Book Description
“A get-under-your-skin thriller with machine-gun dialogue and impressive real-world research. It’s one heck of a ride . . . not for the faint of heart.” —CNN.com Canadian Mountie Zinc Chandler knows he’s facing down a psychopath when he’s called to the scene of murder at a Vancouver hotel. There, he finds the body of a Hollywood producer suspended upside down like the Hanged Man tarot card, a crown of nails hammered into his head. When similar corpses turn up across the border in Seattle, Chandler is soon trailing a serial killer he is all too familiar with: his old enemy, the Ripper. But how can that be, when Chandler already put the murderer behind bars? To solve the mystery, Chandler must look back in time to 1888, when London was terrorized by its own demented Jack the Ripper, and into the weird world of H. P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos. His search takes him from the streets of Vancouver to the fantasy realm of the Goths at the World Horror Convention in Seattle to a nail-biting climax in the Kingdom of Bones on the cannibal island of Tangaroa in the South Pacific, where suddenly Chandler is in a struggle for his own survival. “Bed of Nails could stand tall beside the horror-ific works of Stephen King or Anne Rice.” —Halifax Daily News

South Pacific Englishes
Author: Carolin Biewer
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027268959
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Second-language varieties of English in the South Pacific have received scant attention, until now. This monograph offers the first book-length analysis of the sociolinguistics and morphosyntax of three representatives of South Pacific L2 English in comparison – two of which have never been described linguistically. The book describes the spread of English, its current status and use in the three island states and compares the most frequent and salient morphosyntactic features to corresponding structures in Asian and African Englishes and the Oceanic substrate languages. As part of a larger theoretical discussion on the multiple factors that determine the evolution and dynamics of L2 varieties in general, Mufwene’s feature pool model is extended to a new model that integrates cognitive aspects of language acquisition and use, typological aspects of the languages/varieties involved and socio-cultural motivations of language use. The book also examines the role of New Zealand English as a potential epicentre in the South Pacific and considers ethical and methodological issues of linguistic field research.
