The One-Eyed Man
With his peculiar brand of wit and some often brutal social commentary, author Jonathan Schork has offered an unusual book in fourteen sections on subjects as diverse as Donald Trump and contemporary U.S. Politics to recipes for omelettes and ice cream. A helpful bibliography will direct the curious reader to some of the material on which Schork has informed this unusual book.
The Chambered Nautilus
Critical of the current trend in contemporary poetry toward "artfully formatted prose" and "futurist percussive poetry", eclectic writer and artist jonathan schork-- a self-professed classical aesthete-- offers us a rare treat: a collection of poetry with themes often influenced by contemporary politics, history, and even anthropology composed across a broad spectrum of unfashionable styles, including odes, elegies, and haiku, featuring the "iambs, metrons, and poiimata" that made our poetic forebears giants in the field. With a brief foray into ridiculous limericks, schork reminds us that traditional poetic form can also be playful and fun. Illustrated with a collection of artwork from the author's studio and from literary sources, this unusual volume presents an extensive exploration of a word-smith's mind and craft.
The Birds in My Back Yard
Jonathan Schork's "back yard" is an island of wildlife habitat in an ocean of mowed lawns treated with chemicals and vast expanses of concrete and asphalt. A veritable zoopark of wildlife, the author offers us in this small book a brief glimpse of the local birdlife, but so much more. With range maps, cheeky artwork, bird trivia, and nonsense verse that channels the spirit ofDr. Suess, Mr. Schork gives us his view of nature, and a volume uniquely suited to a child's curious mind.

Mogworld
In a world full to bursting with would-be heroes, Jim couldn't be less interested in saving the day. His fireballs fizzle. He's awfully grumpy. Plus, he's been dead for about sixty years. When a renegade necromancer wrenches him from eternal slumber and into a world gone terribly, bizarrely wrong, all Jim wants is to find a way to die properly, once and for all. On his side, he's got a few shambling corpses, an inept thief, and a powerful death wish. But he's up against tough odds: angry mobs of adventurers, a body falling apart at the seams — and a team of programmers racing a deadline to hammer out the last few bugs in their AI. *Mogworld is the debut novel from video-game icon Yahtzee Croshaw (Zero Punctuation)!

War and Peacekeeping
There are no winners in war, only losers. We have so far avoided a third world war, but across the globe regional conflicts flare up in a seemingly unstoppable cycle. Who can stand between the armed camps? Over six decades, Martin Bell has stood in eighteen war zones – as a soldier, a reporter and a UNICEF ambassador. Now he looks back on our efforts to keep the peace since the end of the Second World War and the birth of the United Nations peacekeeping mission in the new State of Israel. From the failures of Bosnia, Rwanda and South Sudan to nationalism’s resurgence and the distribution of alternative facts across a darkening political landscape, Bell calls for us to learn from past mistakes – before it’s too late.
