Book Description
Immediately after Noon is sworn in as governor, the PTB begins a campaign to discredit him. Shortly afterward, Noon is ordered to appear before Congress to answer questions about the 56,000 deaths from the pre-election riots, the wholesale executions of drug-smugglers, his elimination of federal gun registry laws and his failure to order the arrest anyone involved with the Scarecrow paramilitary group. As they await his decision Congress and the president call up 50,000 federal troops for a possible invasion of New York City to take Noon by force should he refuse to comply. And although assured of victory they fail to take into account is that the smartest man in the world is also...the most dangerous!

Pages : 230
Book Description
In an America where the government is at the mercy of multinational corporations, where drug gangs terrorize entire cities, where only the wealthy receive police protection, and where the poor toil in cold and damp underground tunnels not for money, but for temporary relief from the draconian interest rate on their ever increasing debt. One man comes forward. And with the help of a media wizard, a genetic engineer, a renegade computer hacker and a deeply troubled military genius, incites a revolution that propels him into the national spotlight and changes the face of America forever. That man's name? NOON!
Morning, Noon, and Night
Author: Arnold WeinsteinPublisher: Random House

Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
From Homer and Shakespeare to Toni Morrison and Jonathan Safran Foer, major works of literature have a great deal to teach us about two of life’s most significant stages—growing up and growing old. Distinguised scholar Arnold Weinstein’s provocative and engaging new book, Morning, Noon, and Night, explores classic writing’s insights into coming-of-age and surrendering to time, and considers the impact of these revelations upon our lives. With wisdom, humor, and moving personal observations, Weinstein leads us to look deep inside ourselves and these great books, to see how we can use art as both mirror and guide. He offers incisive readings of seminal novels about childhood—Huck Finn’s empathy for the runaway slave Jim illuminates a child’s moral education; Catherine and Heathcliff’s struggle with obsessive passion in Wuthering Heights is hauntingly familiar to many young lovers; Dickens’s Pip, in Great Expectations, must grapple with a world that wishes him harm; and in Marjane Satrapi’s autobiographical Persepolis, little Marjane faces a different kind of struggle—growing into adolescence as her country moves through the pain of the Iranian Revolution. In turn, great writers also ponder the lessons learned in life’s twilight years: both King Lear and Willy Loman suffer as their patriarchal authority collapses and death creeps up; Brecht’s Mother Courage displays the inspiring indomitability of an aging woman who has “borne every possible blow. . . but is still standing, still moving.” And older love can sometimes be funny (Rip Van Winkle conveniently sleeps right through his marriage) and sometimes tragic (as J. M. Coetzee’s David Lurie learns the hard way, in Disgrace). Tapping into the hearts and minds of memorable characters, from Sophocles’ Oedipus to Artie in Art Spiegelman’s Maus, Morning, Noon, and Night makes an eloquent and powerful case for the role of great literature as a knowing window into our lives and times. Its intelligence, passion, and genuine appreciation for the written word remind us just how crucial books are to the business of being human.
DARKNESS AT NOON
Author: ARTHUR KOESTELERSNoon
Author: Aatish TaseerPublisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 9350294443
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
Subtle and haunting, Noon is the story of Rehan Tabassum, a young man who has seen a childhood of uncertainty, and whose vulnerability has rendered him a gaze so keen that it divines easily the shifts around him: his mother and her new husband, the emergence of a dazzling new India, the retreat of the old, muted order of dust and shortages, and the swell of a suppressed people. In this uncompromising yet unexpectedly tender third book, Aatish Taseer maps a difficult period in India and Pakistan, a period of deep upheavals, whose true direction is elusive. By presenting Rehan's journey through lands of sudden wealth and hidden violence, in an atmosphere of political quicksand and moral danger, Taseer brings us into closer contact with a world experiencing convulsive change. Stark, brave, and absolutely compelling, Noon confirms Aatish Taseer as a writer of emotional acuity and great intellectual gift.
