Holden Caulfield, the beat writers, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and James Dean—these and other avatars of youthful rebellion were much more than entertainment. As Leerom Medovoi shows, they were often embraced and hotly debated at the dawn of the Cold War era because they stood for dissent and defiance at a time when the ideological production of the United States as leader of the “free world” required emancipatory figures who could represent America’s geopolitical claims. Medovoi argues that the “bad boy” became a guarantor of the country’s anti-authoritarian, democratic self-image: a kindred spirit to the freedom-seeking nations of the rapidly decolonizing third world and a counterpoint to the repressive conformity attributed to both the Soviet Union abroad and America’s burgeoning suburbs at home. Alongside the young rebel, the contemporary concept of identity emerged in the 1950s. It was in that decade that “identity” was first used to define collective selves in the politicized manner that is recognizable today: in terms such as “national identity” and “racial identity.” Medovoi traces the rapid absorption of identity themes across many facets of postwar American culture, including beat literature, the young adult novel, the Hollywood teen film, early rock ‘n’ roll, black drama, and “bad girl” narratives. He demonstrates that youth culture especially began to exhibit telltale motifs of teen, racial, sexual, gender, and generational revolt that would burst into political prominence during the ensuing decades, bequeathing to the progressive wing of contemporary American political culture a potent but ambiguous legacy of identity politics.
After the American Civil War ended, George W. Peck (1840–1916) became a newspaper publisher. His weekly newspaper, "Peck’s Sun," contained Peck’s humorous writings, including his famous semi-autobiographical “Peck’s Bad Boy” stories. Peck died in 1916 at age 75, but his writing continued to win fans for years. The "Peck’s Bad Boy" stories became the basis for several films and a short-lived television show. Included in this volume are: PECK’S BAD BOY AND HIS PA THE GROCERY MAN AND PECK’S BAD BOY PECK’S BAD BOY ABROAD PECK’S BAD BOY WITH THE COWBOYS PECK’S BAD BOY WITH THE CIRCUS PECK’S UNCLE IKE AND THE RED HEADED BOY PECK’S SUNSHINE PECK’S COMPENDIUM OF FUN HOW PRIVATE GEORGE W.

In this thrilling sequel, Gemma continues to pursue her destiny to bind the magic of the Realms and restore it to the Order. Gemma and her friends from Spence use magical power to transport themselves on visits from their corseted world of Victorian London (at the height of the Christmas season), to the visionary country of the Realms, with its strange beauty and menace. There they search for the lost Temple, the key to Gemma's mission, and comfort Pippa, their friend who has been left behind in the Realms. After these visits they bring back magical power for a short time to use in their own world. Meanwhile, Gemma is torn between her attraction to the exotic Kartik, the messenger from the opposing forces of the Rakshana, and the handsome but clueless Simon, a young man of good family who is courting her. This is the second book in Libba Bray's engrossing trilogy, set in a time of strict morality and barely repressed sensuality, about a girl who saw another way.
The first in a sexy new series, Rachelle Vaughn introduces Ryan, Gavin and Coop-three bad-boy heroes who smoothly mix hot hockey action and scorching sex appeal... Security guard Jenna Riley is a quintessential good girl. She works hard, stays out of trouble and keeps the peace in the up-and-coming gated community of Harlequin Hills. Day after day she watches as residents drive in and out of the community in their pricy cars, all the while ignoring her curiosity about their glamorous lives. They are Red Valley's wealthiest and include Ryan Wade, natural goal-scorer for the Razors. He has heartbreaker written all over him and just when Jenna thinks the only glimpse she'll get of the hockey player with the rugged good looks and killer smile is from afar, a cougar-a real-life, fang-bearing wildcat-starts prowling the neighborhood and all hell breaks loose. Ryan proves he has moves off the ice that are just as smooth as the ones he uses at the rink, but Jenna doubts she can fall for someone who keeps everyone pushed so far away. This bad boy's heart is as guarded as the gated community he lives in and half as welcoming. Can Ryan convince her that he's ready for forever? Or will it be the other way around?
