  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Two Sisters by Gore Vidal Two Sisters (Novel) Two Sisters Is a Novelistic Memoir by the American Writer Gore Vidal
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Two Sisters by Gore Vidal Two Sisters (novel) Two Sisters is a novelistic memoir by the American writer Gore Vidal. Originally published in 1970 this fairly short novel (174 pages) contains, according to the blurb on the dust jacket of the first edition, "Gore Vidal’s singular speculations on love, sex, death, literature and politics." A memoir is a collection of memories that an individual writes about moments or events, both public or private, that took place in the subject's life. The assertions made in the work are understood to be factual. While memoir has historically been defined as a subcategory of biography or autobiography since the late 20th century, the genre is differentiated in form, presenting a narrowed focus. A biography or autobiography tells the story "of a life", while a memoir often tells a story "from a life", such as touchstone events and turning points from the author's life. The author of a memoir may be referred to as a memoirist or a memorialist . Eugene Luther Gore Vidal was an American writer and public intellectual known for his patrician manner, epigrammatic wit, and polished style of writing. Reviewing the book in the New York Times , reviewer John Leonard complained, ""Two Sisters" works neither as a novel (all the news happens off-stage) nor as a memoir (the "I" is far too coy)." [1] John Leonard was an American literary, television, film, and cultural critic. Related Research Articles. Burr (1973), by Gore Vidal, is a historical novel that challenges the traditional founding-fathers iconography of United States history, by means of a narrative that includes a fictional memoir, by Aaron Burr, in representing the people, politics, and events of the U.S.

  • Igby Goes Down (2002) Un Adolescente in Cerca Del Senso Dell'esistere
    Igby Goes Down (2002) Un adolescente in cerca del senso dell'esistere. Un film di Burr Steers con Kieran Culkin, Claire Danes, Jeff Goldblum, Jared Harris, Amanda Peet, Ryan Phillippe, Bill Pullman, Susan Sarandon. Genere Commedia durata 97 minuti. Produzione USA 2002. Igby, uno strano ragazzo diciassettenne, vive con la madre malata di cancro e il padre schizofrenico... Giancarlo Zappoli - www.mymovies.it Igby si fa cacciare da tutti i licei e sua madre decide di iscriverlo all'Accademia militare ma anche questo non serve a metterlo in riga. Perché Igby ha un padre ormai ricoverato da tempo in una casa di cura per disturbi psichici, un fratello che riesce in tutto e un padrino, D.H., che lo tratta con generosa supponenza. L'amore per una ragazza più grande sembra aprirgli delle prospettive più rosee ma la precarietà (anche sentimentale) sembra difficile da debellare. Kieran Culkin riesce con classe a sfuggire al cono d'ombra proiettato dall'ingombrante fratello Macaulay grazie a una sceneggiatura efficace e a un cast di comprimari di alto livello. A partire da Susan Sarandon che disegna il personaggio di una donna impegnata a svuotare di senso la vita del marito e del figlio. Il film si apre con la scena in cui i due fratelli uccidono la madre per soffocamento. Si tratta di un delitto dettato da rancore filiale o di eutanasia? Lo sapremo solo alla fine. Prima avremo seguito l'annaspante vita di Igby (neppure il nome è suo) costretto a cercare di sopravvivere a un mondo di adulti troppo ripiegati su se stessi per donargli veramente qualcosa.
