Book Description
Vampires . . . they ache, they love, they thirst for the forbidden. They are your friends and lovers, and your worst fears. “A major new voice in horror fiction . . . an electric style and no shortage of nerve.”—Booklist At a club in Missing Mile, N.C., the children of the night gather, dressed in black, look for acceptance. Among them are Ghost, who sees what others do not; Ann, longing for love; and Jason, whose real name is Nothing, newly awakened to an ancient, deathless truth about his father, and himself. Others are coming to Missing Mile tonight. Three beautiful, hip vagabonds—Molochai, Twig, and the seductive Zillah, whose eyes are as green as limes—are on their own lost journey, slaking their ancient thirst for blood, looking for supple young flesh. They find it in Nothing and Ann, leading them on a mad, illicit road trip south to New Orleans. Over miles of dark highway, Ghost pursues, his powers guiding him on a journey to reach his destiny, to save Ann from her new companions, to save Nothing from himself. . . . “An important and original work . . . a gritty, highly literate blend of brutality and sentiment, hope and despair.”—Science Fiction Chronicle

Closing of the American Mind

Author: Allan Bloom

Languages : en
Pages : 403

Book Description
The brilliant, controversial, bestselling critique of American culture that “hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy” (The New York Times)—now featuring a new afterword by Andrew Ferguson in a twenty-fifth anniversary edition. In 1987, eminent political philosopher Allan Bloom published The Closing of the American Mind, an appraisal of contemporary America that “hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy” (The New York Times) and has not only been vindicated, but has also become more urgent today. In clear, spirited prose, Bloom argues that the social and political crises of contemporary America are part of a larger intellectual crisis: the result of a dangerous narrowing of curiosity and exploration by the university elites. Now, in this twenty-fifth anniversary edition, acclaimed author and journalist Andrew Ferguson contributes a new essay that describes why Bloom’s argument caused such a furor at publication and why our culture so deeply resists its truths today.

Truth before Logic

Author: Michael B. Mitchell
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 107

Book Description
Truth before Logic explores the provocative implications of the claim that “you can only find truth with logic if you have already found truth without it.” Chesterton counters the sterile, truncated worldview of scientism with an appeal to a deep awareness in the heart and mind without which there would be neither science nor religion. He stirs a buried awareness of the lucid but inarticulate truth that “romance is the deepest thing in life,” and counters a myopic materialism by making us more aware of the reality that racks the soul “with something of which God keeps the secret but which is stronger than sorrow or joy.” Few voices will be more helpful in enabling the contemporary reader to understand science within the full scope of human experience. Chesterton’s insights are an antidote to the soul-atrophy that results from scientism and a ballast of sanity in a confidently confused world.

Pages : 124

Book Description
Have you ever heard a song or read a poem and thought, I wonder what made the artist sing/write these words? Whats the story behind that song? What does the message actually mean? What memory is the artist reflecting on? Maybe you read a metaphoric poem written by a legendary poet and wondered what it really meant. Not the interpretations made by many over the years. With Forbidden Truth, poet and author Deborah Almaroof gives you her complete vision. She allows you to embark on the mental capacity at the time of each works creation and gives insight into what each poem means. Deborah Almaroof began writing at a young age, love songs and short stories. At the age of 20, as a sophomore at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, five hours away from her hometown; she found herself alone and unhappy being so far away from her family. She searched for a coping mechanism and one night began to write. It was then that she tapped into a gift she never knew she had; the ability to construct poetry. To her surprise what she initially thought nothing of turned into endless nights up, turning her deepest thoughts into amazing art. At the age of 21, she vowed that at the age of 25 she would release her first poetry book. Here she gives you a collection of her poems and personal quotes, teamed up with her life experiences that inspired them. It has been said that the richest place on earth is a graveyard. Many are buried with unshared riches, gifts, ideas and talents. With this project the author proclaims that no measurement of success comes from the external; critique nor praise compares to the magnitude of success inside these pages. To achieve this goal, first time author and poet Deborah Almaroof says this is her success. Reaching a goal in a world where many people never witness their biggest dreams transform into a reality. Forbidden Truth is truly one to sink your teeth into!
