Автор: Eisenberg Emma Copley Название: The Third Rainbow Girl: The Long Life of a Double Murder in Appalachia ISBN: 0316449210 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780316449212 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 18380.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: A stunning, complex narrative about the fractured legacy of a decades-old double murder in rural West Virginia-and the writer determined to put the pieces back together. In the early evening of June 25, 1980 in Pocahontas County, West Virginia, two middle-class outsiders named Vicki Durian, 26, and Nancy Santomero, 19, were murdered in an isolated clearing. They were hitchhiking to a festival known as the Rainbow Gathering but never arrived. For thirteen years, no one was prosecuted for the "Rainbow Murders" though deep suspicion was cast on a succession of local residents in the community, depicted as poor, dangerous, and backward. In 1993, a local farmer was convicted, only to be released when a known serial killer and diagnosed schizophrenic named Joseph Paul Franklin claimed responsibility. As time passed, the truth seemed to slip away, and the investigation itself inflicted its own traumas--turning neighbor against neighbor and confirming the fears of violence outsiders have done to this region for centuries. In The Third Rainbow Girl, Emma Copley Eisenberg uses the Rainbow Murders case as a starting point for a thought-provoking tale of an Appalachian community bound by the false stories that have been told about. Weaving in experiences from her own years spent living in Pocahontas County, she follows the threads of this crime through the complex history of Appalachia, revealing how this mysterious murder has loomed over all those affected for generations, shaping their fears, fates, and desires. Beautifully written and brutally honest, The Third Rainbow Girl presents a searing and wide-ranging portrait of America-divided by gender and class, and haunted by its own violence.

Описание: "The people's guide to paradox." "A redemptive tragicomedy of life's inherent absurdity." "Mind-bending brain-teasers about the meaning of life " "For people in no shape for the human condition." "A real iconoclassic " -- All humor is philosophical inquiry. But Ludwig Wittgenstein went further and wrote: "An entire treatise of philosophy could be written that consists entirely of jokes." Author Evan Hodkins similarly wrote: "The next religion will consist of nothing more than an expansive catalog of humor." And Cesar Cruz said art should "comfort the disturbed, and disturb the comfortable." And now, dear reader, you have stumbled upon a curious but relatable collection of all-original jokes that blends all three ideas together into easy-to-digest, family-friendly, bite-sized nuggets called laughorisms (This is the large-print version. A fun-sized/pocketbook version is also available by clicking on All 3 Versions.) --- "The book that happened while you were making other plans " "A revolutionary approach to maintaining the status quo " "For people in recovery from the self-help industry."
--- (From the Preface) - It's rare to find a trifecta of thought streams and modalities as unexpectedly intertwined as what we find in this one-of-a-kind collection of original, one-sentence jokes - aphorisms (or "laughorisms") known as The Eisenberg Principles. In these one-sentence vignettes, the fields of philosophy and psychology marry into uproariously funny trysts of paradoxical play, each one like a piece of deluxe brain-candy which is no less serious in its treatment of the human condition as it is absurd. We are not only afforded a chance to glimpse into the thoughts of this wondrously twisted thinker, we are challenged to follow him into the surprising and impossible rabbit holes of language he unearths on every page. F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time -- and still retain the ability to function." This catalog of contradictions is like a compendium of modern Zen koans that puts you through Fitzgerald's test, playing with the principles of paradox, polarity, and incongruity, and taking you from the "comforts of clich " to the "chasms of contradiction" with just a few strokes of a pen. --- "The book about quieting the mind that everyone is talking about " "Everything you need to know about futility in a single paperback." "The pocketbook guide to people." --- "Many of the jokes Eisenberg unspools have the psychic charge of a Zen koan, the brevity and immediacy of a haiku, and aim to capture the absurdity of an existence that can make the most sense when efforts to comprehend it are fully abandoned." Charles Brennan, Boulder Daily Camera. "Eisenberg uses verbal gymnastics to twist and stretch the boundaries of logic, throwing the semantics of everyday expressions into question - stirring our collective conversation about consciousness forward." Michael Travers, EJI --- This is the Large-Print size. There is also a fun-sized pocketbook edition for sale on Amazon, found by clicking on "All Three Versions" and exploring the drop-down menu).
