Book Description
They call me a hero. Every day I risk my life to save others, and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Fighting fires is my passion and a job I love more than anything in the world. There is no better feeling than the adrenaline that rushes through me when I step inside a burning building. The one thing I'm not is a hero in the eyes of the women I sleep with. I'm nothing more than a one-night stand and a confirmed bachelor who happily walks away the next morning. Even a hero can be a womanizer and a partier.Challenges are my specialty, and I thrive on them.My newest challenge is a beautiful and sexy doctor named Sara Davis. She's complicated, but so am I. I was willing to break my one-night stand rule for her until my past came back to haunt me, reminding me why I had become the man I am and why I chose never to find my happily ever after.My name is Mason Wolfe, and I am the third Wolfe brother.

The Missing Heiress
Author: Robert Goldsborough
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504079876
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
The daughter of a steel magnate disappears, and Nero and Archie must forge ahead with an investigation in this new mystery from the award–winning author. Archie Goodwin’s very good friend, Lily Rowan, spends much of her time—and considerable financial resources—helping women in need, from underpaid workers to mistreated wives. But at the moment she’s particularly concerned about one woman: her best friend, Maureen, a beautiful socialite who’s been incommunicado for two weeks. After Archie helps Lily comb through Maureen’s deserted Park Avenue penthouse, and Lily contacts each of her friend’s well-heeled suitors, they still don’t know much more than when they started. Then Archie tries to track down Maureen’s estranged half-brother, but he seems to have vanished as well. Fortunately, Archie’s employer, Nero Wolfe, has a soft spot for Lily. He volunteers to step in—just in time, too, as this missing-person case soon becomes a murder case . . . “[Wolfe is] one of the two or three most beloved detectives in fiction.” —Publishers Weekly “Goldsborough has all of the late writer’s stylistic mannerisms down pat.” —The New York Times

The Multiple Worlds of Pynchon's Mason & Dixon
Author: Elizabeth Jane Wall Hinds
Publisher: Camden House
ISBN: 9781571134110
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
New essays examining the interface between 18th- and 20th-century culture both in Pynchon's novel and in the historical past. Thomas Pynchon's 1997 novel Mason & Dixon marked a deep shift in Pynchon's career and in American letters in general. All of Pynchon's novels had been socially and politically aware, marked by social criticism and a profound questioning of American values. They have carried the labels of satire and black humor, and "Pynchonesque" has come to be associated with erudition, a playful style, anachronisms and puns -- and an interest in scientific theories, popular culture, paranoia, and the "military-industrial complex." In short, Pynchon's novels were the sine qua non of postmodernism; Mason & Dixon went further, using the same style, wit, and erudition to re-create an 18th century when "America" was being formed as both place and idea. Pynchon's focus on the creation of the Mason-Dixon Line and the governmental and scientific entities responsible for it makes a clearer statement than any of his previous novels about the slavery and imperialism at the heart of the Enlightenment, as he levels a dark and hilarious critique at this America. This volume of new essays studies the interface between 18th- and 20th-century cultureboth in Pynchon's novel and in the historical past. It offers fresh thinking about Pynchon's work, as the contributors take up the linkages between the 18th and 20th centuries in studies that are as concerned with culture as withthe literary text itself. Contributors: Mitchum Huehls, Brian Thill, Colin Clarke, Pedro Garcia-Caro, Dennis Lensing, Justin M. Scott Coe, Ian Copestake, Frank Palmeri. Elizabeth Jane Wall Hinds is Professor and Chair of the English Department at SUNY Brockport.

The Most Dangerous Cinema
Author: Bryan Senn
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476613575
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
People hunting people for sport--an idea both shocking and fascinating. In 1924 Richard Connell published a short story that introduced this concept to the world, where it has remained ever since--as evidenced by the many big- and small-screen adaptations and inspirations. Since its publication, Connell's award-winning "The Most Dangerous Game" has been continuously anthologized and studied in classrooms throughout America. Raising questions about the nature of violence and cruelty, and the ethics of hunting for sport, the thrilling story spawned a new cinematic subgenre, beginning with RKO's 1932 production of The Most Dangerous Game, and continuing right up to today. This book examines in-depth all the cinematic adaptations of the iconic short story. Each film chapter has a synopsis, a "How Dangerous Is It?" critique, an overall analysis, a production history, and credits. Five additional chapters address direct to video, television, game shows, and almost "dangerous" productions. Photographs, extensive notes, bibliography and index are included.
