The Magus
Category : Other Stuff
Author : John Fowles
ISBN (No Dashes) : 0440351626
|
|
Description : A man trapped in a millionare's deadly game of political and sexual betrayal.
Filled with shocks and chilling surprises, The Magus is a masterwork of contemporary literature. In it, a young Englishman, Nicholas Urfe, accepts a teaching position on a Greek island where his friendship with the owner of the islands most magnificent estate leads him into a nightmare. As reality and fantasy are deliberately confused by staged deaths, erotic encounters, and terrifying violence, Urfe becomes a desperate man fighting for his sanity and his life. A work rich with symbols, conundrums and labrinthine twists of event, The Magus is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining, a work that ranks with the best novels of modern times.

The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory
Category : Other Stuff
Author : Carol J. Adams
ISBN (No Dashes) : 0826405134
|
|
Description : Basically the title says it all. The book discusses the sexual politics of meat, the rape of animals and the butchering of women, the masked violence and the vegeterian's muted voices, dismembered texts and dismembered animals, feminism the great war, and modern vegeterianism. It also discusses the distortion of the vegeterian body. I do say that it is a slow start, but once you get into the book it is very very good.
