Laura Brown

Kim Simmonds and Savoy Brown celebrated fifty years of recording, and touring, with a live album recorded at the Palace Theater, Syracuse NY in 2014. The band sound as fresh as when they started in 1965. The hits are here, Tell Mama, Train To Nowhere and Louisiana Blues, as well as new songs such as Goin' To The Delta. This is British blues/rock as it should be, once again exemplified by one of the genre's authentic founders.

Laura Pulido traces the roots of third world radicalism in Southern California during the 1960s and 1970s in this accessible, wonderfully illustrated comparative study. Focusing on the Black Panther Party, El Centro de Acción Social y Autonomo (CASA), and East Wind, a Japanese American collective, she explores how these African American, Chicana/o, and Japanese American groups sought to realize their ideas about race and class, gender relations, and multiracial alliances.

"There has never been a guide as comprehensive as this to writing in all its forms. . . . Useful, clear and encyclopedic, this book is an essential guide for every household."—Examiner

In 1951, Laura Brown, a pregnant housewife, is planning a party for her husband, but she can't stop reading the novel 'Mrs. Dalloway'. Clarissa Vaughn, a modern woman living in present times is throwing a party for her friend Richard, a famous author dying of AIDS. These two stories are simultaneously linked to the work and life of Virginia Woolf, who's writing the novel mentioned before.
