Book Description
Have you ever pondered what existence really is, who we are, where we come from, why we're so unhappy, what the truth is or who is lying to us until finally you just want to give up? So has Cory Korine. After earning an impressive living writing music and lyrics for one of the biggest pop stars in history, she wants nothing to do with commercialism, materialism, or the world we live in. Alone, as she chooses to be, she one day finds herself kidnapped and taken to what seems to be a strange yet luxurious hostage situation. With a new forced start, Cory learns to connect with something that has been within all of us all along-our Inner Mirrors. In our first book, Cory begins a journey to save the human race from an utterly depressive existence of being unconnected to our own energetic realities. Maybe she's more than human. Maybe she's already dead. Maybe we all are.

A Crack-up at the Race Riots

Book Description
This reprinting of Korine's first novel presents fragments of a portrait in multimedia: print, photographs, drawings, news clippings, handwriting, a poem, attempted diagrams, clip art; but mostly text, including hard-luck stories, off-and-on-colour jokes, script-scraps, found letters, free rhymes, drug flashbacks and other scenes, exploring the world of show-biz with feet set lightly in the black humours of the real ol' world. This excretion of the danglers of public life would make William Burroughs sigh and turn the page, at least.

Leave Society
Author: Tao Lin
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 1101974486
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
From the acclaimed author of Taipei, a bold portrait of a writer working to balance all his lives—artist, son, loner—as he spins the ordinary into something monumental. An engrossing, hopeful novel about life, fiction, and where the two blur together. In 2014, a novelist named Li leaves Manhattan to visit his parents in Taipei for ten weeks. He doesn't know it yet, but his life will begin to deepen and complexify on this trip. As he flies between these two worlds--year by year, over four years--he will flit in and out of optimism, despair, loneliness, sanity, bouts of chronic pain, and drafts of a new book. He will incite and temper arguments, uncover secrets about nature and history, and try to understand how to live a meaningful life as an artist and a son. But how to fit these pieces of his life together? Where to begin? Or should he leave society altogether? Exploring everyday events and scenes--waiting rooms, dog walks, family meals--while investigatively venturing to the edges of society, where culture dissolves into mystery, Lin shows what it is to write a novel in real time. Illuminating and deeply felt, as it builds toward a stunning, if unexpected, romance, Leave Society is a masterly story about life and art at the end of history. A VINTAGE ORIGINAL
