Book Description
Available for the first time in over thirty years, John Krizanc’s internationally acclaimed play redefined the limits of theatre with its haunting tale of art, sex, violence, and political intrigue in Fascist Italy. In the late twenties the poet, war hero, and lothario Gabriele d’Annunzio waits in his opulent villa — a gift from Benito Mussolini in return for his political silence — for the arrival of the artist Tamara de Lempicka, who is to paint his portrait. What follows is a tale of art, sex, violence and the meaning of complicity in an authoritarian state. The action is directed by the reader/audience member, who decides which characters to follow and which narratives to experience. John Krizanc’s masterpiece redefined theatre and won six L.A. Drama Critics Circle Awards, six Dora Mavor Moore Awards, six Drama-Logue Awards, and six Mexican Association of Theatre Critics, and Journalists Awards for its original productions. Now available in a handsome new A List edition, Tamara is an astonishing piece of experimental art and a penetrating look into ethical choices in times of encroaching autocracy.

But it truly adds insult to injury when the Granvilles’ archenemy, the outlaw Rufus Decatur, hatches a scheme to abduct the marquis’s daughter—only to kidnap Portia by accident.

Starting from the mid 1960s this unique play documents the highs and lows of some of Britain's first black immigrants. Some will agree it is an accurate representation of the lives of certain members of the black community. What will you think? About the AuthorRosealine Allen was born in May 1967 in London. She is a black woman born to West Indian immigrant parents. She spent her early years moving between grim council estates in East London. At Polytechnic she studied psychology and she is now training to be a teacher on the Graduate Teacher Programme. Rosealine currently lives in Basildon, Essex. Whether Rosie's troubled youth was typical of a Black British girl growing up in the seventies, she cannot say, but she does believe the problems that existed between her parents and her were common for West Indians families at that time.

Book Description
CHATTAHOOCHEE The Civil War, in all its gore and glory, comes alive in the eyes and hearts of Cathy Wingate, a young and beautiful Mississippi widow, and her little girl, Tamara. Born in 1861, in the first year of the war after her father had already gone off and died for the Confederacy, Tamara has a clairvoyant dream about a young Union officer in 1864, during the last year of the war. Cathy didn't believe in clairvoyance but she understood, after all they had gone through, her little girl's precocious mind had conceived the perfect father, a father that she instinctively and passionately craved, and a father that might shelter them from the clutches and the aftermath of the interminable war. Based on a true Civil War Story that reached fruition along the banks of the Chattahoochee River, Tamara's dream comes true, to the astonishment of her mother Cathy. The Union Soldier that Tamara dreamed of before she had ever seen him or had any reason to know existed turned out to be Lt. Travis Scott Cash of the 39th Indiana Volunteers. Of all your Civil War memories, the gripping saga of Cathy Wingate, Tamara Wingate and Lt. Travis Scott Cash might well linger the longest in your mind and...in your dreams.
