    A proud Armenian who claimed a distant link to nobility, born in what was then part of czarist Russia, Rouben Mamoulian (1897-1987) was one of the most astonishing and confounding figures in American film and theater, directing the original stage productions of Porgy and Bess, Carousel, and Oklahoma!, as well as films including Love Me Tonight, Queen Christina, City Streets, and Silk Stockings. He was famously fired from the film version of Porgy and Bess in a dispute over publicity and quit Cleopatra after arguments over a single scene. Mamoulian's mercurial confidence and autocratic tendencies were among the reasons he had a reputation for being uncompromising. This frustrating mix of genius and stubbornness, of critical successes and financial flops, has proven challenging for biographers.Kurt Jensen's magisterial volume, extensively researched and filled with trenchant observations, brings to life this charming, flawed, and fascinating man-and demonstrates how the wellspring of his art contained the seeds of his own destruction. Drawing upon Mamoulian's unfinished memoir and voluminous diaries, as well as interviews with the director's surviving collaborators, Jensen delivers fresh and informative insider stories from seminal productions. Meanwhile, he explores Mamoulian's aesthetic principles and strategies as manifested in lighting, choreography, and sound design. A tour de force, Peerless offers readers a multifaceted, in-depth look at an idiosyncratic genius.

    A serial killer is often chronically aggressive and they seem to have an over-controlled hostility towards others. Often they have been hurt and are resentful and traumatized. They become obsessive, paranoid and then insane. At this point they have lost control and can no longer control their needs. It is disturbing to note that serial killers are actually very rational and calculating. When it comes to serial killers many were physically or emotionally abused by parents, as children, fledgling serial killers often set fires, torture animals, and wet their beds. Surprisingly many have either attempted to become police, but were rejected, worked as security guards, or served in the military. In this book we will look at many aspects of the serial killer; for instance what qualifies as a serial killer? How do they choose their victims? Who are some of the most famous serial killers? And, we will look more closely at the unsolved murders by serial killers.
