Amnesia
Author: Peter Carey
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0385352786
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
The two-time Booker Prize winner now gives us an exceedingly timely, exhilarating novel—at once dark, suspenseful, and seriously funny—that journeys to the place where the cyber underworld collides with international power politics. When Gaby Baillieux releases the Angel Worm into Australia’s prison computer system, hundreds of asylum-seekers walk free. And because the Americans run the prisons (let’s be honest: as they do in so many parts of her country) the doors of some five thousand jails in the United States also open. Is this a mistake, or a declaration of cyber war? And does it have anything to do with the largely forgotten Battle of Brisbane between American and Australian forces in 1942? Or with the CIA-influenced coup in Australia in 1975? Felix Moore, known to himself as “our sole remaining left-wing journalist,” is determined to write Gaby’s biography in order to find the answers—to save her, his own career, and, perhaps, his country. But how to get Gaby—on the run, scared, confused, and angry—to cooperate? Bringing together the world of hackers and radicals with the “special relationship” between the United States and Australia, and Australia and the CIA, Amnesia is a novel that speaks powerfully about the often hidden past—but most urgently about the more and more hidden present.

Transgender
Author: Felix Conrad
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781519037428
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
"Quite frankly, my research on autogynephilia was biased." This astonishing admission from trans-advocate, Felix Conrad, is prompted by an e-mail from a young reader who has fallen into clinical depression because she believes she is not transgender, but has 'a fetish."Chasing down his own secret fears of fetishism and delusion, Felix Conrad decides to throw politics to the wind and launch the world's first objective analysis of the two most common alternative transgender narratives - firstly, that the condition is an outgrowth of a paraphilia, and secondly that it is a delusion. His incredible findings - drawn from diverse disciplines such as evolutionary biology, linguistics and ethology - usher in a new era of understanding complex subjects such as the self as an erotic target, hybrid gender identities, and the biological dynamics which underpin the need to transition.This compelling narrative - both personal and scientific - will have you wondering if Felix Conrad is trying not just to save his young reader, but also himself.
