Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A richly illustrated cultural history of the midcentury pulp paperback "There is real hope for a culture that makes it as easy to buy a book as it does a pack of cigarettes."—a civic leader quoted in a New American Library ad (1951) American Pulp tells the story of the midcentury golden age of pulp paperbacks and how they brought modernism to Main Street, democratized literature and ideas, spurred social mobility, and helped readers fashion new identities. Drawing on extensive original research, Paula Rabinowitz unearths the far-reaching political, social, and aesthetic impact of the pulps between the late 1930s and early 1960s. Published in vast numbers of titles, available everywhere, and sometimes selling in the millions, pulps were throwaway objects accessible to anyone with a quarter. Conventionally associated with romance, crime, and science fiction, the pulps in fact came in every genre and subject. American Pulp tells how these books ingeniously repackaged highbrow fiction and nonfiction for a mass audience, drawing in readers of every kind with promises of entertainment, enlightenment, and titillation. Focusing on important episodes in pulp history, Rabinowitz looks at the wide-ranging effects of free paperbacks distributed to World War II servicemen and women; how pulps prompted important censorship and First Amendment cases; how some gay women read pulp lesbian novels as how-to-dress manuals; the unlikely appearance in pulp science fiction of early representations of the Holocaust; how writers and artists appropriated pulp as a literary and visual style; and much more. Examining their often-lurid packaging as well as their content, American Pulp is richly illustrated with reproductions of dozens of pulp paperback covers, many in color. A fascinating cultural history, American Pulp will change the way we look at these ephemeral yet enduringly intriguing books.

Book excerpt: “Suspenseful parallel lesbian love stories deftly illuminate important events in LGBTQ history” in the New York Times–bestselling author’s YA novel (Kirkus Reviews). In 1955, eighteen-year-old Janet Jones keeps the love she shares with her best friend Marie a secret. It’s not easy being gay in Washington, DC, in the age of McCarthyism, but when she discovers a series of books about women falling in love with other women, it awakens something in Janet. As she juggles a romance she must keep hidden and a newfound ambition to write and publish her own story, she risks exposing herself—and Marie—to a danger all too real. Sixty-two years later, Abby Zimet can’t stop thinking about her senior project and its subject—classic 1950s lesbian pulp fiction. Between the pages of her favorite book, the stresses of Abby’s own life are lost to the fictional hopes, desires, and tragedies of the characters she’s reading about. She feels especially connected to one author, a woman who wrote under the pseudonym “Marian Love,” and becomes determined to track her down and discover her true identity. In this novel told in dual narratives, New York Times–bestselling author Robin Talley weaves together the lives of two young women connected across generations through the power of words. A stunning story of bravery, love, how far we’ve come and how much farther we have to go.

Download or read book Black Pulp written by Brooks E. Hefner and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2021-12-21 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deep dive into mid-century African American newspapers, exploring how Black pulp fiction reassembled genre formulas in the service of racial justice In recent years, Jordan Peele’s Get Out, Marvel’s Black Panther, and HBO’s Watchmen have been lauded for the innovative ways they repurpose genre conventions to criticize white supremacy, celebrate Black resistance, and imagine a more racially just world—important progressive messages widely spread precisely because they are packaged in popular genres. But it turns out, such generic retooling for antiracist purposes is nothing new. As Brooks E. Hefner’s Black Pulp shows, this tradition of antiracist genre revision begins even earlier than recent studies of Black superhero comics of the 1960s have revealed. Hefner traces it back to a phenomenon that began in the 1920s, to serialized (and sometimes syndicated) genre stories written by Black authors in Black newspapers with large circulations among middle- and working-class Black readers. From the pages of the Pittsburgh Courier and the Baltimore Afro-American, Hefner recovers a rich archive of African American genre fiction from the 1920s through the mid-1950s—spanning everything from romance, hero-adventure, and crime stories to westerns and science fiction. Reading these stories, Hefner explores how their authors deployed, critiqued, and reassembled genre formulas—and the pleasures they offer to readers—in the service of racial justice: to criticize Jim Crow segregation, racial capitalism, and the sexual exploitation of Black women; to imagine successful interracial romance and collective sociopolitical progress; and to cheer Black agency, even retributive violence in the face of white supremacy. These popular stories differ significantly from contemporaneous, now-canonized African American protest novels that tend to represent Jim Crow America as a deterministic machine and its Black inhabitants as doomed victims. Widely consumed but since forgotten, these genre stories—and Hefner’s incisive analysis of them—offer a more vibrant understanding of African American literary history.

Download or read book Broadswords and Blasters Issue 12 written by Cameron Mount and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-01-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First up is J. Rohr's "Riding the Rails," a story he claims he had to rewrite from memory after a catastrophic file failure. Well, that one may have been good, but this alternate history-of a world we know but besieged by monsters of myth and legend-is great. Returning author Richard L. Rubin gives us another two-fisted retro sci-fi tale in "Commander Saturn and the Air Bandit of Mars." And DJ Tyrer brings back his acclaimed Nyssa of Abanos for her second (and Tyrer's third!) appearance in B&B-this time in "Journey to Mount Argaeas." In Kristen Reid's "American Appetite," Connor Wescott comes across some deserters with a strange sort of hunger. Yes you read the title of the next story correctly, "Callahan and the Bomb Squid." Laughs are few and far between in our pages, but every once in awhile we get a cracker like Jonathon Mast's, so savor it. Because S. Gepp's "No Stand" will knock that laughter right out of your belly with this gut-punch of a hard-boiled Western. Ben Serna-Grey dropped his weird-ass "Smoke and Hamsters" in our laps and cackled with glee as he then shat in a bucket and tried to get cash for it. That'll make perfect sense once you read this thing. We love it. Ready for more gut-punches? Hope so, because "The Drive Home" is about as pure and depressing a noir tale as we've ever published. Be safe driving, dear readers. "The DSD" by E.G. Thompson is a dual-pronged narrative set in a dying and dangerous frontier after the fall of civilization, and the stories herein can't all end on downers (though they damn sure tried!), so here's your happy ending. You'll need it. "Crowbait" by T.L. Simpson traces the line between vengeance and justice, with a clear emphasis that the former may cause more problems than just accepting your grief and moving on. Andrew Miller sent us this noir tale about a "Shootout at Namaste Mart" and the title alone almost sold one editor on the story. "Spaceman and Freakshow" by Roger H. Stone had a similar effect, and we think the stories do both of these titles justice. Longtime supporter and just all-around great writer Steve DuBois hit us with another tale of supreme oddity in his "The Professionals" about-well, his November 19th tweet says it better than we can- "magically-enhanced urban professionals escorting a Kennedy baby to the ruins of Dallas for inauguration as God-Emperor." Next up is "Aces and Rogues" by Anthony Pinkett, a two-fisted dogfighting space actioner that we both said we'd be "stupid not to publish." "Don't Let the Law Hit Ya Where the Good Lord Split Ya" is a mouthful of a title that came off Russell W. Johnson's keyboard, but it sure is an apt one for the crime story he sent in. After that we've got "Starstruck" by Kristen Brand, a sci-fi tale of solar guardsmen, mixed loyalties, and, ultimately, duty. Scott Forbes Crawford's "A Lone Man Is No Warrior" traces the story of a man who lost a king and his own warrior nature only to be spurred back to it by a woman's attempted murder of his boss. Lastly, we have Matt Spencer's "The Radiant Abyss." We've been blessed to have some stalwart supporters over the three years of the magazine's existence, and Spencer is the first and perhaps staunchest of those. It just so happens he writes stories we like, too.

Download or read book Modern Technology of Pulp Paper and Paper Conversion Industries written by NIIR Board of Consultants and Engineers and published by ASIA PACIFIC BUSINESS PRESS Inc.. This book was released on 2004-08-07 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper conversion sectors are assuming increasingly important place in the life of every nation. Conversion technology is being evolved continuously for having better conversion, handling, transportation, preservation and usage of materials. Paper and Pulp industry plays a vital role towards conversion. Pulping is a process of delignification removing lignin from wood while leaving cellulose fibres intact. Pulp and paper can be produced from many resources like; Eta Reed, bamboo, bagasse, elephant grass, etc. Growing population and increased demand of paper products has created raw material shortage all over the world especially in developing countries. Consequently agricultural residues and farm wastes are the only hope for further pulp papermaking in these countries. However, technology is evolving that holds promise for using waste or recycled paper and, in some cases, even plastics to make an array of high performance composite products that are in themselves potentially recyclable. Pulp and paper industry is one of the largest industries in India today, which consumes huge quantity of water. As the product does not contain any water most of the water used in the process reappears as waste. Therefore the waste water is used in crop irrigation which will solve both problems i.e. industrial waste solution and irrigation. The Indian paper industry has close linkages with economic growth as higher industrial output leads to increased demand for industrial paper for packaging, increased marketing spend benefits the newsprint and value added segments, and increased education and office activities increase demand for writing and printing paper. It is estimated that there is an economic growth of 8.5% for India which will benefit the demand for paper. The major contents of the book are dry process hard boards from recycled newsprint paper fibres, abrasive kraft base paper from sun hemp (crotolaria jauncia), production of soda semi chemical pulp from sesbania sesban (linn.) merr., high yield pulps from eta reed, the influence of clay addition on flotation deinking, alternative uses for waste/paper in wood based composite products, deinking of flexo graphic newsprint: use of ultra filtration to close the water loop etc. This book also consists of alkaline pulping chemistry, manufacturers, suppliers of plant & machinery and allied products, manufacturers and suppliers of raw materials, imported pulp manufacturers & suppliers imported pulp, Indian agents for imported pulp etc. In view of the close linkage between paper and conversion industry we have tried to come out with this unique book containing relevant and useful information in both these industries. We have tried to make it most exhaustive first giving details, then presenting and dividing in different chapter to understand better. Thus we have tried to fill the vacuum that existed fill now. This book will be useful for paper chemists as well as conversion industries.
