Stanislavsky in Focus brilliantly examines the history and actual premises of Stanislavsky’s 'System', separating myth from fact with forensic skill. The first edition of this now classic study showed conclusively how the 'System' was gradually transformed into the Method, popularised in the 1950s by Lee Strasberg and the Actor’s Studio. It looked at the gap between the original Russian texts and what most English-speaking practitioners still imagine to be Stanislavsky’s ideas.This thoroughly revised new edition also delves even deeper into:the mythical depiction of Stanislavsky as a tyrannical director and teacheryoga, the mind-body-spirit continuum and its role in the ‘System’how Stanislavsky used subtexts to hide many of his ideas from Soviet censors. The text has been updated to address all of the relevant scholarship, particularly in Russia, since the first edition was published. It also features an expanded glossary on the System's terminology and its historical exercises, as well as more on the political context of Stanislavsky's work, its links with cognitive science, and the System's relation to contemporary developments in actor-training. It will be a vital part of every practitioner's and historian's library.

After the loss of everyone HELENE PARISH loves and horrific premonitions of things she fears are to come, she is drawn to the town of Glenhaven, Tennessee. The place doesn't even appear on a map and dead ends at the end of a treacherous winding road known as the Dragon's Neck. The town's doctor, AMSEL RICHTER, might be the sexiest man Helene has ever met with his over six-foot frame and unusual violet eyes. He also has the most infuriating ability to know exactly what she is really feeling. In fact, the entire town seems to have Helene's number, understanding things about her and her abilities that she has kept hidden her entire life. When Helene investigates strange lights in the woods and encounters a terrifying winged being, she is sure Amsel is hiding something. Then, there is the matter of the arrival of a letter from the birth mother she never knew, claiming there are things about herself that she needs to know. Helene is determined to find answers. But will she be able to accept the future she is bound to?
The Dang Contraption was always supposed to open up a portal. Gram spent years building it after the strange disappearance of her brother, Altamont. Now, it might actually work. When it malfunctions and puts Gram in a coma, Micah turns to the only person he can trust to help him, his ex-best friend, Carson. Without warning, the boys are sucked through a whirlpool and cross into another dimension. But things are rotten in the town of Paradise, and it can't be a coincidence that they were brought here. Neither can, discovering that Micah's great uncle is living here and that he is married to Charybdis, daughter of Poseidon, and who is definitely not a sea monster. Unraveling an evil plot to destroy Paradise will not be easy for ex-friends who can't stop fighting. And without teamwork, all hope may truly be lost.

Then her daddy can stop being disappointed in her and finally get around to teaching her the butterfly stroke that she desperately wants to learn. CARLA ABREU isn't happy about moving to a new town. It's full of hillbillies and so far from El Paso, Texas, she fears her mother will never find them here should she ever come looking. Just her luck that the evil Gardenia witnessed the dumbest thing she's ever done and is using it to force her to go along with her weird plan. It could even expose the Mexican roots Carla wishes to hide. Gardenia will go to any lengths necessary to get what she wants. Carla fears it will only bring more heartache her way. And since Gardenia lost the wishing rock her daddy brought back all the way from Greece, those Delphi Gods haven't exactly been showering them with favor. Much is at stake, and only the Gods truly know why fate has brought the two of them together.
