The Teller Of Small Fortunes [Bok / Pocket]

<b>From one of the most iconic actors in the history of film, an astonishingly revelatory account of a creative life in full</b><br/><br/>To the wider world, Al Pacino exploded onto the scene like a supernova. He landed his first leading role, in <i>The Panic in Needle Park</i>, in 1971, and by 1975, he had starred in four movies-<i>The Godfather</i> and <i>The Godfather Part II</i>, <i>Serpico</i>, and <i>Dog Day Afternoon</i>-that were not just successes but landmarks in the history of film. Those performances became legendary and changed his life forever. Not since Marlon Brando and James Dean in the late 1950s had an actor landed in the culture with such force.<br/><br/>But Pacino was in his mid thirties by then, and had already lived several lives. A fixture of avant-garde theater in New York, he had led a bohemian existence, working odd jobs to support his craft. He was raised by a fiercely loving but mentally unwell mother and her parents after his father left them when he was young, but in a real sense he was raised by the streets of the South Bronx, and by the troop of buccaneering young friends he ran with, whose spirits never left him. After a teacher recognized his acting promise and pushed him toward New York's fabled High School of Performing Arts, the die was cast. In good times and bad, in poverty and in wealth and in poverty again, through pain and joy, acting was his lifeline, its community his tribe.<br/><br/><i>Sonny Boy</i> is the memoir of a man who has nothing left to fear and nothing left to hide. All the great roles, the essential collaborations, and the important relationships are given their full due, as is the vexed marriage between creativity and commerce at the highest levels. The book's golden thread, however, is the spirit of love and purpose. Love can fail you, and you can be defeated in your ambitions-the same lights that shine bright can also dim. But Al Pacino was lucky enough to fall deeply in love with a craft before he had the foggiest idea of any of its earthly rewards, and he never fell out of love. That has made all the difference.<br/><br/>_________________________________________________________________________<br/><br/><b>Praise for Al Pacino:</b><br/><br/>'Al Pacino is magical' <b>Martin Scorsese</b><br/><br/>'A legend' <b>Francis Ford Coppola</b><br/><br/>'So unique and special' <b>Robert De Niro</b><br/><br/>'A singular, special talent, whose work stands the test of time' <b>Robin Williams</b><br/><br/>'A wicked sense of humour' <b>Oliver Stone</b><br/><br/>'Charming, hilarious, a nonstop talker. There is an aspect of him that is like a lost orphan, like this kind of crazy idiot savant' <b>Diane Keaton</b><br/><br/>'As Michael in The Godfather, Pacino was everything I wanted that character to be on screen. I couldn't believe it. It was, in my eyes, a perfect performance, a work of art' <b>Mario Puzo, author of <i>The Godfather </i></b><br/><br/>'Comedic, talented, and certifiably insane' <b>Johnny Depp</b><br/><br/>'Al is money, the man in charge, making it happen. I got to act with Al Pacino and it was worth more to me than anything' <b>Samuel L Jackson</b><br/><br/>'A marvellous actor and man' <b>Sean Connery</b><br/><br/>'The depth of Al Pacino's artistry is only more overwhelmed by the generosity of his spirit and his warmth. Al Pacino is Van Gogh. Modigliani' <b>Andy Garcia</b><br/><br/>'The greatest actor in the world' <b>Jamie Foxx</b>

The Wheel Of Time Companion [Bok / Pocket]

<b>FROM THE AUTHOR OF <i>UNMASKING AUTISM</i></b><br/><b><i><br/>'This book articulates a feeling that has lurked in the dark corners of so many minds and brings it into the light where it can be faced, embraced, understood, and ultimately, healed. .' -Celeste Headlee, journalist and bestselling author<br/></i></b><br/><b>How many times a day do you feel shame? Struggling to pay the bills; buying a top made in a sweatshop; reading the news and feeling - yet again - a powerlessness to the point of apathy?</b><br/><br/>In today's self-blame culture, it often feels impossible not to carry shame about the choices we make and the values by which we live. When the political is so personal, and the personal is so political, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the sense that we're not doing enough - maybe, even, that <i>we're </i>not enough.<br/><br/>In this bold and transformative manifesto, social psychologist and author of <i>Unmasking Autism </i>Dr Devon Price takes an in-depth look at shame and the role it plays in our lives. Systemic Shame traps us into fighting unwinnable battles and judging others for their failures. But it especially affects those who are already vulnerable because they're carrying shame from a difficult past or a complicated sense of self-esteem. This new, radically positive book shows us that there is no such thing as becoming "good enough" to be deserving of love; that we must claim acceptance for ourselves.<br/><br/>Blending the latest social psychology, personal insights and empowering practical exercises, <i>Unlearning Shame </i>is a radical guide to overcoming self-blame and embracing a new culture - one where we take control of the choices we make and the future we create.
