Traditional rangoli designs are often created on the ground in front of the entrances to homes, using finely ground powders in vivid colors. This ancient art form is believed to have originated from the Indian state of Maharashtra, and it is known by different names, such as kolam or aripana, in other states. Rangoli de- signs are considered to be symbols of good luck and welcome, and are created, usually by women, for special occasions such as festivals (espe- cially Diwali), marriages, and birth ceremonies.

The literary nonfi ction approach (what I call ‘intimate history’) juxtaposes these insider and outsider explanations, weaving together journalistic, historical, and ethnographic methods with literary techniques, without resorting to fi ctionalization. I lay out three writerly ‘tools’—research, vulnerability, and speculation—that, I argue, allow for a more complex model of diaspora to emerge. I describe how these tools, developed and used in the process of writing my forthcoming nonfi ction book, provide insight into the emotional and historical complexities around each diasporan’s ‘moment of migration’. Key Words Fiji Gujarati literary device/technique/craft migration nonfi ction South Asian writing Auto- In speaking of ‘intimate history’, it is only fair to begin by being intimate.

  • Will Sie Spielen?
    fairpress.de - p r e s s e i n f o r m a t i o n WILL SIE SPIELEN? Am 10. Mai 2013 veröffentlicht Koch Media das hochkarätig besetzte Regiedebüt des amerikanischen Bestsellerautors Stephen Elliott „Cherry“ – eine Story in San Franciscos Erotikindustrie – auf DVD und Blu-ray! Berlin, 27. März 2013 – Knisternde Erotik und der ehrlichste Einblick in die Erotikbranche seit Paul Thomas Andersons „Boogie Nights“: Mit „Cherry“, dessen Weltpremiere auf der Berlinale 2012 gefeiert wurde, wagt sich Regiedebütant Stephen Elliott in kontroverse Gewässer. Sein Mut, die Geschichte einer jungen Erotikdarstellerin zu erzählen, wurde mit herausragenden Darstellerleistungen der hochkarätigen Besetzung belohnt. Neben James Franco („Spider Man“, „127 Hours“), Heather Graham („Boogie Nights“, „Hangover“) und Dev Patel („Slumdog Millionär“) glänzt Newcomerin Ashley Hinshaw („Chronicle – Wozu bist Du fähig?“) in der Rolle der titelgebenden „Cherry“. „Cherry“ erzählt die Geschichte der jungen Angelina, die genug hat vom Leben mit ihrer stets betrunkenen Mutter und deren aufdringlichem Freund und sich nach ersten Nacktaufnahmen nach San Francisco absetzt. Hier findet sie zunächst im Stripclub und dann als Erotikdarstellerin Anerkennung und sogar Liebe. Aber auch in dieser boomenden Industrie hat Erfolg seinen Preis … Der Film schwingt weder die moralische Keule, noch feiert er die Branche. Steven Elliott ist mit einer Mischung aus tragikomischen Liebesgeschichte und Sexbizsatire eine einzigartige Gratwanderung gelungen, die in Filmen über dieses Gewerbe einzigartig ist. Dabei stellt er die Frage, ob eine Karriere in der Sexindustrie jemals ein Happy End haben kann. Das Drehbuch schrieb Stephen Elliott in Zusammenarbeit mit Erotikstar Lorelei Lee.

  • About Cherry (2012) Una Favola Rosa a Lieto Fine Che Procede Dritta E Baldanzosa Verso Un Pugno Di Mosche
    About Cherry (2012) Una favola rosa a lieto fine che procede dritta e baldanzosa verso un pugno di mosche. Un film di Stephen Elliott (II) con James Franco, Heather Graham, Ashley Hinshaw, Dev Patel, Lili Taylor, Diane Farr, Jonny Weston, Megan Boone, Sensi Pearl, Steven Wiig. Genere Commedia durata 97 minuti. Produzione USA 2012. Una giovane ragazza entra nel mondo della pornografia e scopre un mondo abitato da eccentriche personalità. Tra tutti viene attratta da un avvocato cocainomane. Marianna Cappi - www.mymovies.it La diciottenne Angelina lavora in una lavanderia e si occupa della madre alcolizzata e vessata da un compagno brutale, in attesa di una vita migliore. L'occasione arriva con il guadagno per alcune foto in cui posa nuda, per una volta soltanto. Con quei soldi e la compagnia del suo migliore amico, Angelina si trasferisce a San Francisco dove ad un certo punto entra nell'industria del cinema porno, con il soprannome di Cherry. La sua innocenza, combinata con un invidiabile sicurezza, la fa apprezzare subito nell'ambiente, ma, fuori di esso, i pregiudizi sono tanti. Stephen Elliot, classe 1971, giornalista e scrittore, pubblicato tra gli altri da Mc Sweeney's, per il suo debutto cinematografico sceglie una protagonista femminile colta nel momento in cui può prendere in mano il proprio destino e le fa fare una scelta molto particolare, depurando lo sguardo dai moralismi e approcciando il mondo del porno con la lucidità e la praticità di un mestiere come gli altri, come il commercialista o l'imprenditore (sfumatura che infatti non manca). La sicumera di Angelina in scena e dei suoi inventori dietro la macchina da presa (Elliot scrive con Lorelei Lee, attrice porno) non riescono però, purtroppo per loro, a convincerci della tesi in campo.
