Book Synopsis Lonely Satellite by : Morgan Richter
Download or read book Lonely Satellite written by Morgan Richter and published by . This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1984, a global nuclear catastrophe almost destroyed the world. Thirty years later, American society struggles to rebuild in the face of widespread fear, sickness and paranoia, as the chasm between the haves and the have-nots continues to grow. While fleeing from a gang of marauders, Laurie Sparks, a beautiful young monk with an appetite for the good life and a knack for finding trouble, seeks refuge within a sinister subterranean church and inadvertently exposes the dangerous secrets of his past. Laurie's adventures take him from desert wastelands to the decaying ruins of once-great cities, from seedy strip clubs and casinos to glamorous yachts on the Pacific and luxurious Park Avenue penthouses. In between nursing a whopping crush on his handsome traveling companion, Jonathan, and dodging the attentions of lechers, miscreants and murderers, Laurie yearns for clean sheets and room service and dreams of becoming the first television star of the post-apocalyptic age. An alternate-timeline reimagining of Morgan Richter's award-winning novel BIAS CUT, LONELY SATELLITE is a story about how hope may be found in the middle of desolation, how allies pop up in the unlikeliest of places, and how the apocalypse is easier to face with liberal doses of champagne and frequent bubble baths.

Download or read book Inferno written by Charles Bowden and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Bowden has been an outspoken advocate for the desert Southwest since the 1970s. Recently his activism helped persuade the U.S. government to create the Sonoran Desert National Monument in southern Arizona. But in working for environmental preservation, Bowden refuses to be one who “outline[s] something straightforward, a manifesto with clear rules and a set of plans for others to follow.” In this deeply personal book, he brings the Sonoran Desert alive, not as a place where well-meaning people can go to enjoy “nature,” but as a raw reality that defies bureaucratic and even literary attempts to define it, that can only be experienced through the senses. Inferno burns with Charles Bowden's passion for the desert he calls home. “I want to eat the dirt and lick the rock. Or leave the shade for the sun and feel the burning. I know I don't belong here. But this is the only place I belong,” he says. His vivid descriptions, complemented by Michael Berman's acutely observed photographs of the Sonoran Desert, make readers feel the heat and smell the dryness, see the colors in earth and sky, and hear the singing of dry bones across the parched ground. Written as “an antibiotic” during the time Bowden was lobbying the government to create the Sonoran Desert National Monument, Inferno repudiates both the propaganda and the lyricism of contemporary nature writing. Instead, it persuades us that “we need these places not to remember our better selves or our natural self or our spiritual self. We need these places to taste what we fear and devour what we are. We need these places to be animals because unless we are animals we are nothing at all. That is the price of being a civilized dude.”
Book Synopsis Crooked Little Heart by : Anne Lamott
Download or read book Crooked Little Heart written by Anne Lamott and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the same brilliant combination of humor and warmth that marked Operating Instructions and Bird by Bird, her two bestselling works of nonfiction, Anne Lamott now gives us an exuberant richly absorbing portrait of a family for whom the joys and sorrows of everyday life are magnified under the glare of the unexpected. The Fergusons make their home in a small California town where life is supposed to resemble paradise, but for thirteen-year-old Rosie (last seen in Lamott's beloved novel Rosie), reality is a bit harsher. Her mother, a recovering alcoholic, is still beset by grief over the early death of her first husband. Rosie's stepfather is a struggling writer plagued by doubts and hilarious paranoia. And Rosie, aching in the bloom of young womanhood and obsessed with tournament tennis, finds that her athletic gifts, initially a source of triumph, now place her in peril, as a shadowy man who stalks her from the bleachers seems to be developing an obsession of his own. Written with enormous emotional honesty, inhabited by superbly realized characters, riotously funny and wonderfully suspenseful, Crooked Little Heart is Anne Lamott writing at the height of her considerable powers.

Book excerpt: ...So Case tried to explain how at one time he was just an ordinary guy, a sane sensible young man, courtesy-trained and skilled in the information-engineering ways of the infoplace; how he had found himself privateering dangerous waters, virtual shipping straits, when the times underwent a sudden sea change; how he was arrested by mercenaries in superlatex gloves; how he was subjected to a super-high-pressure sales assault by a person of non-specific gender; how he became an item in a virtual wage-slave auction, otherwise known as an Alternative Deployment Market; how he was recruited by real corporate headhunters, paid in temptation money by free-enterprise totalitarians, to legitimate illegitimate businesses in the virtual interests of a rational marketplace, social order and restructuration, in the national interest, of course, not to mention administrative solvency; how he had been counter-shanghaied by his previous employer, a home-baked incarnation of the philosophies of Frederic Nietzsche, Herbert Spencer, and Michel Foucault; how he was compelled to work under extortion, torture, language that violated all the old federal govt. guidelines, at a slashed salary, in an unregulated and unloving work environment, in a highly predatory market in a "state of transition," not an unusual terminal contradiction in journalistic terms; how he settled his complaint against his former previous/subsequent employer way out of court, and was non-compensated, let alone with interest, for loss of back salary and family values; how he plotted revenge against the other side of the equation: if y ='d an employee designated S Cas in a case-sensitive four-letter code, then put him on the pension plan, or if not, then fÑ him, fÑ him good!!, downsize him once and for all, simple as pie, the bottom line; how he couldn't tell the difference any longer between the advertised effects of prescription and subscription drugs; whatever; how he was haunted by unnamed names and virtual faces, sometimes his own, sometimes those of some Other.
Book Synopsis Pissing in a River by : Lorrie Sprecher
Download or read book Pissing in a River written by Lorrie Sprecher and published by The Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2014-05-26 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An honest and genuine DIY punk-rock lesbian love story.” —Kirkus Reviews Amanda moves to London with nothing but her guitar and her collection of punk music as the soundtrack to her every move. With the company of a few friendly voices in her head, she looks for—and finds—a best friend and new lover. She forms a band, Lesbian Raincoat, and completely rewrites the story of her life. In this irreverently funny yet profound novel, Amanda risks deportation, recalls the fervor of AIDS activism in the United States, connects to the class struggle of punk, and finds redemption in love. But she also must confront her own mental illness, her lover’s rape, and the violence of post-9/11 politics. Pissing in a River captures the glee and turbulence of surviving the cacophony of modern life. “A love letter to the obsessions that captivated an outcast generation: punk, politics, passion, and provocation.” —Maria Raha, author of Cinderella’s Big Score: Women of the Punk and Indie Underground
