A haunting and poignant study of mother-daughter relationships; about the controversial psychoanalyst Melanie Klein . In 1934 the son of Melanie Klein; Britains most admired psychoanalyst; was reported killed in a climbing accident. There were no witnesses. Nicholas Wrights play shows the effect of this shattering and unexpected death on Mrs Klein; on her daughter and on her new assistant Paula; a young refugee from Hitlers Berlin. Melanie Klein had herself come to Britain from Berlin with a controversial mission to extend psychoanalysis to infants. But her analysis of her own children has damaged her relationship with them almost beyond repair; and the news of her sons death provokes a bitter confrontation with her daughter. Mrs Klein premiered at the Cottesloe; National Theatre; London; in August 1988. so literate; intelligent; amusing and; finally; moving Telegraph intense... exerts an increasingly powerful grip Guardian brilliant... coruscating dialogue and knowing humour The Stage

My students are learning skills and gaining finger and hand flexibility and strength while playing the exercisesBy TwinMama08I had this book when I took piano lessons starting in the early 80s and remember them well. I recently started teaching again and came across them and immediately ordered two! My kids like the short warm ups; but they are learning skills and gaining finger and hand flexibility and strength while playing them. They love the names of the exercises and it falls back on when I compare needing to warm up before playing with needing to warm up before participating in sports. These exercises are the warm up for finger sports! Sometimes doing scales over and over gets boring and tiresome; this book helps break that up!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
