Описание: By turns dark and hilarious, at times solemn and mysterious, Your Duck is My Duck cements Deborah Eisenberg's reputation as one of America's greatest living writers of fiction. "Hugely intelligent, funny, subtle, beautifully written, these stories reach beyond New York into the world."-Tessa Hadley"If our culture can produce a writer this wonderful, there must be something beautiful about us yet."-George Saunders"[A] scintillating showcase."-Anthony Cummins, The Observer"Shudderingly intimate and mordantly funny."-The New York TimesNow in B-format PaperbackEach of the six stories that make up this new collection-Eisenberg's first for twelve years-has the heft and complexity of a novel. With her own inexorable logic and uncanny ability to conjure up the strange states of mind and emotion that constitute our daily consciousness, Eisenberg pulls us as if by gossamer threads through the lives of her characters.
In her world, the forces of money, sex and power cannot be escaped, and the force of history, whether confronted or denied, cannot be evaded. No one writes better about time, tragedy and grief, and the indifferent but beautiful universe around us. "Ducks are having a literary moment."-The Times' Books Bulletin"Comic, elegant and pitch perfect."-Vanity Fair
John Eisenberg's That First Season is the seldom-studied prequel to a phenomenal football career for Vince Lombardi and the Packers, drawing on exhaustive research and interviews to tell an incredible ensemble tale of a team, a town, and their leader.
The once-vaunted Green Bay Packers were a laughing stock by the late 1950s. They hadn't fielded a winning team in more than a decade and were close to losing their franchise to another city. They were in desperate need of a savior, and he arrived in a wood-paneled station wagon in the dead of winter from New York City. In a single year, Vince Lombardi--the grizzled coach who took no bull--transformed a team of underachievers into winners and resurrected a city known for its passion for sport.

Описание: "The people's guide to paradox." "A redemptive tragicomedy of life's inherent absurdity." "Mind-bending brain-teasers about the meaning of life " "For people in no shape for the human condition." "A real iconoclassic " -- All humor is philosophical inquiry. But Ludwig Wittgenstein went further and wrote: "An entire treatise of philosophy could be written that consists entirely of jokes." Author Evan Hodkins similarly wrote: "The next religion will consist of nothing more than an expansive catalog of humor." And Cesar Cruz said art should "comfort the disturbed, and disturb the comfortable." And now, dear reader, you have stumbled upon a curious but relatable collection of all-original jokes that blends all three ideas together into easy-to-digest, family-friendly, bite-sized nuggets called laughorisms (This is the large-print version. A fun-sized/pocketbook version is also available by clicking on All 3 Versions.) --- "The book that happened while you were making other plans " "A revolutionary approach to maintaining the status quo " "For people in recovery from the self-help industry."
--- (From the Preface) - It's rare to find a trifecta of thought streams and modalities as unexpectedly intertwined as what we find in this one-of-a-kind collection of original, one-sentence jokes - aphorisms (or "laughorisms") known as The Eisenberg Principles. In these one-sentence vignettes, the fields of philosophy and psychology marry into uproariously funny trysts of paradoxical play, each one like a piece of deluxe brain-candy which is no less serious in its treatment of the human condition as it is absurd. We are not only afforded a chance to glimpse into the thoughts of this wondrously twisted thinker, we are challenged to follow him into the surprising and impossible rabbit holes of language he unearths on every page. F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time -- and still retain the ability to function." This catalog of contradictions is like a compendium of modern Zen koans that puts you through Fitzgerald's test, playing with the principles of paradox, polarity, and incongruity, and taking you from the "comforts of clich " to the "chasms of contradiction" with just a few strokes of a pen. --- "The book about quieting the mind that everyone is talking about " "Everything you need to know about futility in a single paperback." "The pocketbook guide to people." --- "Many of the jokes Eisenberg unspools have the psychic charge of a Zen koan, the brevity and immediacy of a haiku, and aim to capture the absurdity of an existence that can make the most sense when efforts to comprehend it are fully abandoned." Charles Brennan, Boulder Daily Camera. "Eisenberg uses verbal gymnastics to twist and stretch the boundaries of logic, throwing the semantics of everyday expressions into question - stirring our collective conversation about consciousness forward." Michael Travers, EJI --- This is the Large-Print size. There is also a fun-sized pocketbook edition for sale on Amazon, found by clicking on "All Three Versions" and exploring the drop-down menu).
