Download or read book Killing and Dying written by Adrian Tomine and published by Drawn & Quarterly. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Killing and Dying is a stunning showcase of the possibilities of the graphic novel medium and a wry exploration of loss, creative ambition, identity, and family dynamics. With this work, Adrian Tomine (Shortcomings, Scenes from an Impending Marriage) reaffirms his place not only as one of the most significant creators of contemporary comics but as one of the great voices of modern American literature. His gift for capturing emotion and intellect resonates here: the weight of love and its absence, the pride and disappointment of family, the anxiety and hopefulness of being alive in the twenty-first century. "Amber Sweet" shows the disastrous impact of mistaken identity in a hyper-connected world; "A Brief History of the Art Form Known as Hortisculpture" details the invention and destruction of a vital new art form in short comic strips; "Translated, from the Japanese" is a lush, full-color display of storytelling through still images; the title story, "Killing and Dying", centers on parenthood, mortality, and stand-up comedy. In six interconnected, darkly funny stories, Tomine forms a quietly moving portrait of contemporary life. Tomine is a master of the small gesture, equally deft at signaling emotion via a subtle change of expression or writ large across landscapes illustrated in full color. Killing and Dying is a fraught, realist masterpiece.

Download or read book Eye of Irene written by Phyliss Shanken and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eye of Irene depicts the adventures of senior citizens who refuse to evacuate Atlantic County during Hurricane Irene in 2011 and how they and the young interlopers who take refuge in their building are impacted by each other. The old folks look backward while wishing for a redo; the young folks seek a crystal ball view. Through a series of mishaps, they meet at the midpoint of their not-so-differing perspectives. The five college-age adults who were kicked out of the Tropicana Hotel, which closed its doors in preparation for the storm, sneak into The Empire condominiums, where they try to avoid detection from the seniors they deem as past their prime. Amidst the frightening sounds of the storm outside, the fun-seekers inside eavesdrop on The Empire residents who, under the threat of potential disaster, search for meaning by confessing intimate secrets and regrets. The behind-the-scene youths gradually absorb bits of wisdom from these aging but experienced grownups. Eye of Irene goes deeper than traditional tales of young people who live "happily-ever-after." With stories about old people, you don't have to guess how the story ends. You travel to yesteryear and beyond to the "ever after" of "happily-ever-after."

Download or read book Indonesia written by International Monetary Fund. Asia and Pacific Dept and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-07-31 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2019 Article IV Consultation discusses that the Indonesian economy performed well in 2018, despite external headwinds, including capital flow reversals. Growth stabilized above 5 percent and inflation eased to around 3 percent. A surge in imports and weak export growth contributed to a higher current account deficit. Growth is projected to remain stable over the medium term. Inflation is expected to remain within the target band and the current account deficit is expected to narrow gradually on lower imports. Risks are tilted to the downside and are mainly external. Reliance on portfolio inflows to finance the twin deficits leaves Indonesia vulnerable to capital flow reversals. Creating quality jobs for the young and growing population to harness Indonesia’s demographic dividend requires a stronger impetus to growth, which has been constrained by structural weaknesses, including low tax revenues, shallow financial markets, and labor and product market rigidities.

This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper assesses the stability of the financial system of the United Kingdom as a whole, not that of individual institutions. Since the last Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP), the U.K. financial system has put the legacy of the crisis behind it and has become stronger and more resilient. This FSAP found the system to be much stronger and thus better able to serve the real economy. Like all systems, the U.K. financial system is exposed to risks. Its position as a global hub exposes the U.K. financial system to global risks. In addition, the uncertainties associated with the possibility of British exit from the EU weigh heavily on the outlook.
