The tangled relationships of Robert Flynn's award- winning novel "Wanderer Springs" surface again in "Tie- Fast Country," this time centered around an elderly ranch woman, whose father raised her to be a cowboy, and her grandson, who doesn't know her and has been raised to hate her.

Living with the Hyenas
ISBN: 9780875651446 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Hyenas are scavengers and predators. They prey on the weak and the helpless and even their fellow predators, the lions. Like lions, the people in Robert Flynn's stories learn to make accommodations to the hyenas and to a society that tolerates them. Sometimes accommodation is painful, as in "A Boy and His Dog," the story of a Marine and his dog trained to sniff out mines and booby-traps in the Vietnam War.
Sometimes the process of accommodation is comic, bringing out Flynn's characteristic wit, as in "At Play in the Sewers of the Lord," which juxtaposes theology and sewage treatment. But...

Echoes of Glory
ISBN: 9780875653891 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Robert Flynn's new novel, Echoes of Glory centers on a fictitious Texas county that embraces its legends, but not its actual history. Set in the Reagan era, the novel exposes shared myths as lies and the truth, lacking all comfort. In his inimitable style Flynn paints a portrait of the denizens of the county who tacitly embrace the legend as all too human and all too frail. Overshadowed by the accomplishments of adjacent Doss County, Mills County clings to its legends--the legendary Mills brothers. One brother had died at the Alamo, one at Goliad, three had fought at San Jacinto. The three...

Robert Flynn's second novel tracks a day in the life of Pat Shahan, minister of a Protestant church in a large city. Young, devout, and honest, Shahan seeks revelation--and is offered a revolving neon cross for the church steeple; he seeks vision--and gets a pep talk from the church treasurer. Striving to serve the Lord, he is dragged into a "Great Crusade" which is nothing more than a publicity stunt that ends disastrously. Shahan's day sees him ministering to the sick and dying, pacifying angry parishioners and counseling troubled ones, seeking inspiration for a sermon, trying to calm his...

Paul Baker and the Integration of Abilities
ISBN: 9780875652719 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Irritating, arrogant, nuts--and a genius." That's what Charles Laughton said of Paul Baker. He also said, "Paul Baker is one of the most important minds in the world theater today. He seems to have invented new ways of doing things, and I think something big will come out of it."
Something big did come out of it. Stage productions such as "Othello," "Hamlet," and "A Cloud of Witnesses" brought critics including Henry Hewes of "Saturday Review" and photographers such as Eliot Eliosofon of "Life" magazine to Baylor Theater in Waco. Baker's production of Eugene McKinney's "A Different... "Irritating, arrogant, nuts--and a genius." That's what Charles Laughton said of Paul Baker.

Eric White
ISBN: 9780847846207 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first comprehensive and long-overdue monograph of visual artist Eric White, containing mostly previously unpublished work. Eric White generates a world of psychologically charged narratives in his masterfully executed and surreal figurative paintings. His work is inspired by cinema--especially the golden age of Hollywood--and an obscure pop culture seen through the lens of a satirical and fantastical schizophrenic dream logic. This book covers the breadth of his career so far, from his earliest acrylics, oils, and works on paper, to his subverted album cover paintings, work he describes...
