I wish I could say that I had enjoyed the book that I’m talking about today but if I said that I would be lying. The book of the day is Edward Abbey’s, yes him again, Black Sun. This book does not take place in the same timeline that the other two Abbey books I have reviewed take place in but instead in another vision of our own world.This story can be best said to be a love story although a depressing and bleak view of love it is. The main character is a worker at a ...
Today I am reviewing a book by an author that I have discussed before. The book is Hayduke Lives! and the author is Edward Abbey. This book is the sequel to The Monkey Wrench Gang and it takes place much later in time. One interesting feature of the book is the fact that it is supposed to take place in the real world and so many of the characters in this book have read the previous book. The basic outline of the book is more ecoterrorism but it is gotten to by a different method than in ...
OK now before I get started with the book, I am a little tired tonight so the review may be a little hazy although not as hazy as Hayduke’s normal driving condition. The book I am discussing tonight is The Monkey Wrench Gang by Edward Abbey. The book is about people that have all the brains I associate with the environmental terrorist movement. The main characters are a group of people that through their actions do more harm to the environment than good although you won’t hear the ...
La livre du jour est Toward Home avec Carolyne Aarsen. This book deals with the issue of a Christian romance. Overall it is a decent book very homey and uplifting showing that even though a person may think that they know where there life should go God(and the author) knows better. It is very uplifting because it shows that hard work and caring for other people will get you somewhere in life as it does for the main female character a nurse who is struggling to make ends meet in a small town ...
The book that I read today was State Scarlet by David Aaron. This book was very depressing. It is the fictional story of what would happen if a terrorist stole a nuclear weapon. The story takes place in the nineteen eighties when the main conflict was between the US and the USSR. The main character is a US spy named Sean Gordon with assorted politicians on both sides playing major supporting roles. The reason the book is depressing is because it shows the problems that tit for tat has and ...
This is a historical fiction about Elizabeth Park. Elizabeth park was a British secret agent in the prelude to the second world war. She was the agent who stole first the enigma code machine for the British and later the bombe which was a Polish prototype computer for codebreaking. This book was exteemly interesting and more so because it is based on a real person. The picture it presents of the diplomatic community however is not very diplomatic. The amazing thing is not how little they ...
This is a novel about a serial killer who thinks of himself as the specialist. He mostly kills young female cyclists in Tasmania and Victoria Island. The main character is a young woman named Kirsten whose sister Emma was killed by the monster. It gets more confusing when during the course of her spelunking she finds her sisters ring. The suspense in the novel is who the specialist is. Is it Teugue Kendall a writer who seems to good to be true, or is it Dr. Ralph Stafford a psychiatrist ...
So here I am late at night looking at a computer screen deciding what to type, or even whether it is worth it to type an introduction. This Posting will be the uncommon one because it will not involve the discussion of a book that I have read recently and wish to analyze and comb through to discover what pearls of wisdom it contains. And all books even the worst written has some pearls of wisdom even if that pearl is that some people should not be allowed near paper to write. So if you are ...
Любовь приходит незаметно, Она приходит чуть дыша. Зато стреляет метко-метко, И в сердце прямо, не спеша. Любовь приходит и уходит, И не зачем её держать. Любовь - ведь это как погода, И точно нам не предсказать. Не просто так она к тебе Заглянет в твой пустынный "город", Она зажгет огонь во тьме, Растопит всё - и лёд и холод....!
