Meet Mazie Phillips: big-hearted & feisty, she runs The Venice, the famed movie theatre in the rundown Bowery district of New York City. She spends her days taking tickets, chatting with drunks & eccentrics, & chasing out the troublemakers. After closing up, the nights are her own, & she fills them with romance & booze aplenty
- even during Prohibition. When the Great Depression hits, & homelessness soars, Mazie opens The Venice to those in need, giving them shelter & dimes for food & booze, & earning the nickname ` Saint Mazie`. Inspired by Joseph Mitchell`s essay about Mazie in Up in the Old Hotel, acclaimed author Jami Attenberg`s novel honours an extraordinary life & heralds a completely original approach to writing historical fiction. Weaving together fictionalised diaries, writings & interviews, Attenberg has constructed an utterly convincing portrait of Mazie Philips, which is also a deeply moving portrait of New York as it passed through the First World War, Prohibition, the boom of the `20s, & then the terrible depression of the `30s.

The best rides in the freeride hot spots of the Alps – this is the simple formula of the Freeride Maps. The first map available to freeriders is making the locals freeride knowledge available to a broad public. All ridable slopes, drops & couloirs are marked as freeride corridors in different colours for three difficulty ratings: blue for technically easy terrain, yellow requires advanced to very advanced ability & red is extremely difficult terrain that is partially exposed & therefore reserved to crack riders. Short ascents are marked with red lines. The Freeride Maps are based on topographic maps 1:25, 000. They contain all essential information about the terrain that is necessary for planning & going freeriding. The maps are printed on water resistant & indestructible paper. On the back side, the maps include all relevant planning, safety & rescue information. ...

The old woman threatening the priest with a breadknife, angry peasants with flails & cudgels, Baron von Malchin with a pistol defending his dreams for the Holy Roman Empire-how could Dr. Amberg ignore these? & what of the secret experiment to make a mind-altering drug from a white mildew occurring on wheat-a mildew called Saint Peter`s Snow? ...
