Wie konnte ein Campingausflug blo so schief gehen? Caroline Park ist nach Cherry Falls gezogen, um ihre Nichte aufzuziehen. Es sollte ein Neuanfang sein, ein Neuanfang fur sie beide.

Science, medicine, and attention to healthy living styles has created an ever-enlarging geriatric population. To arrive at this stage of development in reasonably good health is a blessing. Even so, one cannot escape the arrival of gremlins that enter the body uninvited and proceed to make renovations without permission. For example, they step in, mess around with hormones and cause hair follicles to pop out of a womans face and chin. Men may begin to bald while their ears sprout matted hair causing diminished hearing. 80? Oh No! presents an intriguing story about the aging experience with a powerful, authorial, bold, and endlessly entertaining voice. Whether discussing sexuality or mortality, this work is uniquely insightful and poignant. The writing style is unusual and dynamic. The author hopes the reader will take a walk in her shoes and share her thoughts and feelings throughout the reading of each chapter. This book is perfect for gift-giving and provocative reading for book club members.

Die 1980er Jahre - ein Jahrzehnt erfullt von unvergessener Musik, ebenso schragen wie bunten Klamotten, die Zeit, als Nachmittage im Kino noch einem (uberaus erschwinglichen) Abenteuer glichen, Jahre mit VHS-Kassetten, verschworenen Video-Abenden und Videotheken, die oft einem Wunderland entsprungen zu sein schienen. Damals musste man in der Regel jahrelang darauf warten, bis man sich sein Kino-Erlebnis endlich nach Hause fur den heimischen Videorekorder holen konnte. Eine beliebte Alternative waren indes die Romane zu den jeweiligen Filmen, Adaptionen, die zeitnah ein Wiedersehen mit Leinwald-Helden und -Heldinnen ermoglichten: eine Tradition, die im Zeitalter von DVD, Blu-ray und Streaming vollig in Vergessenheit geraten ist.Der Apex-Verlag mochte mit dem Band 80s Action diese Nostalgie wiederbeleben: mit den Romanen zu den Filmen Mad Max 3 - Jenseits der Donnerkuppel von Joan D. Vinge, Top Gun von Mike Cogan, Beverly Hills Cop 2 von Robert Tine, Lethal Weapon von Joel Norst und Lost Boys von Craig Shaw Gardner.Lassen Sie die Zeitreise beginnen...

The 80s were a decade of musical change. As the 70s disco stranglehold was broken, rock, gay, dance and pop music competed with funk and soul, romantic ballads and political protest, computerised music and controversy. The glamour of costume, greasepaint and cross-dressing was put to good use by New Romantic groups like Spandau Ballet, Duran Duran, Soft Cell, Culture Club and the Human League, while the world also looked to Britain for the most exciting pop acts such as the multi-million-selling Wham!, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Eurythmics and the Pet Shop Boys. Mainstream dance music was at its peak, spearheaded by Stock, Aitken and Waterman, and their stable of artists, including Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Rick Astley, were all chart-topping names. From the USA came the artist of the decade, Michael Jackson, while Madonna and Whitney Houston provided the Girl Power of the 80s. The decade also saw the philanthropic side of the music industry as the stars responded to famine in Ethiopia with the charity records Do They Know Its Christmas? and We Are The World. The80s catered for all musical tastes, no matter how bizarre, and was far more eclectic than any other decade. From bubble-gum pop with Bucks Fizz to the stadium rock of Simple Minds,80s Chart-Toppers brings a comprehensive year-by-year, month-by-month guide to the hottest sounds of the decade.

All three-dimensional objects can be experienced in two dimensions: it just takes some careful unpicking of the seams. Witty, comic, plaintive, touching, acerbic, droll, cavalier, caffeinated, irreverent, stringent: Austerities, the mind-altering substantial debut from Sam Riviere, seems to achieve the impossible in being all things at once. Initially conceived as a response to the austerity measures implemented by the coalition government in 2011, the poems quickly began taking on a life in kind: cutting themselves on levels of sentiment, structure and even subject matter. Not content to merely build a series of freethinking poems, these remarkable pieces seem eagerly and mischievously to analyze their moment of creation, then weigh their worth, then consign their excess to the recycling bin thereafter. Experience is speedy, the poems seem to say, so dizzyingly fast that the poetry will inevitably be running to catch up - often arriving at a scene the moment after the moment has gone. The effect is as funny and it is startling, beguiling as it is surprising, and makes Austerities a vivid reminder that deprivation, as Leonard Cohen put it, can be the mother of poetry.
