Two men dreaming: A memoir, a journey

Cowan, James

Time Flies

<p>Time Flies is an idiosyncratic memoir with a distinctive voice and a sense of the absurd: a wistful, reflective, sometimes comic view of a childhood in a remote mining village in Southern Spain, the dislocating shock of a Scottish boarding school education, and a remarkable introduction to working life in London at Time Out then at Virgin, both at the peak of their maverick self-confidence. A tireless spokesman for the company, and an improbable mouthpiece for the Sex Pistols at the time of their greatest fame and vilification, he later went on to produce numerous notable films, several classics among them.</p>

Opposite the lion's den: A story of hiding Dutch Jews

Huygens, Daniel Johannes

Mortal Divide: The A

George, Alexander

This is the controversial story of a Jewish community founded in one of the furthermost corners of the world. Suzanne Rutland charts this community's history from its convict origins through the turmoil of the twentieth century which saw numerous waves of Jewish immigrants reach Australia's shores. Jews fleeing Nazism arrived in the thirties. They were followed by survivors of the Holocaust and then by refugees from Hungarian Communism in the fifties. More recent waves have brought Soviet and South African Jews. Edge of the Diaspora documents the story of this vibrant community that has integrated but maintained its Jewish identity.

<p>This is the intimate story of the influences human, political and artistic which shaped the life of Harry Seidler, disciple of Bauhaus architecture. Alice Spigelman explores Seidlers introduction to architecture as a schoolboy in England, the country which betrayed him; his internment in Canada; his Harvard years as a student of Gropius and Marcel Breuer, and finally his years in Australia and the forty year love-hate relationship between him and his critics.</p>

Contemporary Singapore: Actress Chiang Ching performs Madame Mao Tse-Tung on stage while her husband, Tang, is arrested and detained without trial. Struggling to understand her own role and her country's cultural and political history Chiang Ching, like her alter-ego, becomes increasingly delusional, and the lines of her world - the real, mythical and imagined - become blurred. Lau Siew Mel creates a challenging and potent weave of Chinese diaspora, political intrigue and personal journeys in a battle for meaning.
