Download or read book The War Is Over, Let's Go Shopping written by Paul A. Toth and published by . This book was released on 2017-07 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short story collection from novelist Paul A. Toth (Airplane Novel, Fizz, Fishnet, Finale) has been overdue since before his novels began coming out more than a decade ago. One of the most prolific short story writers among those working the first generation of online literary magazines at the turn of the 21st century, and ever since, Toth writes about decline, widely and generally, with a sense of humor tinged with absurdism and an unflinching honesty in his empathy for enormously flawed characters. The messy humanity on offer here, however, is ultimately not without hope of happiness, of purpose and love, our best reasons for being. "One of those books that, if history is kind, I'd wager will resonate years, decades, centuries hence itself, well beyond whatever fall is in store for each and every one of us near- and/or long-term to turn us all into refugees.... To immerse oneself in Toth's fictions is to be convinced of and accept such notions about yourself willingly, nay, jubilantly, cackling all the way to the grave. Decline, widely and generally, amid otherwise teeming advance.... Yet the messy humanity on offer in these stories is ultimately not without hope of happiness, of purpose and love." --Todd Dills, author of "Triumph of the Ape," "Sons of the Rapture," writing in the introduction
Download or read book Airplane Novel written by Paul A. Toth and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am the South Tower. This is my story.You must use extraordinary measures to tell an extraordinary story. This book might be a novel and it might not be a novel. The characters might be real and they might be fictions. Many of the events described happened or they did not. Rules will be broken. Our narrator is not a person. It is a building; the South Tower of the World Trade Center, whose height and thousands of windows provide the first truly-panoramic view of 9/11. Sometimes the only way to learn the truth is through fiction."Toth is a unique, gifted stylist whose prose is at times sharp, unpredictable, humorous, and always engaging. There have been a lot of books about 9/11 but I promise you none like this."-Midwest Book Review"Airplane Novel is less fictionalized history and more an examination of what it is to be human, for whatever that may be worth. It is complex through simplicity. Varied through repetition. It is a novel that may or may not be a novel. It is not a good story. It is an amazing story, and through it our narrator is both victor and victim."-The Dream People

Book Synopsis The Art of Harvey Kurtzman by : Denis Kitchen
Download or read book The Art of Harvey Kurtzman written by Denis Kitchen and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2012-07-25 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive anthology of the pioneering cartoonist and creator of Mad magazine, featuring 100s of classic and never-before-seeen illustrations. It’s difficult to overstate Harvey Kurtzman’s influence on pop culture. He discovered Robert Crumb and gave Gloria Steinem her first job in publishing. Terry Gilliam also started at his side, where he met John Cleese, and the genesis of Monty Python was formed. And Art Spiegelman has stated on record that he owes his career to him. Harvey Kurtzman was an astonishingly talented and influential artist, writer, editor, and satirist. The creator of MAD and Playboy’s “Little Annie Fanny” was called, “One of the most important figures in postwar America” by the New York Times. Kurtzman’s groundbreaking “realistic” war comics of the early ’50s and various satirical publications (MAD, Trump, Humbug, and Help!) had an immense impact on popular culture, inspiring a generation of underground cartoonists and comedians. The Art of Harvey Kurtzman includes hundreds of never-before-seen illustrations, paintings, pencil sketches, newly discovered lost E.C. Comics layouts, color compositions, illustrated correspondence, and vintage photos from the rich Kurtzman archives.

As the author, Charlie hopes that when you read EYE LOVE YOU, you can access your thoughts, recall deep memories and allow yourself to feel again. Feel the word-pictures that he paints, and remember, dream, feel those of your feelings which may have laid dormant and have not been accessed in a very long time. "Some people go through life without ever feeling a kiss, caress, a warm hug, or the love of another human being." He would like this book to be that warm hug, soft caress, or deep passionate kiss that one longs for while daydreaming. It is ok to laugh, cry and everything in between when you read poetry. It is your journey. Take your time and...enjoy!

Book Synopsis The Snow Was Dirty by : Georges Simenon
Download or read book The Snow Was Dirty written by Georges Simenon and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . . Simenon was unequaled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories.” —The Guardian In this brilliant new translation of Georges Simenon’s classic novel, a young man descends into a brutal world of crime “And always the dirty snow, the heaps of snow that look rotten, with black patches and embedded garbage . . . unable to cover the filth.” Nineteen-year-old Frank—thug, thief, son of a brothel owner—gets by surprisingly well despite living in a city under military occupation, but a warm house and a full stomach are not enough to make him feel truly alive in such a climate of deceit and betrayal. During a bleak, unending winter, he embarks on a string of violent and sordid crimes that set him on a path from which he can never return. Georges Simenon’s matchless novel is a brutal, compelling portrayal of a world without pity; a devastating journey through a psychological no man’s land.

Book Synopsis Goering Cross Examined by : Jacqueline George
Download or read book Goering Cross Examined written by Jacqueline George and published by Q~Press. This book was released on 2014-07-13 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Field Marshall Hermann Goering, Deputy Führer and commander of the Luftwaffe, appeared before the Nuremburg Tribunal in 1946 to answer for his crimes, the world was watching. Much of Europe had directly suffered through the war that he and the Nazi system had brought to the continent, and now he would have to answer for his crimes. On the other hand, Germany was full of Nazis who had been defeated but did not feel any part of the guilt for those terrible events. Would Goering be able to stand up for them, and give them hope for the future? Goering proved to be intelligent and resourceful, a natural leader who dominated the other defendants at the trial and showed no self-doubt at all. The evidence he gave on his own behalf made the unthinkable seem reasonable, the normal reaction of a government and country under threat from outside forces. He denied all knowledge of war crimes, and the crimes against humanity that were now being uncovered. Only cross-examination by American and British prosecutors could force him to admit his complicity, but Goering was far too clever to be pinned down easily. Here, in the actual words spoken by the three adversaries, is the story of the American prosecutor Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson and his British colleague Sir David Maxwell-Fyfe fighting to bring the true story of Goering’s crimes into the light. Using complete court transcripts, with commentaries on each session, this book allows the reader to follow the battle day by day. All three men, and especially Goering, jump from the pages in the words they used seventy years ago. This is Goering from a different angle, seen not through his deeds but as you might see him at a town hall meeting. He is talkative and charismatic, even when on trial for his life and with the ruins of the Third Reich around him. His trial is followed through to the end, and the book has an Epilogue from his fellow defendant Albert Speer. "This very readable book brings together the many strands of the Goering war crimes trial in a way that allows the interested but legally challenged reader to appreciate the hubris and depravity of the Reich's Deputy Führer. The reader is left with the impression that Goering, throughout his trial, believed in the righteousness of the Nazi Cause and was surprised and disappointed in the final outcome. Goering's testimony to the Tribunal is both chilling and a fitting final testimony to the Nazi era." ~ Charles Gillman-Wells
