The fog is getting worse... A couple empty beer bottles rattle in the back seat, but I forgot they were there. My family portrait-we took it a year before the accident-sits taped to the dash. It's the only image left of her. I can't see the road anymore, and there is a car coming straight at me with his brights on, but my eyes are still fixed on the picture. Jim looks up at me and smiles. I catch his glance from the corner of my eye and smile back... Unconscious after a tragic accident, a man finds himself trapped in his imagination. Feeling anguish and resentment toward his past decisions, fear dominates his mentally-constructed world. In a journey through a phantasmal place in which he is faced with regret and self-hatred, every character he encounters represents a part of him and his shattered life. After losing everything he once held dear, each step in this nightmarish trek brings him closer to realizing what life is worth. In time, fear turns to beauty, and what he thinks he lost might actually be found in the mess of emotions that plague his troubled soul. Let The Motions of a Reckless Soul cause you to slip into your own imagination, and you will undoubtedly discover catharsis through the experience of battling through breaking points and finding redemption. Through one character's journey of suspense and tragedy, you can peel back the layers of the human experience and understand who we all really are underneath it all.
"The entire field of film historians awaits the AFI volumes with eagerness."--Eileen Bowser, Museum of Modern Art Film Department Comments on previous volumes: "The source of last resort for finding socially valuable . . . films that received such scant attention that they seem 'lost' until discovered in the AFI Catalog."--Thomas Cripps "Endlessly absorbing as an excursion into cultural history and national memory."--Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.
Nicholas Whittaker's much-loved classic recollects the long sunny days of his childhood when, notepad in hand, jam sandwiches in the duffel bag, he happily spent his time jotting down train numbers during the Indian summer of steam and the heyday of diesel. Whittaker returns to his roots in this updated edition, casting a sceptical eye over recent developments, catching up with old acquaintances and considering the toll that half a century of ridicule and a couple of decades of privatisation have wrought upon his beloved pastime. As Andrew Martin notes in his Foreword, this is 'one of the best books ever written about rail enthusiasm'. Equally it is a poetically written memoir of growing up in a more innocent age, a hymn to British eccentricity and to the virtues of observing the world around you: 'Spotters – of trains, planes, buses or birds – are a last redoubt for something rapidly vanishing from our lives: looking outward, seeing, observing. People notice things less and less these days, while watching things more and more.' Praise for the first edition: 'An elegy: for the steam trains already vanishing when Whittaker's hobby began in 1964; for the short-lived diesel age which followed; for an era of near innocence.' Times Literary Supplement 'Whittaker writes with humour and considerable evocative power ... For anyone who will admit to having a childhood brush with this now derided hobby, Platform Souls brings it all rushing back.' Independent 'Destined to become the Fever Pitch of the sidings and embankments' Publishing News
