The World of Mike Royko by Doug Moe, X

The World of Mike Royko by Doug Moe, X
Pull up a stool, tap a beer, and immerse yourself in the world of one of the twentieth century's most celebrated journalists. This abundantly illustrated biography is the first account of the colorful life of newspaperman Mike Royko, the Pulitzer prize-winning columnist who personified Chicago in all its rough-edged charm, yet whose talent was appreciated by readers around the world. In columns for the Chicago Daily News, then the Chicago Sun-Times, and finally the Chicago Tribune, Royko's biting wit was syndicated in more than 600 newspapers, and he was courted and feared by national political figures. He was even the inspiration for the John Belushi role in the film Continental Divide. But Royko's beginnings could not have been more humble. Raised in a flat above a tavern on Chicago's Polish Northwest Side, Royko -- like the marvelous character he created in his columns, Slats Grobnik -- was a street-smart wiseguy, tending bar though barely a teen. Drawing on exclusive photos, letters, and interviews with Royko's family and friends, author Doug Moe, himself a daily newspaper columnist, chronicles Royko's remarkable rise to prominence. Seemingly destined for jail or the morgue, the young Royko enlisted in the air force and found his calling after lying his way into a job on the base newspaper. The blunt humor that was his sword as a writer was evident early, but readers will also meet another Royko, a sensitive and often insecure man who wrote more than 100 letters home to the sweetheart he would later marry, who loved classical music as well as neighborhood bars, and who was devastated by his first wife's death but made the most of his second chance at marriage andfatherhood. Royko honed his knowledge of Chicago politics as a reporter for the legendary City News Bureau before meeting the grueling challenge of a daily newspaper column. In 8,000 columns spanning thirty-four years, Royko's most frequent subject was Chicago's rambunctious politics.



The Dazzle and Everett Beekin by Richard Greenberg,
The Dazzle and Everett Beekin by Richard Greenberg,
Two "haunting and luminous" (Hedy Weiss, "Chicago Sun-Times) plays from the author of "Take Me Out and "Three Days of Rain In "The Dazzle, Richard Greenberg takes on the story of the Collyer brothers, legendary New York eccentrics who, following their deaths in 1947, were found to have collected more than 136 tons of trash within their grand but crumbling Harlem manse. As depicted by Richard Greenberg, Langley and Homer Collyer are consumed by their obsessions--Homer reveling in telling tall tales, Langley captured by the "dazzle" of images contained within objects--in this "beautiful, disturbing, shockingly funny and profoundly humane play by a masterful dramatist" (Hedy Weiss, "Chicago Sun-Times). "Everett Beekin explores the tensions between the safety of family and the yearning for a larger life through the relationships of two sets of Jewish sisters. Set in the 1940s, Act One opens with Anna and Sophie dining in their mother's Lower East Side tenement, bickering over the presence of their sister Miri's Gentile suitor, Jimmy. In Act Two, fifty years later, Anna's daughters Nell and Celia meet on a California beach before the wedding of Nell's daughter Laurel. Linking the generations is the name Everett Beekin--Jimmy's business partner and, later, Laurel's prospective bridegroom Everett Beekin VIII. As the play unfolds, Everett Beekin becomes "a haunted, restless meditation on American rootlessness" (Ben Brantley, "The New York Times).
