Download or read book I Hold a Wolf by the Ears written by Laura van den Berg and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2020-07-28 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE OF TIME'S 10 BEST FICTION BOOKS OF 2020. Longlisted for the Joyce Carol Oates Prize. Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR, Bustle, Good Housekeeping, the New York Public Library, Library Journal, Lit Hub, Electric Literature, and Tor.com "As enchanting as fairy tales, as mysterious as dreams, these exquisitely composed fictions are as urgent and original as any being written today.” —Sigrid Nunez, author of The Friend, winner of the 2018 National Book Award for Fiction An urgent and unsettling collection of women on the verge from Laura van den Berg, author of The Third Hotel I Hold a Wolf by the Ears, Laura van den Berg’s first story collection since her prizewinning book The Isle of Youth, draws readers into a world of wholly original, sideways ghost stories that linger in the mouth and the mind. Both timeless and urgent, these eleven stories confront misogyny, violence, and the impossible economics of America with van den Berg’s trademark spiky humor and surreal eye. Moving from the peculiarities of Florida to liminal spaces of travel in Mexico City, Sicily, and Iceland, I Hold a Wolf by the Ears is uncannily attuned to our current moment, and to the fears we reveal to no one but ourselves. In “Lizards,” a man mutes his wife’s anxieties by giving her a LaCroix-like seltzer laced with sedatives. In the title story, a woman poses as her more successful sister during a botched Italian holiday, a choice that brings about strange and destructive consequences, while in “Karolina,” a woman discovers her prickly ex-sister-in-law in the aftermath of an earthquake and is forced to face the truth about her violent brother. I Hold a Wolf by the Ears presents a collection of women on the verge, trying to grasp what’s left of life: grieving, divorced, and hyperaware, searching, vulnerable, and unhinged, they exist in a world that deviates from our own only when you look too closely. With remarkable control and transcendent talent, van den Berg dissolves, in the words of the narrator of “Slumberland,” “that border between magic and annihilation,” and further establishes herself as a defining fiction writer of our time.

Fiction. Short Stories. These moribund miniatures take the boundary between life and death as their playground, capturing the triviality and quotidian horror of being human. "A darkly funny, wry, vivid set of poetic texts. This is doing the work poetry needs to be doing, it's about language itself as much as it's about the absurdity of our own physical lives and non-lives."--SJ Fowler

Download or read book The Green Monk written by Marcus Slease and published by Boiler House Press. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green Monk was written between London, Madrid, and Krakow, and engages thrillingly with various surrealist visions of artists and poets, including Leonora Carrington, Salvador Dali, Federico García Lorca, James Tate, and Chika Sagawa. It concerns, variously, queer erotics, animism & magic, food, death & sublime nature, fairy tales & alchemy, & the wonders of everyday life in Madrid. It is simultaneously contemporary and ancient, built on visual images and techniques of juxtaposition and collage, accompanied by entertainingly absurd narratives. These poems sit between worlds and take the reader on shamanistic journeys, healings, and transformations, through a language of migration and immigration, across various physical and imaginary, spatial and temporal, fields.

Book excerpt: Silliness takes center stage in this laugh-out-loud book from the creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar?--now available as a board book! Yes, there’s something strange, something funny and even downright preposterous on every page of this book. But it’s not a mistake – it’s nonsense! Nonsense lies at the heart of many beloved nursery rhymes. Children readily accept odd statements like “the cow jumped over the moon” and “the dish ran away with the spoon.” This fanciful bending of reality is also basic to surrealism. In this book, nonsense and surrealism combine to spark creativity and imagination. What’s true? What’s impossible? What’s absolutely absurd? From Eric Carle, creator of the classic, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, comes a book to make children laugh and think, preparing them for a lifetime of loving both words and art. Praise for The Nonsense Show A TIME Magazine Top 10 Children's Book of 2015! * "Carle creates fun and laughter in this homage to the surrealist artist René Magritte. [P]erfect for storytimes and silly times all round. Carle hits it out of the nonsense park!"–Booklist, starred review * "A sure hit as a read-aloud and a definite purchase for picture book collections."–School Library Journal, starred review * "A picture book made to incite pleasure and joy."–Kirkus Reviews, starred review * "[The Nonsense Show], with its cleanly designed white pages, makes the unexpected elements of the imagery stand out and prompts questions and wonder."–Horn Book, starred review

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Surrealism written by Keith Aspley and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite surrealism's celebration of the subconscious and eschewal of reason, the movement was nevertheless concerned with definitions. Andre Breton included a dictionary-style entry for surrealisme in his 1924 Manifeste du surrealisme and later explored juxtapositions of the absurd and the mundane in the 1938 Dictionnaire abrege du surrealisme. To the mountain of literature that seeks to organize the far-reaching intellectual movement, Aspley (honorary fellow, Univ. of Edinburgh) adds this handy volume that organizes the breadth of surrealism into concise entries on artists, writers, artworks, and themes. A chronology highlights events that sparked the surrealist imagination, activities of formal surrealist groups, and exhibitions. An introductory essay and extensive bibliography are included. One of the few English-language reference sources about surrealism published in the last decade, Aspley's dictionary is useful for quick access to key terms and biographies. For a book devoted to a movement characterized by arresting visual imagery, the lack of illustrations is annoying. Even Rene Passeron's 1978 Phaidon Encyclopedia of Surrealism (CH, May'79) reprints artworks in color. For a richly illustrated and comprehensive history, see Gerard Durozi's History of the Surrealist Movement (CH, Nov'02, 40-1316). Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates through graduate students. Lower-division Undergraduates; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students. Reviewed by A. H. Simmons.

Download or read book No Nonsense written by Victionary and published by . This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life's ironies are easier to take in with a sugar coating. This coating entertains, and acts as a remedy for the bitter truth while you die laughing. Brimming with cheerful colours, juxtaposed details and quirky characters, illustrations of dark humour weave together a twisted yet oddly familiar narrative we can all empathise with. Off the Wall amasses 30 some artists whose works are as somber as they are hilarious. Look at how satirical ideas play out in imagery to voice societal concerns, reflect on human nature or simply as a candid expression of the artist's peculiar creative universe. Through short interviews and a carefully edited showcase, the book takes readers to explore artists' enigmatic minds as they give insight into how they walk the fine line between being funny and unsettling.

Book excerpt: It's hard to describe a book that doesn't fit anywhere... a book that uncovers the most bizarre human desires and absurd aspects of our lives. In So Absurd It Must Be True, acclaimed Blåsbo Gatan satirist VICTORIA RAY offers her absolutely odd vision on the present situation in the world, relationships, and human emotions. The book is a collection of dark humor and surreal parodies, where the mix of satire and irony unveils the truth about our laughable existence called 'life'. But don't worry, Ray is here to help you make sense of it all. Each story exposes the tragedy of being an adult, the man-woman game, the kaleidoscope of human relationships, and the limitations of our sexual fantasies. Among the topics covered: 1) why Santa Claus had forgotten that you exist; 2) neighbors and how to deal with them - one by one; 3) Russian gang leader vs American CIA agent; 4) why Leo Tolstoy killed Anna Karenina; 5) cults, dreams and deaths; 6) the walls of wisdom in lifts; 7) famous five are hiding in Cuba... go figure! 8) enemies and their tears; 9) what happened in Kyrgyzstan with Jesus? 10) where to find a clue for NO CLUE? 11) new AI generation; 12) fairy tales and bored Queens; 13) ghosts and X files. Anyone who had ever spent time with another human being or, at least, been born... will love this collection. The book contains profanity, fun or gross erotica, and elements of violence. Only for adults. Genre: surreal humor, satire, parody, horror, dark comedy, absurdist fiction, comic strips.
