C'est auprès de sa grand-mère, un personnage hors du commun, que le jeune homme tente de se reconstruire et de résoudre le mystère de ses origines, que sa mère, muette et internée en hôpital psychiatrique, n'a jamais pu lui révéler. Embauché par un baron de l'alcool clandestin dont le monopole se trouve menacé, il va devoir déjouer la surveillance des agents fédéraux tout en affrontant les fantômes du passé... Entre les courses automobiles illégales, les pasteurs qui prêchent avec des serpents venimeux dans les mains, les coutumes et croyances d'un endroit reculé au début des années cinquante, c'est tout un univers que fait revivre Taylor Brown dans ce roman haletant qui rappelle Donald Ray Pollock et Tom Franklin.

Book excerpt: This study of Catullus' Poem of Attis examines the peculiar rites belonging to the mysteries of Cybele and Attis and concentrates on the initiation of the Attispriest. Hardly any other religious rites seems so unfathomable to ordinary human behaviour than the self-castration of the priesthood associated to the Phrygian goddess Cybele and her consort Attis. This rise coincides with the myths, where Attis seized by frenzy, castrates himself. The motif was popular in Classical Antiquity and the most detailed and elaborated depiction is Catullus' Carmen LXIII, the Poem of Attis. Catullus here describes a vivid realization of an ecstatic religion from an empathic and penetrating psychological viewpoint. behaviour of the Attispriests, which reflect certain implications of a special religious concept, apparent and comprehensible for the passionate devotee. Catullus' Poem of Attis has the ambition to uncover the intention of the rite and the position of liminality which obviously were concerned with the way to salvation. This way was for the Attispriests to unman their bodies from the utter abhorrence of love.

Download or read book Arktos written by Joscelyn Godwin and published by Adventures Unlimited Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Arktos is the first book ever written on the archetype of the Poles: celestial and terrestrial, North and South. It is a hair-raising voyage through cosmology, occultism and conspiracy theory leads to startling revelations about the secrets of the Poles. The author investigates legends of a Golden Age, which some claim ended in a prehistoric catastrophe, a shift in the earth's axis. This is examined in the light of the latest geological theories, as are predictions of a coming pole-shift. The perennial fascination of these ideas is shown to be part of a "polar tradition" of hidden wisdom. There are many recorded tales of an ancient race said to have lived in the Arctic regions, which later spread through the Northern Hemisphere. This supposedly "Aryan Race" entered the pantheon of Nazi Germany, with dreadful consequences. The author examines the origins of modern neo-Nazi ideology, its "polar" inspiration, and its links with other arcana, including the survival of Hitler, German bases in Antarctica, UFOS, the Hollow Earth, and the hidden kingdoms of Agartha and Shambhala. However, "Arktos" differs from most writings on these subjects in its responsible and scholarly treatment, and its extensive use of foreign-language sources."--Provided by publisher.
