Описание: In Myanmar, where civil war, repressive government, and the $30 billion-a-year jade industry have shaped life for decades, everyone is searching for their own version of the truth . . . Bum Tsit has a problem. In Myanmar's far north, he is caught between the insurgent army his family supports and the business and military leaders his career depends on. It forces him to confront Myanmar's biggest, most painful secret: the connection between the jade industry and the longest-running war in the world. Now, he must choose a side. Phoe Wa lives in a very different Myanmar. He is a young migrant who has come to Yangon, the country's biggest city, to pursue his dream of being a photojournalist. At a time when the government is jailing reporters and nationalist voices are on the rise, he believes that he has a responsibility to educate the public about his country's problems. Until the World Shatters weaves Phoe Wa and Bum Tsit's stories of dramatic revelation to present the definitive portrait of Myanmar's politics and people in an era where public trust has disappeared. It also introduces us to the monks, punks, refugees, and disillusioned youth, all fighting for their vision of the country's future--and in many cases, simply for survival. This is the first in-depth piece of reportage about the largest natural resource heist in Asia and its massive destabilization of the country as a whole, taking us deeper into Myanmar's world of secret-keepers and truth-tellers than ever before.

Автор: Combs John Название: Animal Love and Other Stuff ISBN: 1647186862 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781647186869 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 23280.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание:
ANIMAL LOVE AND OTHER STUFF comprises four basic sections.
The first part, "Animal Love," contains love poems in which the author addresses his mate as if they were both animals of the same species.
Part two, "Other Animal Stuff," offers primarily light-toned verse involving animals, with a couple of prose pieces thrown in.
The third section, "Somewhat More Serious Stuff," presents poems with considerably more sober themes than the other parts do.
The fourth part, "Somewhat Less Serious Stuff and Other Inanities," easily qualifies as nonsense poery and prose. The writer wrote this stuff purely for fun and hopes readers will find a few laughs here.

Adam Obadiah Slope is a lineal descendant of Dr. Obadiah Slope, the sycophantic weasel-like clergyman in Anthony Trollope's Barchester Towers. The Reverend Doctor Slope, Trollope claimed, was in turn descended from Doctor Slop, the fumbling but comical character who with considerable difficulty delivered Tristram into this world in Laurence Sterne's The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy. The title of the present work might well have been The Life and Opinions of Adam Slope, for that is what this book offers.
This book emphasizes character rather than plot. In an attempt to follow traditions set by such authors as Cervantes, Sterne, Trollope, Joyce, and others, this work is not altogether linear. Rather, it contains interjections, interruptions, and a good number of inanities.
Adam Slope can be ludicrous in some of his accounts, but he can also, on occasion, express serious philosophical and social thoughts. The fictional narrator, Jonathon Eidobon, probes Slope's life and opinions, the silly ones, the serious, and those in between, and reports them to the reader. The writer hopes the reader will find a few laughs along the way.
