Download or read book Rethinking Camelot written by Noam Chomsky and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2015-03-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethinking Camelot is a thorough analysis of John F. Kennedy's role in the U/S. invasion of Vietnam and a probing reflection on the elite political culture that allowed and encouraged the Cold War. In it, Chomsky dismisses effort to resurrect Camelot—an attractive American myth portraying JFK as a shining knight promising peace, fooled only by assassins bent on stopping this lone hero who wold have unilaterally withdraws from Vietnam had he lived.

Book Synopsis The Useless Servants by : Rolando Hinojosa
Download or read book The Useless Servants written by Rolando Hinojosa and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Useless Servants, award-winning author Rolando Hinojosa captures the obscenity and pointlessness of war in the pages of a Korean War journal written by his fictional everyman, Rafe Buenrostro. Drawing from his own experiences, Hinojosa probes the mind of this Texas country boy who suddenly finds himself in an unknown country fighting in an undeclared war for an unknown reason. Meeting and befriending an unending stream of people who are gone as suddenly as they appear, Rafe alternately fears for his life and is bored to death. Dehumanized by the horrors that surround him, Rafe latches onto the one thing that offers hope for survival: his diary. He records his observations laconically and without emotion in a routine geared to survival and to becoming more effective in the performance of his grisly duty as an artilleryman. Hinojosa is successful in building suspense and irony as much by what is unsaid, unrecorded in the diary, as by what is expressed. In The Useless Servants, Hinojosa departs from his usual genre, the generational novels that chronicle the human comedy in an imaginary region on the Texas-Mexico border. He sets aside the usual theme of inter-ethnic and interpersonal conflict to confront a painful chapter in his own life, placing Rafe Buenrostro, one of his alter egos, in a far more serious drama lived on the edge of sanity on the frontier between physical survival and spiritual destruction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maggie Stiefvater’s The Raven Cycle meets Makoto Shinkai’s Your Name in this story about a girl who must save the boy she loves from a fate that has already happened. Soon-to-be high school graduate Dante is special. He can rewind time and sense impending rips in the universe, and he uses his powers to help the extra-dimensional creatures (XDs) that fall from these rips before they’re caught by the notorious Bouvard family. But two months later, Dante is dead. Mei June mourns him as she braces herself for a summer of working in her family’s shop before heading to college. She should be busy with her father’s impossible standards, a mentally ailing grandmother, and a future to prepare for… But it’s hard to move on when your dead boyfriend keeps texting you. With no answers and only a vague understanding of Dante’s duties, Mei June tries to find a way to help the XDs—and maybe save Dante. Split in two narratives told two months apart, THREADS FROM THE FUTURE is a time-bending story of love, loss, and the dangerous power of hope.
Download or read book Cold Creek written by Jay Nelson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once each summer a morning breaks that tastes of fall. Despite a vault of unrelieved blue that promises equally unrelieved heat by late afternoon, some patch of Canadian tundra has airmailed southward a precursor of the coming season, full of sensory contradictions, like a good red wine. Tomorrow the Gulf will reassert itself, drowning the message from the cooling North, but for one morning the promise hangs there, summoning ragged, maddening memory-snippets and the bewilderment appropriate to falsely anticipating what is irretrievably past. Something about the harkening wind stitches a loop in time calling forth a history hindsight annually edits, as the forces that inform the authorship of memories work their disclosures and distortions. When fall really arrives, it will bring to our semitropical savannah, if not a genuine chill, at least welcome relief from summer's stunning heat, and the ordinary experiences of three months' time: school clothes to buy, schedules to keep, leaves to rake, all burdened with the wet colorless stretches National Geographic never features. It will bring, too, the evidence that local heroes and sweethearts belong to a new generation, and that what once seemed unforgettable has been forgotten. For these young people, Stanley Roger Simmons is a plaque on the wall at the high school; Jefferson Sands Mc Callister, a face on a football trading card; Charles Pendleton Drennan, Jr., a young trial lawyer just beginning to make a name for himself. Few of them ever heard of Mark Jansen or Candy Atchison. If they are unusually curious, they may be able to attach faces to these names by poring over old newspaper clippings and some of the memorabilia in the school library, but they can do no more. The faces and the names lie on the pages, and the story they tell is strange and sad, but sooner or later the young readers say to themselves that it was a long time ago, when things were really weird, and they go about the human business of cropping their own memories from the profusion of detail that is everyday life. Someday-- perhaps even now--some few, who by inclination or training tune themselves to the contrapuntal melody of the world, will recognize a summer morning as a false autumn, and taste its once-and future character. But that is all. Only for me, and for a few others whose victories and triumphs, whose clumsy acts and blind omissions appear on or just behind those pages, does that bright annual harbinger make the dead walk and fists clench helpless again, as if that fall lived in time as truly as the crisp taste of its revenant rests a while in the backs of our throats before the rest of summer bums it gone again. One such day arrived in August 1970, when I was sitting at my desk in the room I was to occupy my senior year in college. I had returned to school early, by special permission, to get a head start on my honors thesis. Before that day was done, I had put away forever my notes for that project and begun another, on which I wrote steadily for most of the year. The result of those labors was the document that follows. In the end, my thesis advisor accepted it in lieu of my original project--a gesture for which I was deeply grateful, as it enabled me to graduate with my class. He seemed to understand my need to write it, and write it then, not later. In a sense, he said, I had delivered what I promised: a work of history, written from original sources. And he invited me to consider the writer's dilemma, shared by all who try to capture the truth: when the sources are fresh, so are the passions that warp judgment; when time brings perspective, the materials have frozen into shapes that, like photographs, show only one side, and hoard their secrets always. Another such day arrived today, and, as I have done so many times before, I took the document from my drawer again and began to read.

Download or read book Choosing War written by Fredrik Logevall and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In one of the most detailed and powerfully argued books published on American intervention in Vietnam, Fredrik Logevall examines the last great unanswered question on the war: Could the tragedy have been averted? His answer: a resounding yes. Challenging the prevailing myth that the outbreak of large-scale fighting in 1965 was essentially unavoidable, Choosing War argues that the Vietnam War was unnecessary, not merely in hindsight but in the context of its time. Why, then, did major war break out? Logevall shows it was partly because of the timidity of the key opponents of U.S. involvement, and partly because of the staunch opposition of the Kennedy and Johnson administrations to early negotiations. His superlative account shows that U.S. officials chose war over disengagement despite deep doubts about the war's prospects and about Vietnam's importance to U.S. security and over the opposition of important voices in the Congress, in the press, and in the world community. They did so because of concerns about credibility—not so much America's or the Democratic party's credibility, but their own personal credibility. Based on six years of painstaking research, this book is the first to place American policymaking on Vietnam in 1963-65 in its wider international context using multiarchival sources, many of them recently declassified. Here we see for the first time how the war played in the key world capitals—not merely in Washington, Saigon, and Hanoi, but also in Paris and London, in Tokyo and Ottawa, in Moscow and Beijing. Choosing War is a powerful and devastating account of fear, favor, and hypocrisy at the highest echelons of American government, a book that will change forever our understanding of the tragedy that was the Vietnam War.
