As the title implies, the latest from Lebanese artist Yara Asmar combines ambient synths with treated accordion in dreamlike songs. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 31, 2023 go to album

Al día siguiente mi cuerpo estaba completamente azul. No podía abrir los labios para hablar ni mover ninguna otra parte de mi ser sin que me doliera. Estaba allí, hundido en la cama, haciéndome a la idea de morir, y entonces entró mi madre con la camisa que yo llevaba durante la pelea. La extendió furiosa delante de mi cara y dijo: –¡Mira, tienes manchas de sangre en la camisa! ¡Manchas de sangre! –¡Lo siento! –¡Nunca las podré sacar! ¡NUNCA! –Son manchas de su sangre. –¡No importa! ¡Es sangre! ¡Y no se quita!” Edna walked off, smiling a bit. She also had a feeling of repulsion. By the time she reached her apartment she had forgotten about him. It was some hours later, sitting in the bathtub, that she thought about him again and this time she thought how truly lonely he must be to do such a thing: everything is held together by a unique taste that pursue passion and curiosity. Music speaks about itself through itself. of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars South of No North by Charles Bukowski

You know, sometimes if a man doesn’t believe in what he is doing he can do a much more interesting job because he isn’t emotionally caught up in his Cause.”

fantastic album. passion and vibrance like this reminds me of why i love music. Knight Falchion go to album Notable shows: On 23/3/1984 they performed live for their first time at Σχολικό Συγκρότημα Γκράβας (Athens), along with 'Στρυχνίνες', 'Ghetto', ' Cpt Neφos', ' Metro Decay', ' Art Of Parties', ' Yell-O-Yell'&' Villa 21'. On 16/3/1985 they performed live at Πήγασος Club (Athens), along with ' Villa 21'. On 13/3/1987 they performed live at Muswell's Pub (Athens). On 17/9/1987 they performed live at Club 17 (Kiato, Korinthos), along with ' Συμμορία'. When he and his stories intersect, the results can be revealing, funny and surprisingly theatrical.... This Bukowski is no simple hero of the disenfranchised, and South of No North is most involving when it unfurls this rare psyche through such complex moments, when Bukowski keys into his pathetic characters with frightened identification and amused sympathy. Mr. Payne finds humor and pathos in the role.... Even his narration, with its languorous hold on words even as his sentences round to a close, suggests the writer's intoxication with the life of his mind. It is a rich performance.

South of No North was followed nearly a decade later by Bukowski's last collection solely devoted to short stories, Hot Water Music, but by then his power as a short story writer was waning. [ citation needed] He later admitted that "the short story had deserted me", though he was able to occasionally generate a gem like No Wing High (collected in the 1990 poetry and short story collection Septuagenarian Stew) in his later years.

Edna got out of the tub, toweled, dressed and left her apartment. The car was still there. She took down the man’s name, Joe Lighthill, and the phone number. She read the typewritten section again. Motion pictures. What an odd term to use. People said movies now. Woman Wanted. The sign was very bold. He was original there.There were three of us, me, Baldy, and Jimmy. Our big day was Sunday. On Sunday we met at Baldy’s house and took the streetcar down to Main Street. Carfare was seven cents.

Some of the works included in this collection are more vignettes than short stories. There is little in the way of development and in some cases the climax of the story is nonexistent or misfires. There are interesting settings, however, in many of these stories and as sketches many of them work well.

SOUTH OF NO NORTH: Live Performance Works by Ruth Barker and Romany Dear, & Film Screenings - Sat 3 Oct, 7pm http://bit.ly/1HDD3Vq As are the novels, Bukowski's stories are raw and gritty. They are filled with life in Los Angeles flophouses and cheap rooming houses. The stories feature chronic alcoholism, crude sexuality, sexual frustration, horseplaying, violence, and joblessness. They are a chronicle of the life of the down-and-outer.
