- The most comprehensive overview of movie posters ever published, 1001 MOVIE POSTERS is a definitive coffee table volume from world authority, Tony Nourmand.
- Spanning more than a century of global imagery, it celebrates the most arresting, aesthetically powerful examples of the genre, including posters that have never been published before.
- There has always been a raw immediacy to film posters: provoking and enticing, shocking and seducing audiences across the threshold of the movie theatre. The artists tasked with communicating that have been at the forefront of design: ground-breaking visionaries such as Saul Bass, Paul Rand; Eastern-European artists using poetic, surreal and often disturbing imagery in highly original and subversive concepts. Others have woven contemporaneous movements in art and popular culture into their designs, creating a time-capsule of the obsessions and concerns of a different era.Iconic posters such as Metropolis, The Man with the Golden Arm, Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Goldfinger sit alongside more unexpected and lesser-known artwork for films such as 2001, Star Wars and Taxi Driver. Nearly all cinematic movements are included, from early silent masterpieces through German Expressionism, film noir, 1950s science fiction, the psychedelic 1960s, the gritty violence and retribution of the 1970s and 1980s, and then onwards into the 21st century, where the stripped-back graphics nod to the Bass minimalism of the 1950s.Steeped in nostalgia, this beautiful and diverse collection features posters from over 20 countries and represents the work of over 150 art directors and illustrators. An extraordinary visual compendium, it is the final word on movie posters and is a must for film lovers and anyone with even a passing interest in the power of advertising and design.

Good Reading
Format: Paperback
The third book we chose to read for our summer reading program was Not That Pet! I am a nanny of a six-year-old girl going into first grade. It’s fun seeing a child’s eyes light up when a book or story engages their imagination. This story was another hit.
This was an entertaining read! This is a rhyming read-aloud story that had us both giggling from the beginning of the story to the end. The main character, Mabel, is allowed to pick the family pet. She is determined to find the perfect pet. Her choices had us groaning, ‘oh nooo’ while shaking our heads and laughing out loud. We couldn’t read fast enough to see Mabel’s next choice. Her final decision was unpredictable. We couldn’t believe the final choice was a…. well, you’ll just have to read the story yourself to find out.
The illustrations themselves had us smirking. We took the time to really look at the pages and discovered small details that really added to the enjoyment of the story. We read this story several times which is an indicator that this book is a keeper.
Enjoy reading Summer 2023!

As good As It Get
Format: Kindle
I read the second book in this cottage series about smart town/village life in the Cotswolds before this first one. Both are so very very good and touching. Can't wait to read the third one in this series. These sapphic HEA romances are as good as it gets.

Sweet, Escapist, and Good Characters
Format: Kindle
I enjoyed the setting of this book. I love a book with a good sense of place. The chemistry between the characters was good and built through the story, I thought the book could have benefited from heavier editing. I appreciated the good dialogue, but it seemed unnecessarily copious at times, putting a drag on the forward motion of the story. Worth my time - absolutely.

Bravo!
Format: Kindle
"For two people who love words, we f***ing suck at communication." These words, uttered near the end of the book, really describe the relationship between Josie and Harriett (Harry). They have both built their careers on the crafting of words, but when it comes to them communicating with each other, there are many misunderstandings, foot-in-mouth moments, and missed opportunities to say how they feel. That, along with each one's hesitation to make the first move, causes the sexual tension to build and build, so when they finally do get together... well, you don't want to miss that!
The contrast of Josie, the American, and Harry, the Brit, is fun. The story is heart-warming. The banter is enjoyable and doesn't seem like it's just filling space in the book. The supporting characters are colorful and have depth. I really enjoyed it, so I say, "Bravo, TB Markinson! A standing ovation from me!"
