The Far Edges of the Fourth Genre
Author: Sean Prentiss
Publisher: MSU Press
ISBN: 1628950234
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Though creative nonfiction has been around since Montaigne, St. Augustine, and Seneca, we’ve only just begun to ask how this genre works, why it functions the way it does, and where its borders reside. But for each question we ask, another five or ten questions roil to the surface. And each of these questions, it seems, requires a more convoluted series of answers. What’s more, the questions students of creative nonfiction are drawn to during class discussions, the ones they argue the longest and loudest, are the same ideas debated by their professors in the hallways and at the corner bar. In this collection, sixteen essential contemporary creative nonfiction writers reflect on whatever far, dark edge of the genre they find themselves most drawn to. The result is this fascinating anthology that wonders at the historical and contemporary borderlands between fiction and nonfiction; the illusion of time on the page; the mythology of memory; poetry, process, and the use of received forms; the impact of technology on our writerly lives; immersive research and the power of witness; a chronology and collage; and what we write and why we write. Contributors: Nancer Ballard, H. Lee Barnes, Kim Barnes, Mary Clearman Blew, Joy Castro, Robin Hemley, Judith Kitchen, Brenda Miller, Ander Monson, Dinty W. Moore, Sean Prentiss, Lia Purpura, Erik Reece, Jonathan Rovner, Bob Shacochis, and Joe Wilkins.

Elsewhen
Author: William Patterson
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595360459
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 688
Book Description
As Mahmood approached them, Jimmy saw what was in Mahmood's good hand. He knew what it was. Mahmood used such devices frequently on his captives and had used such a device on Jimmy before. Jimmy screamed louder in rage and frustration. "I do not want that on my head." He tried to move away from Mahmood but made little progress because of the handcuffs. Mahmood reached over to try to put the device on. Jimmy bent his head away from Mahmood in order to avoid the device. Jimmy was unsuccessful and the device went on. When the sphere touched the top of his head, it flowed out in all directions, assuming a more flattened shape. It stuck to his head despite the fact that he used his free hand to try to pull it off. He started sobbing. All his movements gradually started getting slower and slower. He appeared to get weaker and weaker, which he was. The violent emotions shown on his face became more subdued. He began to get lethargic. He slowly sank to the floor.

Living Well, Living Wise
Author: Mary Ellen Trahan
Publisher: Hillcrest Publishing Group
ISBN: 1626528276
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Find out how you can avoid the trap of latching on to a predictable pop psychology "smooth fix" as well as escape the feeling of floundering in a sea of advice. Living Well, Living Wise examines our society's history of categorizing people into symptoms and illnesses such as ADHD, depression, anxiety disorder, and the like. Standard therapies and drug treatment have truly helped many people. However, it can be tempting to use these tools to minimize the richness and complexity of being human and to short-circuit our search for a good life. Author and therapist Mary Ellen Trahan blends theological, psychological, and philosophical teachings to offer more than a typical "self-help" book. Living Well, Living Wise will help you begin the transformation into a flourishing, mature, joyous human being with a balanced concern for yourself, others, and the world.
