Book excerpt: DIVAutumn, 1940--Linda Blanc is found tortured to death in her Gentilly home. New Orleans' Police Sergeant Israel Daggett can't make anything of the black woman's death until a Treasury Agent arrives on the scene. He lets Daggett know that Linda was the girlfriend of a bootlegger-turned counterfeiter, one Luis Martinez. Daggett's first step: find Luis. Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Wesley Farrell is looking for Luis Martinez for his own reasons. Luis is really in hot water. Not only are the cops and Farrell giving chase, but he's on the run from a blonde Spaniard named Santiago Compasso, the boss of the counterfeiting gang. Luis has run off with the key to the operation--the painstakingly constructed plates that produce twenty- and fifty-dollar bills so good they've got the boys at Engraving and Printing jealous. Compasso is worried, not only because his operation is loused up, but because he has someone of his own to answer to.... Now Farrell's in a contest with both the police and Compasso to find his amigo and discover the reason behind the doublcross--if a mysterious unseen assassin doesn't get there ahead of him./div

Download or read book Pale Fire written by Vladimir Nabokov and published by ببلومانيا للنشر والتوزيع. This book was released on 2024-02-18 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American poet John Shade is dead. His last poem, 'Pale Fire', is put into a book, together with a preface, a lengthy commentary and notes by Shade's editor, Charles Kinbote. Known on campus as the 'Great Beaver', Kinbote is haughty, inquisitive, intolerant, but is he also mad, bad - and even dangerous? As his wildly eccentric annotations slide into the personal and the fantastical, Kinbote reveals perhaps more than he should be. Nabokov's darkly witty, richly inventive masterpiece is a suspenseful whodunit, a story of one-upmanship and dubious penmanship, and a glorious literary conundrum.
Download or read book Pale Colors in a Tall Field written by Carl Phillips and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful, inventive collection from one of America’s most critically acclaimed poets. Carl Phillips’s new poetry collection, Pale Colors in a Tall Field, is a meditation on the intimacies of thought and body as forms of resistance. The poems are both timeless and timely, asking how we can ever truly know ourselves in the face of our own remembering and inevitable forgetting. Here, the poems metaphorically argue that memory is made up of various colors, with those most prominent moments in a life seeming more vivid, though the paler colors are never truly forgotten. The poems in Pale Colors in a Tall Field approach their points of view kaleidoscopically, enacting the self’s multiplicity and the difficult shifts required as our lives, in turn, shift. This is one of Phillips’s most tender, dynamic, and startling books yet.
Download or read book White Shadow written by Roy Jacobsen and published by Biblioasis. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The highly anticipated sequel to International Booker and Dublin Impac Award-shortlisted The Unseen No-one can be alone on an island . . . But Ingrid is alone on Barrøy, the island that bears her name, and the war of her childhood has been replaced by a new, more terrible present: the Nazi occupation of Norway. When the bodies from a bombed vessel carrying Russian prisoners of war begin to wash up on the shore, Ingrid can’t know that one will not only be alive, but could be the answer to a lifetime of loneliness—nor can she imagine what suffering she will endure in hiding her lover from the German authorities, or the journey she will face, after being wrenched from her island as consequence for protecting him, to return home. Or especially that, surrounded by the horrors of battle, among refugees fleeing famine and scorched earth, she will receive a gift, the value of which is beyond measure. The highly anticipated follow-up to Roy Jacobsen’s International Booker and Dublin Impac Award-shortlisted The Unseen, a New York Times New and Noteworthy book, White Shadow is a vividly observed exploration of conflict, love, and human endurance.

Download or read book BETWEEN THESE WALLS written by Gino Gammaldi and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2023-09-13 with total page 929 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horror is a genre that relies on one thing: instilling a sense of fear in the reader. The horror genre in this book is multifaceted. There is a particular kind of horror for every kind of person. For some, the most effective scare is the idea of being trapped in a haunted place. For others, it’s a dark mystery, blood and gore or being challenged by a serial killer. The main protagonist in this book is forced to confront all of these curses, ordeals, and calamities in a room that wreaks of torment and situations that cause great suffering and unhappiness the likes of which he has never experienced. The horrors that the protagonist encounters come from the subconscious, cryptic forces and alternate realms; mysterious happenings that manipulate feelings, state of mind and realities that create sensations of uneasiness and fear that stretch beyond consciousness and permeate deep within the human psyche. Most chapters in this book can be read independently of each other.
