Book excerpt: Coffin Dust Strange Stories In the vein of Richard Matheson's Shock collections and Stephen King's Night Shift, Coffin Dust culls twenty plus of David Daniel's early short stories from the magazines where they first appeared. Varied in style and tone, these tales all possess, in the words of the late Theodore Sturgeon, "a touch of the strange." Moody, atmospheric, and sharply drawn, they present ordinary people who find themselves drawn into odd little corners of life. Praise for David Daniel Ark "...an off-beat and expertly plotted thriller!" The Boston Herald The Tuesday Man "...an absolutely first-rate political thriller.... [the book] is witty, sophisticated, fast-moving, chilling, and utterly credible. Read it." Boston Magazine "Intricately plotted and breezily spun out...smooth entertainment with acute observations." Washington Post Book World The Heaven Stone "a flavorful novel..." Publisher's Weekly (starred review) Murder at the Baseball Hall of Fame "hits a home run!" The Boston Globe The Skelly Man "Daniel brings his characters full-grown onto the page.... It is this strength of characterization, plus the grace of his prose, that sets the book apart from the many similar novels in the 'hard-boiled' school. Dennis Lehane, author of Shutter Island. Goofy Foot "...drives forward insistently...with sharply drawn characters and a narrative flow that pulls like a magnet." Bangor Daily News The Marble Kite "...a hard-boiled ride with dark poetry at its core..." L.A. Times White Rabbit "Subtle and evocative...a finely spun mystery..." Kirkus Reviews "...a dynamite suspense novel..." Dennis McNally, author of A Long Strange Trip: The Inside History of the Grateful Dead. Reunion "Daniel builds his characters with casual ease and sends them through tight spots, personal growth, and rich relationships..." Cleveland Plain Dealer Six Off 66 "...emotionally satisfying, rich in detail and human motivation." Joseph Young, author of Easter Rabbit

Book Synopsis Bad Land Pastoralism in Great Plains Fiction by : Matthew J. C. Cella
Download or read book Bad Land Pastoralism in Great Plains Fiction written by Matthew J. C. Cella and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the core of this nuanced book is the question that ecocritics have been debating for decades: what is the relationship between aesthetics and activism, between art and community? By using a pastoral lens to examine ten fictional narratives that chronicle the dialogue between human culture and nonhuman nature on the Great Plains, Matthew Cella explores literary treatments of a succession of abrupt cultural transitions from the Euroamerican conquest of the “Indian wilderness” in the nineteenth century to the Buffalo Commons phenomenon in the twentieth. By charting the shifting meaning of land use and biocultural change in the region, he posits this bad land—the arid West—as a crucible for the development of the human imagination. Each chapter deals closely with two novels that chronicle the same crisis within the Plains community. Cella highlights, for example, how Willa Cather reconciles her persistent romanticism with a growing disillusionment about the future of rural Nebraska, how Tillie Olsen and Frederick Manfred approach the tragedy of the Dust Bowl with strikingly similar visions, and how Annie Proulx and Thomas King use the return of the buffalo as the centerpiece of a revised mythology of the Plains as a palimpsest defined by layers of change and response. By illuminating these fictional quests for wholeness on the Great Plains, Cella leads us to understand the intricate interdependency of people and the places they inhabit. Cella uses the term “pastoralism” in its broadest sense to mean a mode of thinking that probes the relationship between nature and culture: a discourse concerned with human engagement—material and nonmaterial—with the nonhuman community. In all ten novels discussed in this book, pastoral experience—the encounter with the Beautiful—leads to a renewed understanding of the integral connection between human and nonhuman communities. Propelling this tradition of bad land pastoralism are an underlying faith in the beauty of wholeness that comes from inhabiting a continuously changing biocultural landscape and a recognition of the inevitability of change. The power of story and language to shape the direction of that change gives literary pastoralism the potential to support an alternative series of ideals based not on escape but on stewardship: community, continuity, and commitment.

Download or read book Purity Before Existence written by Lance Lichtengel and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their eternal struggle against all of that which they perceive to be evil, the heavens, driven by their own ideals, bestowed upon the Sacred Nyrheimian Kingdom a supernatural power, known as "the Energy of the Gods." They ordered the people of the kingdom to use the power they were given to convert the rest of the world to their own religion, Jafnaorism, a religion centred around a set of ethical principles, according to which a person possesses human rights only insofar as that they are a fully morally good person. The Nyrheimians were given a time period of three years to master the Energy of the Gods, before they are to declare war against every country that would refuse to convert to Jafnaorism. While the Jafnaorists prepare for their upcoming crusade, two seemingly ordinary schoolgirls from a faraway country also experience their own personal battles against evil in their day-to-day lives. However, by some unknown process, they, too, develop the Energy of the Gods at the climax of their conflicts with their enemies. Guided by this power, as well as their own senses of justice, Shirosakura Hakutenshi and Arumariya Angeletta continue their fights against evil, which very quickly escalate to a scale far grander than the personal struggles they have encountered thus far.
