Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 441
Book Description
Zanza is a mosquito and, being a Buddhist, believes she has lived through many thousands of short lifetimes, but she can’t recall a single one of them before she met Herbert. Not that Herbert is particularly memorable. On their first meeting, Zanza viewed this unexceptional human as nothing more than a quick snack opportunity.But then, having sipped from the cup of a Mayan demi-god, Zanza is blessed with a new and profound self-awareness and begins to see her host, not just as a ‘blood bag’, but as a distinct personality. From that point on, with every sip of his blood, with every small death, with every re-incarnation, Zanza learns something new about Herbert. She begins to understand what it is to be human, to feel something like love, to contemplate a chance for immortality.For his part, Herbert, a misanthropic cameraman on assignment in Guatemala, remains oblivious to his involvement in this blossoming relationship. His mind is gripped by a rapidly rising fever, and he is not sure if what he experiences in the dense forests around Tikal is real or a Malaria-induced hallucination. Vampire Monkeys, Zombie Accountants, Golden Warriors that walk through walls, it all starts getting far too weird. But this is a special moment in the world’s history and even the dull witted Herbert finally realises he has a role to play.It’s December 2012, the Mayan Calendar is about to reset to zero and the world is about to end.

Revisiting Japan’s Restoration
Author: Timothy Amos
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000508188
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
This volume presents the reader with thirty-one short chapters that capture an exciting new moment in the study of the Meiji Restoration. The chapters offer a kaleidoscope of approaches and interpretations of the Restoration that showcase the strengths of the most recent interpretative trends in history writing on Japan while simultaneously offering new research pathways. On a scale probably never before seen in the study of the Restoration outside Japan, the short chapters in this volume reveal unique aspects of the transformative event and process not previously explored in previous research. They do this in three core ways: through selecting and deploying different time frames in their historical analysis; by creative experimentation with different spatial units through which to ascertain historical experience; and by innovative selection of unique and highly original topics for analysis. The volume offers students and teachers of Japanese history, modern history, and East Asian studies an important resource for coming to grips with the multifaceted nature of Japan’s nineteenth-century transformation. The volume will also have broader appeal to scholars working in fields such as early modern/modern world history, global history, Asian modernities, gender studies, economic history, and postcolonial studies.
