Don't you ever get sick of it?” “Being the only one?” “Yeah. Being the Ambassador of Blackness?” Abeni is new to college. She's putting purple braids in Jasmine's hair and giving her 'the talk', opening Jasmine's mind to new ways of seeing the world - and the world seeing both of them. A new play by Olivia Hannah, about fitting in and standing out. Featured as part of BBC Arts Light Up Festival and played on BBC Radio, Braids was longlisted for the Alfred Fagon Award 2018. “Not that I'm saying I know more about you than you do, I'm not saying, that's not what I'm saying, like, at all! Just that I do know you better than maybe you know yourself.” Will and Bean have been friends forever. ?But they're not kids anymore and the adult world is a scary place. In a tent in County Durham, a Duke of Edinburgh Award trip becomes more complicated than either of them planned. Cheer Up Slug is a new play by Tamsin Daisy Rees, about boundaries and behaviour. This double-edition of debut plays by North-East based writers was published to coincide with the premiere at Live Theatre in October 2021.

Book Description

Robert A. Winston had a long a distinguished career as an aviator in the US Navy between 1935 and 1950. He wrote a number of excellent and fascinating books on his experiences in the Navy before and during World War II. This volume details his adventures as a test pilot flying planes for the Brewster aircraft company, chiefly in Finland in 1940, as the war in Europe gained momentum and the unprepared democracies fell under the weight of Nazi attacks. Forced to flee through Belgium, France and finally Spain, Lt. Winston finally made it back to the United States before being posted to the Pacific as a carrier-borne squadron commander.

Book Description

Imagine standing in a child's room at your mid-point of life, staring into a mirror of truth and realizing that the child you last saw through that looking glass now has thinning hair, bulging love handles, and an aching back. You may be halfway through life, but are you half-through living? Robin T.W. Yuan attacks mid-life and its fears with vigor, humor, and truth in a book of insightful and entertaining vignettes about foggy memory, failing vision, fading dreams, and an aging physique. Sometimes sweet, sometimes poignant, occasionally biting, but always truthful, Cheer Up . . . You're Only Half Dead is written with the eyes of a child, the mind of a philosopher, the artistry of a plastic surgeon, the grace of an accomplished violinist, and the insight of an enlightened middle-ager. Readers young, old, and in-between will nod with understanding and laugh with familiarity, while being encouraged to squeeze all they can out of life.
