Download or read book Going Rouge written by Richard Kim and published by OR Books. This book was released on 2009 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sarah Palin has many faces: hockey mom, fundamentalist Christian, sex symbol, Republican ideologue, fashion icon, "maverick" populist. But, above all, Palin has become one thing: an American obsession that just won't go away. Edited by two senior editors at 'The Nation' magazine, this sharp, smart, up-to-the-minute book examines Palin's quirky origins in Wasilla, Alaska, her spectacular rise to the effective leadership of the Republican Party, and the nightmarish prospect of her continuing to dominate the nation's political scene.

Book excerpt: The November 2020 US election was arguably the most consequential since the 1860 election of Abraham Lincoln--and grassroots leaders and organizers played crucial roles in the contention for the presidency and control of both houses of Congress. Power Concedes Nothing tells the stories behind a victory that won both the White House and the Senate and powered progressive candidates to new levels of influence.

Book Synopsis An Apprenticeship or The Book of Pleasures by : Clarice Lispector
Download or read book An Apprenticeship or The Book of Pleasures written by Clarice Lispector and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback, a romantic love story by the great Brazilian writer Lóri, a primary school teacher, is isolated and nervous, comfortable with children but unable to connect to adults. When she meets Ulisses, a professor of philosophy, an opportunity opens: a chance to escape the shipwreck of introspection and embrace the love, including the sexual love, of a man. Her attempt, as Sheila Heti writes in her afterword, is not only “to love and to be loved,” but also “to be worthy of life itself.” Published in 1968, An Apprenticeship is Clarice Lispector’s attempt to reinvent herself following the exhausting effort of her metaphysical masterpiece The Passion According to G. H. Here, in this unconventional love story, she explores the ways in which people try to bridge the gaps between them, and the result, unusual in her work, surprised many readers and became a bestseller. Some appreciated its accessibility; others denounced it as sexist or superficial. To both admirers and critics, the olympian Clarice gave a typically elliptical answer: “I humanized myself,” she said. “The book reflects that.”
Download or read book And/or written by Jenn Marie Nunes and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Jenn Marie Nunes writes the body, but does not right it. Hers are not corrective gestures, but gestures that seek to trouble the very notion of 'correct.' In the performative AND/OR, the text, like a body, breaks. The text, like a noncommittal lover, breaks off. An abject poetry of footnotes: that which is expelled, though still bound to the body--the textual body disrupted and repositioned. As AND/OR suggests, we are both chef and meal. Here, partial, we are becoming-whole in our rejection of wholeness--repeating, 'There are things I take into my body to whole me.' Being held by a word versus being held up by a word. A comfort or (and) a violence. Here, language changes us, plumps us up, makes us ready for our own devouring: As a reader, one can say with Nunes, 'words make me meat, ' and we, like her poetry, are sinewy and delicious.--Kristi Maxwell Jenn Marie Nunes's AND/OR flings us headlong into the forward slash. We tip and teeter, clipped mid-parenthetical, balanced on the edge of an incomplete definition. When we look down we see multiple referents in the footnotes, or a replacement, or a 'rephrasing synonym.' Gender languages itself on this precarious divide--'When I thought no difference between men & women'--while language genders the body/text at this jagged rift--'My problem then its twoness.' Whether held as two opposing ideas, or taken into the body simultaneously [fe/male, or sex/gender, or love/sex, or s/he, or w/hole, or t/here, or human/animal], Nunes consumes duality with patterns of interchange. What is interchangeable? What can be interchanged? In its decomposition the gap becomes unexpectedly whole.--Jai Arun Ravine Nunes's archive subverts and queers popular affectations of spoken gender, and haunts. Like encountering a gallery of arteries framed by the body, and wearing John Berger's vagina as glasses, these poems--tandem voices--are a mesmerizing lens for a new way of seeing. AND/OR is like looking in the mirror and not feeling ashamed. One of those pocket-sized mirrors perfect for squatting over with your pants off.--Kim Gek Lin Short With humor and a sharp critical eye, Jenn Marie Nunes's AND/OR interrogates the line between the erotic and the perverse, as any sex literature worth anything should. Nunes's sex, however, is not so simple as a lingering orifice or a searching phallus, nor is it stably situated in the partitioned body's anatomy. Instead, AND/OR offers a beautiful anxiety that calls to mind the long moment before the revelation in Barthes's paradox of the striptease, before all is settled, when the erotic lingers in its inexhaustible space of indecision. This is simply a stunning, necessarily complex debut collection of poems by Jenn Marie Nunes that will pull you like a hand you court to stroke your neck.--Dawn Lundy Martin

Book excerpt: A celebrated performance artist's mesmerizing riffs on sex in American politics. Based on her widely praised performance pieceUnicorn Gratitude Mystery ("Wickedly funny," as described byThe New York Times), Karen Finley'sGrabbing Pussy explores the Shakespearean dynamics that surface when libidos and loyalties clash in the public and private personas of Donald Trump, Hillary and Bill Clinton, Huma Abedin and Anthony Weiner, and now Harvey Weinstein. Standing in the tradition of Allen Ginsberg'sHowl, Finley's words jolt the reader into new insights about the ways the darkly private can drive the public realm in dizzying twists and turns. The aggression of intimacy, the disparity of gender, and the vital importance of hair are all encompassed in Finley's exhilarating canter.
Download or read book Cypherpunks written by Julian Assange and published by . This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet has led to revolutions across the world but a crackdown is now in full swing. As whole societies move online, mass surveillance programs are being deployed globally. Our civilization has reached a crossroads. In one direction lies a future promoting "privacy for the weak and transparency for the powerful"; in the other is an internet that transfers power over entire populations to an unaccountable complex of spy agencies and their trans-national corporate allies. Cypherpunks are activists who advocate the mass use of strong cryptography as a way protecting our basic freedoms against this onslaught. Julian Assange, the editor-in-chief of an visionary behind Wikileaks, has been a leading voice in the cypherpunk movement since the 1990s. Now, in a timely and important new book, Assange brings together a group of rebel thinkers and activists from the front line of the battle for cyberspace to discuss whether the internet will emancipate or enslave all of us.--

Download or read book Twitterature written by Alexander Aciman and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-12-29 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps while reading Shakespeare you've asked yourself, What exactly is Hamlet trying to tell me? Why must he mince words and muse in lyricism and, in short, whack about the shrub? But if the Prince of Denmark had a Twitter account and an iPhone, he could tell his story in real time--and concisely! Hence the genius of Twitterature. Hatched in a dorm room at the brain trust that is the University of Chicago, Twitterature is a hilarious and irreverent re-imagining of the classics as a series of 140-character tweets from the protagonist. Providing a crash course in more than eighty of the world's best-known books, from Homer to Harry Potter, Virgil to Voltaire, Tolstoy to Twilight and Dante to The Da Vinci Code. It's the ultimate Cliffs Notes. Because as great as the classics are, who has time to read those big, long books anymore? Sample tweets: From Hamlet: WTF IS POLONIUS DOING BEHIND THE CURTAIN??? From the Harry Potter series: Oh man big tournament at my school this year!! PSYCHED! I hope nobody dies this year, and every year as if by clockwork. From The Great Gatsby: Gatsby is so emo. Who cries about his girlfriend while eating breakfast...IN THE POOL?
