How many times have you gone through something and said “I could write a book about this!”? Now is the time to stop doubting and start planning! Just as every great meal starts with a recipe, every epic novel starts with an epic outline. But is an outline really necessary? Can’t you just wing it? Isn’t all that time on an outline better spent on actually writing? And doesn’t an outline just pour water on that spark of creativity? That’s what you may have heard…until now! Writing is like The Hare and the Tortoise. Slow and steady will always beat quick and careless.

Noir emerged as a prominent American film genre in the early 1940s, distinguishable by its use of unusual lighting, sinister plots, mysterious characters, and dark themes. From The Maltese Falcon (1941) to Touch of Evil (1958), films from this classic period reflect an atmosphere of corruption and social decay that attracted such accomplished directors as John Huston, Alfred Hitchcock, Billy Wilder, and Orson Welles.

Alice Procter provides a guide for deconstructing everything you thought you knew about art history and tells the stories that have been left out of the canon. A much-needed provocation to look more critically at the accepted narratives about art and rethink and disrupt the way we interact with the museums and galleries that display it.

On the Warrior’s Path connects the martial arts with this larger perspective, merging subtle philosophies with no-holds-barred competition, Nietzsche with Bruce Lee, radical Taoism and Buddhism with the Star Wars Trilogy, traditional martial arts with basketball and American Indian culture. At the center of all these phenomena is the warrior. Though this archetype seems to manifest contradictory values, author Daniele Bolelli describes the heart of this tension: how the training of martial technique leads to a renunciation of violence, and how overcoming fear leads to a unique freedom.

Jay-Z: Made in America is the fruit of Michael Eric Dyson’s decade of teaching the work of one of the greatest poets this nation has produced, as gifted a wordsmith as Walt Whitman, Robert Frost and Rita Dove. But as a rapper, he’s sometimes not given the credit he deserves for just how great an artist he’s been for so long.

To judge by the worldwide success of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christie's Poirot, it is not only the Anglo-Saxons who have an appetite for mystery and mayhem. Talking about the craft of detective writing and sharing her personal thoughts and observations on one of the most popular and enduring forms of literature, P. D. James examines the challenges, achievements and potential of a genre which has fascinated her as a novelist for nearly 50 years.

Story4 out of 5 stars 146
Compiled by a veteran writer of the comic series, this collection of essays explores Batman’s motivations and actions, as well as those of his foes. Batman is a creature of the night, more about vengeance than justice, more plagued by doubts than full of self-assurance, and more darkness than light. He has no superpowers, just skill, drive, and a really well-made suit.

On the Warrior’s Path connects the martial arts with this larger perspective, merging subtle philosophies with no-holds-barred competition, Nietzsche with Bruce Lee, radical Taoism and Buddhism with the Star Wars Trilogy, traditional martial arts with basketball and American Indian culture. At the center of all these phenomena is the warrior. Though this archetype seems to manifest contradictory values, author Daniele Bolelli describes the heart of this tension: how the training of martial technique leads to a renunciation of violence, and how overcoming fear leads to a unique freedom.

WTF John Wick saga did you morons watch???
What John Wick saga did you watch? There are critical errors in timeline, character relationships, just about anything meaningful. A recording based on the knowledge of someone who may/may not have even seen the movie. 45 minutes I won’t ever get back and is worthy of seeking revenge which is something this fiasco seems incapable of understanding. You all deserve a visit from the Baba Yaga for putting out this pile of dog shit!

Dick whatever this is!SAVEyour money/credits!!!!
this book angers the ever lovin SHIT out of me! it's so despicably incorrect in its related film references!! not just to the specific film it claims to be referencing for the sake of explanation but to said named-film's context, characters, storyline/ timeline, etc... anyone and everyone involved in the creation of these amazing movies, or those movies' originating storyline should feel embarrassed and disgusted with this so- called unveiling of answers to the stories behind these movies that so many of us committed, loving, and patronizing fans actually give a shit about! particularly after all of the work y'all put into creating them!!!! membership credits ain't exactly cheap and therefore easy to come by!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

That it might be interesting but it was a massive
The facts should of been checked they kept getting the plot of the first and second film completely confused. They tried to give some explanation for certain thing that just don't make any sense what's so ever. If your fan of the film franchise skip this.

Horrible
I have no idea how this got published or made it to audible. Like a middle school book report complete with cut and paste. Nothing new here and some blatant errors in storyline reference. Laughable that I paid $3 for this. Don’t give them any more money.
