Описание:

The city is a watershed. Every street leads down. Just start walking, sooner or later youll end up down by the river.


Valley of Fools is the story of a rebellious young man, Emerson, who comes of age in a home for depressed morons and crazy bastards. At age 24, he suddenly finds himself out in the streets with nothing but his principles, a bad attitude, and a suitcase full of underwear and cigarettes.


Through a series of unfortunate coincidences, Emerson is caught in the media spotlight, the central figure of a political scandal involving the storage of nuclear waste on the greatest river in the nation, and an election campaign focused on providing dental health care for the homeless population of the city.


Among the bums, madmen, and visionaries of the Brewery Street Community, Emerson learns about truth, pride, and the cost of living, where its damn hard enough without watching somebody else not even try.

Farm to Form: Modernist Literature and Ecologies of Food in the British Empire

Описание: In this groundbreaking book, Jessica Martell investigates the relationship between industrial food and the emergence of literary modernisms in Britain and Ireland. By the early twentieth century, the industrialization of the British Empire's food system had rendered many traditional farming operations, and attendant agrarian ways of life, obsolete. Weaving insights from modernist studies, food studies, and ecocriticism, Farm to Form contends that industrial food made nature "modernist," a term used as literary scholars understand it stylistically disorienting, unfamiliar, and artificial but also exhilarating, excessive, and above all, new. Martell draws in part upon archives in the United Kingdom but also presents imperial foodways as an extended rehearsal for the current era of industrial food supremacy. She analyzes how pastoral mode, anachronism, fragmentation, and polyvocal narration reflect the power of the literary arts to reckon with, and to resist, the new "modernist ecologies" of the twentieth century.Deeply informed by Martell's extensive knowledge of modern British, Irish, American, and World Literatures, this progressive work positions modernism as central to the study of narratives of resistance against social and environmental degradation. Analyzed works include those of Thomas Hardy, E. M. Forster, Virginia Woolf, Joseph Conrad, George Russell, and James Joyce.In light of climate change, fossil fuel supremacy, nutritional dearth, and other pressing food issues, modernist texts bring to life an era of crisis and anxiety similar to our own. In doing so, Martell summons the past as a way to employ the modernist term of "defamiliarizing" the present so that entrenched perceptions can be challenged. Our current food regime is both new and constantly evolving with the first industrial food trades. Studying earlier cultural responses to them invites us to return to persistent problems with new insights and renewed passion.

Описание:

'As far as I am concerned, Aunt Violet, I don't want another penny of your money. I can go out and earn my bread' and she saw a distinct picture of herself working her fingers to the bone and being seduced by goodness knows whom.

Obsessed with money and class and all the appearances of a sophisticated life, but coming herself from genteel poverty, Cathie Martell rarely loses her focus on getting what she wants, regardless of the feelings or happiness of those who get in her way. Her Aunt Violet, for example, who finances her education, or her first husband, or the man she's set her sights on to be her second (not to mention that man's current wife).

Elizabeth Eliot's third novel, first published in 1953, follows an utterly self-absorbed, superficial woman from her teens to her second marriage. But if that sounds unsavoury, you clearly haven't encountered Eliot's giddy prose, as packed with clever insights and a sharp eye for detail as it is with humour. This new edition includes an introduction by Elizabeth Crawford.

Furrowed Middlebrow and Dean Street Press have also reprinted three of Eliot's other long-neglected novels--Alice, Henry, and Cecil--in their first new editions for more than half a century.

"Malicious, alarmingly observant and continually amusing" Sunday Times

"There are sad patches in this book because wickedness is a sad business, but also enchantingly funny ones. Lady Elizabeth's writing is light and witty as ever--delicious conversation pieces again--and her judgment of people is always penetrating and often tolerant" Time and Tide

"Written with a humour that is adult without being cynical and from an outlook that is observant without being critical" The Sphere

Описание:

Can humans find a place in a world filled with self-replicating, AI-controlled nanobots?


Sophie understood the problem better than any other cyber-sorcerer. She'd been there at the beginning. The benign AI, Hippocrates, has never spoken to any other humans besides her and Michael and is now missing. The other AI, Wiindigo, means nothing good for humans. The rogue intelligence intends to dominate the world and all that it contains, humans included.


In the world after AI, nanobot mediated spells can be performed by knowledgeable humans, leaving those who don't have that ability as a permanent underclass. Spells can be used for DNA manipulation and, as a result, many species of were-creatures exist. Chimeras, animals with human DNA, have developed the ability to speak. Brownies exist, and Fairies fly over the meadows.


All is not well in the new order. Wiindigo's nanites have scattered over the countryside and blindly seek to regroup. Local concentrations of the rogue AI's nanites form horrendous threats, taking the semblance of mythological monsters.


The "Good Powers," Sophie and Michael, must contend with other sorcerers in their struggle to keep humans from becoming Wiindigo's puppets. Wiindigo's nanites are everywhere and pose a constant threat.


They will need all the assistance they can get, from every source-no matter how strange.
