Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Wonder and Exile in the New World, Alex Nava explores the border regions between wonder and exile, particularly in relation to the New World. It traces the preoccupation with the concept of wonder in the history of the Americas, beginning with the first European encounters, goes on to investigate later representations in the Baroque age, and ultimately enters the twentieth century with the emergence of so-called magical realism. In telling the story of wonder in the New World, Nava gives special attention to the part it played in the history of violence and exile, either as a force that supported and reinforced the Conquest or as a voice of resistance and decolonization. Focusing on the work of New World explorers, writers, and poets—and their literary descendants—Nava finds that wonder and exile have been two of the most significant metaphors within Latin American cultural, literary, and religious representations. Beginning with the period of the Conquest, especially with Cabeza de Vaca and Las Casas, continuing through the Baroque with Cervantes and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, and moving into the twentieth century with Alejo Carpentier and Miguel Ángel Asturias, Nava produces a historical study of Latin American narrative in which religious and theological perspectives figure prominently.

Book excerpt: (Author’s note: ‘Exiled’ consists of extracts from the Alpha World of the Fate’s Warriors series. It is a prequel for the Loki’s Exile series.) Loki Laufeyson has made many mistakes during his lengthy existence, but none greater than attempting to overthrow Odin, King of Asgard. Exiled for his treachery, he seeks vengeance by becoming allied with creatures who are just as ambitious and merciless as he is. Bianca Caldwell is on the cusp of living her dream when Earth is invaded. She always believed monsters, aliens and ancient demi-gods were just stories, but she discovers they are very real. She encounters Loki by sheer accident when fleeing for her life, or so it seems. Little does she know that a powerful force is steering her towards her destiny. Blackmailed by Fate and given the task of watching over a human, Loki is ill equipped to deal with the fragile, yet beautiful young woman. His desire is to rule over humanity, not to babysit one. He must keep Bianca safe from his Viltaran and Grimgorg allies, not to mention their minions, or they will both pay the ultimate price.

Book excerpt: Exile and Identity focuses on the experiences of hundreds of thousands of Polish women forcibly transported deep into the USSR as prisoners or "special settlers" after the Soviet invasion and annexation of eastern Poland in 1939. Using firsthand accounts ranging from the briefly factual to the intensely personal, Katherine R. Jolluck reconstructs the daily lives and attitudes of Polish women based on reports collected upon their amnesty and evacuation from the USSR. These moving stories provide a clear and detailed picture of the conditions in which these women were forced to live, and examine how those victimized interpreted and coped with their daily traumas.

Book excerpt: He was a very long way from home: Six long weeks cooped up in a spaceship left Jared more than ready to use his own wings to fly. But Hector was a busy planet--a place of big buildings and bigger bureaucracy. Nothing was simple or quick on this odd world. Jared had come to get his home world designated in the governmental records for that region of space. It was to be set aside for the current population and to give those of the Seven Settlements control over their own world. It had seemed easy enough--an adventure, a lark. But all the information he had received from the crew of the Athena Nike had not prepared him for the things that would happen to him once he submerged himself in the workings of a place so very foreign to his nature. Jared had known it would not be a quick trip, but his adventures on Hector were far different from anything he could possibly have imagined. Now if he could just make it back home in one piece.

Book excerpt: John Galsworthy, an English novelist and playwright, and the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1932 was born August 14, 1867 in Surrey, England, the son of a well-to-do solicitor. He had a typical childhood of that time, was sent away to public school and then went to Oxford, where he studied law and graduated in 1889. Galsworthy showed little interest in being a lawyer, and in 1892 met Joseph Conrad, with whom he developed a life-long friendship. Conrad, among other friends, encouraged Galsworthy to attempt writing. In 1897 Galsworthy had his first book of short stories published, and in 1898 when his first novel was published, Conrad introduced Galsworthy to several important and influential literary men, including Ford Madox Ford and Edward Garnett, the latter having a strong influence on Galworthy, encouraging and editing his writings. In 1906 Galsworthy published the first novel in his series, The Forsyte Saga. This novel placed Galsworthy among the pre-eminent novelists of his day. However, it was his plays that brought him public recognition, Galsworthy continued writing steadily, gaining more and more fame and celebrity. John Galsworthy died on January 31, 1933.

Book excerpt: Space... long considered the final frontier to the vast majority of people on Earth. However, for the powers that be running the United Nations, it represented something totally different—an escape. An escape from an environment ravaged by centuries of war, greed, over-population and hyper-industrialization—now having been altered into a decaying brown globe of pestilence and death. No one understood this looming threat more than Dr. Myron Bethea, a renowned geologist working for the UN. Through his exhaustive research, Bethea discovered that our beloved home-world was on its way to becoming like the rest of its neighbors in the solar system. In essence, it was only a matter of time until the planet itself was uninhabitable. His ill-advised attempt to shed light on the severity of their situation transformed him into persona non grata with the government, condemning him to the worst penalty known to man: EXILE. Doomed to die slowly amid a plethora of society's worst in a freightage silo, Bethea and others awaken to discover that they have landed on a strange new world—offering them an uncanny reminder of what the Earth used to look like. Unfortunately for them, looks can be deceiving as their newfound freedom just may come at a price none were willing to pay. The harsh reality being that in space... whistles don't blow.

Book excerpt: A shackled Earth, ruled by an unstoppable tyrant An exiled son, and a one-way trip across the galaxy A perfect world, their last hope for survival Vice Admiral Isaac Gallant is the heir apparent to the First Admiral, the dictator of the Confederacy of Humanity. Unwilling to let his mother’s tyranny stand, he joins the rebellion and leads his ships into war against the might of his own nation. Betrayal and failure, however, see Isaac Gallant and his allies captured. Rather than execute her only son, the First Admiral instead decides to exile them, flinging four million dissidents and rebels through a one-shot wormhole to the other end of the galaxy. There, Isaac finds himself forced to keep order and peace as they seek out a new home without becoming the very dictator he fought against—and when that new home turns out to be too perfect to be true, he and his fellow exiles must decide how hard they are prepared to fight for paradise…against the very people who built it.

Book excerpt: Our era is profoundly marked by the phenomenon of exile and it is has become increasingly urgent to rethink the concept of exile and our stance towards it. This renewed reflection on the problem of exile brings to the fore a number of questions regarding the traditionally negative connotation of exile. Is there not another way to understand the condition of exile? Permeated with references to the 'stranger', the 'other' and 'exteriority', the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas signifies a positive understanding of exile. This original and compelling book distills from Levinas's philosophy a wisdom of exile, for the first time shedding a positive light on the condition of exile itself. Abi Doukhan argues that Levinas's philosophy can be understood as a comprehensive philosophy of exile, from his ethics to his thoughts on society, love, knowledge, spirituality and art, thereby presenting a comprehensive view of the philosophy of Levinas himself as well as a renewed understanding of the wealth and contribution of exile to a given society.
