venue stories

Venue Stories is an anthology of creative non-fiction that remembers, celebrates and reinvigorates our complex and plural relationship with small and independent music spaces. Written by musicians, promoters, fans and academics who have a shared passion for small music venues and musical cultures in all their splendid variety, this anthology features memoir, essays, life writing, historiography and autoethnography. Each chapter is united by a focus on the personal, the sensory and half-remembered. These are stories that cross disciplinary lines and blur distinctions between creativity, reportage and critical analysis. Venue Stories pays a visit to the toilet venues, back rooms and ad-hoc club nights that make up so much of our musical landscape. It spends time in small and local venues and asks what they mean in personal and cultural terms. Writers visit celebrated spots, long forgotten spaces and emergent venues. Whatever the lineage, they are independent, original and wonderfully weird. The stories are memories of seismic gigs and life-altering raves. They are mosaic remembrances and recollections; funny, heart-breaking, rage induced and sometimes a combination of all of these things. This is a collection of stories by and for fans, band members, merch sellers, pint pullers, journalists with a freebie, roadies ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Čitateľsky úspešná zbierka Štefana Moravčíka Moravianska Venuša vyšla roku 1984 vo vydavateľstve Smena v edícii Erb. Knižka vznikala v priaznivej atmosfére, nastolenej knihami Pavla Dvořáka o nových archeologických objavoch na našom území, prácou Jána Dekana Veľká Morava, výstavami sochára Vojtecha Matušinca o hrdinoch a božstvách starých Slovanov. Výnimočne talentovaný básnik obdarený umením hry so slovami, ktorý bol v prvých zbierkach vnímaný ako básnik očarený erosom, básnik prítomnej chvíle, básnik moderných Venuší, sa v tejto zbierke stal básnikom obdobia zápasu nastupujúceho kresťanstva s pohanstvom, básnikom našich dejín z čias Veľkej Moravy. Moravianska venuša obohacuje slovenskú poéziu o zveršovanú dávnu históriu národa. Moravčíkov bezprostredný a pritom mimoriadne vnímavý a poučný ponor do obdobia počiatku našich dejín ocenila v čase vzniku zbierky aj literárna veda a kritika. Básne z tejto zbierky nezostarli, skôr vyzreli, a čitatelia budú aj dnes fascinovaní autorovým ostrým a dramatickým, a súčasne spevavo poetickým, pohľadom "cez kľúčovú dierku" dejín. Spolu s autorom sa čitatelia stanú účastníkmi zápasov, ktoré sa odohrávali na našom území pred viac ako tisícročím. Zbierka básní je zvýraznená kongeniálnymi ilustráciami Miroslava Cipára.

Ward No. 6 and Other Stories 1892-1895 collects stories which show Anton Chekhov beginning to confront complex, ambiguous and often extreme emotions in his short fiction. This Penguin Classics edition is translated with notes by Ronald Wilks, and an introduction by J. Douglas Clayton.These stories from the middle period of Chekhov''s career include - influenced by his own experiences as a doctor - ''Ward No. 6'', a savage indictment of the medical profession set in a mental hospital; ''The Black Monk'', portraying an academic who has strange hallucinations, explores ideas of genius and insanity; ''Murder'', in which religious fervour leads to violence; while in ''The Student'', Chekhov''s favourite story, a young man recounts a tale from the gospels and undergoes a spiritual epiphany. In all the stories collected here, Chekhov''s characters face madness, alienation and frustration before they experience brief, ephemeral moments of insight, often earned at great cost, where they confront the reality of their existence.This is the second in three chronological volumes of Chekhov''s short stories in Penguin Classics.

From award-winning author Jamal Saeed comes a collection of stories written in the dark of a Syrian prison. These gripping tales highlight his work as an activist, artist, and author, shedding light on Syria''s ongoing humanitarian crisis and the enduring power of hope. Jamal Saeed wrote the stories in this collection during different stages of his life, but most originated while he was a prisoner of conscience in one of the worst prisons in the world. Other stories were composed after the Syrian uprising in 2011. One story - written in 2009 when he was still in Syria - is about a mythical olive tree that the Syrian military would eventually destroy. Canada plays a role too: Two of the stories were rewritten after his family finally escaped Syria and landed in Kingston, Ontario. In these stories, reality and imagination coexist, and again and again the reader arrives at the truth by exploring the imaginary. Most of Saeed''s pieces include a poetic scene that enables the reader to engage with various characters'' fresh dreams (or their scattered and shattered dreams, as the case may be). Love, beauty, despair, hope, the longing for freedom, the search for lost time, and the ... Unknown localization key: "more"
