Book Description
It promises to be a less-than-thrilling summer for 16-year-old Manhattanite Max Whooten. He doesn’t have a job. His parents are annoying. His younger sister is even more annoying. His buddy Trevor just got out of a mental institution and the hottest girl he knows is Leila, his best friend, who he’ll never get with. All he’s got to keep him company is his own anger. An anger he seemingly has no control over and which is increasingly taking over his life. But an unexpected turn of events (well, not so unexpected— the family cat, Mozart, aka Crappy, was sure to choke on a hairball sometime) leads him to his aunt’s place in Woodstock. After Crappy is safely laid to rest next to his sister Madame Chow, Max decides to stick around Woodstock for a few weeks. Sure, his Aunt Ginny might be a bit eccentric, but she does introduce Max to Zini, a young artist who turns out to be his muse. This just might be the recipe for finding love, and most definitely finding himself./DIVDIV Max lets us into his frustrated, highly hormonal, comical, and sometimes inspired world through a series of diary entries in this coming-of-age story about an ordinary boy becoming an extraordinary person and writer.

Yes, I Am A Vampire
Author: Stephen Kozeniewski
Publisher: French Press Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
The Collected Short Fiction and Autobiography of Stephen Kozeniewski, 2013-2016 Despite all the evidence to the contrary, I swear I am not a vampire. Cross my heart and…eh, nevermind. Just trust me, there are no vampires within these pages. Plenty of zombies, though. One of the short stories in this book features a zombie caveman, for instance. And another is called Exploding Shit Zombies. You can probably guess what that one's about. Not every story is zombie-themed, of course. I've also got a monster under the bed piece that's pretty fucking scary. And in another, a bunch of little alien goblins take over a farmstead. This isn't just a short story collection, either. Half of it's my autobiography. I guarantee you've never seen those two styles mashed together before. I also guarantee you've never seen any fucking vampires before. Not here. Not anywhere. So let's just drop it. What do you mean, bloodstains all over the book? Don't worry about those. Just wipe the gore off your fingers and dive in to… Yes, I Am A Vampire

Privileged Access
Author: Brie Gertler
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351908715
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 512
Book Description
How do you grasp the contents of your mind - your desires, your fears, your sensations, your beliefs? We typically think that we are better able to discern our own mental states than others are. But is this correct? And if it is, what explains your special or 'privileged' access to your own states? Privileged Access is a comprehensive anthology of new and seminal essays, by leading philosophers, about the nature of self-knowledge. Most of the essays are new, including specially commissioned contributions from such prominent thinkers as Bermúdez, Dretske, Lycan, Sosa and others, but the anthology also includes reprints of classic articles by Boghossian, Shoemaker, Wright and others. The volume provides for an in-depth understanding of contemporary answers to key philosophical questions which have strongly influenced developments in epistemology, ontology, and the philosophy of mind since Descartes. Featuring an introductory chapter outlining the main currents of thought about self-knowledge, this comprehensive collection of cutting-edge philosophical work will prove an invaluable resource for students and researchers alike.

Pages : 94
Book Description
Everything this poet touches is volatile—the poet himself, the people and world around him, ideas and mythologies, the ghosts of memory and the dream of possible futures, all seem to burst into fragments. Mark Turcotte uses poetry to gather up the pieces—the shards of joy and grief, peace and doubt, strength and temptation, questions and answers—as he tries to define and rediscover what is lost when everyday life becomes explosive.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
I Am a Chechen! offers a lyrical fusion of exotic legends, stories and memories of Chechnya: a land of wondrous beauty, site of genocides past and present, and the author's ancestral home. Haunted by memories of the land he deserted, Sadulaev tells the stories of those who stayed behind. He brings dead friends back to life again, revisiting their first loves, their passion for rock music, their quests for martyrdom. And he immerses us in the intoxicating beauty of his homeland's mountains, blossoms and the flocks of migratory swallows that fill its skies. This is an intensely personal journey through the carnage of the war, exploring the pain, the challenge, and above all the meaning of being a Chechen.
