Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Eric Sundwall is challenging the Masters and minions of Midgard to provide a simple answer to his riddle, 'What is the Anarchist's Dictator ' The author leads the reader on a surrealistic Valkyrie chase over a burning Rainbow Bridge, a dolphin tutoring the Amish, a Logan's Run-esque tour of a Presidential estate followed by some Artificial Intelligence hi-jinks on Mars. It should be clear that the case for anarchy need not be made simply on the cold ground of logic or in the comfortable circles of theory. The answer to this lyrical riddle will never be clear to most. Part short story, essay and a poem of panic, the broad underlying syllogism of this inconceivably brief piece is replete in historical reference, disturbing narrative, mythical cues and ideological whimsy. Be warned, even the most sophisticated reader may not render the answer correctly. The most honest kid may . On July 23, 2017 that answer will be revealed and any reader, from a precocious 12 year old to the wily octogenarian, will have the opportunity to submit their guess and win a thousand dollars. Details of the contest can be found at anarchistdictator.net. The goal of this project is to introduce the possibility of anarchism through the heart, via a wily and witty brain teaser. Can you find the answer as other great minds and personalities try There's an additional clue in the printed version. Sundwall will be launching a concerted speaking and video tour in the Fall of 2016. He will continue until there is no more audience. The Anarchist's Dictator is his unique knockdown and plea to a Statist-verse riddled with guilt by association, Attention Deficit Disorder and piss poor ideological solutions which never fit the ultimate human need and capacity; freedom. For the price of a cheeseburger or a bad movie you could obtain enlightenment or win some cash. This fifteen to thirty minute gulp of existential fury will be a ride you soon won't forget. Your fifteen minutes of Anarchy.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - People in recovery become better because they learn to understand themselves and overcome their demons. The Fun We Had offers practical tools for self-examination and opens the mind to new ideas about spirituality. It describes the power of addiction, the dangers of relapse and how to fill the void left after addiction treatment. The author encourages its readers to take responsibility for their lives by being proactive. Instead of a daunting experience, their recovery becomes one that they can enjoy. Psychotherapist Christopher Burn has been in recovery for 30 years and has worked in the addiction treatment field for 20 years. He also published 'Poetry Changes Lives', a book of daily meditations drawing inspiration from history and poetry. His desire is to help other people in recovery live a life that is 'better than well'.Addiction treatment is a serious business where pain often comes before gain and encouragement can make a huge difference; recovery on the other hand, should be enjoyed - it is the chance of a second life that should be taken wholeheartedly. Many recovering addicts find themselves doing and relishing activities that they never dreamt of before. They find themselves to be 'better than well'. The Fun We Had is about this. The Twelve Step Programme of recovery is unique in that it introduces the idea of spirituality, an idea formulated by Psychologist Carl Jung when writing to Bill W (co-founder of AA) in 1934 as 'spiritus contra spiritum' (ie: spirituality against alcoholic spirits). Spirituality is usually profoundly lacking in those in active addiction but the process of enquiry into this, in recovery, is for many a fascinating and life changing experience. It is hoped that The Fun We Had will provide some insights into both addiction and the enjoyment of recovery. This small book covers some points on the journey from 'terminally unwell' to 'better than well'. You don't have to be an addict to read it but if you're not - this is what you're missing.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - When our youngest child punched two kids in the junk within an 18-hour period, I questioned whether I could have done anything to prevent it.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This award-winning collection was first published in 1987. The revised edition contains ten new haiku and senryu, which McLeod has selected for this current printing. In the everyday rush to get things done we often miss the poignant small things and meaningful moments that lie just beyond our everyday consciousness. Small Town/Big City is about those moments. Whether it is a prom tux flapping with excitement in a pickup window or a homeless man screaming at the mannequin they are uniquely captured by Donald McLeod's keenly perceptive eye and his command of the American haiku form. He grew up on a small farm near the town of Manchester, in rugged northern California's Mendocino County. He was an only child who spent most of his time playing in nature my himself. His parents didn't own a television, so the natural world around Donald was his entertainment. Most of his adult life was spent in Los Angeles where many of his 'Big City' moments were captured. But the images from his country boyhood have remained with him, and are vividly recalled in his 'Small Town' section of this book. McLeod has written over 3500 haiku and senryu and has been published in countless journals and anthologies in the United States, Canada, Japan and Europe. He works full time as a movement artist and butoh dancer, and is the owner of America's oldest Living Statue company. Many will remember Donald as the famous gorilla in the Samsonite TV commercials, or as the gorilla in Trading Places. As an actor he is best remembered for his role of Peter Pan's Shadow in the movie Hook, and as the werewolf TC, in the classic horror film The Howling. Donald McLeod also created the cover painting.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In the poems of Imogene Engine, images haunt the text. Lists, memories, quotations, poems, verbal games and explorations, citations, theoretical ephemera, doodles, snatched handfuls of conversation, bibliographic data, isolated verses: all are lain and tangled together as they pass through her life and onto the page. We feel the cold calipers of language, the scandal of naming, listing, sorting, the indifferent violence of taxonomy; but from it issue forth, or are interpolated, images wherein memory and myth and dream burn through like light, oscillant. These images recur from text to text, recombinant, and their shifting recurrence creates a linguistic collage that permeates the work. The poems are constellations, not objects. In them, she collages thought-or rather, perceives that thought and perception play within the logic of collage, that it is within the dynamics: separate-together, distinction-relation: that the subject brings her self to life, and returns to look at what Other is not here. -Olchar E. Lindsann, from the Introduction.…
