Sonny is a South Asian man from New Jersey and aspiring nightclub party promoter with an outlandish fashion sense. Pedro is a drug-addicted art-school dropout who has rejected his parents' upwardly mobile ambitions. The young men's chance encounter in a subway tunnel during a fatal stabbing sends Pedro on a guilt-ridden drug binge fueled by prostitution. Pedro's quest for drugs and money sends him through seedy scenes on Manhattan train tracks and piers.

Book Description
The Darkness At The End Of The Tunnel... is a book that was born out of pain and is dedicated to all those who have tasted loneliness. To those who saw the darkness and the light within the darkness....To those life has passed by and left behind. To the lonely stranger who walks in a rainy town. To the woman who sits by the window for days, anticipating the return of her love. To the man who saw his beloved in the arms of another and remained silent. To those who were misunderstood and found themselves on a lonely island amongst the crowd...To those who sat long nights in a cold, dark room and didn't have a single soul in the whole world. To those who embraced themselves at nightfall, with cold sheets, wrapped in silence. To those hearts in which the candle of love still flickers. To all those, “The Darkness” is the light of all dreams, the longing, the desire and the yearning. Because only through the greatest loneliness, suffering, pain, and absence, only through the deepest valley and the darkest darkness, can you arrive at the footsteps of the greatest love of all...

Book Description
Underground warfare, a tactic of yesteryear, has re-emerged as a global and rapidly diffusing threat. This book is the first of its kind to examine tunnel warfare in a systematic and comprehensive way, addressing the legal issues while keeping in mind operational and strategic challenges. Like many other aspects of contemporary warfare, the renewed use of the subterranean in armed conflict presents a challenge for democracies wishing to abide by the law. To Dr. Richemond-Barak, this challenge has not only been under-explored, it is also largely underestimated by the community of states, security experts, and public opinion. She analyzes traditional concepts of the laws of war as they relate to tunnels and underground operations, contemplating questions such as whether tunnels constitute legitimate targets, the assessment of proportionality in anti-tunnel operations, and the availability of advanced warning in this complex terrain. She also identifies issues that are unique to underground warfare, including those that arise when cross-border tunnels burrow under a state's own civilian infrastructure.

One of the great short novels of the twentieth century—in an edition marking the 100th anniversary of the author's birth.

At its center is an artist named Juan Pablo Castel, who recounts from his prison cell his murder of a woman named María Iribarne. Obsessed from the moment he sees her examining one of his paintings, Castel fantasizes for months about how they might meet again. When he happens upon her one day, a relationship develops that convinces him of their mutual love. But Castel's growing paranoia leads him to destroy the one thing he truly cares about.
