Introducing Dr. Gavriel Reisner

Author: Christina - Published 2017-04-12 16:50 - (26492 Reads)

America Pageant


I found my sex in the trail-blaze to the North Queen

Hopper's nude wide as a prairie
laid low across Continents
spread to snowy breasts
extended up Banff down Peru
the Grand Canyon in daubs of paint
copper crevices shimmering climaxes

overgrown, awkward, unintelligent America,
humble giant gentile clutz
well-intentioned, well-intentioned
but sudden cut of cold-eyed malice...

32-Hour Perspectives presents

A PERFECT PICTURE

A world premiere at the 2016 Montreal Saint-Ambroise Fringe Festival
9-18 June 2016
Written and performed by Laurent McCuaig-Pitre
Directed by Len Richman

http://www.montrealfringe.ca Phone 514-849-3378

Every once in a while, one comes across a story that becomes of great importance to the self and the collective. Every once in a while, one discovers an actor that has the innate ability to manifest that story. I found that story, its writer and the actor all in one package. A privilege, indeed. Collaboration is a meeting of hearts and minds. The partnership of script, actor and director is here in “A Perfect Picture” that tells the tragic story of a South African war photographer Kevin Carter, who in 1994, won the Pulitzer Prize for an iconic photo of the famine in Sudan. A photo of a vulture preying upon an emaciated toddler near the village of Ayod...

UNESCO World Book and Copyright Day, 23 April 2016

Author: Christina - Published 2016-04-08 15:14 - (2569 Reads)

"Literacy is the door to knowledge, essential to individual self-esteem and empowerment. Books, in all forms, play an essential role here." Irina Bokova, Director General, UNESCO

23 April is a symbolic date for world literature. It is on this date that the birth and deaths occurred of prominent authors. (Shakespeare, Cervantes, et al.) It was a natural choice for UNESCO's General Conference, held in Paris in 1995, to pay a world-wide tribute to books and authors on this date, encouraging everyone, and in particular young people, to discover the pleasure of reading and gain a renewed respect for the irreplaceable contributions of those, who have furthered the social and cultural progress of humanity.

In this regard, UNESCO created World Book and Copyright Day.


The Advisory Board and Friends of the Library representatives will be giving out roses on that day.

Introducing: Shivers and Signposts: The journey continues, by Len Richman, 14 September 2015

Author: Christina - Published 2015-08-22 11:20 - (10093 Reads)
In June 2008, the Thomas More Institute launched Len Richman’s Raindrops Glimpses Moments: An Unconventional Memoir Of An Unplanned Journey. Seven years later, the Institute will be launching Len’s subsequent memoir, Shivers & Signposts: The Journey Continues. Resuming his exploration of ‘life’ in the passing, he shows that he still has much to do, and much to say.

Len Richman is a longstanding member of Invisible Cities. As a teacher, scholar, traveler, writer and actor, he’s an exemplar of the many creatively engaged people we have been fortunate to connect with over the years: our independent publishers, in particular, who have successfully brought their literary works into the public realm.

A word of thanks, also, to Thomas More Institute, a unique and much loved Montreal institution of culture and learning. http://www.thomasmore.qc.ca

Introducing Len Richman and RAINDROPS GLIMPSES MOMENTS, a Memoir

Author: Christina - Published 2015-08-22 11:19 - (18646 Reads)

Raindrops Glimpses Moments

An Unconventional Memoir of an Unplanned Journey

If, according to Socrates, the unexamined life is not worth living, is the converse always true? When a person has actively embraced life, living it to the fullest, is there time for philosophical musings, looking backward, contemplating the meaning, and sharing with generations to come? The answer is yes, as the new memoir, Raindrops Glimpses Moments clearly demonstrates. With the same exuberant energy that supported Len Richman in his worldwide travels, academic pursuits, friendships, and family life, the author reflects and shares his personal examination of his life and the lives that have touched his...
