Un mundo para Sharon

Un mundo para Sharon

Autor: Marzia Bosoni

Número de Páginas: 150

Sharon tiene trece años, y su vida está hecha de música, peleas con los padres y sueños de libertad. Sin embargo, la repentina pérdida de la madre abre ante ella un abismo de rabia en el que ni el silencio torturado del padre ni la dura comprensión de la señora Teresa pueden ayudarla. Y en ese abismo, Sharon también se arriesga a perder a su hermanito Davide, que se aferra desesperadamente al mundo fantástico que inventó su madre. Quizás el abrazo extraño de ese mundo y de los personajes excéntricos que lo habitan puedan ayudar a los dos hermanos a reencontrarse en la oscuridad del dolor, pero para hacerlo, Sharon deberá enfrentarse a todos sus demonios. Y tendrá que llevar a Davide de vuelta a casa.

At the turn of the 20th century, Sharons very existence was threatened by the collapse of the local iron industry as the towns economy and population began to decline. However, the popularity of automobile transportation and Sharons accessible distance from New York attracted a class of wealthy visitors who fell in love with the rolling hills and quiet valleys. This new weekend population purchased land and built stately country homes, reigniting interest in the area. Steady growth in construction provided much-needed work, and commerce began to thrive again. Early businesses expanded, and new operations opened. Local residents could shop at stores run by the Gillette brothers and A.R. Woodward, fill their tanks at Herman Middlebrooks gas station, and have their health care needs attended to by doctors at the state-of-the-art Sharon Hospital, built in 1916. Eastern Europeans became the towns newest residents, taking advantage of the affordable, cleared land to fuel a large number of highly successful farms. Sharons residents thrived as they reshaped their town, welcoming newcomers and nurturing a community of inclusion that lasts to the present day.

Sharon Tate

Sharon Tate

Autor: Ed Sanders

Número de Páginas: 330

Ed Sanders gave readers their clearest insight yet into the disturbing world of Charles Manson and his followers when he published The Family in 1971. Continuing that journalistic tradition, Sanders presents the most thorough look ever into the heartbreaking story of Sharon Tate, the iconic actress who found love, fame, and ultimately tragedy during her all-too-brief life. Sharon Tate: A Life traces Sharon's path from beauty queen to budding young actress: her early love affairs, her romance with and marriage to director Roman Polanski, and the excitement of the glamorous life she had always sought -- all set against the background of the turbulent 1960s. This sympathetic account tells the powerful story of her determined rise through the ranks of Hollywood and to the brink of stardom before her name became forever linked with the shocking murder spree that took her life. In 1969, the Polanski house was targeted by the followers of cultist Charles Manson. Why the Manson clan focused its gaze on Sharon remains unclear, but the world was soon shocked to its core as it learned of the brutal murders of a pregnant Sharon Tate and her friends at her idyllic home in Los Angeles.

In 1954 reporter Uri Dan met a young military commander named Ariel Sharon and followed him closely for more than half a century.

Sharon and Sharon Springs

Autor: Sharon Historical Society With Nancy Dipace Pfau

Número de Páginas: 128

Located in the northwest corner of Schoharie County, Sharon was established in 1797 after Palatine German and Dutch families had settled in the area, replacing the Iroquois in the 18th century. Set in rolling hills with magnificent vistas over the Mohawk Valley, the area's mineral springs drew native people and Europeans to bathe in the health-promoting waters. The spa era of grand hotels and wealthy guests gave way to a slow but steady decline around 1900; however, from the early 1990s, the town has enjoyed a renaissance with the arrival of creative artists and entrepreneurs, including The Fabulous Beekman Boys, whose reality television series showcased Sharon, linking past to present. The couple lives in the mansion of prominent early resident William Beekman, the first judge of Schoharie County and the owner of the first mercantile.

Understanding Sharon Olds

Understanding Sharon Olds

Autor: Russell Brickey

Número de Páginas: 165

A thorough examination of the author's deeply personal and often-controversial poetry Understanding Sharon Olds explores this Pulitzer Prize-winning poet's major themes, characters, life, and career, including her often-controversial portrayals of family dysfunction, sexuality, and violence against women. In this first book dedicated entirely to the poetry of Sharon Olds, Russell Brickey examines how Olds approaches these difficult and complex topics with pathos and intimate, sometimes provocatively private, details through poetry that not all her critics appreciate. Olds has never shied away from difficult subject matter. Her first award-winning book, Satan Says, is a feminist exploration of gender politics and adolescent discovery. The Father comprises a book-length elegy about cancer. Stag's Leap, Olds's Pulitzer Prize-winning volume, is a surprisingly tender look at divorce in modern American culture. Extremely personal, her poems often deal with the victories and contradictions of being a woman in the United States during a time when the country is often involved in racial upheavals and military conflicts overseas. She investigates the victories and contradictions of being a...

Sharon Tate and the Manson Murders

Sharon Tate and the Manson Murders

Autor: Greg King

Número de Páginas: 361

The first comprehensive biography of Sharon Tate: Hollywood star, wife of Roman Polanski, victim of Charles Manson, and symbol of the death of the 1960s. It began as a home invasion by the “Manson family” in the early hours of August 9, 1969. It ended in a killing spree that left seven people dead: actress Sharon Tate, writer Voyteck Frykowski, coffee heiress Abigail Folger, hair stylist Jay Sebring, student Steven Parent, and supermarket owner Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary. The shock waves of these crimes still reverberate today. They have also, over time, eclipsed the life of their most famous victim—a Dallas, Texas, beauty queen with Hollywood aspirations. After more than a dozen small film and television roles, Tate gained international fame with the screen adaptation of Jacqueline Susann’s Valley of the Dolls, but The Fearless Vampire Killers marked a personal turning point, as she would marry its star and director, Roman Polanski. Tate now had a new dream: to raise a family—and she was only weeks away from giving birth the night Charles Manson’s followers murdered her. Drawn from a wealth of rare material including detective reports, parole transcripts,...

Sweet Song of Sharon

Sweet Song of Sharon

Autor: Charles Alan Long

Número de Páginas: 163

SWEET SONG OF SHARON WAS OF HER GLORY BUT MUCH MORE Sharon and Charles were born, educated, and in love in fundamentalist Kansas, both attending a conservative protestant church. Tragedy and poverty forced her marriage to another. It eventually failed. The supernatural event seemed to bring the long separated pair back to an impossible love. Odds against were their ages and health, finding each other after 65 years of separate adult lives, and so many years of unrequited love. Reunited, the love ecstasy was so incredible for two people bonded hopelessly for many years, that too was a miracle. It defied age, poor health, her family, a suicidal dying woman, a thousand miles distance between our homes. There is much more arising from this miracle. The poet and Sharon considered it love from heaven. After sharing bliss and happiness, the poet wrote a poem of Sharon’s momentous, magnificent song of love. After becoming a naturalist with math background and great giants teaching sciences, some observed “miracles” could not be explained. Since college he was also a transcendentalist, and the suddenly revealed supernatural events from Quantum Physics made God and Jesus make sense....

Justice Stephen Field

Justice Stephen Field

Autor: Paul Kens

Número de Páginas: 392

Outspoken and controversial, Stephen Field served on the Supreme Court from his appointment by Lincoln in 1863 through the closing years of the century. No justice had ever served longer on the Court, and few were as determined to use the Court to lead the nation into a new and exciting era. Paul Kens shows how Field ascended to such prominence, what influenced his legal thought and court opinions, and why both are still very relevant today. One of the famous gold rush forty-niners, Field was a founder of Marysville, California, a state legislator, and state supreme court justice. His decisions from the state bench and later from the federal circuit court often placed him in the middle of tense conflicts over the distribution of the land and mineral wealth of the new state. Kens illuminates how Field's experiences in early California influenced his jurisprudence and produced a theory of liberty that reflected both the ideals of his Jacksonian youth and the teachings of laissez-faire economics. During the time that Field served on the U.S. Supreme Court, the nation went through the Civil War and Reconstruction and moved from an agrarian to an industrial economy in which big...
