Backwards the Drowned Go Dreaming
"Amongst the oil fumes and the briny dinge of the sea, greasy, tired, frustrated, I had a flash. Suddenly, I had it all figured out-the psychology of despots and CEOs. I figured that in order for civilization to exist, people have to stay in one place, and so it seems somehow natural that the evolution of society would be to create an illusion of motion where none exists. Faster cars. Faster editing. Increased sensory stimulation. But all the while we are actually sitting more and more still. The population is placated by the feeling of progress, when in reality they are imprisoned. Even if we feel or strive to be utterly irresponsible, we're still somehow doing ourjob." Carl Watson evokes h...
A Master’s in Love & a Bachelor’s in Growth
A Master’s in Love & a Bachelor’s in Growth is a two-part book composed of many different experiences with a collage of linked short stories that includes a dash of visual aids. This collection includes a journey filled with life’s inevitable trials, tribulations, heartaches, heartbreaks, triumphs, victories, and personal enlightenment. You will undergo an adventurous path influenced by moments and lessons acquired through life experiences during higher education. You will also have an opportunity to engage in this journey by responding to conversational questions found at the end of each story. These cultivating heart- to- heart questions will enable you to reflect on your life experiences and share your story. This book has a few primary goals: to influence, to encourage, and to inspire, which simply means to impact; to share experiences and moments that resonate with the audience, which simply means to entertain. Maybe we can learn something about ourselves that classes did not teach us, but life did.
Beneath the Empire of the Birds
Fiction. Carl Watson applies his eye and hand via pathos, paranoia and chaos to the over-urban world of Chicago's Uptown district, his slices of life housed under such excited mental categories as "Descenders to the Skin Cage," "The Body Like an Arrow on a Nomad Map," "Swirling Birds In the Mind is a Sign of Madness," "Escape from the Totalitarian State of Flight," "They Could Be Cannibals." Acclaimed artist Joe Coleman's paintings dot Watson's pages like interim chapters, each its own explicit but encrypted sad tale. As Watson notes, "Sometimes an event is interpreted as 'news' and re-fed into the system forming a feedback loop that ramifies its every minute aspect until it actually posits a threat that overwhelms so-called reality or 'sense'" Watson's Uptowners reside in a gray zone outside the margin of The News, but they still make their own noise--a murmur not a whimper.
