Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's all about fishing in the Top End ... sort of. Come on a fishing trip to the Northern territory with ABC Darwin's Rob Smith, tim Moore and Mario 'McFadge' Faggion as they chart the croc-filled waters of the top End, doing what they do best - telling tall tales, drinking beer, and crapping on - all from the tinny. As one keen fan put it in a warm recommendation, 'the crap you blokes talk on air is the exact crap spoken on my boat.' And this book is full of it - stuffed full of anecdotes about the colourful characters and wild, vibrant landscape of the top End, but more than that, it's a book about mateship, fish, and the elaborate and exaggerated fishing claims that two guys who have been drinking beer all morning might make. And did we mention the fish? there's a lot of them, including Mullet. And a lot of arguing about them.

Download or read book Crepuscular Tales written by Ion Manta and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-05-19 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ion Manta, born in 1940 in Timisoara, Romania, earned his diploma in biology. He also studied painting in the private art studio of Julius Podlipny. From 1963 on he tried his hand as a teacher, graphic designer, actor, and cultural facilitator at the University of Adult Education. In 1969, in the confusion of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, after defecting to Austria, he settled in the US in 1970. In Washington his first job was at the Smithsonian Institute, then Catholic University, and for 22 years at the Federal Government. On the side, he collaborated for years with the VOA, Romanian section. As an artist he exhibited in Romania, then as an American, locally and internationally (American Painters In Paris, France in 1976). Since1998, the author published six books in Romanian. Presently he lives in Silver Spring, Maryland. Melancholy to loneliness, an unrestrained skeptic who at times hides his nostalgia behind a disturbing silence, or withdrawn in distant thoughts, the prose-writer, by detachment and a subtle lan, seems a messenger of midnight. Aurel Sasu, Dictionary of Romanian Writers in The United States and Canada, 2001. A lot of good Romanian literature originates today in America after Mircea Eliade, Ioan Petru Culianu, Matei Calinescu, Virgil Nemoianu, Petru Popescu, Marcel Cornis Pop, Andrei Codrescu, Ion Manta, Andrei Sangeorzannow Liviu Georgescu. Vasile Dan, Arca 2008 One senses at Ion Manta a combination of the experimental and fantastic, or a sort of bizarre very near to the oneiric. Livius Ciocarlie, writer and critic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Brilliant [and] masterly explorations of bitter, terrifying truths” populate this New York Times Editor’s Choice short story collection (The Boston Globe). In her first collection of stories since her PEN/Faulkner-winning The Caprices, Sabina Murray confronts some stark truths about the most intrepid—and brutal—pioneers of the last four millennia. These legendary explorers and settlers are made intimately human as they charge headlong past the boundaries of their worlds to give shape to modern geography, philosophy, and science. . . . As Ferdinand Magellan sets out on his final voyage, he forms an unlikely friendship with a rich scholar who harbors feelings for the captain, but in the end cannot save Magellan from his own greed. Balboa’s peek at the South Sea may never have happened if it wasn’t for his loyal and vicious dog, Leonico, and an unavoidable urge to relieve himself. And Captain Zimri Coffin is plagued by sleepless nights after reading Frankenstein—until his crew rescues two shipwrecked Englishmen who carry rumor of a murderous white whale lurking in the ocean depths. In this volume of “riveting . . . unsettling, lavish stories,” Sabina Murray investigates the complexities of faith, the lure of the unknown, and the elusive mingling of history and legend (O, The Oprah Magazine).

Book excerpt: Henry Hofstadter doesn’t date. When he needs to get laid, he drives out of town, does the deed, and goes home. Maybe ten years ago he’d’ve mocked a guy who preferred canine company to another man’s, but these days his mutt Coco is his best friend and the highlight of his week is hanging out with his nephew. He doesn’t believe in happy endings. And no fairy tale ever began Once upon a time, an arrogant jackass blew me in the storeroom of a lousy club. Math McKinney’s got a lot on his mind. He used to be a charming guy with a little bit of substance; these days he feels more like the guy still standing when everything around him is a smoking ruin. His ex is out of the country for the next year, his daughter thinks she’s his son, and his co-chair on the Committee for the Preservation of Community apparently hates him for, let’s be clear, no apparent reason. (Because that BJ was magnificent. MAGNIFICENT.) Neither of them is looking for a boyfriend. Hell, neither of them is even looking for a one night stand. Yet somehow they keep ending up together and dammed if it doesn’t seem like that’s a sign. Except…fairy tales are for children. Aren’t they?
