Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition, First Printing. Signed and dated by the author on the back of the front cover; above the author's signature and date are printed these words: "This Book is Being Given To/ You By My Christian Brother/Jack Wieland" The thesis of the work is that we cannot even mention Jesus in public schools (except as a curse word); and every reminder of our Christian foundation is systematically being removed from public view. By His Word is a wake-up call to America's churches. If we continue down the path we are following, the open persecution of Biblical Christianity is just around the next corner. A very nice, first edition, author signed, copy. Signed By the Author.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "These 15 new stories celebrate the differences between us and our northern neighbor. As in any good noir, poverty, drugs, and despair cloud many of the characters' lives. But even the stories about druggies have a certain je ne sais quoi.Whether it's the quirkiness of the characters, the ingenuity of the puzzles, or the big hearts inside some of the darkest villains, noir's different north of the border."--Kirkus Reviews"American crime fiction fans will welcome the opportunity to sample the short fiction of some worthy Canadian authors."--Publishers Weekly"Montreal solidifies its reputation as the epicentre for Canadian noir in a strong new anthology."--Quill & Quire, Editor's Choice"Akashic Books has produced more than 80 city-noir collections, from Atlanta to Zagreb. Toronto has had a turn and Vancouver is in the works. The Montreal edition brings together a bicultural roster of talent by some of the city's best crime-fiction specialists, with tales from the city's many neighbourhoods."--Toronto Star, included in Arrivals column"The best reason for reading short-story anthologies is to discover new writers. That means searching for talented editors to select the goods and, in this case, John McFetridge and Jacques Filippi have definitely delivered in this elegant collection for the wonderful Akashic city noir series. There are no bad stories here, but there are many standouts.It's worth having this book around for quick reading and rediscovery of old spots in Montreal. It also makes a great little gift for mystery fans, and even those who aren't."--The Globe and Mail"Jacques Filippi and John McFetridge have assembled an impressive roster of Francophone (most translated by Katie Shireen Assef) and Anglophone writers for Montreal Noir.Filippi and McFetridge have done a fine job bringing together stories from across the many sub-genres of mystery: police procedural, thriller, private eye, psychological suspense, and hard-boiled crime.The avid crime fiction reader is sure to find a tale (or six) in Montreal Noir to suit their taste."--Montreal Review of BooksAkashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir., the Noir Series explores new Canadian terrain, featuring both English and Francophone authors.Brand-new stories by: Patrick Senecal, Tess Fragoulis, Howard Shrier, Michel Basilieres, Robert Pobi, Samuel Archibald, Genevieve Lefebvre, Ian Truman, Johanne Seymour, Arjun Basu, Martin Michaud, Melissa Yi, Catherine McKenzie, Peter Kirby, and Brad Smith.From the introduction by John McFetridge & Jacques Filippi:Montreal is one of the oldest cities in North America and seems to be in a constant state of flux, changing its personality every few decades. Today, the city has its own language: Franglais (or Frenglish). Maybe the first word spoken in that language was noir.Perhaps it's fitting that a collection that brings so many of Montreal's cultures together is noir. Much of the city's literary tradition was defined by the two solitudes and most of the works delved deeply into single neighborhoods.This collection, with voices of French and English writers, visits many neighborhoods and combines them into something that is, if not totally coherent, at least as coherent as the beautiful mess that is Montreal.Each neighborhood is different, and of course, each Montrealer (Montrealais) is different, making up the pieces of the mosaic of our city. Some are bright and shiny, others are darker and somber, but all have a shadow in the noir. Following the success of Toronto Noir, the Noir Series explores new Canadian terrain, featuring both English and Francopho Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. A 2019 Italian BestsellerSurgically, but with wit, Francesco Filippi demolishes each and every myth that has taken root about Mussolini and fascism in an uplifting handbook for political and intellectual self-defense. No stones are left unturned, including the colonial devastation of Libya and Ethiopia.Legend would have it that Mussolini put roofs over Italians' heads, developed the economy, had trains running on time, stood up for justice and against the mafia, protected the Jews from Nazi Germany, was a feminist, and put Italy on the map as a respected power. The founder of fascism's only mistake was allying with Hitler.Though this is entirely false, it didn't prevent Antonio Tahani, president of the European Union, from declaring in 2019 that "if we must be honest, he [Mussolini] did positive things to realize infrastructures . he reclaimed many parts of our Italy." In fact, only 6 percent of the improvements referred to were done during the 21 years of fascist rule.Though written first for Italians, this book is relevant and timely for North Americans. Through a study of Mussolini and Italy, Filippi shows how such legends are built on webs of lie, manipulation of History, and constant uncontested repetition, explaining at the same time why so many people fall victim to the propaganda.…
