Anxieties of Experience
Anxieties of Experience offers a new interpretation of US and Latin American literature. Rereading a range of canonical works from Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass to Roberto Bolaño's 2666, it traces the development and interaction of two distinct literary strains in the Americas: the "US literature of experience" and the "Latin American literature of the reader."
How to Travel without Seeing: Dispatches from the New Latin America
A kaleidoscopic, fast-paced tour of Latin America from one of the Spanish-speaking world’s most outstanding writers. Lamenting not having more time to get to know each of the nineteen countries he visits after winning the prestigious Premio Alfaguara, Andrés Neuman begins to suspect that world travel consists mostly of “not seeing.” But then he realizes that the fleeting nature of his trip provides him with a unique opportunity: touring and comparing every country of Latin America in a single stroke. Neuman writes on the move, generating a kinetic work that is at once puckish and poetic, aphoristic and brimming with curiosity. Even so-called non-places—airports, hotels, taxis—are ...
Forgotten Manuscript
"Sergio Chejfec is an admirable writer." —Patti Smith “Could anyone possibly believe that writing doesn’t exist? It would be like denying the existence of rain.” The perfect green notebook forms the basis for Sergio Chejfec’s work, collecting writing, and allowing it to exist in a state of permanent possibility, or, as he says, “The written word is also capable of waiting for the next opportunity to appear and to continue to reveal itself by and for itself.” This same notebook is also the jumping off point for this essay, which considers the dimensions of the act of writing (legibility, annotation, facsimile, inscription, typewriter versus word processor versus pen) as a way of...
In Search of Unity
Albert Einstein once wrote: "The supreme task of the physicist is to arrive at those universal laws from which the cosmos can be built up by pure deduction." Remarkably, in this book we arrive at those universal axioms from which universal science can be built up by pure deduction. Within the prevailing paradigm of science - the mathematical philosophy of nature - we show it is not possible to unify science. To overcome this limitation we introduce a new, more general paradigm. Since the new paradigm is a generalisation of the mathematical philosophy of nature, we are able to retain the mathematical knowledge built up within the prevailing paradigm. Within the new paradigm we introduce four ...
Gallant Deception
There are those who would serve their country, but the country doesn't want them. In this second book of the Cumberland Guard, follow the lesser told side of the Civil War-- its less than honest warriors. After the split of the Guard, the Eastern branch begins to gather some highly unusual recruits in Ameritus Hayes, ""Lucky Lane"" Hickok, and . . . another Billie Crum? Just what is going on here?
Illusions
It didn’t matter to Victor Kincaid which twin son he kept and which one he gave away. But it mattered very much to the tiny infant who was left near the altar of the church in the middle of that cold and moonless November night . . . Chase Carlton has been alone all his life. Yes, there have been women, many women, with whom he has shared the smoldering passion that comes from the dark danger that lies deep within him. But he has never known love, and with every case, every solitary journey into the unspeakably evil minds of the killers he pursues, his heart becomes ever colder. When he makes the stunning discovery that he has a twin who may have been murdered by his wife, he sets out to e...
Promises
Some promises can, perhaps, be broken . . . but not the promises of love. Dr. Elizabeth Jennings is a dedicated trauma surgeon. That’s her dream, her passion, and it’s more than enough until Dr. Nicholas Chase arrives at San Francisco’s Pacific Heights Medical Center. The black-haired, blue-eyed transplant surgeon has dark secrets that he wants to hide—and must hide—especially from someone as lovely as Elizabeth. Nick knows all too well that caring about him, loving him, would surely destroy her. Larisa is Elizabeth’s college roommate and one time closest friend. But since her marriage to Julian Chancellor, Larisa has drifted away, faded away . . . until, desperate and betrayed, ...
