It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today.

I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Desde as bem feitas e de boa métrica até as malfaladas e malditas.

Die Incantatio, die Beschwörung der Liebe − das ist die Grundstimmung in der Musik des Amadeus, unabhängig von den Auseinandersetzungen um Freimaurerhintergrund und Zauberflötenpathos. Mit diesem Hörbuch soll − in dem Rahmen eines fragmentarischen Porträts − vor allem versucht werden, Mozarts "heroische Leidenschaft" in einem größeren geistesverwandtschaftlichen Zusammenhang aufzuzeigen. "Ich küsse Dich 1000mal und sage in Gedanken mit Dir: Tod und Verzweiflung war sein Lohn!" (Mozart in einem Brief vom 11. Juni 1791 an Constanze Mozart).

Through Dylan's eyes and open mind, we see Greenwich Village, circa 1961, when he first arrives in Manhattan.

It also provides a unique lens through which to examine the post-Reagan, pre-internet America of the 1990s. In the six lectures of The Story of Grunge, you’ll explore the rise and evolution of the genre, tracing it from Seattle subculture to MTV and the Billboard charts, all the way to its decline and evolution into new forms.
