Book excerpt: Nearly ten years since the rapture and humanity is no longer the top of the food chain. God has taken his followers to heaven and left demons to rule earth in his wake. Those left behind seek to find either redemption in the eyes of their creator or revenge against him. An amnesiac awakens amongst those who are seeking redemption. They offer to help him find out who or what he is as he discovers an unexplainable ability in his attempts to protect them. A set of brothers have an item that they believe can bring them face to face with God to make him answer for crimes against humanity. Shining through the darkness, a group of survivors has come together under the lights of the last piece of entertainment left on this world, a traveling carnival, led by a mysterious and enigmatic man who has dubbed himself “The Queen.” These stories interweave with each other on their individual journeys through post-rapture Earth before they find their way to the City of God and face down their creator.

Delivers big thrills and even bigger laughs.”—Jeff Kinney, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Diary of a Wimpy Kid With his zombie-controlling powers growing stronger, Jack Sullivan and his buddies are road-tripping toward the mysterious Tower, where they must once and for all stop Rezzoch the Ancient, Destructor of Worlds, from descending upon our dimension. But their journey is sidetracked when they are swept up by the Mallusk, an enormous centipede monster carrying the world's largest shopping mall on its back. On board, the kids discover a thriving monster society: Mallusk City! There, they encounter old allies—as well as old foes, who are ruling over Mallusk City with an iron fist. Beating these bad guys in battle is not an option, but beating them in an election is… so Jack runs for mayor of Mallusk City! At first, proving his leadership skills just means shaking monster hands, kissing monster babies, and promising to fill the water fountains with strawberry Nesquik. But when the Mallusk falls under attack, Jack must learn how to be a true leader—before it’s too late. Told in a mixture of text and black-and-white illustration, this is the perfect series for any kid who's ever dreamed of starring in their own comic book or video game.
Book Synopsis The Last Show on Earth by : Yvonne Blomer
Download or read book The Last Show on Earth written by Yvonne Blomer and published by Caitlin Press. This book was released on 2022-02-11 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unflinching and whimsical collection, Victoria's former poet laureate Yvonne Blomer explores death, disability, and the fate of our imperilled world. In The Last Show on Earth, Yvonne Blomer gathers the diverse characters and distinct moments from everyday life, its tragedies, and triumphs, and begins to imagine them in a circus as side shows and exhibitions of the unusual. In her latest collection, Blomer borrows from museum dioramas, the paintings of Robert Bateman, and the animal portraits in National Geographic to question and explore the human element in the lives and survival of other species. In poems that are at times unflinchingly dark yet playful, Blomer balances on a tightrope of grief and hope as she traces the lines from motherhood and caring for aging parents to caring for our planet and its endangered creatures--the whale, the elephant, the wolf, the polar bear--as they face ongoing environmental destruction. In The Last Show on Earth, we are all performers under the bright striped tent or packed on the circus train heading toward an unknown destination.
Book Synopsis The Earth on Show by : Ralph O'Connor
Download or read book The Earth on Show written by Ralph O'Connor and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the turn of the nineteenth century, geology—and its claims that the earth had a long and colorful prehuman history—was widely dismissedasdangerous nonsense. But just fifty years later, it was the most celebrated of Victorian sciences. Ralph O’Connor tracks the astonishing growth of geology’s prestige in Britain, exploring how a new geohistory far more alluring than the standard six days of Creation was assembled and sold to the wider Bible-reading public. Shrewd science-writers, O’Connor shows, marketed spectacular visions of past worlds, piquing the public imagination with glimpses of man-eating mammoths, talking dinosaurs, and sea-dragons spawned by Satan himself. These authors—including men of science, women, clergymen, biblical literalists, hack writers, blackmailers, and prophets—borrowed freely from the Bible, modern poetry, and the urban entertainment industry, creating new forms of literature in order to transport their readers into a vanished and alien past. In exploring the use of poetry and spectacle in the promotion of popular science, O’Connor proves that geology’s success owed much to the literary techniques of its authors. An innovative blend of the history of science, literary criticism, book history, and visual culture, The Earth on Show rethinks the relationship between science and literature in the nineteenth century.

Book Synopsis Provocation in Popular Culture by : Bim Mason
Download or read book Provocation in Popular Culture written by Bim Mason and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What role can provocation play in the process of renewal, both of individuals and of societies? Provocation in Popular Culture is an investigation into the practice of specific provocateurs and the wider nature of cultural provocation, examining, among others: Banksy Sacha Baron Cohen Leo Bassi Pussy Riot Philippe Petit Archaos. Drawing on Bim Mason’s own twenty-five year career as performer, teacher and creative director, this book explores the power negotiations involved in the relationship between provocateur and provoked, and the implications of maintaining a position on the ‘edge’. Using neuroscience as a bridge, it proposes a similarity between complexity theory and cultural theories of play and risk. Three inter-related analogies for the ‘edge’ on which these performers operate – the fulcrum, the blade and the border – reveal the shifts between structure and fluidity, and the ways in which these can combine in a single moment.

Download or read book Yokohama Threeway written by Beth Lisick and published by City Lights Books. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peering into life's cringe-worthy moments, best-selling author Beth Lisick excavates territory that most would rather ignore. Funny, odd, deeply personal, yet somehow universal, these are the kind of memories that haunt us all, the small awful moments of shame and humiliation that we'd rather forget than relive. Beth Lisick has made a career of opening her life to her readers in all of its messy, smart hilarity, but this type of story doesn't usually find its way into a memoir. With her trademark humor and sly intelligence, writing in short flashes the way these episodes tend to pop up in memory, Lisick recounts her most embarrassing moments with gusto. From a trick she played on a neighbor thirty years ago to what she accidentally blurted out at last night's dinner party, she explores the bad judgments and free-floating regrets that keep her up at night, and the result is a daring, candid and wickedly funny collection of embarrassment embraced, the triumph of humor and perspective over everyday mortification. Writer, performer and independent film actress Beth Lisick is the author of the New York Times best-selling comic memoir Everybody Into the Pool and the gonzo self-help manifesto Helping Me Help Myself. Praise for Yokohama Threeway: "The ultimate joyride for those of us who enjoy cringe-worthy embarrassment, genuine pathos, and an overdosing amount of schadenfreude."—Michael Ian Black "This book is fucking great."—Kathleen Hanna, of Bikini Kill and The Julie Ruin "A strangely touching and engaging portrait of the artist as a young screwup."—Booklist "Yokohama Threeway blends the funny and the painful into an elixir more closely resembling cough medicine than soda pop—a little bitter, made up of strange ingredients, not real pretty, but necessary if you want to get better. In the end, you are happy you took it, even if it leaves a funky aftertaste."—World Literature Today "Speaking as someone who hates everything, I love this book."—James Greer, musician & author of The Failure "Hilarious, heartbreaking, compassionate, pitch perfect, utterly original."—Joyce Maynard, author of After Her and Labor Day "A laugh-out-loud series of short, revelatory confessions propelled by curiosity and an acute desire to experience the world. It is not now and perhaps never will be quite in vogue for people to share their shames, but Lisick does it with aplomb and even exuberance."—Evan Karp, SF Weekly "Beth Lisick's new essay collection Yokohama Threeway made me laugh out loud more than anything else I have read all year, she is a master at sharing her life experiences with self-deprecating yet honest humor."—David Gutowski, Largehearted Boy "Beth Lisick, divulges the most embarrassing moments in a series of short essays dripping with wicked humor."—7x7 Magazine

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Winnipeg Free Press Top Read of 2021 The thirteenth installment of Canada's annual volume of essays showcases diverse nonfiction writing from across the country. “The exceptional essay,” writes editor Bruce Whiteman, “derives from a passionate feeling, love and anger being perhaps its upper and lower limits, coexisting with a desire for truth, and it aims for the radiance of what is.” In the 2021 edition of Best Canadian Essays, Whiteman’s selections seek truth in all the places it may be found, from walks in brambled woods and ancient cities to memories of childhoods that shape a life; to analyses of artifacts both legislative and cultural that advance equality long overdue; to reports from the field that articulate the poetry of the present, the invisibility of the poor, the social contours and consuming mental contagions of the ongoing pandemic. Drawn from leading magazines and journals published in 2020, the fifteen essays gathered here brilliantly illuminate what is.

Download or read book movingparts written by Edward Carson and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2023-02-20 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: the body / knows what / it truly / wants yet / the mind / wavers all In Edward Carson’s provocative new work, the poetic moving parts of movingparts confront and breathe new life into what’s true and what’s not in Aesop’s fable "The Fox and the Crow," as well as the shifting, often fragmentary ground between what’s said and what’s not about identity and intimacy in Sappho’s lyrics. Reflecting the moment-to-moment ways our minds think, these poems take us from a creative process of disconnection and reassembly to a sonic pacing of words arising out of their stillness on the page. A flair for syntactical compression is found throughout, balanced by a capricious yet transforming diction, what John Ashbery described as seeking to stretch “the bond between language and communication.” Calling witness to the narratives of history while pivoting their reach forward to the present, the rhythms, allusions, and resulting outcomes of Carson’s use of language expand both narrative and discovery. movingparts is brought full circle when an unexpected historical connection between Sappho and Aesop is revealed, hinting that what is true or false in the past or present of our lives can arrive at an intimacy with and illumination of more than we imagine.

And the priest is just the beginning... * "Confident with a savage streak, Panic is one of those books that really grabs your attention...tightly written, fast-paced and gruesome as hell. 4/5."
