Fiction. Limited Edition. Numbered limited edition of seventy-five signed by the author, with prints by Pamela Lawton. "A deeply engrossing book, I couldn't put it down. And now that I've finished reading it, I can't put it away, for how it furthers my thinking of the genre itself. A PLACE IN THE SUN beautifully combines the high action and salaciousness of page-turners, with the self-reflection and risk-taking of postmodern fiction. It's a must-read and a must-study"--Renee Gladman. Author Hometown...

George Stevens won an Oscar for his 1951 adaptation of Theodore Dreiser's novel An American Tragedy , though the film seems a little overwrought today and even self-parodying at times. Still, Montgomery Clift's performance as a poor lad so drawn to a rich, beautiful girl (Elizabeth Taylor) that he contemplates killing his lower-class fiancée (Shelley Winters) is powerful, sympathetic, and mesmerizing. Taylor makes a strong impression, but Winters is awfully good in the less-glamorous role. The tone...

The perfect record for '70s concert goers, A Place in the Sun is a record of commercial pop. Most of the tracks on the album touch base with all of the '70s smooth rock clichés: a smooth jazz track ("A Place in the Sun"); country fluff ("Raging Fire"); and a funky, instrumental jam track ("El Verano"). Provides a quick glimpse into '70s pop culture. ~ Zachary Curd, Rovi All Music Guide

Palm oil is the quintessence of West Africa - it is complex, an acquired taste and reckoned to be rather unhealthy. Small chop is the addition of ingredients that make it palatable for European taste. From the unique perspective of working aboard merchant ships trading to the area, the author provides a viewpoint of the first 25 years of West African independence - it is simultaneously the story of the final years of many of the British Merchant Navy's liner trades where fortunes largely depended...

A Place in the Sun marks another departure for Friends of Dean Martinez, who travel further away from their somewhat kitschy-sounding early work with each following effort. On their second album for Knitting Factory, the band aims for -- and achieves -- the filmic expansiveness of Rachel's, the Dirty Three, and Godspeed You Black Emperor while retaining their essentially Southwestern sound.
