Off Nevsky Prospekt is the first study to be published in English of the exceptionally rich and diverse theatre studio movement which has flourished in St Petersburg during the 1980s and 90s. Professor Markova charts the development of the theatre studios - from their beginnings as a reaction to the repressive atmosphere of the Soviet period and through the "theatre bacchanalia" of the Perestroika years. She then surveys todays vibrant scene; with analyses of key productions and interviews with many of the central figures; and describes how theatre studios have subverted the conventions of the past to create a new dialogue with the changing society from which their audience is drawn.

BrownThis is a good book that shows the intricacies of posing larger women. The emphasis is on how to hide bulging parts. There are some great words of advice on a variety of little details on creating proper exposure and looks on peoples faces. I would have given it five stars but I believe the premise of hiding bulges suggests that people with bulges are not pretty and special poses are necessary to hide troublesome places. I am more interested in exploring capturing the beauty of people regardless of their size and without hiding the bulges.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good photography tips for plus-size subjectsBy Christopher Jonathan RamirezThis book has a lot of good tips on posing; lighting; prop use and clothing choices. A lot of repetition in the book keeps me from giving it a higher score. But overall it gives some good advice on photographing plus-size women.
