Book excerpt: A sociological study of the emergence of the gay male culture from the explosion of gay liberation in the early 1970s through the beginning of the AIDS crisis of the mid-1980s. The first half of the book is the dissertation of Levine, who based it primarily on field work conducted in Greenwich Village's growing gay community in the late 1970s.

Download or read book The Boys from Brazil written by Ira Levin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic thriller of Dr. Josef Mengele's nightmarish plot to restore the Third Reich. Alive and hiding in South America, the fiendish Nazi Dr. Josef Mengele gathers a group of former colleagues for a horrifying project—the creation of the Fourth Reich. Barry Kohler, a young investigative journalist, gets wind of the project and informs famed Nazi hunter Ezra Lieberman, but before he can relay the evidence, Kohler is killed. Thus Ira Levin opens one of the strangest and most masterful novels of his career. Why has Mengele marked a number of harmless aging men for murder? What is the hidden link that binds them? What interest can they possibly hold for their killers: six former SS men dispatched from South America by the most wanted Nazi still alive, the notorious “Angel of Death“? One man alone must answer these questions and stop the killings—Lieberman, himself aging and thought by some to be losing his grip on reality. At the heart of The Boys from Brazil lies a frightening contemporary nightmare, chilling and all too possible.

Book excerpt: To Kill A Clone describes the machinations of a billionaire microbiologist who creates a doppelganger to foil an assassination plot. His scheme encounters numerous misadventures ranging from a surrogate mother who reneges on her contractual understanding because she developed motherly affection for the cloned child and rejects the billionaire's determination to regain possession of what he views to be a manufactured asset. As the drama unfolds the billionaire has to deal with the duplicity of a previously trusted employee who attempts to dispose of the billionaire and usurp the corporation's immense empire and the clone. After dealing with the traitorous employee the billionaire finds himself in a legal quandary because his manipulations have aroused the suspicions of a female assistant district attorney who is distrustful and feels that the actions of the billionaire and his hirelings are tainted with unlawful and murderous intent. Another unwanted distraction occurs when the clone matures and becomes convinced that he has an original human identity and is not a fabricated appliance. The entire cloning plot becomes unraveled in a district court before a judge who rules that the clone is entitled to protection as required by the constitution. This disastrous turn of events persuades the billionaire to murder and eliminate the clone. The elimination of the clone becomes difficult because of the successful maneuvering of the traitor employee who has persuaded the clone to assume the role of the corporate leader when the billionaire disappeared and is presumed dead. Later it is discovered that the billionaire has avoided the attempt on his life and returns because the original cloning schematic included a calculated premature death for the clone to avoid the possibility of an identity theft by scheming employees. As the misadventures continue the now-emergent billionaire is stunned to learn that he is to be arrested for the murder of the clone. After the billionaire reveals the cloning procedure to his attorney they meet with the prosecutors and explain that the clone's calculated maturation was intended to include a timely death. Later the billionaire's defense attorney wins a ruling from the Court of Appeals to quash the indictment on the grounds that there is no evidence that a crime has been committed. The Court of Appeals remands the case to the State District Court to evaluate the merits of the indictment. Nevertheless the Assistant District Attorney want to solve the puzzle of whether the cadaver is the real billionaire or the clone. She enlists the aid of an expert to establish the genetic identity of the cadaver and the merits of the murder indictment. Arrangements are made to have the cadaver cryogenically preserved until the indictment is resolved. While these events are under negotiation it was discovered that the surrogate mother had given birth to twins and the twin brother had been secretly transported to friendly relatives in Nova Scotia where his birth records and identity were concealed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clone Wars are over, but for those with reason to run from the new galactic Empire, the battle to survive has only just begun. . . . The Jedi have been decimated in the Great Purge, and the Republic has fallen. Now the former Republic Commandos-the galaxy's finest special forces troops, cloned from Jango Fett-find themselves on opposing sides and in very different armor. Some have deserted and fled to Mandalore with the mercenaries, renegade clone troopers, and rogue Jedi who make up Kal Skirata's ragtag resistance to Imperial occupation. Others-including men from Delta and Omega squads-now serve as Imperial Commandos, a black ops unit within Vader's own 501st Legion, tasked to hunt down fugitive Jedi and clone deserters. For Darman, grieving for his Jedi wife and separated from his son, it's an agonizing test of loyalty. But he's not the only one who'll be forced to test the ties of brotherhood. On Mandalore, clone deserters and the planet's own natives, who have no love for the Jedi, will have their most cherished beliefs challenged. In the savage new galactic order, old feuds may have to be set aside to unite against a far bigger threat, and nobody can take old loyalties for granted.

Book excerpt: This debut sci-fi novel by the Nebula and Locus Award–winning author of The Shore of Women follows five human clones in an unforgiving world. Shock and outrage greet Paul Swenson’s announcement of the success of his latest and most controversial scientific endeavor. Having taken advantage of a brief lull in legislative restrictions, the renowned astrophysicist and a team of bioscientists have created five human clones—four males and one female—from Swenson’s own genetic material. From the moment Michael, Edward, Albert, James, and Kira Swenson are revealed to the world, they are viewed with hostility and suspicion. Growing up under the heavy yoke of specialness, the five exceptional human “experiments” have no one but each other to turn to for emotional support. Then tragedy strikes and everything falls apart . . . Now Kira and her brothers must follow their destinies down separate, divergent paths. Heading out into a world that never welcomed them, each clone is intent on pursuing knowledge, career, family—all the desired elements of a so-called normal life. But they cannot escape their shared past, because the true purpose behind Paul Swenson’s remarkable achievement remains shrouded in shadow. And his children are prepared to travel to the ends of the Earth and beyond for an answer to the question that has always haunted them: Why were we made?
