Download or read book Columbus and Other Cannibals written by Jack D. Forbes and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrated American Indian thinker Jack D. Forbes’s Columbus and Other Cannibals was one of the founding texts of the anticivilization movement when it was first published in 1978. His history of terrorism, genocide, and ecocide told from a Native American point of view has inspired America’s most influential activists for decades. Frighteningly, his radical critique of the modern "civilized" lifestyle is more relevant now than ever before. Identifying the Western compulsion to consume the earth as a sickness, Forbes writes: "Brutality knows no boundaries. Greed knows no limits. Perversion knows no borders. . . . These characteristics all push towards an extreme, always moving forward once the initial infection sets in. . . . This is the disease of the consuming of other creatures’ lives and possessions. I call it cannibalism." This updated edition includes a new chapter by the author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Under the Cannibal Curse It was such a little cage, with wooden sides and thick black bars that let scarcely one ray of sunlight into the musty interior. For a moment, coming in from the brightness outside, I was blinded and could see nothing, only my nostrils twitched at a familiar smell. Then my eyes grew accustomed to the gloom and I peered through the bars of the cage. Inside, huddled forlornly together, their eyes blinking in wistful appeal, were two chimpanzees. So these were the 'Wild Beasts of the Jungle' I had in my curiosity paid a centime to see, beasts whose brothers only a few months before had been my companions in their native haunts where cages and civilization were unknown, where life was lived as Nature had ordained it should be, free as the air, without clothes or laws or restrictions. How miserable these little captives looked, shut in their narrow cage, doomed to be stared at and laughed over by unsympathetic spectators for the rest of their lives! How they must miss their forest life! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Cannibal written by Safiya Sinclair and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2016-09 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colliding with and confronting The Tempest and postcolonial identity, the poems in Safiya Sinclair's Cannibal explore Jamaican childhood and history, race relations in America, womanhood, otherness, and exile. She evokes a home no longer accessible and a body at times uninhabitable, often mirrored by a hybrid Eve/Caliban figure. Blooming with intense lyricism and fertile imagery, these full-blooded poems are elegant, mythic, and intricately woven. Here the female body is a dark landscape; the female body is cannibal. Sinclair shocks and delights her readers with her willingness to disorient and provoke, creating a multitextured collage of beautiful and explosive poems.
Download or read book Bones All written by Camille DeAngelis and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a major motion picture from Luca Guadagnino starring Taylor Russell, Timothée Chalamet and Mark Rylance, screenplay by David Kajganich! Maren Yearly is a young woman who wants the same things we all do. She wants to be someone people admire and respect. She wants to be loved. But her secret, shameful needs have forced her into exile. She hates herself for the bad thing she does, for what it's done to her family and her sense of identity, for how it dictates her place in the world and how people see her--how they judge her. She didn't choose to be this way. Because Maren Yearly doesn't just break hearts, she devours them. Ever since her mother found Penny Wilson's eardrum in her mouth when Maren was just two years old, she knew life would never be normal for either of them. Love may come in many shapes and sizes, but for Maren, it always ends the same--with her hiding the evidence and her mother packing up the car. But when her mother abandons her the day after her sixteenth birthday, Maren goes looking for the father she has never known, and finds much more than she bargained for along the way. Faced with a world of fellow eaters, potential enemies, and the prospect of love, Maren realizes she isn't only looking for her father, she's looking for herself.

Download or read book The Curse written by Ryan Green and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1894, Leonarda Cianciulla was born into an abusive household. As a young girl, she attempted suicide twice to rid herself of the misery. After decades of abuse, Leonarda sought stability and married Raffaele Pansardi. Her mother did not approve and conveyed her anger in the strongest possible sense. She cursed the marriage. Leonarda believed that her mother's words had power and they haunted her for the rest of her life. Following the curse, Leonarda experienced fits and seizures, was imprisoned for fraud, lost her home to an earthquake, had three miscarriages and lost ten children due to ill health in their youth. Her fears were exacerbated when she visited a Romani fortune teller who informed her, 'In one hand I can see prison. In the other, a mental asylum.' In 1939, Leonarda's eldest son, Giuseppe, informed her that he was going to join the Army. As one of only four remaining children, she needed to protect him at all costs. She decided that the only way to do that was through the most extreme means - human sacrifice. The Curse is a chilling account of one of the most brutal and bizarre true crime stories in history. Ryan Green's riveting narrative draws the reader into the real-live horror experienced by the victims and has all the elements of a classic thriller. CAUTION: This book contains descriptive accounts of abuse and violence. If you are especially sensitive to this material, it might be advisable not to read any further.
