LIKE MANY AMERICANS I spent most of my adult life as a political moderate: moderately apathetic, moderately uninvolved, and moderately dissatisfied with politicians. I began waking from my political slumber in early 2008. I began to experience free-floating anxiety about the condition of the country and the direction we were heading. America was involved in two wars, the national debt was mounting, and financial markets were volatile. More significantly, there seemed to be a lack of leadership in all of our major institutions. Making sense of the politics of 2008 seemed impossible. Political speech fails to clarify issues or create an environment for problem-solving. The terms Liberal, Moderate, Conservative, Democrat, Republican, RINO, Blue Dog, Progressive, Independent, and Libertarian don't really inform the political observer. They mean different things to different people. Obfuscation is a big word that indicates that confusion and disinformation is part of the strategy of the professional political class. When asked about her political philosophy and whether she would use the word liberal to describe herself, Hillary Clinton said, "I consider myself a Modern Progressive." At the time, I remember thinking to myself what is a "Modern Progressive." That is a good thing, right? Wrong But wait. It gets worse. On February 16, 2020, Joe Biden claimed that he would be "the most Progressive president in history."

Dennis - Min venn på Death Row. Boken handler om Tystads mangeårige korrespondanse med den dødsdømte fangen Dennis, som venter på å dø i et fengsel i USA. Tystad gir et bilde av et fengselssystem der individet drukner i byråkratiet, men mest av alt forteller han historien til Dennis, som bruker tiden sin på Death row til å leve. Mens han venter på å dø, etterutdanner han seg, leser seg opp på nye emner og filosoferer over livet. Dennis finner glede og vennskap i brevskriving, og kjemper hver dag for å hindre at dødsdommen blir gjennomført. Hans håp er at en ny guvernør i Florida fra november 2018 vil benåde ham. Jan Tystad er journalist og har tidlegere arbeidet som utenrikskorrespondent i Dagbladet. I mange år har han skildret kriger og krigenes ofre i avisartikler og bøker. Tystad var Dagbladets London-korrespondent fra 1969 til 1975 og igjen fra 1986 til 1997. Han fortsetter som pensjonist å skrive om ofrene for konflikter og kriger og er særlig opptatt av barn i krig, mennesker på flukt og om hvordan landminer og klasebomber dreper sivile og lønner våpenhandlerne.

The film career of Dennis Hopper spans half a century, beginning in the mid 1950s and ending in the new millennium upon his death. Hopper had a strange but brilliant career on the screen, starting in the golden age of James Dean and John Wayne, going through the Corman B movies of the 1960s, the turbulent but brilliant 1970s, his big comeback in the 1980s, to his days as Hollywood's favourite villain in the 90s, then into the B movies and late TV gold of his final years. This book goes through Hopper's credits, the TV appearances (Medic, 24, Crash), his classic movies (Easy Rider, The Last Movie, American Friend, Apocalypse Now, Blue Velvet), lesser known classics (Tracks, Mad Dog Morgan, River's Edge), odd ball curiosities (White Star, Human Highway, Bloodbath), lost forgotten gems (Last Days of Frankie the Fly, Blackout, Catchfire) and everything in between. This is the ultimate guide to the screen work of Dennis Hopper, one of the most exciting and charismatic actors the world has ever seen.

A career retrospective on one of the all-time great photographers of both music and black culture, Dennis Morris. When we think of the trailblazing photographer Dennis Morris’s work, music is right there. Morris’s adventures in the 1970s reggae and punk scene laid the groundwork for a six-decade career. It all began with Bob Marley: Morris doorstepped Marley in his early teens while skipping school and went on to capture much of Marley’s tour, which launched his career as a music photographer. He later became the official photographer for the Sex Pistols, and for John Lydon’s next project, Public Image Limited, Morris was art director and designer as well as taking iconic images for the band. He captured the greats of reggae and roots music, from Lee 'Scratch' Perry to Toots and Jimmy Cliff, forming friendships with many of the acts. Morris's documentary and street photography work, with roots in his experiences as a Black teenager in 1970s Britain, bring us visionary projects that explore race, politics and cultural identity. From the miner's strike to squat protests, from civil rights organizations to pop-up studio portraits, his work was a reckoning with his new home, capturing eccentricity and individual spirits with his camera. Edited by Laurie Hurwitz, this book unfolds in two electrifying parts: the first unravels Morris’s lens on race, culture and identity in 1970s Britain, while the second pulses with encounters with music legends like Patti Smith, Gregory Isaacs, The Stone Roses and Radiohead. With contributions from agnès B and Sean O’Hagan, the book will delight photography fans and music lovers alike. It includes previously unseen images, and is supported by an internationally touring exhibition, presenting Morris’s influential work in depth for the first time.

Dennis Potter's death in 1994 deprived British television of its most controversial figure. Potter was a prolific writer of genius. Yet while his subversive television plays, such as Pennies from Heaven and The Singing Detective, scandalized and delighted the nation, they also made him the butt of the tabloids, who nicknamed him 'Dirty Den' for his 1989 serial Blackeyes.Humphrey Carpenter, acclaimed biographer of Tolkien, Auden, Pound, Britten and Robert Runcie, interviewed everyone who came close to Potter, and had exclusive access to Potter's archives, including the many unmade television and film scripts. Carpenter portrays a very different Potter from the aggressive public image: a deeply shy and reclusive man, who was psychologically as well as physically scarred by the illness which struck him down at the age of twenty-six. Potter was a man with a vast interest in sex but also a terrible loathing of it, thanks to an appalling experience he suffered in childhood.Potter was a man much gossiped about. Carpenter's remarkable biography establishes the extraordinary truth behind the rumours; describes Potter's strange, obsessive relationships with women such as Gina Bellman, who played Blackeyes; and gives a vivid portrait of the backstage dramas and fights behind Potter's screen triumphs. 'What is valuable about this book is that it reveals Potter's real private life, which barely features in his plays ... A wonderfully vivid portrait of the man: his generosity and cruelty, his coarseness and tenderness, and the thwarted sexual yearning that underlay everything.' Lynn Barber, Daily Telegraph

Dennis Brain is recognized as perhaps the greatest horn player the world has known. He helped rescue the horn from the obscurity in which it had languished for over a century, and revived the public's faith in it as a major solo instrument. Brain restored to the concert platform concertos by Mozart and Haydn, and inspired contemporary composers to write for the horn, most notably the Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings by Benjamin Britten, composed during World War II, a piece which is now central to the repertoire of tenors and horn players. Brain died at the tragically young age of thirty-six in a car crash. The beauty of his playing and his untimely death captured the public imagination like no horn player before or since. This biography was reissued thirty years after his death, and includes a discography. The book also contains an appreciation by Benjamin Britten.'A clear account of Dennis Brain's brilliant career ...' Times Literary Supplement'...an absorbing and extremely well-written account of the orchestral scene in England.'
