Escape from the Wasteland by Susan Jolliffe Napier Pdf

Lurid depictions of sex and impotence, themes of emperor worship and violence, the use of realism and myth--these characterize the fiction of Mishima Yukio and Oe Kenzaburo. Susan Napier discovers surprising similarities as well as provocative dissimilarities in the work of two writers of radically different political orientations. Napier places Yukio’s and Kenzaburo’s fiction in the context of postwar Japanese political and social realities and, in a new preface for the paperback edition, reflects on each writer’s position in the tradition of Japanese literature.

Others deal with the reality of faltering relationships trying to find peace with ourselves, overcoming addiction and failure.

Within the hexed walls of the fortress, Dan and his companions are plagued with unsettling questions...questions whose answers will require a deeper infiltration into the secret recesses of the centuries-old castle, answers which will involve confrontations with the citadel's animate and inanimate residents, and answers which will entail encounters with the savage beasts of the forest.

Will the rescuers breach the spatial boundaries of the parallel world and return home?

Zombie Spaceship Wasteland by Patton Oswalt Pdf

Prepare yourself for a journey through the world of Patton Oswalt, one of the most creative, insightful, and hysterical voices on the entertain­ment scene today. Widely known for his roles in the films Big Fan and Ratatouille, as well as the television hit The King of Queens, Patton Oswalt—a staple of Comedy Central—has been amusing audiences for decades. Now, with Zombie Spaceship Wasteland, he offers a fascinating look into his most unusual, and lovable, mindscape. Oswalt combines memoir with uproarious humor, from snow forts to Dungeons & Dragons to gifts from Grandma that had to be explained. He remem­bers his teen summers spent working in a movie Cineplex and his early years doing stand-up. Readers are also treated to several graphic elements, includ­ing a vampire tale for the rest of us and some greeting cards with a special touch. Then there’s the book’s centerpiece, which posits that before all young creative minds have anything to write about, they will home in on one of three story lines: zom­bies, spaceships, or wastelands. Oswalt chose wastelands, and ever since he has been mining our society’s wasteland for perversion and excess, pop culture and fatty foods, indie rock and single-malt scotch. Zombie Spaceship Wasteland is an inventive account of the evolution of Patton Oswalt’s wildly insightful worldview, sure to indulge his legion of fans and lure many new admirers to his very entertaining “wasteland.”

There Is No Escape, but That’S a Good Thing by Dan Costello Pdf

This book is a spiritual manual of mind tools designed to move the reader past obstacles to their peace, joy, and especially, self-realization. This technology allows for not only a more fulfilling life but a better world. The audience will be brought to the book in many ways. Some will come from desperation from the circuitous suffering caused by trying to be fulfilled in the world of form, and some will come from curiosities and the spark of desire. The audience level is anyone who is willing to challenge and move beyond previous thinking into newness. They must be willing to entertain abstract thought and have eyes and ears open for love. The main points are that, if we allow for the incorporation of spiritually based tools, we can achieve a peace beyond this world and possibly become a conduit for its extension on earth.
