Описание: In the early 1990s, Stone Temple Pilots not U2, not Nirvana, not Pearl Jam was the hottest band in the world. STP toppled such megabands as Aerosmith and Guns N Roses on MTV and the "Billboard "charts. Lead singer Scott Weiland became an iconic front man in the tradition of Mick Jagger, David Bowie, and Robert Plant. Then, when STP imploded, it was Weiland who emerged as the emblem of rock star excess, with his well-publicized drug busts and trips to rehab. Weiland has since made a series of stunning comebacks, fronting the supergroup Velvet Revolver, releasing solo work, and reuniting with Stone Temple Pilots. He has prevailed as a loving, dedicated father, as well as a business-savvy artist whose well of creativity is far from empty. "Not Dead & Not for Sale "is a hard rock memoir to be reckoned with a passionate, insightful, and at times humorous book that reads with extraordinary narrative force."
Описание: These days, thoughts of life on the farm are filled with the picturesque country setting, raising kids away from the big city and relaxing on the porch playing chess or surfing the web. Many people dream of living where they don't have neighbors, and the only grind they experience is for their coffee. It hasn't always been so idealistic, and life in the country even today can be a lot more work than play. Today, it's often a choice made by a family, rather than the only choice as it was in the past. Farm life is hard work and there are valuable life lessons everywhere. In Smell the Dirt, author Leon Weiland shares his experiences growing up on a farm in rural Nebraska. From a young age, Weiland found himself fighting the inevitable forces of poverty, abuse, and despair, never wanting those to be part of his future. Then when he found the love of his life, Jean, they married and began their family. After the complicated birth of their fifth child, Jean was stricken with a condition that left her weak and chronically in pain. Leon searched for answers for his family. Many of those answers came in the form of a crude fiberglass door. He started Weiland Doors from virtually nothing, to where decades later those doors are specified by international companies. Smell the Dirt is an inspiring read not only that it tells a story of grit, determination, attitude, and thankfulness, but poignantly conveys these lessons in a straight forward and sometimes brutal manner. In a time when many are striving to discover their way, Smell the Dirt can be an essential part of your own personal journey.

Описание: Winner of the Negative Capability Press Book Competition Follow "Sister Nun"as she escapes over the wall of her convent (even though she has, in no way, been held captive) and read as she explores her identity, sexuality, and the path to enlightenment by wrestling alligators, vacationing in hell, and traveling through time and space during her 215 year lifespan. "Weiland's book is polished, unusual and lovely - but it is even more than that. I don't remember when I read a book of poetry that I couldn't put down. Sister Nun is an unforgettable character - and this book that bears such a strong character's name reminds me of Jane Eyre, Emma, Anna Kerenina, and Lolita deserves to be in such elite company." - Amy King, author of The Missing Museum and I Want to Make You Safe; winner of the 2015 Tarpaulin Sky Book Prize.
