Characters: 1m, 2f Interior Three reality television writers find themselves just as "desperate" as the housewives they are shooting. Danno, a stressed-out editor, harbors secret guilt for deserting his sick sister. Renee is in the midst of a divorce and at a turning point in her career. The overly ambitious Colette finds herself in a world of trouble when she guns for Renee's job and Danno's respect. Amongst the "Ladies of Malibu" show that they produce, the trio finds that it is much easier to yell "cut " on set, rather than in one's own life. "The real star is the script, bristling with vitality in a compact 90 minutes. A playwright of growing downtown renown, Ms. Skillman seems to be acquiring something suspiciously Midtown: polish." - The New York Times

Описание: Science has transformed understandings of the mind, supplying physiological explanations for what once seemed transcendental. Nikki Skillman shows how lyric poets-caught between a reductive scientific view and naive literary metaphors-struggled to articulate a vision of consciousness that was both scientifically informed and poetically truthful.
Автор: Skillman Judith Название: Came Home to Winter ISBN: 0999106279 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780999106273 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 19490.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Poetry. Skillman's new collection explores themes of exile, nostalgia, and chronic illness. Artists, literary, and mythic figures who travel through these poems include Andy Warhol, G nter Grass, Iphigenia, and the Shakespearean characters Prospero and Miranda. Sub-themes include the fear of water and the father-daughter relationship. Water is a tool the subconscious uses for feelings; here, the chance that trauma will surface remains omnipresent. Totem animals offer analogies from nature that suffering in the organic world may transmogrify into beauty. This book was funded in part by Artist Trust of Washington State. ...There is something about these pieces that is chill without being icy or bitter, wise without being cynical, and as striking as slanted autumn light glimpsed through tree branches.--The Pedestal Magazine ...Judith Skillman takes up again the tools of naturalistic observation and mythical allusion to examine difficult truths about the interior life of the self and its drives toward intimacy and seclusion, eroticism and entropy, as well as the paradox and complexity inherent in familial relationships.--Janelle Elyse Kihlstrom, The Iowa Review As Skillman's poems seek to understand rather than deny suffering, they rarely conclude in clear resolution; rather, they acknowledge that wounds live unhealed and questions exist unanswered...(the) poems traverse through changes that manifest from living a full life. Her metaphors suggest not shrinking from scars that result from these changes, but instead learning to embrace and accept the wound as an illuminating source.--Marcene Gandolfo I believe it was Rimbaud who said that genius is the ability to recall one's entire childhood. Whether or not Judith Skillman can recall her entire childhood I cannot say, but what she does recall--and it's a great deal--she turns into poems of compelling and aching urgency.--J.R. Solonche

Описание: With pissed-off Pikachus, steam punk armies, stood-up Sailor Moons and roller-blading monsters on the prowl, it's easy to get lost in the Inferno-esque anime convention where the fans, the otakus, and the geeks prowl. But to score a rare meeting with their comic book idol, teenage outcasts Dayna and Honey will take on obsessive magic players, Jedis and elfs, cosplayers and convention guards - through all nine flights of Ohio's Dante's Fire-Con.

The Truth about Our American Births explores experiences of exile and displacement common to third-generation German Jews. As a child, author Judith Skillman was shielded from the past her parents shared with their fellow immigrants to Canada. The Holocaust was rarely mentioned. While these poems explore themes of exile, emigration, nostalgia, and loss, they also examine the role of nature as an organic force for healing.
