What does it mean when a fictional hero takes a journey? Shares a meal? Gets drenched in a sudden rain shower? Often, there is much more going on in a novel or poem than is readily visible on the surface - a symbol, maybe, that remains elusive, or an unexpected twist on a character - and there's that sneaking suspicion that the deeper meaning of a literary text keeps escaping you. In this practical and amusing guide to literature, Thomas C. Foster shows how easy and gratifying it is to unlock those hidden truths.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Story
In this brave and moving memoir, Corey Feldman is revealing the truth about what his life was like behind the scenes: His is a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from which he was emancipated at age fifteen, three high-profile arrests for drug possession, a nine-month stint in rehab, and a long, slow crawl back to the top of the box office.

A huge help.
this was a huge help in leasing the RP accent. I got more each time I practiced along. I also found it useful for the modern Irish accent the actress/ student had.

Very Practical
As advertised, this title is aimed at the preson who understands the basics of the RP already, and needs pointers on how to produce the sound naturally. It is extrememly useful for anyone who does not want to sound like some annoying spinster aunt, or Carol Burnett's stage RP. She's being hysterical; you want to sound as if you went to Oxford.

Magnificent
This book is helpful for those interested in British RP and in phonetics in general, but don't think you can learn te accent with this book alone.The audible version doesn't give you sufficient theoretical basis. But if you've already got it, then the book will be comprehensive.

Good content, zero organization
This book is specifically about English accents.
It is short, but also concise so thats not really a bad thing.
however there is no aparent organization to the book, not so much as chapter numbers, it just kind of flows from one thing to another with almost no context.
still, very helpful content if youre trying to pick up one of several english accents, and you can learn useful techniques for picking up other accents or changing your own speech patterns.

Wonderful resource
It's a wonderful opportunity to hear RP being discussed by an English acting coach and an Irish actress. This is much more helpful than learning RP from an American teacher, no matter how well trained. The British discussion gives an insight you'll never get from listening to American discussions -- not just the How's of the accent, but lots of the Why's. For example, I had never heard that the reason the tongue stays low in the mouth for RP is that for many years English society held that it was vulgar for the tongue to be visible even during speech.
There is one unfortunate thing about this Audible release: they refer several times to the information in the "booklet that accompanies this disc" (including mentioning that the practice sentences can be found in the booklet), but, of course, there is no booklet available for the Audible version.

Awesome how-to!!
I liked how they introduced and taught the accent to someone trying to grasp the accent. The wide use of examples and tips have helped me understand my own errors.
