Book excerpt: Result! Deer found shot dead in the hospital car park, along with his sidekick Pete the Sleaze. Don’t have to worry about them anymore… except my fingerprints are all over Deer’s house. Still good news, though. However, that don’t mean I can give up looking for my little brother. Homeless kids have been disappearing from the streets, and the police aren’t doing a thing about it. I’m not entirely sure, but I don’t think that situation and Josh going missing are connected. I think Dad sold Josh because he owes money to Charlie Farthin. Now Dad and Rosie have legged it. Obviously, he didn’t get enough. First time I met Gilbert, he’s Charlie’s number one thug, he tortured me, trying to find out where Dad had gone. When he realised I didn’t know, he gave me a hundred quid and told me I could meet Mister Farthin. Said Mister Farthin would be a good friend to have. I’m not so sure. Anyway, I don’t want to bore you. If you want to know what happens, you’ll have to buy the book. Gift from a Fat Fairy: A New Adult Thriller. Jacob Manners is a fifteen-year-old juvenile delinquent, a hooligan. The education system has failed him, and his father and stepmother are abusers. His peers are the Castle Gang, a group of kids with similar outlooks. He reaches a crossroads when he and his eleven-year-old brother ridicule a local gay man. (Michael Deer, someone not to be messed with, says Mo. Never let him corner you.) Jacob is cornered! Then his brother disappears. Fear of getting a reputation for being gay stops him from reporting the assault, and he sets out alone to find Josh. There is no getting away from the fact that Jake isn’t the brightest kid on the block, and he isn’t as streetwise as he’d like to think. As he gets deeper into his search, he gets a glimpse of his future. Unless he changes direction, this is the life awaiting him. He also meets new characters, discovers a world outside his circle, and begins questioning his way of life. His perspective of the world as he sees it is funny, sad, and often ridiculous. His descriptions of his peers and others he meets are simply outrageous, but he doesn’t know who to trust, and invariably, he trusts the wrong people. Jake Arnott is a similar writer. Centrepoint Almost 30,000 young people are facing homelessness this year. Gift from a Fat Fairy is set among these struggling individuals, who have feelings, hopes, and dreams, just like you and me. Quite often, they just need a ‘leg up’. With this in mind, a portion of the royalties from sales of Gift from a Fat Fairy will go towards supporting this kind charity, Centrepoint.

Download or read book The Fairy Pastoral written by William Percy and published by Anaphora Literary Press. This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pastoral satire about homicidal women- and men-haters being forced into marriage. A standard “Shakespearean” comedy takes a group of youths who are attracted to those who are not interested in them, and regroups them by the conclusion into neat pairings of three or four marriages. In contrast, Fairy Pastoral appears to have been censored because the men in the pairings are wooing their intended partners from the beginning, while the women are homicidally opposed to marriage and prove to the men how much they hate them during the plot, only for them all to be forced into four marriages that all of them are miserable in by the resolution. The setting is the Forest of Elvida inhabited by a kingdom of fairies. Events open with a power-transfer from Princess Hypsiphyle to Prince Orion over accusations of mismanagement. Then, the Princess attempts to regain power across the competitive hunt the Court undertakes. Political and romantic tensions are repeatedly interrupted with slap-stick comedy of Schoolmaster Sir David trying to teach literature while his rear-end is showing, he is falling asleep, and in rare instances when he manages to relate a coherent lecture, the students fail to comprehend his meaning. This is a satire not only on the miseries that accompany forced-marriage, but also about the failures of pedagogic institutions, and irrational transfers of political power through subterfuge and sexism. “Ably presented by Professor Anna Faktorovich, Fairy Pastoral… will have a very special appeal to students and academicians with an interest in Elizabethan era pastoral plays and satiric dramas… Highly recommended for academic library literary fiction and drama collections… [and] for the personal reading lists of students, academia, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject”. —Midwest Book Review, James Cox, July 2022 “The Fairy Pastoral and ‘Songs’ is an inherently fascinating study that will have special and particular appeal for readers with an interest in Shakespeare, Elizabethan Drama, and the Shakespeare/Percy controversy. Highly recommended for personal, professional, community, and academic library Literary Criticism collections.” —Midwest Book Review, Susan Bethany, August 2022 Plot and Staging Text Terms, References, Questions, Exercises “Songs” from MS 509 (1636)

Book excerpt: Eggmen and Emeralds The Gentiles tried to confound the followers of the prophet after they tarred and feathered him in Missouri and murdered him in Illinois. The Lehmanites and the Sons of Seth came to our aid by the glory of God even though we had slandered them, and the nation of the Latter-Day Saints was arisen. The Mormon Ascendancy The Mormon ascendancy, whereby they settle California, only occurs on time lines where a variety of unlikely events all occur. Chief among these unlikely events is the rise of a colored man (a person of partially African descent), James Douglas, to the post of governor-general of the Pacific Northwest colonies of the British Empire. He was not only their first governor-general but also their founder, having first founded the colony of Vancouver Island with a fort and townsite at Victoria. Later, he founded the mainland colony of British Columbia as well. Hughy Rough Shanks and the Virgins The legend of Hughy and the maidens was known on all the worlds of men. The story varied from ribald drinking songs on one world to serious religious stories on another, but the legend was always essentially the same. The aliens had intended to destroy earth, but before they had done so, Hughy and the virgins had spread human beings far and wide to other stars. In doing so, they frightened the aliens so badly that they had moved far away from the contagion. Here we have the story of Hughy Rough Shanks and the maidens and how they saved mankind.
