THE MOST COMPLETE BIOGRAPHY EVER WRITTEN! Fully authorized, meticulously revised and expanded An astounding 730-page in-depth look into this screen star's public and private life with 442 illustrations, many never-before published Three-time award-winning biography finalist for the International Book Awards, Best Book Awards, and Foreword INDIES Best Book of the Year Award In the 1940s, Veronica Lake stirred a nation of filmgoers into a frenzy with her memorable screen performances and famous hairdo draped over one eye. The sultry blonde bombshell rocketed to stardom for Paramount Pictures only for it all to spiral out of control and be over in a flash. By age twenty-nine, Veronica was washed up with her career on the ash heap of movie history. Her climb to the top started with her dominating mother pouring everything into her daughter's future for the sake of her career until ending tragically after years of personal struggles with paranoid schizophrenia and alcoholism that set her on a path of self-destruction and put her so far out of reach that not even her mother's love could save her in the end. Fully revised and expanded, this authorized, intimate biography, featuring exclusive interviews with Lake's mother, friends and co-workers, tells the entire, unvarnished truth of the rise and fall of one of the silver screen's most beloved beauties. Copious new discoveries, revelations, personal stories and insights; scores of previously unknown unproduced and rumored starring feature films and television projects and undocumented radio and television appearances; and a full accounting of her off-Broadway and legitimate stage work in the United States and abroad illuminate this richly detailed 730-page volume, including 442 illustrations-many never-before published-from private and personal collections, in what is the most complete record ever written about this fallen star's life and career.

In the early 2020s Australia was gripped by a madness which was spiritual, administrative, political, social and judicial, making headlines around the world.

Résumé Confronté à un mouvement insurrectionnel qui embrasait tout le pays, le gouvernement de Nguenda était plongé dans la tourmente. Alors qu'il était incapable d'améliorer les conditions d'existence de son peuple depuis des décennies, il désigna Imbwenguili, son irréductible adversaire politique, comme étant l'instigateur de ce soulèvement qu'il n'arrivait plus à maîtriser. Voulant à tout prix se maintenir aux affaires, il ordonna à un commando lourdement armé de mener nuitamment une action punitive contre le domicile de l'opposant. Ce dernier fut abattu froidement avec les membres de sa famille pendant l'opération, à l'exception d'Ivindza, son fils aîné, qui avait réussi à échapper à cet odieux massacre.Grâce au soutien de nombreux partisans de l'opposition fidèles à son père, le jeune homme fut exfiltré du pays pour s'exiler aux États-Unis, dans la ville de Memphis où l'attendait une importante diaspora nguendanaise. Là-bas, il sera question pour lui de fourbir les armes, en vue de lancer la croisade contre le système prédateur et inhumain de Nguenda.>Auteur: Jean François Moukagni est un écrivain Gabonais originaire de Ndéndé, Chef-lieu du Département de Dola situé dans la Province de la Ngounié, dans le sud-ouest du Gabon.Retraité, il consacre désormais son temps à l'écriture, une passion qui l'habite depuis la publication de son premier roman à succès: Destins en flammes.

Les revers d'Amina est un roman dans lequel se disent bien de choses à propos du mariage appelé, en arabe, amchilini qui signifie littéralement: prenez-moi . Cette forme de mariage est pratiquée au Tchad, mais pas dans toutes les communautés. A notre connaissance, elle se pratique dans le Guéra et dans le Baguirmi; mais il n'est pas exclu qu'elle se pratique dans d'autres régions que nous ignorons, que ce soit au Tchad ou dans d'autres pays; toute chose qui pourrait donner de la force à la théorie des mêmes causes qui engendrent les mêmes effets. La question qu'un certain nombre de gens ont l'habitude de se poser est la suivante: est-ce que ce mariage aura des conséquences heureuses sur la vie des mariés ?

Parece que en la actualidad, al menos en España, se ha impuesto la moda de hacer una poesía que ha heredado de las vanguardias el verso libre o suelto, y de la tradición anterior, la temática evocativa de la experiencia del yo teñida de sentimentalidad. En este libro, Fortuny hace una propuesta diferente e incluso inversa: usar el verso tradicional para tratar asuntos preñados de futuro, como pueden serlo los descubrimientos científicos de los siglos XX y el corriente, con las implicaciones filosóficas que de ahí se deduzcan, porque es obvio que el viejo materialismo mecanicista, negador del espíritu y la conciencia en tanto que meros epifenómenos, producto del sistema nervioso, no se sostiene. No es solo que lo único que exista sea la materia y que lo demás sea puro y aparente fenómeno y cuento, sino que el cuento está resultando ser la existencia absoluta de la materia, que no sería otra cosa que una abstracción de lo que todos los fenómenos tienen en común. Y así, con Sheldrake y Kastrup, quedaría resuelto el problema del dualismo cartesiano. El libro, además, se cierra con una voz de alarma sobre los peligros y responsabilidades que implican la nueva era que ha empezado con la globalización: el Antropoceno.

"The queen of travel writing." Amazon reviewer"Travel writing at its best." Peter Kerr, best-selling author of Snowball Oranges"Hilarious book. It should be prescribed on the National Health Service!" Amazon reviewer From the author of the Amazon best-selling Greek travel memoir, Things Can Only Get Feta, comes a new collection of funny and candid tales. Wake Me Up For The Elephants has already reached #1 best-seller status in the UK, US and Australia in travel categories and has the humour and flavour of Marjory's Greek memoirs but with a broader canvas: Africa, Fiji, Greece, Australia, Scotland and Ireland. They are exotic, romantic locations and the stories are based on real journeys, some of which were taken as journalistic assignments. They introduce the reader to wild locations, eccentric fellow travellers and hilarious, often scary, situations: dodging wild animals on safari and a male stalker in Mombasa; dance torment in tropical Fiji; a supernatural mystery in the Australian bush; a beach gallop in Ireland led by a lobster fisherman; a boating mash-up on the exquisite Greek island of Paxos. But this collection is not all fun and frolics. Some of the stories, particularly from Scotland, are undercut by nostalgia as the author grapples with the notion of a homeland and where a restless traveller belongs when the wandering, and the laughter, stops. This book also stands as a fascinating prequel to the Greek travel series, revealing the author's unforgettable and funny adventures just before embarking on her four-year Big Fat Greek Odyssey.WHAT READERS LOVE ABOUT Wake Me Up For The Elephants: "Keenly observed, fun-filled tales, yet with a beautifully understated appreciation of life's poignant moments, too."

Goodreads reviewer"Marjory tells a good story with a journalist's eye for mood and detail." Alex Martin, Anglo Hellenic review."I loved the characters and the enthusiasm that drives the narrative." Mark Douglas-Home, best-selling author"Part travel, part history, this very personal memoir (Things Can Only Get Feta) is a love letter to the characters that inhabit their little bit of paradise." Jill's Book Café."I have read a lot of travel books and Marjory McGinn is one of the best writers in this genre." Amazon reviewer"I could read this series forever. The author's books have brought humour and knowledge." Amazon reviewer"What a wonderful storyteller Marjory is." Amazon reviewer
