Book Description
The true story of Pearl Harbor as you’ve never read it before—action-packed, informative, and told through the eyes of a diverse group of people who experienced the terror of the unprecedented attack firsthand. A single day changed the course of history: December 7, 1941. Nobody in America knew Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor was coming. Nobody was prepared for the aftermath.

Perfect for fans of Steve Sheinkin and Deborah Heiligman, this unflinching narrative puts readers on the ground in Pearl Harbor through the stories of real people who experienced the attack and its aftereffects.

Attacked! sheds new, compelling light onto a history we think we know, what it means to be American, and the enduring lessons from an event we never saw coming.

Publisher: J.E. D'Ulisse
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 355
Book Description
Sheer Mayhem New York is hit by a wave of bombings, and a lack of anything cool to wear. Sheer Power Hot on the trail but cool in their fashion, a wild bunch works against time and the military to find out who is responsible. Shear Infamy, is on the case of the murders. She is the protean protagonist, who travels the broken landscape of a fragmented America, in search of justice and sweet flattering footwear. Shear Infamy, is a human comedy in the age of terrorism and totalitarianism set fifteen minutes into the future of New York City. It comes from the tradition of J.G.Ballard and Thomas Pynchon, and navigates the terrain between Ulysses and Rick & Morty. It is a dark satire on how history victimizes its witnesses, and how they resist. Shear Infamy, an eternally hip woman in her late thirties who decides to confront the bombings - and her own mid-life crisis - by becoming a crime fighter. Surrounded by her ex-boyfriends; two women whose closet she is parasitically living in; and a group of military police; Shear investigates a crime that has shaken the world around her. Included in the dramatis personae are the traumatized Evelin Nook, who lost her sister and her lover in the bombing, Captain Giacomo Straniero, military investigator with a dark and tragic past, Jissabel D’ladie, heiress and femme fatale, Agent Gogol Swinecock, freelance expert and analyst for the security services, Danny Quinn, the revolutionary woke pornographer, Francis Cabliban, an adventurer being hunted by two men in grey suits, Long Dong Wong, a pot dealer and gorrilla insurgent, and Maggy Cranny, who just wants Shear to get out of her apartment. The novel is as fragmented as the lives we live, with each chapter examining a different way of thinking and writing. From movie trailers, to game shows, to epic poetry, the story progresses through comic fake to tragic turn. With its diverse and Dickensian cast, Shear Infamy is an examination of how to live in a world of violence and imagery, where to be is to be seen. The novel ends on a note of hope as friendship and love are illuminated as the only things worth holding onto.
