The Ardennes Tapes
Author: Timothy B. Benford
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780595006809
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
Christmas Eve, 1944. The Ardennes Forest was thick with blood as the Battle of The Bulge raged on. But in the midst of combat, two hundred troops—Americans and Germans alike—abruptly ceased fighting each other and united to face one common, and unspeakable, enemy. Only two men survived. Now, more than five decades later, one still remains institutionalized and unable, or unwilling, to speak. Then, suddenly, he begins to rant, shrieking in terror about unmentionable horror in the Ardennes… pray that somebody listens!

Spies and Holy Wars
Author: Reeva Spector Simon
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292739605
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Illuminating a powerful intersection between popular culture and global politics, Spies and Holy Wars draws on a sampling of more than eight hundred British and American thrillers that are propelled by the theme of jihad—an Islamic holy war or crusade against the West. Published over the past century, the books in this expansive study encompass spy novels and crime fiction, illustrating new connections between these genres and Western imperialism. Demonstrating the social implications of the popularity of such books, Reeva Spector Simon covers how the Middle Eastern villain evolved from being the malleable victim before World War II to the international, techno-savvy figure in today's crime novels. She explores the impact of James Bond, pulp fiction, and comic books and also analyzes the ways in which world events shaped the genre, particularly in recent years. Worldwide terrorism and economic domination prevail as the most common sources of narrative tension in these works, while military "tech novels" restored the prestige of the American hero in the wake of post-Vietnam skepticism. Moving beyond stereotypes, Simon examines the relationships between publishing trends, political trends, and popular culture at large—giving voice to the previously unexamined truths that emerge from these provocative page-turners.
