Excellent!.......2000-11-27

Not only is this book a window into a dozen or more wonderful plays, it's also a must-have for any actress dying for something substantial and challenging to perform. It often seems so hard to find a decent female role that hasn't already been played a thousand times..but Ms. Beard proves that there are many lesser-known playwrights out there writing tremendous stuff, and she makes them all readily accessible. I've found great pieces in several books of this yearly series, but this one is by far my favorite.

The Play (is still) The Thing.......2000-07-19

In June I had a play at the Spokane Civic Theatre. (The Playwrights Forum Festival 2000). The same night, "Dixie Chicks" were playing at the Spokane Arena. (The arena parking lot was directly across from the theatre.) Needless to say, thousands came to see the "Dixie Chicks" and about 99 souls came to see the festival plays. (99 is considered a full house in a small theatre.)

Now make no mistake, I'm not taking anything away from high-energy showmanship of The "Dixie Chicks" I only bring it up because I think the incident shows us where our premiums are.

I believe that most people expect to be entertained on a grand scale. When they see a show, they want special effects, dazzling lights, eye-popping costumes, and beautiful people. They want to be distracted and consumed by what they see on stage, not left intact and `thinking.' In short, they want to lose themselves rather than find themselves.

The Best Women's Stage Monologues of 1997 by Jocelyn A. Beard is a collection of monologues by women, who by the force of their talent make us think about ourselves and our place in society. With the `special effects' of words working, the plays make up a rich mosaic of moods that brings the characters alive before our very eyes. It makes us want to read the entire play from which the excerpts are taken.

"Bad Grrrls" by Linda Eisenstein made me want to know more about the relationship of Meg and Dana. How did they meet and where are they going with their lives?

Caitlin Hick's "Singing The Bones" is a powerful monologue about a woman's relationship with her preacher father and what happened the last time she saw him.

"In Search of the Red River Dog" by Sandra Perlman is about a woman who has just been raped by her husband. I would defy any woman (or man either for that matter) to read the monologue without being moved to anger or tears.

Joycelyn A. Beard is responsible for bringing these monologues to the reading public Every year or so they bloom like flowers in their yellow and orange colors as they fill in the tiny monologue collections in Barnes and Noble drama section. Ms. Beard works indefatigably bringing these books to life. It is Joycelyn Beard (and those like her) who keep theatre alive in a time of shrinking budgets and general apathy toward stage productions.

"The Best Women's Stage Monologues of 1997" is a must read for anyone who loves going the theatre and who want to be entertained without being obliterated.

Will satisfy most of tastes: from realistic to high fantasy!.......2003-04-29

GURPS Russia is a very beautiful sourcebook, describing a setting which is almost completely unknown to the "average" RPG player and Game Master. Inside this book you will find the details of a rich history, together with the description of very foreign, mysterious customs and beliefs, such as a forced coexistence of ancient pagan cults with Orthodox Christianity. Perhaps most important, you will feel the strange mood of Russian folklore, whose values and patterns are quite different from the ones the average Western person is accustomed to. In one word, the material inside GURPS Russia will provide the GM information enough to run a successful campaign with a distinct and peculiar flavor. It is not important whether you want a historical setting or the wildest high fantasy: the information on Medieval Russia found in this book will cover both with ease. One footnote: in Russia, the Middle Ages effectively ended in 1725 (Death of Peter the Great)! This opens interesting possibilities for crossover campaigns... If you are interested in historical campaigns in a low-tech setting, this book is a must!

Book Description

Welcome to Sales Management is written for those who aspire to sales management; those who recently assumed sales management responsibilities for the first time; and those who have received little if any formal sales management training. During the first three months on the job it's easy for a new sales manager to take a wrong turn, run in circles or even get lost. This happens to all new managers. WSM is divided into three parts each providing a road map to guide rookie sales manager through their first 90 days and beyond. Part One serves as an introduction to the sales management process and addresses the initial actions taken during the first month on the job. Each action is designed to prepare new managers for their new role. Various methods are offered to assess the sales effectiveness of their teams. Part Two focuses on the disciplines that comprise the sales management process and the skills needed to successfully execute each discipline. There is no time frame associated with Part Two. It can take years or an entire career to master the disciplines and skills associated with the process. Few managers master all of them. Part Three concentrates on launching a new sales manager's career; creating a team action plan; establishing a winning environment; and reviewing several examples of proactive management. These activities take approximately 60 days to initiate or complete. The final chapter encourages new managers to lead and learn as they go and to not be afraid to make mistakes. Summaries are included at the conclusion of each chapter for periodic review and to keep a new sales manager moving in the right direction. An appendix offers an assortment of sales management tools.

Amazon.com's Best of 2001

David Hajdu (pronounced HAY-doo), the prizewinning author of the magisterial jazz biography Lush Life, now steam-cleans the legend of the lost folk generation in Positively 4th Street: The Lives and Times of Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Mimi Baez Fariña, and Richard Fariña. What a ripping read! It's like an invitation to the wildest party Greenwich Village ever saw. You feel swept up in the coffeehouse culture that transformed ordinary suburban kids into ragged, radiant avatars of a traditional yet bewilderingly new music. Hajdu's sociomusical analysis is as scholarly as (though less arty than) Greil Marcus's work; he deftly sketches the sources and evolving styles of his ambitious, rather calculating subjects, proving in the process that genius is not individual--it's rooted in a time and place. Hajdu says Dylan heisted many early tunes (e.g., "Maggie's Farm" from Pete Seeger's "Down on Penny's Farm"): "Dylan [told] a radio interviewer that he felt as if his music had always existed and he just wrote it down ... [in fact], much of his early work had existed as other writers' melodies, chord structures, or thematic ideas." But Dylan and company made it all their own, and Hajdu vividly evokes the scenes they made.

Positively 4th Street is very much a group portrait. When something amazing happens, Hajdu puts you right there. The unknown Baez barefoot in the rain, bedazzling the Newport Jazz Festival and becoming immortal overnight. The irresistibly irresponsible Fariña talking his folk-star wife out of shooting him dead with his own pistol. The "little spastic gnome" Dylan transmogrified into greatness onstage, bashing Joan with the searing lyrics of "She Belongs to Me." A stoned Fariña advising Dylan to cynically hitch his wagon to Joan's rising star and "start a whole new genre. Poetry set to music, but not chamber music or beatnik jazz, man... poetry you can dance to."

The book is as delectably gossipy as Vanity Fair (one of Hajdu's employers). Richard married the exceedingly young beauty Mimi and helmed their career, but he might have dumped her for big sister Joan, whose madcap humor and verbal wit harmonized with his--except that he ineptly killed himself on a motorcycle first. Bob mumblingly courted both sisters, but when he cruelly taunted the insecure Joan, Mimi yanked his hair back until he cried. The account of Bob and Joan's musical-erotic passion is first-rate music history and uproarious soap opera. Hajdu's research is prodigious--even Fariña's close chum Thomas Pynchon granted interviews--and his anecdotes are often off-the-cuff funny: "[Rock manager Albert Grossman] was easy to deal with.... It wasn't till maybe two days after you would see Albert that you'd realize your underwear had been stolen." Full disclosure: Hajdu was one of my long-ago bosses at Entertainment Weekly, but that's certainly not why I heartily endorse this book. It's scholarship with a human face, akin to "poetry you can dance to." --Tim Appelo

Book Description

When twenty-five-year-old Bob Dylan wrecked his motorcycle near Woodstock in 1966 and dropped out of the public eye, he was already recognized as a genius, a youth idol with an acid wit and a barbwire throat; and Greenwich Village, where he first made his mark, was unquestionably the center of youth culture.

In Positively 4th Street, David Hajdu recounts the emergence of folk music from cult practice to popular and enduring art form as the story of a colorful foursome: not only Dylan but also his part-time lover Joan Baez -- the first voice of the new generation; her sister Mimi -- beautiful, haunted, and an artist in her own right; and Mimi's husband, Richard Fariña, a comic novelist (Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up to Me) who invented the worldly-wise bohemian persona that Dylan adopted -- some say stole -- and made his own.

A national bestseller in hardcover, acclaimed as "one of the best books about music in America" (Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post), Positively 4th Street is that rare book with a new story to tell about the 1960s -- about how the decade and all that it is now associated with were created in a fit of collective inspiration, with an energy and creativity that David Hajdu has captured on the page as if for the first time.

Customer Reviews:

Must Read.......2007-04-11

I was reading this book while filming a movie on Bob Dylan this summer-I lost the copy before I was finished but had to buy it again to see how it ends-really a fascinating insight on the whole West Village Folk music scene of the 1960's.

Bob and Joan and Mimi and Richard.......2007-03-26

My Hadju has very little sympathy for any of the characters in this narrative. In his view, Bob is a self-centered jerk, Joan is priggish, Mimi is callow and Richard is a self-promoting charlatan who probably needed medical intervention. Mr. Hadju's only sympathies lie with Mimi who is little and beautiful and sorely used. Oh please. What I found missing was any sense of forgiveness for just how young they were. Only Richard can be held accountable for his caddish behavior because he was older and should have known better. The others were all painfully young and their behavior, reprehensible, naive, touching and all should be interpreted through the highly charged haze of youth. I doubt that anyone's life could withstand this level of strutiny at the age of 22.

I am not a fan of Mr Hadju's writing style, but the book is packed with information.

Sure to become a classic.......2007-03-01

American folk in its both in its development and maturation held the same drama and pathos as any other American music that fused with social movement. The figures that Hajdu chose to focus on in his excellent book became very influential artists of the time, Dylan even attaining a cult-like status.

Like any biography of young people it is filled with betrayal, misunderstandings and bruised egos. As they are portrayed, Dylan and Farina were by far the larger and more fragile of the egos and they hint of the "me" generation's self-importance. The Baez sisters remained "truer" to folk, being less inclined to wed it to rock and other styles. The tragic death of Richard Farina is one of the many turning points in this book that treads lightly on nostalgia. The genius and fallibility of the four figures is portrayed distinctly and without foreshadowing what will become of them outside of this exciting time when music moved people to change the nation.

A disappontment.......2006-12-29

Positively 4th Street had received adulatory reviews. I looked forward to reading it, but was enormously disappointed. The book tells of the tangled relationships among four young people. Nobody comes out looking especially well. My experience has been that people in their twenties often do not behave commendably in their romantic lives. By focusing on these relationships, the book has the distasteful smell of dirty laundry.

Secondly, by presenting four interlocking biographies, the book implicitly equates the four lives covered. Unfortunately, there was an enormous difference in stature among Bob Dylan and Richard Farina and Joan and Mimi Baez. In order to make a go of his book the author must exaggerate the flaws of the mighty and minimize those of the lowly. This authorial imperative makes for an unfair book.

Finally, Mr. Hajdu has a fine magisterial voice - even when he does not know a thing about the subject at hand, like harmonica playing, for example. If he gets every fact wrong on that, how can he be trusted on other matters?

Hero worshipers, stay away.......2006-11-21

Though he is almost, but not quite, forgotten today, Richard Farina was once a hot property. He wrote a novel, "Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up to Me," that swept the college campuses; and he and his wife, Mimi Baez, recorded two albums, "Celebrations for a Grey Day" and "Reflections in a Crystal Wind" that were both artistic and commercial successes.
Farina was ambitious for much more. He wanted to be bigger than Bob Dylan. He wanted Dylan's fame, Dylan's sales, Dylan's girlfriend, Dylan's respect and a motorcycle like Dylan's.
David Hajdu's meticulously detailed "Positively 4th Street" tells a tale that might just as well have been called "Grabbing for the Brass Ring."
Nobody ever came closer more times without getting it than Farina.
It all started with Carolyn Hester. When the "folk revival" began in Boston in the 1950s, the beautiful Hester was an early coffee house star. If anyone was going to break out to national fame, Hester would have seemed the favorite.
But bursting out of the pack of unknowns to surpass her came Joan Baez, with a bell-like voice and, in Hajdu's interpretation, lots of luck.
Farina, a charming schemer, was on another track but he latched onto Hester, moving from first meeting to marriage in 18 days.
From then on, "Positively 4th Street" is an appalling and almost Byzantine account of the ambitious and the unscrupulous climbing over each other's backs for the brass ring.
Baez caught it first. She helped Dylan, who treacherously overtopped her. Farina made his bid, dumping Hester and pursuing Baez.
But he and Dylan were both also angling for Joan's beautiful young sister Mimi. The sisters are supposed to be the models for the story in the Lovin' Spoonful song "DId You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind?" but Hajdu debunks that and some other rock and roll myths, notably the one about Dylan being booed off the stage at the Newport Folk Festival for playing a Stratocaster.
A witty writer, Hajdu never seems to be caught off balance in all this confusion. A typical example of his waspish reporting is this line about Farina and his friend Alfredo Dopico: "Richard and Alfredo were largely redundant: of Cuban ancestry, about the same age and size, strong-featured, impetuous, and volatile, they were both treacherously fond of beautiful women, marijuana, and Richard Farina."
In this crowd, Hajdu sees more clay feet than a shoeshine boy at the Congressional barber shop, but he never confuses that with the impact of the music on the rest of us.
It doesn't hurt, for dramatic purposes, that Farina wrote more than once about death on a motorcycle and with almost perfect timing got killed on one the day of the booksigning party for "Been Down So Long." (Meticulously, Hajdu clears up the misconception that it was on the book's release day; that was two days earlier.)
Only Mimi Farina comes out of this book as an appealing human being.
Hero worshipers should stay away. Music lovers will be fascinated.

This work prompted me to revisit some of the folk &.......2003-12-04

folk-rock music of my youth. Dylan's work has endured of course & Don't Think Twice & Blowin in the Wind has spoken to every generation since.
From the book I got the the impression that Bob Dylan is somewhat limited intellectually. He spouts nonsense & speaks thru his lyrics & is truly a musical genius. He speaks against wealth privledge & the establishement but embraces it. He is exempt. He cannot string two sentences together & apparently was a lousy interview. In the end he has alienated all his old friends from his folk days, while continuing to gather more fans.
Joan Baez story goes beyond the anti-war protest she is known for & delves into her music & relationship with Dylan. It was (a least to her) more than just a affair. She really did love him & furthered his career at the expense of her own. A totally amoral character he discarded her as he eventually does to all his relationship while denying his past, simply a boring Jewish middle class kid form Minnesota.
Mr. Hajda also covers at length Mimi (Joan's younger sister) & Richard Farina. His life was a shooting star, a brief career with much promise. Mimi was along for the ride marrying him at 17. His potential brillance was cut short needlessly & stupidly.
The reader does a good job of imitating Dylan but other attempts not so good. Recommended reading for a good feel for the folk, night club, beat scene of the late 50's & early 60's.

Useful history of unions and the American left.......2006-07-29

"Prisoners of the American Dream" is a two-pronged attack by Mike Davis on the general reactionary tendencies of the 1980s.

The first half of the book is a history of American unions and their relations to attempts to produce an actual progressive, leftist "Labor Party" on American soil. Davis does this in a very in-depth, well-sourced manner which will satisfy even a specialist in the subject. He explains the failures of creating a socialist alternative in the United States as a by no means pre-ordained result, but rather the consequence of contingent factors, among which are the intransigent conservatism and reformism of much of the union leadership (in particular the AFL), the general conservative party machine nature of the Democratic Party, and interethnic rivalries among the workers. This history of the left and the unions goes on until about the Eisenhower administration, then stops as Davis picks up his second line of attack in the second part of the book. One warning though: Davis seems to presume that the reader is already well-versed in the history of American unionism and in American socio-political terminology in general, making it quite difficult at times to follow for the (foreign) layman. The book could have been better with a good explanatory register of names.

The second half of the book is basically an attack on the neoliberal resurgence under Reagan and the complicity of the rightist Democratic Party to the same. Davis is clearly quite outraged at the general conservatism of what is supposed to be America's more progressive political party, and spends many pages outlining the failures of the Democratic leaders. He underlines his arguments with many a spiffy statistic for this purpose. However, much time has already passed since 1987, and his rather superficial and one-sided attack on everything to the right of Jesse Jackson is preaching to the choir. Most useful in this part is the epilogue, where he makes a series of political predictions about both parties based on his analysis, many of which have since turned out to be surprisingly correct. Yet one can skip the whole second part of the book without any real problem.

Generally the book is well-reasoned but relatively dry and dense. It could have done with a bit more livening up at times, and Davis tends to repeat himself just a little too much. Recommended to socialists of all stripes interested in the history of (radical) unions in America.

Just astounding! I have stayed at three of the lookout featured in the book, and they are every bit as wonderful as the book illustrates. This book is a must for the nature lover. I'm not much of a hiker or skier, so fortunately this book tells you how difficult it is to reach each lookout. And most all the lookouts are a mere $25-$40 a night! My lookout trips have been the best vacations I've ever had. Please, please pick up this book if you plan to be in Oregon for any length of time and love great scenery...
