Book excerpt: ‘I absolutely devoured Devour. Adept, assured, and artistically diverse, this anthology has something for everyone.’ —Jodi McAlister, Senior Lecturer in Writing and Literature at Deakin University and author of the Valentine and Marry Me, Juliet series Devour is an engrossing selection of longer form short stories, all of which were recently submitted as part of an Honours or Master’s thesis within Deakin University's School of Communication and Creative Arts (SCCA). Although uniquely inspired and conceived independently from one another, each of the four stories are tethered by an underlying premise – a mysterious force that envelopes, infiltrates, infects and destroys... *** Unspeakable loss awakens a hunger within Alba that no manner of sustenance can sate. As she moves into womanhood, she comes to question the ties that bind, and in her search for meaning, asks the most important question of all: What comes after nothing? Three degrees of separation, and the Swarm descended. When civilisation is in ruins, how can we ensure the certainty of our survival? As humanity struggles and big corporations close in, only one thing is certain: Everything is connected. When the full moon rises, shadows of the past tangle with whispers of the unknown, weaving together a hauntingly beautiful narrative that transcends time and space. A bushfire rages in the Ashlands, threatening the lives of many. Only the hearthbloods can arrest the flames, but their burden is one complicated by the sceptical rhetoric of the Steel Church who bleed the earth dry in the name of industry.

All but one of its crew is killed by the massive serpentine horror that rises from the sea. Now the creature knows the taste of human prey. And it wants more… Responding to a distress signal, fishing-boat captain Brian Hawkins arrives in time to save the ship's last survivor. But the nightmare is just beginning. A casino cruise ship carrying high-stakes passengers--and a top-secret cargo--becomes the creature's next target. Desperate but determined, Hawkins goes after the biggest catch of the century. But there's something he didn't count on: There's more than one…

Download or read book Devour the Land written by Makeda Best and published by Harvard Art Museums. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the impacts of militarism on the American landscape, through the lens of art, environmental studies, and politics Devour the Land considers how contemporary photographers have responded to the US military's impact on the domestic environment since the 1970s, a dynamic period for environmental activism as well as for photography. This catalogue presents a lively range of voices at the intersection of art, environmentalism, militarism, photography, and politics. Alongside interviews with prominent contemporary artists working in the landscape photography tradition, the images speak to photographers' varied motivations, personal experiences, and artistic approaches. The result is a surprising picture of the ways violence and warfare surround us. Although most modern combat has taken place abroad, the US domestic landscape bears the footprint of armed conflict--much of the environmental damage we live with today was caused by our own military and the expansive network of industries supporting its work. Designed to evoke a field book and to nod toward ephemera produced by earlier artists and activists, the catalogue features works by dozens of photographers, including Ansel Adams, Robert Adams, Dorothy Marder, Alex Webb, Terry Evans, and many more.
Book Synopsis Strangers Devour the Land by : Boyce Richardson
Download or read book Strangers Devour the Land written by Boyce Richardson and published by Chelsea Green Publishing Company. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1974, Strangers Devour the Land is recognized as the magnum opus among the numerous books, articles, and films produced by Boyce Richardson over two decades on the subject of indigenous people. Its subject, the long struggle of the Crees of James Bay in northern Quebec--a hunting and trapping people--to defend the territories they have occupied since time immemorial, came to international attention in 1972 when they tried by legal action to stop the immense hydro-electric project the provincial government was proposing to build around them. The Crees argued that the integrity of their vast wilderness was essential to their way of life, but the authorities dismissed such claims out of hand. Richardson, who sat through many months of the trial, mingles the scientific and Cree testimony given in court with his own interviews of Cree hunters, and experiences in gathering information and shooting films, to produce a classic tale of cultures in collision. In a new preface, he reveals that the Crees--now receiving immense sums of money as compensation for the loss of their lands--appear to be doing well, and to be in the process of joining modern, technological culture, while retaining the spiritual base of their traditional lives. Meanwhile, Hydro-Quebec continues to eye additional rivers on the Cree's lands for new dams.

This book was released on 2015-09-30 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ñI tell you, God could care less about the poor. Tell me, why must we live here like this? What have we done to deserve this? YouÍre so good and yet you suffer so much,î a young boy tells his mother in Tomàs RiveraÍs classic novel about the migrant worker experience. Outside the chicken coop that is their home, his father wails in pain from the unbearable cramps brought on by sunstroke after working in the hot fields. The young boy canÍt understand his parentsÍ faith in a god that would impose such horrible suffering, poverty and injustice on innocent people. Adapted into the award-winning film and the earth did not swallow him and recipient of the first award for Chicano literature, the Premio Quinto Sol, in 1970, RiveraÍs masterpiece recounts the experiences of a Mexican-American community through the eyes of a young boy. Forced to leave their home in search of work, the migrants are exploited by farmers, shopkeepers, even other Mexican Americans, and the boy must forge his identity in the face of exploitation, death and disease, constant moving and conflicts with school officials. In this new edition of a powerful novel comprised of short vignettes, Rivera writes hauntingly about alienation, love and betrayal, man and nature, death and resurrection and the search for community.
