The book is entitled The Calyx. The title is an acronym of sorts for the words Canadian Lynx, which in turn serve as a pun for the words Canadian Links. Readers will meet Jed, a Canadian oilrig driller and his antagonizing compatriots who became the links in discovering the truth behind what really happened to Lee Harvey Oswald, on the day he was shot, in Dallas, Texas, 1963. The setting crosses two borders and journeys throughout Canada, the U.S., Cuba and a tiny island, off the coast of Cuba, called Juventud. The plot introduces new medicine, new politics and new methods of making friends and love. It celebrates topics of respect, trust (or lack thereof) and a unique appreciation for the relationships that rise and fall between man and woman and man and nature. Numerous figures of speech permeate the script. A recurring cat motif aids the understanding of theme and a simple but effective drug, used and administered by an innovative 'risk taking' doctor, helps in understanding the meaning of the title. After all, a Canadian Lynx is a cat that possesses unique characteristics just as the Canadian link, Jed, possesses insights and instincts about people that play and have played a significant role in making and 'shaping' history. The Calyx is a book that ventures outside the box. If anybody has ever had doubts about anything, The Calyx is a must read! There is no doubt about it!
Powerful poems about Cambodia, awakening from the killing fields to the dawn of free elections.
The extraordinary array of images included in this volume reveals the full and rich history of the Middle Ages. Exploring material objects from the European, Byzantine and Islamic worlds, the book casts a new light on the cultures that formed them, each culture illuminated by its treasures. The objects are divided among four topics: The Holy and the Faithful; The Sinful and the Spectral; Daily Life and Its Fictions, and Death and Its Aftermath. Each section is organized chronologically, and every object is accompanied by a penetrating essay that focuses on its visual and cultural significance within the wider context in which the object was made and used. Spot maps add yet another way to visualize and consider the significance of the objects and the history that they reveal. Lavishly illustrated, this is an appealing and original guide to the cultural history of the Middle Ages.
