Book excerpt: 'I had been mistaken for him so many times that when I heard he had died it was as if part of myself had died too.' Kevin Thunder grew up with a double - a boy so uncannily like him that they were mistaken for each other at every turn. As children in 1960s Dublin , one lived next to Bram Stoker's house, haunted by an imagined Dracula, the other in the more refined spaces of Palmerston Park. Though divided, like the city itself, by background and class, they shared the same smell, the same looks, and perhaps, as he comes to realize, the same soul. They exchange identities when it suits them, as their lives take them to England and America, and find that taking on another's personality can lead to darker places than either had imagined. Neil Jordan's long-awaited new novel is an extraordinary achievement - a comedy of manners at the same time as a Gothic tragedy, a thriller and an elegy. It offers imaginative entertainment of the highest order.
Download or read book Mistaken Identity written by Asad Haider and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful challenge to the way we understand the politics of race and the history of anti-racist struggle Whether class or race is the more important factor in modern politics is a question right at the heart of recent history’s most contentious debates. Among groups who should readily find common ground, there is little agreement. To escape this deadlock, Asad Haider turns to the rich legacies of the black freedom struggle. Drawing on the words and deeds of black revolutionary theorists, he argues that identity politics is not synonymous with anti-racism, but instead amounts to the neutralization of its movements. It marks a retreat from the crucial passage of identity to solidarity, and from individual recognition to the collective struggle against an oppressive social structure. Weaving together autobiographical reflection, historical analysis, theoretical exegesis, and protest reportage, Mistaken Identity is a passionate call for a new practice of politics beyond colorblind chauvinism and “the ideology of race.”

Book excerpt: Since booze and prohibition have made criminals out of every man in her world, Laurie Burke resolves to find at least one honorable man to fill her life. Convinced that handsome newcomer Daniel Shepherd is connected with her brother's rum-running gang, Laurie quickly scratches his name off her list. Daniel has mixed feelings about returning to the dirty mill town of his youth, but grudgingly agrees to manage his grandfather's drug store until a replacement can be found. The moment he meets Laurie on the windswept bluff overlooking the beach, he knows that if he can earn her love, he might have a reason to stay. But when Laurie pushes him away--for none other than Federal Agent Samuel Brown--Daniel wonders if Laurie really is the upstanding woman he thought her to be. The Strait of Juan de Fuca, just off the beaches of Port Angeles, Washington, was treacherous water for reckless rum-runners—and the agents who tried to catch them. So when she realizes her brother is in danger, romance is the last thing on Laurie's mind. Yet the people she believes she can trust, may not be so honorable after all.

Download or read book Mistaken Identity written by Keith J. Bybee and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2002-07-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it ever legitimate to redraw electoral districts on the basis of race? In its long struggle with this question, the U.S. Supreme Court has treated race-conscious redistricting either as a requirement of political fairness or as an exercise in corrosive racial quotas. Cutting through these contradictory positions, Keith Bybee examines the theoretical foundations of the Court's decisions and the ideological controversy those decisions have engendered. He uncovers erroneous assumptions about political identity on both sides of the debate and formulates new terms on which minority representation can be pursued. As Bybee shows, the Court has for the last twenty years encouraged a division between individualist and group concepts of political identity. He demonstrates convincingly that both individualist and group proponents share the misguided notion that political identity is formed prior to and apart from politics itself. According to Bybee, this "mistaken identity" should be abandoned for a more flexible, politically informed understanding of who the "people" really are. Thus, a misdirected debate will be replaced by a more considered discussion in which the people can speak for themselves, even as the Court speaks on their behalf. Engaged in the politics of minority representation, the Court will be able to help citizens articulate and achieve more fruitful forms of political community.

Book excerpt: In a World of Delicious Deception, One Person Juggles All the Identities Meet Sam - an unassuming, ordinary human being who is about to become an unwitting master of comedic deception and persona-swapping mayhem. It all starts when Sam is mistaken for a notorious crime boss known as "The Artiste" by a bumbling crew of art thieves. Despite Sam's bewildered protests of innocence, the crooks remain convinced their elusive leader is simply playing an elaborate ruse. And just like that, Sam's life of anonymity spirals into a vortex of missed-taken identities courtesy of nosy thugs, rival gangs, undercover snitches, delusional authorities, and more - each group adamantly believing Sam is someone else entirely! To stay one step ahead of the escalating chaos (and painful beatings), Sam has no choice but to lean into the accidental con. What follows is a tour-de-force of increasingly panic-fueled improvisation as Sam juggles a dizzying array of made-up personas - from criminal masterminds to undercover agents to absurdist philosophers - all while desperately trying to safely extract themselves from the mounting insanity. Every chapter brings fresh cases of mistaken identity as the hapless protagonist bungles their way into inadvertently masterminding spectacularly ill-fated crimes. Written with a furiously witty splendor and chockfull of comedic friction between Sam's milquetoast demeanor and the heightened criminal worlds they continuously get embroiled in, this novel is a gut-busting salvo of sharp dialogue, rapid-fire slapstick, and farcical character work. It's a seemingly neverending display of Sam's chameleonic ability to embody new outrageous guises, only for each new ruse to go hysterically haywire. At its core, this laugh-a-minute saga revels in the unbridled chaos that ensues when one poor schmuck becomes the hapless epicenter of increasingly calamitous collisions of mistaken identity. If you crave deliciously silly satire, this audacious tale is your passport to a madcap world where literally no one is who they appear to be - including the entertaining voice narrating it all!

Book excerpt: This is a story of a man who enters a therapeutic relationship for reasons of which he is not sure. All his life, he had chosen not to grandstand his extraordinary dilemma. Rather, he proceeded in isolation, privately designing a way to endure his almost incomprehensible set of circumstances. He struggled alone, researching, networking, looking for answers, explanations, friends, looking for someone to listen, to believe him. When he finally begins therapy for the first time in forty-one years, he initiates the opportunity for his life to take final shape. Together, they learn what it means to listen and to really hear what someone is saying. They learn how it feels to be a man and a woman in a world that isn't always sure what that means. They learn what it means to be tolerated by a society that makes every day living an unimaginable chore. It is a story, ultimately, of acceptance and forgiveness.
