Описание: Patrick Ness's #1 New York Times bestseller in a movie tie-in version with a striking cover. The monster in Conor's backyard is not the one he's been expecting -- the one from the nightmare he's had every night since his mother started her treatments. This monster is ancient. And wild. And it wants something from Conor. It wants the truth. From the final idea of award-winning author Siobhan Dowd--whose premature death from cancer prevented her from writing it herself--Patrick Ness has spun a haunting and darkly funny novel of mischief, loss, and monsters both real and imagined. This paperback movie tie-in edition includes a book group discussion guide.

Описание: Feminist Formalism and Early Modern Women’s Writing reexamines the relationship between gender and form in early modern women’s writing in essays that elaborate the specific literary strategies of women writers, that examine women’s debts to and appropriations of different literary genres, and that offer practical suggestions for the teaching of women’s texts in several different contexts. Contributors explore the possibility of feminist formalism, a methodology that both attends to the structural, rhetorical, and other formal techniques of a given text and takes gender as a central category of analysis. This collection contends that feminist formalism is a useful tool for scholars of the early modern period and for literary studies more broadly because it marries the traditional questions of formalism—including questions of style, genre, and literary history—with the political and cultural concerns of feminist inquiry.
Contributors reposition works by important women writers—such as Margaret Cavendish, Hester Pulter, Mary Wroth, and Katherine Philips—as central to the development of English literary tradition. By examining a variety of texts written by women, including recipes, emblems, exchanges, and poetry, Feminist Formalism and Early Modern Women’s Writing contributes to existing scholarship on early modern women’s writing while extending it in new and important directions.

Описание: The controversial bestseller on sexual politics by the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who has been described as `the most dangerous columnist in America`
Описание: Award-winning journalist Mike McAlary pulls the curtain and reveals the details of a disturbing case of police corruption based on the confession of NYPD officer Michael Dowd and the testimony of Sergeant Joseph Trimboli, the detective investigating the case and a key witness. New York City investigators sat in stunned disbelief as rogue NYPD police officer Michael Dowd recounted the criminal activities perpetrated by his band of corrupt fellow cops, from drug dealing and extortion to theft and racketeering. For NYPD Det. Sgt. Joseph Trimboli, the witness as the 1933 Mollen Commission hearings on police corruption, vindication had arrived. His heroic five-year investigation of Dowd was finally being recognized. From award-winning journalist Mike McAlary--whose front-page New York Post coverage of Trimboli's investigation helped spark the Mollen Commission--comes an unforgettable account of the worst case to rock New York since Frank Serpico testified before the Knapp Commission in 1972. Against the backdrop of the NYPD's "blue wall of silence," McAlary tells the compelling story of a cop intoxicated by the power his badge conferred, the man willing to sacrifice everything to put him away, and a police department on the brink of chaos.
