This book explores fictional responses to the changing transport and urban infrastructure of nineteenth-century France, arguing that networks of movement (and an accompanying ‘culture of networks’) which had become firmly established by the time of the Second Empire constitute a privileged subject for representation, and that naturalist fiction in particular is that representation’s privileged form. Contextualizing the study’s critical focus by way of a brief historical outline of the development of infrastructural networks in nineteenth-century France and a delineation of the problematical parameters of French naturalism, Duffy examines literary representations of new forms and conceptualisations of movement, principally in works by Flaubert, Zola, and Maupassant. Other authors discussed include the Goncourt brothers, Huysmans, Baudelaire and Claretie. Literary texts are examined alongside a range of related scientific, sociological and medical texts. What emerges strikingly from consideration of these works and the discourses they – often subversively – incorporate, is that movement, central to nineteenth-century industrial society’s view of itself, is frequently perceived and presented self-deludingly in the idealised metaphorical terms of smoothly-functioning systems of perpetual motion, and that naturalist fiction, by exploiting to their full potential the same metaphors in its narratives, challenges this ‘anti-entropic’ vision.

Larry L. Kings life story.

Larry Morrow is one of Cleveland's most popular celebrities. In this book he tells stories from a lifetime in radio--how he got into broadcasting, early days in Detroit, the exciting times at Cleveland's AM powerhouse WIXY 1260 in the 1960s and '70s, and his long on-air runs at WERE AM and WQAL FM. He tells about many interesting celebrities he interviewed and unusual promotions he was involved in. Morrow was named "Mr. Cleveland" by mayor George Voinovich for his decades of tireless effort promoting his adopted city, and he has been selected as master of ceremonies for most major Cleveland events in the past three decades, including Cleveland's bicentennial celebration. He is in great demand as a public speaker and a communications teacher.

A posthumous collection of essays, reviews, and interviews by Larry Levis

As it was originally written, DALLAS was really about Patrick Duffy and Victoria Principal. She was from the wrong side of the tracks and we were the rich family and they were getting married, they loved each other, blah, blah, blah. It was focused on them. I was just the brother...' Written with US WEEKLY Bureau Chief, Todd Gold, HELLO DARLIN' is a forthright look at Hagman's star-studded career. From his early days opposite Barbara Eden on I DREAM OF JEANNIE, to the show that turned him into an international celebrity and led him to become the biggest screen villain of the eighties as power-mad oil baron JR Ewing on Dallas. Hagman tells all about the trials and turmoil and the intrigue and dangers of filming DALLAS, and also the madness that ensued when it became one of the most popular television shows in history. His Stetson now resides in the Smithsonian and over 400 million fans in eighty-five countries had to find out just who shot JR. Even the parliament in Turkey adjourned so representatives could rush to their TV sets. To put it in JR's own words, 'Once you got rid of the integrity, the rest was a piece of cake'.
