Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Bradley Maniopolos has problems.Spiritual Sedona plays host to them. When attendees at the 'Neo-Anthropocentric Models of Retrospective Freedoms' colloquium arrive in Sedona, they become facilitator Bradley Maniopolos's problem. Scholarly debate immediately devolves into who has freedom, who doesn't, who's getting it, who confers it, who assumes it, who guarantees it, and why the hell any of it matters. All while, pontificating on stolen land.But Bradley has problems of his own. Looming retirement. His identity. Personal issues of a private nature he'd rather not talk about. Too bad his best friend can't keep his mouth shut, and the billionaire benefactors are keeping tabs through social media. In the tradition of Catch-22, A Confederacy of Dunces, and The Sellout, Wrequiem at the Red Rocks makes you laugh until you see yourself. Then you cry. It's not art that wins universal praise, but in the brutalist tradition, the satire is functional and effective in exposing the hypocrisies we flawed humans depend on-and vociferously deny.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu.

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 350 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | America's global ambitions are reduced to one father, his daughter, and the two men who seek to reunite them. The unflinching story of an American-Arab's life in limbo. Tricked by the two people closest to him, Elias Haddad leaves his beloved daughter Cheryl Halia for what he believes is a short trip home to Syria to visit his dying father. Largely ignorant of Middle East politics, Elias is detained upon arrival in Damascus and conscripted into Assad's army, beginning a forty-year geopolitical odyssey from hell which culminates in his captivity in Guantanamo during America's post-9/11 War on Terror. In her search for her father, Cheryl meets John Veranda, an idealistic lawyer who risks his family's land, his marriage, and his aspirations for his hometown's future for a relationship with Cheryl neither are prepared for. Stuart Eisenstat, a dedicated federal bureaucrat, thinks he's doing an old friend a favor when he picks John's hometown as the perfect site for relocating Guantanamo detainees only to come face to face with the personal cost of America's global ambitions. As the author of both fiction and non-fiction, and the winner of 2017 Independent Publishers IPPY GOLD and 2016 Foreword Reviews INDIE SILVER, Jason Makansi's writing has been praised as "immensely readable," "entertaining, enlightening, and essential," and "relevant to today's political and cultural environment.&quot.…

According to the most recent IPCC report, we have just over a decade before we reach the tipping point of climate catastrophe, potentially displacing tens of millions of people, causing radical changes to food systems, and possibly leading to mass species extinction. Current policy prescriptions are going nowhere. It's time for radical thinking.?CARBON-FREE ELECTRICITY IS THE KEYThe science is clear: Humans are driving unprecedented climate change.
