Lunar Park by Bret Easton Ellis Pdf
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the New York Times bestselling author of American Psycho and Less Than Zero comes a chilling tale that combines reality, memoir, and fantasy to create a fascinating portrait of this most controversial writer but also a deeply moving novel about love and loss, parents and children, and ultimately forgiveness. “John Cheever writes The Shining.” —Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly Bret Ellis, the narrator of Lunar Park, is the bestselling writer whose first novel Less Than Zero catapulted him to international stardom while he was still in college. In the years that followed he found himself adrift in a world of wealth, drugs, and fame, as well as dealing with the unexpected death of his abusive father. After a decade of decadence a chance for salvation arrives; the chance to reconnect with an actress he was once involved with, and their son. But almost immediately his new life is threatened by a freak sequence of events and a bizarre series of murders that all seem to connect to Ellis’s past. His attempts to save his new world from his own demons makes Lunar Park Ellis’s most suspenseful novel. Look for Bret Easton Ellis’s new novel, The Shards!

When retired solicitor Alasdair Mills is burgled, the robbers leave behind his money and valuables, only stealing a pair of slippers that once belonged to Sir Walter Scott. Dismayed that the police are not taking the theft of his prized possession seriously, Alasdair turns to his old friend, the cunning Abigail Craig, for help. Donning disguises and hunting for clues, the pair turn detectives to track down the thief themselves. But the investigation takes a turn for the worse when Abigail and Alasdair stumble across something more sinister and realise there is far more to this case than a pair of missing slippers.

The King of the Park (Classic Reprint) by Marshall Saunders Pdf
Excerpt from The King of the Park Police Sergeant Hardy stood near the Boylston Street entrance to the Fens, his back toward the hundred and fifteen acres of park land which it was his duty to guard, his good-natured face overspread by a smile, as he watched a young lady taking a bicycle lesson in a secluded walk on his left. The young lady approached the machine held by her instructor as if it were a horse, then springing nimbly on it, her features became rigid with anxiety as she found that her steed would neither go on nor stand still.

King Sequoia by William C. Tweed Pdf
A naturist and historian for the National Parks Service offers a lively history of the giant sequoias of California and the love of nature they inspired. Former park ranger William C. Tweed takes readers on a tour of some of the world’s largest and oldest trees in a narrative that travels deep into the Sierra Nevada mountains, across the American West, and all the way to New Zealand. Along the way, he explores the American public's evolving relationship with sequoias, also known simply and affectionately as Big Trees. It’s no surprise that the sequoia groves of Yosemite and Calaveras were early tourist destinations. The species was the embodiment of California's superlative appeal. These giant redwoods were so beloved that special protections efforts sprang up to protect them from logging interests—and so began the notion of National Parks. Later, as science evolved to consider landscapes more holistically, sequoias once again played a major role in shaping this new perspective. Featuring a fascinating cast of adventurers, researchers, politicians, and environmentalists, King Sequoia reveals how one tree species transformed Americans' connection to the natural world.

Chinese Aesthetics by Zong-qi Cai Pdf
This singular work presents the most comprehensive and nuanced studies available in any Western language of Chinese aesthetic thought and practice during the Six Dynasties (A.D. 220–589). Despite a succession of dynastic and social upheavals, the literati preoccupied themselves with both the sensuous and the transcendent and strove for cultural dominance. By the end of the sixth century, their reflections would evolve into a sophisticated system of aesthetic discourse characterized by its own rhetoric and concepts. A prologue details the historical context in which Six Dynasties aesthetics arose and sketches out its major stages of development. The ten essays that follow bring fresh perspectives to bear on important writings on literature, music, painting, calligraphy, and gardening. Grounded in close readings of primary texts, they reveal the complex, dynamic interplay between life and art, the sensuous and the metaphysical, and the artistic and the philosophicaleligious that lies at the heart of the aesthetic thought and practice of the time. As a whole, the collection demonstrates that Six Dynasties achieved a sophistication in aesthetic thought comparable in many ways to that of the West: The discussion of disinterestedness in art, aesthetic judgment, and how mental images mediate between the supersensible and the sensible are reminiscent of Kant. The findings of various Chinese critics provide much food for thought in the broad fields of comparative literature and aesthetics. Chinese Aesthetics will fill a gap in Western sinological studies of the period. It will appeal to scholars and students in premodern Chinese literary studies, comparative aesthetics, and cultural studies and be a welcome reference to anyone interested in ancient Chinese culture.

King of the Trailer Park by Timothy Benson Pdf
Lincoln Carr has a big problem, sort of. Hes the owner of a successful advertising agency, engaged to a beautiful woman, and enjoys the wonderful normalcy of his life in every way. But when he wins a fortune playing the lottery, he quickly realizes his life will never be anything close to normal. He knows large amounts of money can have a strange effect on people, and he also knows his new situation gives him the potential for doing both good and bad things with that money. His winnings, along with his skill in todays media and his love for practical jokes, soon lead him deeper into dark and questionable behaviors. Enjoying the influence that comes with enormous wealth, he sees his pranks escalate into elaborate con games that affect the lives of his friends as well as strangers. Despite his promise to himself to remain grounded and normal, he struggles when his newly acquired power leads him into the political arena and he finds the line between good and bad has become hard to walk. With a cast of colorful characters navigating their way through modern life, King of the Trailer Park offers a darkly humorous look at the new politics of America and the ongoing decline of the culture. Set in todays polarized world where personal information is too easily shared, where the media is seldom questioned, and where perception is sold as reality, this story paints a troubling picture of the road that lies ahead.
