Book Description
A terrible thing happened to me. Perhaps that is an oversimplification but it will have to do. I realized that there were a lot of things going on - a lot of loose threads that are untying further. Of course, I was in a process of magnificent unraveling to realize this. I don't recommend trying that by the way. Anyhow, you are probably aware that everything is a story. The irresistible need for denouement may "bring a story together" but it also unties something else, somewhere else. All stories - all books - are born from one another (this one is born from the one that came before it). They are an infinite and ancient line of irrational call and response. Never-ending. That is until now until it is all tied back together. An act of surgical theft, cut, paste, cauterize, rebirth. This is an epilogue, an apocalypse, and an alchemical allegory. It is a tying together of things to try and stop the unraveling, the addiction to the denouement which lurks at the center of contemporary culture at the black heart of all entertainment and all stories - including our own.

Book Description
When a freak accident involving an infallible gambler, a truck full of chickens and a gas pump leaves an easygoing young man named Iple deaf, he decides to travel to Antarctica. Tagging along with a team of contrary, often childish scientists, he is the sole member of the expedition to keep his head as the days stretch and the nights become non-existent. While wandering the tundra Iple finds the frozen body of a runaway scientist whose ghost asks him to detour towards an enormous sheet of translucent ice. Below the sheet, with her four legs in the air, is Isabella, a dinosaur and the last DNA repository of a wealth of human and pre-human knowledge. What follows is a mesmerizing detour into our species' fear and wonder at the nature of prediction. Paul Fattaruso's vision is a statisticians wet dream and a mystics worst nightmare?or is it the other way around? Fattaruso, trained as a poet, spins a lyrical and highly visual modern day fable, a creation myth for the generation whose gods look more like dinosaurs than any monster before or since.

But there is another enemy at work. Behind the tangle of ambitions and animosities driving kings and commoners alike, an ancient evil thirsts for a revenge of its own: a revenge that demands the blood of Maeniel and Regeane…and of all humanity. “Action and intrigue-filled . . . Borchardt’s strength . . . is her deeply researched setting, which brings alive the barbaric era after the fall of the Roman Empire.”—Publishers Weekly

Book Description
Antonio's story started many years before his birth at a time when political turmoil brewed over much of the world. It was a time when many countries were still licking the wounds they had encountered from the First World War, a war which many believed would end all wars. But while some sought the everlasting peace they had hoped for, others were occupied developing a personal agenda of power and conquest, creating an atmosphere of political chaos by which Antonio and many youngsters like him would be cheated out of the childhood and adolescence. In many ways, Antonio is the personification of Italy and the many Italians who suffered under the tyranny of Fascism or died as a consequence of it.
