Nick Bleszynski, "Bloodlust: The Unsavoury Tale of Alexander Pearce, the Convict Cannibal"
English | 2008 | ISBN: 1741667003 | EPUB | pages: 396 | 0.9 mb
Powerful and relentless, the hunger pursues you like a wild beast without respite. You can resist it for hours, even days, but it eventually overwhelms your reason with its desperate desire to be satisfied. Eat or be eaten-that was the terrible choice facing the eight convict bolters from Macquarie Harbour, Australia's most remote and brutal penal colony. Lost and starving after a week in a wilderness no white man had ever crossed, order breaks down when one finally gives voice to their secret thoughts, "I could eat a piece of a man." Soon betrayal, lies, and murder reign and the convicts start to fear each other more than the spears of the Aborigines. Who'll be served next? Will any of them reach the settled areas alive? Bloodlust is the story of this terrible journey as seen through the eyes of Irishman Alexander Pearce, who discovers what happens when men are pushed past their limits and what lies in the dark shadows beyond.

Jennifer D. Michael, "Blake And the City"
English | 2006 | ISBN: 0838756468 | PDF | pages: 235 | 52.4 mb
Though usually classified as a Romantic, Blake subverts and dissolves the binaries on which Romanticism turns: self and other, art and nature, country and city. Rather than reject the city outright like many of his contemporaries, Blake embraces it as the intricate workshop of human imagination. Each chapter of this book focuses on a specific text of Blake's that illustrates a particular conception of metaphorical embodiment of the city. These shifting metaphors emphasize the construction of all human environments and the need for imaginative labor to build and interpret them. This study seeks to bridge a gap between transcendent" and "historicist" readings of Blake while at the same time challenging assumptions that still color our view of the city in the twenty-first century."
