Описание: CWA Gold Dagger winner Peter Dickinson is back: An Indian doctor joins the English underground to fight racial oppression Dr. P. P. Humayan expects prejudice from the English. Growing up in Bombay, he was raised on stories of the injustices of life in Britain, where racial status is marked on ones papers and anyone of Celtic descent is born with green skin and forced to live in walled-off ghettos. But when he travels to London to announce that he has solved the genetic mystery of why the Celts are born green, he is shocked by the systems brutality. Only one English girl is kind to him-and she will soon find herself in mortal peril. When his host family is murdered, Humayan slips underground, joining a small band of rebels who would do anything to see racial equality restored to England. There are powerful men working to maintain the sinister status quo, and bringing them down will be the toughest problem this mathematician has ever faced. There are few more ingenious writers of crime fiction than Peter Dickinson. -London Evening Standard Peter Dickinson is a national treasure. -The Independent The works of British mystery writer Peter Dickinson are like caviar-an acquired taste that can easily lead to addiction. -Time A whopper . . . Fancy flies wild and the reading is hilarious. -Vogue A wonderful political whimsy. -The Oregonian One of our truly inventive writers teases the imagination and intellect simultaneously. -Kirkus Reviews Clever, funny, adult. -Newsday This man has an unfailing gift for the bizarre. -Louis Untermeyer Peter Dickinson was born in Africa but raised and educated in England. From 1952 to 1969 he was on the editorial staff of Punch, and since then has earned his living writing fiction of various kinds for children and adults. His books have been published in several languages throughout the world. The recipient of many awards, Dickinson has been shortlisted nine times for the prestigious Carnegie Medal for childrens literature and was the first author to win it twice. The author of twenty-one crime and mystery novels for adults, Dickinson was also the first to win the Gold Dagger of the Crime Writers Association for two books running: The Glass-Sided Ants Nest (1968) and The Old English Peepshow (1969). A collection of Dickinsons poetry, The Weir, was published in 2007. His latest book, In the Palace of the Khans, was published in 2012 and was nominated for the Carnegie Medal. Dickinson has served as chairman of the Society of Authors and is a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. He was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 2009 for services to literature.

New York Times Bestseller

"Illuminating and very entertaining...a compelling read about someone who is much more than just the guy who sings for Iron Maiden." --Loudwire

A long-awaited memoir from the larger-than-life, multifaceted lead vocalist of Iron Maiden, one of the most successful, influential and enduring rock bands ever.

Pioneers of Britain's nascent Rock & Metal scene back in the late 1970s, Iron Maiden smashed its way to the top, thanks in no small part to the high-octane performances, operatic singing style, and stage presence of its second, but twice-longest-serving, lead singer, Bruce Dickinson. As Iron Maiden's front man--first from 1981 to 1993, and then from 1999 to the present--Dickinson has been, and remains, a man of legend.

But OTT front man is just one of the many hats Bruce wears. In addition to being one of the world's most storied and well-respected singers and songwriters, he is an airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, motivational speaker, beer brewer, novelist, radio presenter, and film scriptwriter. He has also competed as a world-class level fencer. Often credited as a genuine polymath Bruce, in his own words (and handwritten script in the first instance ), sets forth many personal observations guaranteed to inspire curious souls and hard-core fans alike.

Dickinson turns his unbridled creativity, passion, and anarchic humour to reveal some fascinating stories from his life, including his thirty years with Maiden, his solo career, his childhood within the eccentric British school system, his early bands, fatherhood and family, and his recent battle with cancer.

Bold, honest, intelligent and very funny, his memoir is an up-close look inside the life, heart, and mind of one of the most unique and interesting men in the world; a true icon of rock.

However, in her mid-twenties she began to grow reclusive, and eventually she rarely descended from her room in her father's house. She spent most of her time working on her poetry, largely without encouragement or real interest from her family and peers, and died at age fifty-five. Only a handful of her 1,775 poems had been published during her lifetime. When her poems finally appeared after her death, readers immediately recognized an artist whose immense depth and stylistic complexities would one day make her the most widely recognized female poet to write in the English language. &&LP&&RDickinson's poetry is remarkable for its tightly controlled emotional and intellectual energy. The longest poem covers less than two pages. Yet in theme and tone her writing reaches for the sublime as it charts the landscape of the human soul. A true innovator, Dickinson experimented freely with conventional rhythm and meter, and often used dashes, off rhymes, and unusual metaphors--techniques that strongly influenced modern poetry. Dickinson's idiosyncratic style, along with her deep resonance of thought and her observations about life and death, love and nature, and solitude and society, have firmly established her as one of America's true poetic geniuses.&&L/P&&R&&LDIV&&R&&LB&&RIncludes an index of first lines.&&L/B&&R&&L/DIV&&R&&LDIV&&R&&LP&&R&&LB&&RRachel Wetzsteon&&L/B&&R is Assistant Professor of English at William Paterson University.

Описание:

The long-awaited memoir from the larger-than-life, multifaceted lead vocalist of Iron Maiden, one of the most influential and enduring heavy metal bands in the world.

Pioneers of Britain's New Wave of metal scene back in the late 1970s, Iron Maiden smashed its way to the top, thanks in no small part to the high-octane performances, operatic singing style, and booze-fueled antics of its lead singer, Bruce Dickinson. As Iron Maiden's front man--first from 1981 to 1993, and then from 1999 to the present--Dickinson has been a man of myth and mayhem: a larger-than-life icon to metalheads around the world.

In addition to his successful music career as one of the most storied and well-respected singers and songwriters, he is an airline pilot, aviation entrepreneur, motivational speaker, beer brewer, novelist, BBC radio show presenter, and scriptwriter. He's also competed as a world-class level fencer. A true renaissance man who has pursued life with singular gusto, he continues to inspire fans on-stage and off.

Now, Dickinson turns his unbridled creativity, energy, and passion to the story of his life, including his thirty years with Maiden, his solo career, the weird, sometimes dark, and often wonderful places his insatiable curiosity, talent, and drive has led him, his turbulent childhood, his university days and early bands, fatherhood and family, and his recent battle with cancer. Dickinson lays it on the line--the gigs, the music, the influences, the price and perks of fame, the Ozzfest dustup, and more. Bold, honest, and as propulsive and entertaining as his performances, this memoir is an up-close look inside the life, heart, and mind of one of the most interesting men in the world and a true legend of metal.
