Literary Theories
Author: William Baker
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1349250287
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Every student of literature needs to understand how to use literary theory to analyse and interpret the text. Literary Theories challenges the out-dated notion that theory is something separable from the act of reading and interpretation and, believing that the best way to learn is through practical application, plunges the student into the midst of a range of critical readings. Clearly argued and lucidly written, these essays offer the student reader an interactive introduction to the ways in which contemporary literary theories challenge us to rethink interpretation, literary writing and critical reading.

No Sweat
Author: Bill Lindquist
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 150497624X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 692
Book Description
This is the story of Earth’s attempt to repel an alien invasion during the first Troglin war. The setting is in the not-too-distant future, and it is told through the eyes of the men at the tactical end of the war, up close and personal. Our heroes, Brad and Troy, are two fighter pilots that are pulled into an onslaught of adventures ranging from barroom brawls and car chases to romance and wild dogfights miles above the earth. Along the way there are heartaches, heartbreaks, laughs, defeats, and victories. In short they get shot at, shot up, and shot down. The Troglins are merciless slave-trading invaders. They are harsh humanoids and are shown through the eyes of one of their flotilla leaders, Agrat Acmea. Escorting swarms of ‘suppressor’ and ‘annihilator’ saturation craft, he surprisingly finds himself in difficulties as the feisty earthlings prove to be tougher than expected. In typical Troglin fashion, someone has to take the blame for the greater than expected losses and Agrat finds himself in political hot water. No sweat is a unique book that brings the rare combination of action packed futuristic adventure, blended with romance, passion, and a surprising ending.
