Описание: This is the story of the actress who became a Hollywood legend by winning the coveted role of Scarlett O'Hara in Gone with the Wind, and whose circle included both theatrical and political celebrities, from Winston Churchill to Noel Coward, John Gielgud, and Marlon Brando. But behind the dazzling exterior lay the sinister shadow of another Vivien Leigh--a shadow which pursued her throughout her aristocratic upbringing, her frustrating first marriage, her tempestuous romance with Laurence Olivier, and her meteoric rise to stardom. As The New York Times wrote of the hardcover edition, "To read her story is to be inspired with pity and terror."

Welcome back to Ho-Lee Noodle House, where you can get fantastic take-out. . .unless you get taken out first.

"Vivien Chien serves up a delicious mystery with a side order of soy sauce and sass. A tasty start to a new mystery series " --Bestselling author Kylie Logan on Death by Dumpling

Dim Sum of All Fears is the second book in a delicious new cozy series.

Lana Lee is a dutiful daughter, waiting tables at her family's Chinese restaurant even though she'd rather be doing just about anything else. Then, just when she has a chance for a "real" job, her parents take off to Taiwan, leaving Lana in charge. Surprising everyone--including herself--she turns out to be quite capable of running the place. Unfortunately, the newlyweds who just opened the souvenir store next door to Ho-Lee have turned up dead. . .and soon Lana finds herself in the midst of an Asia Village mystery.

Between running the Ho-Lee and trying to figure out whether the rock-solid Detective Adam Trudeau is actually her boyfriend, Lana knows she shouldn't pry into the case. But the more she learns about the dead husband, his ex-wives, and all the murky details of the couple's past, the more Lana thinks that this so-called murder/suicide is a straight-up order of murder. . .

Описание: This title is timed for the 100th birthday of Vivien Leigh and the 75th anniversary of her landmark film Gone With the Wind. Featuring rare photos and informed by previously untapped documents from the Laurence Olivier Archives, Vivien Leigh: An Intimate Portrait sheds new insight on the woman whose onscreen performances and dramatic life story can inspire women today. Vivien Leigh's mystique was a combination of staggering beauty, glamour, romance, and genuine talent displayed in her Oscar-winning performances in Gone With the Wind and A Streetcar Named Desire. For more than thirty years, her name alone sold out theatres and cinemas the world over, and she inspired many of the greatest visionaries of her time: Laurence Olivier loved her; Winston Churchill praised her; Christian Dior dressed her. Through both an in-depth narrative and a stunning array of photos, Vivien Leigh: An Intimate Portrait presents the personal story of one of the most celebrated women of the twentieth century, an engrossing tale of success, struggles, and triumphs. It chronicles Leigh's journey from her birth in India to prominence in British film, winning the most-coveted role in Hollywood history, her celebrated love affair with Laurence Olivier, through to her untimely death at age fifty-three in 1967. Author Kendra Bean is the first Vivien Leigh biographer to delve into the Laurence Olivier Archives, where an invaluable collection of personal letters and documents ranging from interview transcripts to film contracts to medical records shed new insight on Leigh's story. Illustrated by hundreds of rare and never-before-published images, including those by Leigh's "official" photographer, Angus McBean, Vivien Leigh: An Intimate Portrait is the first illustrated biography to closely examine the fascinating, troubled, and often misunderstood life of Vivien Leigh: the woman, the actress, the legend.

Описание:

Eyeballing Big Croc is the personal odyssey of Vivien Zielin who grew up in the East End of London. She fulfills her dream of traveling the world and discovering experiences beyond the stereotypes. As she explores both familiar and distant places, she encounters crocodiles, moonshine, prime ministers, an unexpected war and drug smuggling. A visit to Russia and an interview with the KGB vividly illustrates the delicate and easily threatened nature of freedom.

Back home in England she opens a gift shop in London's swinging Carnaby Street. Then in 2003 she takes a Torah home to Belarus, and in 2014 observes the horrifying effect a terrorist attack in Israel has on a family of young children.

As each story develops, Vivien - now living in San Francisco - finds her horizons widening and her awareness of the beauty and fragility of life heightened.
