The Teller Of Small Fortunes [Bok / Pocket]

John Grisham is known worldwide for his bestselling novels, but it&rsquo;s his real-life passion for justice that led to his work with Jim McCloskey of Centurion Ministries, the first organization dedicated to exonerating innocent people who have been wrongly convicted. Together they offer an inside look at the many injustices in our criminal justice system. A fundamental principle of our legal system is a presumption of innocence, but once someone has been found guilty, there is very little room to prove doubt. These ten true stories shed light on Americans who were innocent but found guilty and forced to sacrifice friends, families, and decades of their lives to prison while the guilty parties remained free. In each of the stories, John Grisham and Jim McCloskey recount the dramatic hard-fought battles for exoneration. They take a close look at what leads to wrongful convictions in the first place and the racism, misconduct, flawed testimony, and corruption in the court system that can make them so hard to reverse. Impeccably researched and told with page-turning suspense as only John Grisham can deliver, Framed is the story of winning freedom when the battle already seems lost and the deck is stacked against you.

<b>From one of the most iconic actors in the history of film, an astonishingly revelatory account of a creative life in full</b><br/><br/>To the wider world, Al Pacino exploded onto the scene like a supernova. He landed his first leading role, in <i>The Panic in Needle Park</i>, in 1971, and by 1975, he had starred in four movies-<i>The Godfather</i> and <i>The Godfather Part II</i>, <i>Serpico</i>, and <i>Dog Day Afternoon</i>-that were not just successes but landmarks in the history of film. Those performances became legendary and changed his life forever. Not since Marlon Brando and James Dean in the late 1950s had an actor landed in the culture with such force.<br/><br/>But Pacino was in his mid thirties by then, and had already lived several lives. A fixture of avant-garde theater in New York, he had led a bohemian existence, working odd jobs to support his craft. He was raised by a fiercely loving but mentally unwell mother and her parents after his father left them when he was young, but in a real sense he was raised by the streets of the South Bronx, and by the troop of buccaneering young friends he ran with, whose spirits never left him. After a teacher recognized his acting promise and pushed him toward New York's fabled High School of Performing Arts, the die was cast. In good times and bad, in poverty and in wealth and in poverty again, through pain and joy, acting was his lifeline, its community his tribe.<br/><br/><i>Sonny Boy</i> is the memoir of a man who has nothing left to fear and nothing left to hide. All the great roles, the essential collaborations, and the important relationships are given their full due, as is the vexed marriage between creativity and commerce at the highest levels. The book's golden thread, however, is the spirit of love and purpose. Love can fail you, and you can be defeated in your ambitions-the same lights that shine bright can also dim. But Al Pacino was lucky enough to fall deeply in love with a craft before he had the foggiest idea of any of its earthly rewards, and he never fell out of love. That has made all the difference.<br/><br/>_________________________________________________________________________<br/><br/><b>Praise for Al Pacino:</b><br/><br/>'Al Pacino is magical' <b>Martin Scorsese</b><br/><br/>'A legend' <b>Francis Ford Coppola</b><br/><br/>'So unique and special' <b>Robert De Niro</b><br/><br/>'A singular, special talent, whose work stands the test of time' <b>Robin Williams</b><br/><br/>'A wicked sense of humour' <b>Oliver Stone</b><br/><br/>'Charming, hilarious, a nonstop talker. There is an aspect of him that is like a lost orphan, like this kind of crazy idiot savant' <b>Diane Keaton</b><br/><br/>'As Michael in The Godfather, Pacino was everything I wanted that character to be on screen. I couldn't believe it. It was, in my eyes, a perfect performance, a work of art' <b>Mario Puzo, author of <i>The Godfather </i></b><br/><br/>'Comedic, talented, and certifiably insane' <b>Johnny Depp</b><br/><br/>'Al is money, the man in charge, making it happen. I got to act with Al Pacino and it was worth more to me than anything' <b>Samuel L Jackson</b><br/><br/>'A marvellous actor and man' <b>Sean Connery</b><br/><br/>'The depth of Al Pacino's artistry is only more overwhelmed by the generosity of his spirit and his warmth.
