Published fifty years after the premiere of Entertaining Mr Sloane in 1964; and with a new introduction; this anniversary edition offers an opportunity to reappraise Joe Ortons reputation; and the status of his first major play; from a twenty-first century perspective. When it first appeared in the Swinging Sixties; Ortons satire on social and sexual hypocrisy both scandalized and delighted audiences. Its mix of sexuality and violence was explosive. Within a year; the play was being performed around the world and went on to be adapted for film and television; establishing Orton as a major voice and this play as one of the most ground-breaking of the century. This anniversary edition features previously unpublished material from the Joe Orton Archive; an interview with director Nick Bagnall; and an introduction by Emma Parker; Senior Lecturer in English at the University of Leicester.

I recently got into coloringBy SilverdogUnlike some other Kindle coloring books; this one has a link to download and print these on your own. I like that. I recently got into coloring. Its something my son and I can do together while we are at the cabin relaxing. My son is only 6 so he cant color these very well but its an activity he and I can do together and share our results with one another.Disclaimer - I received this ebook for free in exchange for my honest; unbiased; and fair review. In no way has this influenced my review. I rely on reviews just as much as you do and detest fake five star reviews. I very much appreciate reviewers who take the time to provide their honest and unbiased reviews and; for that; I am extremely grateful to them.When I need or would like particular products; I take the time to research those products as I do quite a lot of online shopping. I also take the time to test every product; whether received for free; at a discount; or for full sale price; to find out if the item holds true to its claim.If you found my review to be helpful in any way; then I trust that I have provided the necessary details to make your buying decision an informative and positive one.Should you have any questions; please feel free to ask away and hopefully I can provide an answer. Thank you for taking the time to read my review; it is very much appreciated.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Access to more downloadsBy JazCute little coloring book. It is not like the cover though. It has 14 different single animal images to color but none of them are the great elephant on the cover. But buying this gives you free access to tone of other coloring sheet downloads through Speedy Publishing; which makes it worth it to me. Cute little coloring book. It is not like the cover though.

I really enoy looking at books. Even if its just to look and i dont purchase. The whole thing of these ebooks to check out i love this idea. This one isn The same old thing over and over. I have seen these all before. I do love these books jsut there the same animals i have seen. Now you may like them or not this is just my opionon only. But i would leave this one on the shelfI received this product for free or at a discounted rate in exchange for product testing and review. I am under no obligation to provide a positive review and received no incentives or rewards for doing so. My goal is to highlight features and drawbacks that I would want to know about as a buyer; not hype the product for the manufacturer to increase sales. My remarks are sincere and true. I work very hard trying to write insightful and thoughtful reviews for each item. I hope that these reviews are helpful to others. While it is true that many items are received at discounted rates or complimentary; my reviews are completely unbiased as well as honest and are my personal experiences and opinion of the product. Once again; it is just my own opinion and experience with the product; your own opinion and experience may vary. I received no monetary compensation and am not required to give a good review
