Download or read book Ain t We Got Fun written by Jen Ray and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The large-sized works of the American artist Jen Ray transport their viewers into a surreal universe. The mystical realism of her images is reminiscent of the worlds created by Alejandro Jodorowsky or Moebius or those featured in Japanese manga culture. Jen Ray grew up in a secluded log cabin in the woods of rural South Carolina. The formative influence of this distance to and innocence of the larger world is clearly reflected in the figures in her artwork who are surrounded by a vast, white nothingness. The attractive women in the focus of Jen Ray s signature landscapes represent power and self-determination. The post-apocalyptic scenes set a haunting mood suggestive of a deserted amusement park. Ain t We Got Fun is a collection of new work by Jen Ray, who currently lives in Berlin. The book features an interview with the artist and an essay by curator Robbert Roos.

Download or read book Caleb s War written by Walter Urbanek and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2018-08-19 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caleb's War is a narrative about the tribulations of Sergeant Caleb Johnson, a farmer from the Shenandoah Valley who volunteered to serve in the Stonewall Brigade to stop the Yanks invading eastern Virginia. As Caleb fought at Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, and Gettysburg, the reader will experience the gamut of emotions as he dealt with military and platoon issues and family concerns on the farm. The book is a plethora of information on the Civil War. The reader will learn about the filthy living conditions in camp, weapons, food preparation, diseases, generals, medicine, and terror and chaos of battle. A major theme throughout the book is the overpowering religious convictions of the soldiers, especially those from the South: reading the Bible, praying, and singing hymns such as "Amazing Grace" were common behaviors. Soldiers prayed before and during each battle imploring God to intervene on their behalf. Wounded warriors begged their Lord for forgiveness and end their agony and take them to his kingdom. The reader will gain a unique perspective of the battles as they first experience horrific happenings through the eyes of Sergeant Caleb Johnson, and then they join Union Private Josef Volzek and see what he perceived and underwent. The reader will be drawn into the story and feel what the soldiers endured: fear, bloodshed, smoke, terror, loss, noise, and chaos. Caleb's War is also a testimonial to all veterans. In the annals of warfare, there are no braver warriors than the men and several hundred women who served in the ranks of the Union and Confederacy during the Civil War; their courage and bravery is above reproach. Veterans are the men and women who answered our nation's call during a crisis. They remain a national treasure and merit our profoundest remembrance, respect, and support.

Download or read book A Is for Ox written by Barry Sanders and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1995-09-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twin crises of illiteracy and youth violence haunt our age; the failure of increasing numbers of young people to attain even minimal levels of literacy signals a catastrophe at the deepest levels of our culture. A is for Ox is an important and impassioned work that both proves this conclusion and suggests what can be done to change it. Sanders argues that because of the omnipresence of electronically generated images and sounds in contemporary culture, children grow up lacking the oral experience of language crucial to attaining true literacy; without the technologies of reading and writing, the development of self is stunted. By tracing the long history of literacy in the West, Sanders demonstrates how the culture of electronic media is changing both cognitive development and social interaction. Taking the issue of literacy out of the narrow context of schooling and education, Sanders compels us to consider it in relation to the fundamental issues of both personal identity and a person's unforced consent to the social contract.

Straight from the man, these are the backstage stories that every punk fan will want to hear. Never mind the Sex Pistols, here’s Cheetah Chrome!
