A Boy's Book of Nervous Breakdowns
Author: Tom Paine
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807161268
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
The insightful and provocative stories in Tom Paine's collection spring from a series of seismic events that rocked the post-millennium world. News headlines from the last decade -- the fall of Baghdad, the Occupy Wall Street movement, and the BP oil spill -- not only inspire the settings but also raise ethical questions that percolate throughout this ominous and timely work. A stark reminder of the challenges and resultant anxiety facing a global society, "A Boy's Book of Nervous Breakdowns" depicts the simultaneously dreamlike and brutally real experience of witnessing contemporary political and environmental catastrophes. Paine approaches the second U.S. invasion of Iraq through the eyes of a CBS radio journalist and her desperate Iraqi translator as they report the opening months of the attack and dodge dan- ger with a newborn in tow. In other stories, a father blames global warming for the drowning death of his daughter and journeys by horseback across the last of the Montana glaciers; a Japanese reggae band struggles under the radioactive umbrella of the Fukushima nuclear disaster; and a genius at Goldman Sachs invents a money-making algorithm, then ends his days with a tribe of headhunters in the Amazon. Paine masterfully orchestrates these episodic depictions of a failing civilization, however unnerving, through a wide array of perspectives, each tied to the other by Cassandra-like prophecies. Immediately compelling, "A Boy's Book of Nervous Breakdowns" confronts the harsh realities of our time with imaginative and moving vignettes that reinforce the fragility, greed, and heartache of the human condition.

The Mick Sever Music Trilogy
Author: Don Bruns

Languages : en
Pages : 820
Book Description
Grab your sunscreen! You’re in for a whirlwind, music-inspired, fun-filled trip to South Beach, Miami—then on to St. Barts and the Bahamas. Music columnist Mick Sever follows pop stars around the world, looking for a story—that’s his job. But he gets way more than he bargained for in these garden spots. The Mick Sever Music Series Trilogy begins with South Beach Shakedown as songwriting legend Gideon Pike mysteriously disappears just when he’s about to turn his thirty-year career into a multi-million dollar profit. New York Times best-selling author Michael Connelly describes the results: “A glitzy high-speed run from the back alleys to the burnt beaches of Miami Beach. It’s hard to tell where the terrain is most dangerous.” St. Bart’s Breakdown follows when Mick encounters sun, sand, and a psychopath—in the person Danny Murtz, a music legend with walls lined with gold and platinum records—and a closet full of skeletons. The series concludes with Bahama Burnout when Mick is called to the legendary Highland Studio in Nassau, where the magic happened—until a devastating fire left only charred remains—and a dead body. On a personal level, Mick Sever learns some tough lessons throughout this trilogy. According to Booklist, “Bruns nails the world of celebrity journalism.”
