Book excerpt: All Tessa LaRoche wants is to be the most ordinary person on Barrow Island. After a stint in a mental asylum, she's had quite enough of being anything else, thank you very much. But when a commission at her new reporting job forces her into the path of a not-quite-human murder suspect, Tessa finds that the unordinary is not through with her yet. Spirited away by a devilishly charming Nicolai to the Mirror Lands-- a parallel reality manipulated by the immortal Deathless-- Tessa loses one of the most precious tethers to her sanity. In order to reclaim it, she must risk entering The Chaos Circus: a citywide fair where mortals trade years for prizes in vicious attractions from which the Deathless draw their power. But there's a catch: if Tessa can't defeat the Deathless at their own freakish carnival games, she will lose her mind...and Nicolai will lose his life. Forced to rely on one another despite the secrets that come between them, Tessa and Nicolai embark on a dangerous adventure through the deceptively beautiful life of the Circus, where little is as it seems--even the games, their pasts, and the strange whirlwind of memories that Tessa can no longer recall.
Download or read book Chaos Imagined written by Martin Meisel and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories we tell in our attempt to make sense of the world—our myths and religion, literature and philosophy, science and art—are the comforting vehicles we use to transmit ideas of order. But beneath the quest for order lies the uneasy dread of fundamental disorder. True chaos is hard to imagine and even harder to represent. In this book, Martin Meisel considers the long effort to conjure, depict, and rationalize extreme disorder, with all the passion, excitement, and compromises the act provokes. Meisel builds a rough history from major social, psychological, and cosmological turning points in the imagining of chaos. He uses examples from literature, philosophy, painting, graphic art, science, linguistics, music, and film, particularly exploring the remarkable shift in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries from conceiving of chaos as disruptive to celebrating its liberating and energizing potential. Discussions of Sophocles, Plato, Lucretius, Calderon, Milton, Haydn, Blake, Faraday, Chekhov, Faulkner, Wells, and Beckett, among others, are matched with incisive readings of art by Brueghel, Rubens, Goya, Turner, Dix, Dada, and the futurists. Meisel addresses the revolution in mapping energy and entropy and the manifold effect of thermodynamics. He then uses this chaotic frame to elaborate on purpose, mortality, meaning, and mind.

Download or read book Carnival A Novel written by Rawi Hage and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stirring new masterpiece from the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award–winning author of Cockroach and De Niro’s Game. In Carnival, internationally acclaimed author Rawi Hage takes us into the world of Fly, a taxi driver in a crime-ridden apocalyptic metropolis. Raised in the circus, the son of a golden-haired trapeze artist and a flying-carpet man, Fly sees everything, taking in all of the city’s carnivalesque beauty and ugliness as he roves through its dizzying streets in his taxi. Fly is a reader, too, and when he’s not in his taxi he is at home in the equally dizzying labyrinth of books that fills his tiny apartment. His best friend is Otto, a political activist who’s in and out of jails and asylums, mourning his dead wife and lost foster son. On one otherwise tawdry night Fly meets Mary, a book-loving passenger with a domineering husband. So begins a romance that is, for Fly, a brief glimmer of light amid the shadows and grit of the Carnival city. Along with Otto and Mary, Fly introduces us to madmen and revolutionaries, magicians and prostitutes as he picks them up and drops them off, traveling through a nightmarish town that is—we can’t help but notice—a parable for our own debauched, unjust world. Wildly imaginative and darkly ironic, Carnival is a magnificent achievement.

Download or read book A GOOD RAT written by Dandy Ahuruonye and published by Dandyahuruonyebooks.com. This book was released on 2024-08-31 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the shadowy recesses of an attic, where the sun’s rays play hide and seek with the dust of ages, resides a rat of remarkable repute. His name is Budda Brie—a moniker that echoes with the charisma of a fabled hero. “A Good Rat” by Dandy Ahuruonye is a whimsical and enchanting tale that transports readers into a world where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, and the mundane is infused with magic and wonder. Introduction Dandy Ahuruonye’s “A Good Rat” is a delightful narrative that blends fantasy with a touch of reality, creating a story that is both captivating and thought-provoking. The protagonist, Budda Brie, is no ordinary rodent. He is a Groccolli robot, a marvel of whiskered engineering, whose existence defies the mundane laws of rat-dom. With fur as grey as twilight shadows and eyes that sparkle like digital constellations, Budda Brie is a character that leaps off the page and into the reader’s imagination. Review The story unfolds in an ancient attic, a setting that Ahuruonye describes with such vivid detail that one can almost feel the dust motes pirouetting in the slanting sunbeams. This attic is not just a backdrop but a character in itself, filled with forgotten treasures and secrets waiting to be uncovered. It is here that Budda Brie embarks on his adventures, accompanied by his confidant, Giggles McWhisker—a mouse with a penchant for puns and a tail that twitches like a Morse code machine. One of the most memorable aspects of “A Good Rat” is Ahuruonye’s masterful use of language. His prose is rich and lyrical, painting pictures with words that linger in the mind long after the book is closed. For instance, when describing Budda Brie’s love for cheese, Ahuruonye writes: “Budda Brie didn’t nibble; he savoured. Each morsel was a symphony of flavour, a sonnet composed by dairy deities.” Such lines not only add depth to the character but also immerse the reader in the sensory experiences of the story. The relationship between Budda Brie and Giggles McWhisker is another highlight of the book. Their conversations crackle with wit and whimsy, providing both humour and insight. They discuss everything from the weather (“mostly cloudy with a chance of cheese showers”) to philosophy (“whether the moon was made of Gouda or Swiss”), and their banter is a joy to read. Through their interactions, Ahuruonye explores themes of friendship, empathy, and self-awareness, making the story not just entertaining but also meaningful. The plot of “A Good Rat” is filled with delightful escapades and conflicts. One particularly amusing episode is the Cheese Heist Hullabaloo, where the cheddar wedge accuses the brie wheel of favouritism. “You’re always the toast of the party,” grumbles the cheddar, to which the brie retorts, “Well, you’re too sharp for your good.” Such exchanges are peppered throughout the book, adding a layer of humour that will appeal to readers of all ages. But “A Good Rat” is not just about light-hearted fun. It also delves into deeper themes, such as the importance of forgiveness and understanding. In one poignant scene, the old cuckoo clock apologises to the broken teacup, and the moth forgives the spider for stealing its silk. These moments of reconciliation and empathy are beautifully woven into the narrative, making the story resonate on an emotional level. In conclusion, “A Good Rat” by Dandy Ahuruonye is a charming and enchanting tale that will captivate readers with its rich prose, memorable characters, and thought-provoking themes. It is a book that celebrates the magic in the mundane and reminds us of the importance of friendship, empathy, and self-awareness. Whether you are a child or an adult, this story will leave you with a smile on your face and a warmth in your heart. As Budda Brie himself might say, "Emotions are akin to the array of cheeses. Some are sharp, slicing through indifference; others are mellow, soothing the palate of the soul."
