 |  | Fuck the World
Publication Date: April 8, 2009Juvenile, profane, and timeless, Bodhi Oser's first collection of photographs, Fuck this Book (more than 60,000 copies sold), featured images of real public signs that had been mischievously altered by stickers bearing the most expressive of all four-letter words. For this all-new collection, Oser embarked on a globe-trotting odyssey, spending countless hours on the hunt for the almost-perfect sign, in need of just the slightest improvement. Addictively hilarious, the results show a world persuasively transformed. Is it any wonder tourists flock to Fuckingham P...

|  | The Collected Supernatural and Weird Fiction of Guy de Maupassant: Volume 3-Including One Novella 'The Heritage' and Thirty-Six Short Stories of the Strange and Unusual
Publication Date: November 23, 2010The final volume of this special Leonaur collectionIf the genre of supernatural fiction were a windowless corridor there would be those authors who stood at the light of the door only to peep playfully within and those who ventured farther along it to where the light was dimmer and the fear more palpable. Inevitably, in this analogy, there would be those who occupied a place far from the light where the darkness was almost complete. There, perhaps, one would find the work of Guy de Maupassant. It is a place uncomfortable to occupy and, for some, to visit. I...

|  | Rehearsal from Shakespeare to Sheridan
Publication Date: February 20, 2008| ISBN-10: 0199229724 | ISBN-13: 978-0199229727Attention is often given to the performance of a text, but not to the shaping process behind that performance. The question of rehearsal is seldom confronted directly, though important textual moments - like revision - are often attributed to it. Furthermore, up until now, facts about theatrical rehearsal have been considered irrecoverable. In this groundbreaking new study, Tiffany Stern gathers together two centuries' worth of historical material which shows how actors received and responded to their parts...

Publication Date: July 5, 2012Quelle blague, quelle lugubre blagiie que la vie. AUGUST STRINDBERG. THE shadow of the exceeding sorrow of living which, in these latter days, hovers over the world-wide realm of letters has settled in deep darkness upon the literature of the far North.

All that is most terrible, most tragic, most pessimistic in that spirit and place is incarnate in August Strindberg, the Swedish dramatist ...
