Summary:
Québécois et indépendantiste, Éric Langevin vit en exil à New York. De cette métropole, il regarde son pays chavirer dans l'insignifiance. Au gré de ses retours, il erre nostalgique et angoissé parmi les décombres de la nation. Il comprend pourtant que sa province d'origine n'est que la prémonition d'un monde ni admirable ni héroïque, mais vaniteux et imbécile. Il décide(...)

Au gré de ses retours, il erre nostalgique et angoissé parmi les décombres de la nation. Il comprend pourtant que sa province d'origine n'est que la prémonition d'un monde ni admirable ni héroïque, mais vaniteux et imbécile. Il décide alors de compiler la bêtise planétaire. Par ses voyages et ses lectures, il veut appréhender la déliquescence globale. Voici le fruit de sa recherche, un livre mélancolique pour un présent insupportable : une descente aux enfers. Fragments de discours, vignettes de vie, ces impétueux carnets, aussi drôles que tragiques, aussi graves que cinglants, donnent à lire un écrivain révolté, insolent et misanthrope dont l'exaspération sans bornes n'a d'égal que son amour de la patrie.

Summary:
In an age of ecological turbulence, our understanding of the hills, rivers and fields we live among is more critical than ever. But what might the academic study of geography fail to teach us, and what relationships to the land might be revealed by reinvestigating the neglected knowledge practices of myth, history and legend?

In an age of ecological turbulence, our understanding of the hills, rivers and fields we live among is more critical than ever. But what might the academic study of geography fail to teach us, and what relationships to the land might be revealed by reinvestigating the neglected knowledge practices of myth, history and legend? Michael Dames sets out to reconnect with the hallowed landscapes of Britain and Ireland, and finds them populated by ancient goddesses, strange rites, and embedded energies. As he voyages beneath the Neolithic immensity of Silbury Hill, past the chalk horses of Uffington, and the ravaged cliffs of Land’s End peninsular, Dames meets a wild community of holy cows, industrious bees, Sheila-na- Gigs, and Salmon women, channeling the peculiar folk tales they have to tell.

Summary:
Set somewhere between here and the heat-death of the universe, Jim Oaten’s debut collection serves up random samples of literal and literary truth scooped up at top speed. Whether peeking out from the backseat of Mom and Dad’s car or surveying the grimy wings of mental wards, Accelerated Paces hurdles that uneasy terrain between creative fact and honest fiction. These short stories and pieces ignore borders as they jaunt thorough external trips and internal voyages. This is both creative non-fiction and creative fiction, which follows the idea of crossing boundaries and blurring borders. Think part of this collection will be an explicit demonstration of how the two genres interplay, of how a non-fiction event can inspire a fictional piece, and, interestingly enough, the reverse as well.

Summary:
From the famed Atlantis to the remote Rupes Nigra, islands have long held our fascination: they are locales isolated from ordinary life, lurking in unexplored corners of the globe and thus full of undisclosed mysteries.

Summary:
From the famed Atlantis to the remote Rupes Nigra, islands have long held our fascination: they are locales isolated from ordinary life, lurking in unexplored corners of the globe and thus full of undisclosed mysteries. At times, however, our fascination with islands has bled into reality, as real maps bear the coordinates of fictional lands and travelogues tell tall tales of their inhabitants, their natural wonders, or their treasures. In ''Phantom islands,'' Dirk Liesemer tells the stories of thirty of these fantastical islands. Beginning with their supposed discovery, he recreates their fabled landscapes, the voyages that attempted to verify their existence, and, ultimately, the moment when their existence was finally disproven. Spanning oceans and centuries, these curious tales are a chronicle of human lust for discovery and wealth.
