Download or read book Strange Angel written by George Pendle and published by HMH. This book was released on 2006-02-06 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a CBS All Access series: “A riveting tale of rocketry, the occult, and boom-and-bust 1920s and 1930s Los Angeles” (Booklist). The Los Angeles Times headline screamed: ROCKET SCIENTIST KILLED IN PASADENA EXPLOSION. The man known as Jack Parsons, a maverick rocketeer who helped transform a derided sci-fi plotline into actuality, was at first mourned as a scientific prodigy. But reporters soon uncovered a more shocking story: Parsons had been a devotee of the city’s occult scene. Fueled by childhood dreams of space flight, Parsons was a leader of the motley band of enthusiastic young men who founded the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a cornerstone of the American space program. But Parsons’s wild imagination also led him into a world of incantations and orgiastic rituals—if he could make rocketry a reality, why not black magic? George Pendle re-creates the world of John Parsons in this dazzling portrait of prewar superstition, cold war paranoia, and futuristic possibility. Peopled with such formidable real-life figures as Howard Hughes, Aleister Crowley, L. Ron Hubbard, and Robert Heinlein, Strange Angel explores the unruly consequences of genius. The basis for a new miniseries created by Mark Heyman and produced by Ridley Scott, this biography “vividly tells the story of a mysterious and forgotten man who embodied the contradictions of his time . . . when science fiction crashed into science fact. . . . [It] would make a compelling work of fiction if it weren’t so astonishingly true” (Publishers Weekly).

Book excerpt: Only a few months after fighter pilot Verna Starr, aka Rocket Babe, led DSSF to victory on Mars, all alien abductions ceased. The first interplanetary strike by humans had been almost flawless and provided a window of opportunity for DSSF to gain strength, but soon it looked as though their victory would be short lived. A small number of the Greys survived and while no longer a threat to Earth on their own, their allies, an ancient race believed to be the decendents of fallen angels known as the Nephilim, would soon prove a much greater threat to mankind. Enraged by the attack, the Nephilim were rapidly moving to avenge the Greys. Their leader, Anakim, now bore a deep seeded hatred for all humans and DSSF but above all he had an overwhelming desire to possess and punish the only woman that had ever dared to defy him. In retaliation he meant to bring a firestorm upon Earth like mankind had never seen before. Now in command of fighter squadron SF-1, Jolly Rogers, Rocket Babe and her pilots race to intercept Anakim before he reaches Earth. But if the Nephilim leader can defeat DSSF he will own the entire solar system and rule every life form, including a captured Rocket Babe who would be forced to watch the destruction of everything and everyone she loves as his slave.
Book Synopsis Gravity's Rainbow, Domination, and Freedom by : Luc Herman
Download or read book Gravity's Rainbow, Domination, and Freedom written by Luc Herman and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When published in 1973, Gravity’s Rainbow expanded our sense of what the novel could be. Pynchon’s extensive references to modern science, history, and culture challenged any reader, while his prose bent the rules for narrative art and his satirical practices taunted U.S. obscenity and pornography statutes. His writing thus enacts freedom even as the book’s great theme is domination: humanity’s diminished “chances for freedom” in a global military-industrial system birthed and set on its feet in World War II. Its symbol: the V-2 rocket. “Gravity’s Rainbow,” Domination, and Freedom broadly situates Pynchon’s novel in “long sixties” history, revealing a fiction deeply of and about its time. Herman and Weisenburger put the novel’s abiding questions about freedom in context with sixties struggles against war, restricted speech rights, ethno-racial oppression, environmental degradation, and subtle new means of social and psychological control. They show the text’s close indebtedness to critiques of domination by key postwar thinkers such as Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse, and Hannah Arendt. They detail equally powerful ways that sixties countercultural practices—free-speech resistance played out in courts, campuses, city streets, and raucously satirical underground presswork—provide a clearer bearing on Pynchon’s own satirical practices and their implicit criticisms. If the System has jacketed humanity in a total domination, may not a solitary individual still assert freedom? Or has the System captured all—even supposedly immune elites—in an irremediable dominion? Reading Pynchon’s main characters and storylines, this study realizes a darker Gravity’s Rainbow than critics have been willing to see.

Download or read book Eddie Bosco written by Ernie Delpero and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-05-31 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eddie Bosco is an enthralling story that has something for everyone. Eddie Bosco went to Paris, France, at the age of eighteen years old on his own. His intention was to stay maybe two weeks or until his money ran out. He bought a return ticket back to the States so he could return home when he had to. However, Eddie Bosco in fact stayed in France for four and a half years. The teenager got involved in a situation that almost overnight developed into an action-filled adventure. Although the book is fictional, it is inspired by actual events. The story has something for everyone, including ongoing friendships, loyalty, romance, love, drama, action, sex, and violence. At the age of eighteen years old, Eddie Bosco was a kept young man, connected with some good financial coconspirators, teamed up with his new honorably discharged veteran friends, and created his own army. Then he took on the most feared crime gang in all of France. Eddie Bosco is truly a must-read riveting story for everyone's enjoyment. However, the purpose of the story is to present the facts so that the reader can form their own opinions and own conclusions as to why Eddie Bosco did what he did. Read less
