A family feud of galactic proportions threatens everyone. Windy LeGuin gets a chance to stop a galactic war before it even begins. She volunteers to deliver a critical packet, ensuring that the Royalists cannot revive the galactic throne. She fails. It’s not even close. Cherryh Pariah, her own roommate, cheerfully betrays her, shoving her into an escape pod with nothing but coffee and donuts. At least the donuts were fresh. Drifting in deep space, her air running out, Windy must find a way to rescue herself, recover that packet, and strangle Cherryh at first opportunity. From these humble beginnings, a new power will arise: the Tomato Pirates, a ragtag crew of democratic desperadoes, following Cherryh Pariah, a captain so self-serving that nobody trusts her, not even with donuts. This title collects Never Trust a Pariah, Donuts or Bust, and Grand Theft Battleship.
Demonstrates how the campaign against "victim politics" and the "victim mentality" has profoundly altered Americans' understanding of victimhood, and investigates the consequences of this change in politics, law, culture, and the "war against terror."
The first major collection of poetry written in English by the flabbergasting and flamboyant Baroness Elsa, “the first American Dada.” As a neurasthenic, kleptomaniac, man-chasing proto-punk poet and artist, the Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven left in her wake a ripple that is becoming a rip—one hundred years after she exploded onto the New York art scene. As an agent provocateur within New York's modernist revolution, “the first American Dada” not only dressed and behaved with purposeful outrageousness, but she set an example that went well beyond the eccentric divas of the twenty-first century, including her conceptual descendant, Lady Gaga. Her delirious verse flabbergasted New Yorkers as much as her flamboyant persona. As a poet, she was profane and playfully obscene, imagining a farting God, and transforming her contemporary Marcel Duchamp into M'ars (my arse). With its ragged edges and atonal rhythms, her poetry echoes the noise of the metropolis itself. Her love poetry muses graphically on ejaculation, orgasm, and oral sex. When she tired of existing words, she created new ones: “phalluspistol,” “spinsterlollipop,” “kissambushed.” The Baroness's rebellious, highly sexed howls prefigured the Beats; her intensity and psychological complexity anticipates the poetic utterances of Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath. Published more than a century after her arrival in New York, Body Sweats is the first major collection of Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven's poems in English. The Baroness's biographer Irene Gammel and coeditor Suzanne Zelazo have assembled 150 poems, most of them never before published. Many of the poems are themselves art objects, decorated in red and green ink, adorned with sketches and diagrams, presented with the same visceral immediacy they had when they were composed.
Nobody ever before said this harsh, cruel truth on immigration. Nobody ever before showed the suffering of these refugees (they are nothing but) who leave a South oppressed by hunger and misery for a North blind to exploitation and abuse of the weak. Carlos de Miguel Antnez. Lawyer. Illegal
This book examines reactions to the Russian Revolution by four little magazines of the teens and twenties (The Liberator, The Messenger, The Little Review, and The Dial) in order to analyze some of the ways modernist writers negotiate the competing demands of aesthetics, political commitment and race. Re-examining interconnections among such superficially disparate phenomena as the Harlem Renaissance, Greenwich Village bohemianism, modernism and Leftist politics, this book rightly emphasizes the vitality of little magazines and argues for their necessary place in the study of modernism.
The Big Red Dog: American Mistrust of Russians exposes the dual realities that exist in the United States today: the reality experienced by Russian Americans and the one experienced by everyone else. Without mincing words, author William Lachowsky exposes the deep prejudice in the United States—and around the world—towards those with Russian heritage. Drawing on his own personal experience as a United States-born American with Russian heritage, Lachowsky shares examples of the bigotry he has experienced, including being assaulted and almost killed outside of his apartment. He then explores the political history of this discrimination over the last 150 years and provides examples of how this deep-rooted bias has permeated American culture, the media, and Hollywood. The Big Red Dog is a thought-provoking examination of why a nation has come to think of a whole ethnic group as “other” and the “enemy,” and it is a good reminder to us all to not fall victim to propaganda or stereotypes. It is also a book that every Russian American should read to help them understand that they are not alone in what they are experiencing. Made ever more relevant by the Russia-Ukraine war and an era of biased reporting in many media outlets, this book is a warning about what can happen in society when people become conditioned to believe they are better than other groups and give up thinking for themselves.
Action and Appearance is a collection of essays that look into the crucial and complex link between action and appearance in Hannah Arendt's political thought.Contributed by respected scholars, the essays articulate around the following themes: the emergence of political action when questioning the nature of law, subjectivity and individuality; the relationship between ethics and politics; the nexus of (co-)appearance, thinking and truth; and Arendt's writing as action and appearance. For Arendt, action is a worldly, public phenomenon that requires the presence of others to have any effect. Therefore, to act is more than to decide as it is also to appear. Much has been said about Arendt's theory of action, but little attention has been paid to her approach to appearance as is done in this volume.Action and Appearance explores both Arendt's familiar texts and previously unpublished or recently rediscovered texts to challenge the established readings of her work. Adding to established debates, it will be a unique resource to anyone interested in Hannah Arendt, political thought, political theory, and political philosophy.
