OK so I'll let you all into a little secret - Debbie Harry was my very first childhood crush. Parallel Lines was the first album that I ever purchased with my pocket money and I still have a vivid memory of Blondie's front woman parading around a stage on Top of the Pops wearing a ripped plastic bin liner and not a lot else. Oh those were the days of my twisted, adolescent fantasies?..
When I recently stumbled across a biography on the pop icon that is Debbie Harry in a charity shop it was inevitable that I was going to part with my 50p, if only to try and recapture some of my childhood dreams and besides I had four plane journeys in a week ahead of me so I needed plenty of reading material.
Platinum Blonde is the title of a portrait of Debbie Harry written by Cathay Che. It was written with Harry's full co-operation and when ...
Advantages: Fascinating story, evocative details, beautiful writing Disadvantages: I didn't want it to end
"A Portrait of a Turkish Family" is an autobiographical work that tells the story of one Ottoman family from the turn of the twentieth century through the First World War and the establishment of Turkey as a republic.
Irfan Orga was the eldest of three children; his mother was born into the harem - as were most women of such standing - and married at the age of thirteen. When the book opens, Irfan and his parents and younger brother live with his paternal grandparents and a host of servants. Orga describes an often idyllic childhood with warmth and humour, depicting the childlike vigour of his mother, the haughtiness of his grandmother and the kindness of the servants. One memorable episode describes a trip to the hamam (Turkish baths) with his mother and grandmother that is like a trip to the beach with the servants instructed to ...
If you stop and think for a moment why so many people want to review this DVD, the answer becomes apparent very quickly! It is for no reason simpler than the fact that it is a phenomenal movie, a legend of its time!
JK Rowling first wrote the harry potter book, the philosophers stone, many years before it was turned into a film. But it was such a huge success that eventually one did come about in 2001. The Harry Potter craze hit the nation, but what was it about?
Harry Potter was a young boy who thought he had a normal life living with his aunt and uncle and cousin, who taught him horridly. Though one day on his birthday a large giant-like man stormed in and took him away. This was no monster though - he was called Hagrid and he was off to take Harry to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! If this film, we see harry ...

Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (12/26/96, p.189) - "...moves gracefully from groundbreaking duets with Gram Parsons to her subtle treatment of songs by writers as diverse as Stephen Foster and Bruce Springsteen. For all of the dulcet, stand-alone clarity of her soprano, Harris sounds best in harmony..." Q (4/97, p.137) - 5 Stars (out of 5) - "...this is a truly comprehensive compilation, Harris's emotive range on these well-chosen songs simply breathtaking." Entertainment Weekly (12/20/96, p.77) - "...A perfect introduction to a maverick who has chosen quality over trends and kept the heart of authentic country music beating." - Rating: A
