Описание: A vibrant collection of sharp and essential modern pieces on the perennially controversial Lolita, by a wide range of celebrated writers, edited by the daughter of Lolita's original publisher. In 1958, Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita was published in the United States to immediate controversy. More than sixty years later, it is more important than ever to discuss this complex novel. Now, having commissioned original contributions by Cheryl Strayed, Roxane Gay, Erika S nchez, Sloane Crosley, Andre Dubus III, Ian Frazier, Lauren Groff, Stacy Schiff, Emily Mortimer, Victor LaValle, and many more, Jenny Minton Quigley examines how we read Lolita today. Lolita both exists in and exemplifies many of the issues at the forefront of our current national discourse: art and politics, race and whiteness, gender and power, sexual trauma. Jenny, the daughter of Walter J. Minton, who published Lolita at G. P. Putnam's Sons after it had been rejected by five other American publishers, brings a unique vantage point to this conversation. In her introduction she tells the amazing true story of the original publication, a risk Walter took despite the very real possibility that he could be prosecuted and go to jail (and which, by the way, included Walter's daring flight through a storm to meet Nabokov and strike the deal). Lolita in the Afterlife is a riveting examination of the bright and dark spell that Nabokov's indelible novel left and still leaves on the cultural landscape. As these prominent writers of the twenty-first century attest, Lolita lives on, in an afterlife as blinding as a supernova.

Their collection of neurological research about the thought processes in learning and performing dance encompasses a vision of dance as creative art, communication, education, and life. The book informs neuroscientists, educators, and dancers about the complex interdependence of brain localities and networking of human neurology through an integration of physiology, cognition, and the art of dance. Chapters address observation, engagement, critical thought, emotion, memory, imagery and imagination, learning, problem solving, and 21st century skills. Finer components are explored through neurological networks, classroom pedagogy, dance, and movement experiences that provide: -Description of the thought processes, their components, and their neurological functional needs. -The neurological physiology that has been discovered in the cognitive process. -How brain function can be applied to the educational classroom. -Applications of the neurological research to dance education, the choreographic process, and dance performance. -Movement explorations for readers to experience the thought processes through dance with neurological knowledge in mind.

"It's got to be hard to keep amazing coming and coming in each chapter, but Toby set the standard with his first novel and this one stays true to form."
With her world turned inside out, Nikki is struggling to feel anything besides useless and alone, even though she and Michael are closer than ever. Her first instinct was to curl up and hide, but four months of feeling sorry for herself was three and a half months too many. Her world clearly isn't going to fix itself, so she's taking over. Now she's hitting the streets every night, searching for something-anything-to make her feel like her old self again. But what she finds is a nightmare. A vicious new threat is prowling the shadows, a herald of the coming apocalypse-a threat that might be closer to home than anyone realizes.
