The Shadowkiller: A Novel

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Every hair on Ty`s body, the skin on his neck and arms, everything was clenched in a primeval fear stimulus response. In the thick of the woods not ten yards away stood a creature, manlike, apelike . . . some sort of hairy humanoid, like a gorilla standing upright on long legs. Motionless, it stared at Ty, and Ty froze dead in his tracks. Jesus Christ, this is Bigfoot. BIGFOOT IS ANGRY. When careless campers unleash a raging forest fire, they inadvertently set in motion a blood-drenched spree of revenge. Motivated by the immolation of his family, a nearly eleven-foot-tall, preternaturally strong superprimate begins stalking the mountains northeast of Seattle, hunting the `small two-legs` he blames and leaving an eerie trail of missing people . . . but little else. As people begin vanishing from nearby forests, former software magnate Ty Greenwood risks everything to find out why. Tormented by his encounter with a Bigfoot three years… [detailed...]

In anticipation of another conflict, military planners and civilian thinkers struggled after 1918 with the painful implications of World War I. Given its scope, the wholesale mobilization of civilian populations, and the targeting of civilians via blockades and strategic bombing, many observers regarded this titanic conflict as a `total war`. They also concluded that any future conflict would bear the same hallmarks, and they… [detailed...]

How best to unlock the secrets of its spell? With quicksilver wit and provocative insight, Rosenbaum takes readers into the midst of fierce battles among the most brilliant Shakespearean scholars and directors over just how to delve deeper into the Shakespearean experience–deeper into… [detailed...]

The same family that had such an enlightening experience in Anthony Browne`s Zoo is now going to an art museum, Mom`s choice for her birthday treat. But wisecracking Dad and their two sons are skeptical about how much fun this trip will be, and they`re not quite sure what to make of the art. (`What on earth is that supposed to be?` asks Dad.) But, with Mom’s help, once the boys start really looking at the paintings, they begin to find what pleasures they contain. Most of the family leave with a new appreciation of art – Dad is just never going to get it – as well as a sketchbook. On the trip home, Mom teaches the boys – and readers – a drawing game, which one of her sons (this book’s author) has been playing ever since.

Description: When Michael Donaghy died in 2004 at the age of fifty, he was one of the UK`s best-known and best-loved poets, he was also a literary critic of the first rank. Donaghy`s prose is notable for the same delightfully lucid style and lightly worn erudition so admired in his verse. His was also the most intellectually promiscuous of minds, and he was happy to allude to Irish music, neuroscience and Renaissance art in the same breath - and rarely resisted a good joke, if it served his argumentative purpose. This companion volume to the `Collected Poems` gathers together the best of his writing on poetry and the arts, as well as a number of fascinating and revealing interviews. It also reprints his classic primer in ars poetica, `Wallflowers`. [detailed...]

The Shape of the New Europe

2006 y.
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Description: The European Union and European identity were until recently the objects of separate branches of scholarship and inquiry. With the entry of Central and Eastern European members into the EU, it has become clear that its future can no longer be considered in isolation from the future of European identity. Taking Jurgen Habermas`s plea for a European constitution and a normative foundation for the EU as its starting point, this volume brings together the ideas of distinguished scholars in philosophy, political science, sociology, history, law and theology in order to address the shifting relationship between constitutionality, political culture, history and collective identity. The book argues that the future shape of Europe will not only result from external processes of globalisation but from the interaction between these social spheres within Europe.
