Bernie Wrightson - Frankenstein.pdf (Comic)

Cover of Frankenstien comic by Bernie Wrightson
PDF Pages: 46 | File Size: 19.8 MB |

Bernie Wrightson makes a very magnificent rendition of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein in this comic (or should we call it a graphic novel or an illustration book?). The novel itself is one of the earliest science fictions, a classic horror, and an everlasting masterpiece of Mary Shelley. And this particular work of Wrightson is a masterpiece also. The black and white and rather raw style captures the atmosphere of the story of Frankenstein absolutely well. From each of illustration, we can feel the terror and mystery, with just the right amount of darkness in it.

Aldous Huxley - Brave New World.pdf (eBook)

Posted on 2:55 AM by Unknown
PDF Pages: 112 | File Size: 1MB |

A Customer Review at Amazon.com (429 of 487 people found the following review helpful. 5 out of 5 stars):

As critic and best-selling author Neil Postman points out so well in the introduction to his book "Amusing Ourselves To Death", we have congratulated ourselves prematurely by figuring we made it past the totalitarian nightmare state depicted in George Orwell's gripping cautionary tale "1984". Perhaps, Postman suggest, we should remember another visionary totalitarian nightmare scenario and use it to critically examine the contemporary state of social and psychological well-being. Of course he was referring to Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World, written before Orwell's by 15 or so years, and even more frightening in its own way in the world it describes. More and more, that frightening vision looks like our contemporary world.

Picture his ironic portrait of a populace doped into Nirvana on "soma" (read Prozac and Zoloft), isolated and diverted by petty preoccupations in mindless trivial pursuits (read video games and internet surfing to all the porno sites), oblivious to anything not directly pertaining to themselves and totally unaware of the degree to which they are being socially, economically, and politically co-opted. Beginning to sound more familiar? Remember, says Huxley, brute force is not the only method an oligarchy can use to influence, manage, and finally control our hard-won freedoms and liberties; it can be done with over-indulgence and the deliberate fertilization and promulgation of apathy through self-absorption, as well.

Even Huxley says (circa 1960, almost 30 years after the original publication) in the preface of the revised version of the book that he is alarmed as to how quickly the sort of events he figured might take a hundred years such as the appearance of political internationalism and transnational corporate entities are already arising and beginning to control more and more of the substance of our social, economic, and political lives. . .

Want to find out more? Read this book, but do so slowly, taking notes, recognizing how many contemporary parallels there are to each of the "whimsical details" he conjures up, and then figure out in your own mind how very close he was to prognosticating just how far we have come toward the "Brave New World" in which everyone's soul and awareness is for sale . . .

Cover of George Orwell - 1984 1984.pdf eBook | Author: George Orwell | PDF Pages: 112 | File Size: 1MB |

In his novel, 1984, George Orwell took totalitarian as the main the theme, the possibility of it and its threats toward the live of a society. In the totalitarian society of 1984, there's no truth except what the "Big Brother" said. The term freedom only has one meaning, which is total surrender to the Party, and love is a concept so unfamiliar, except off course the love for the Party.

Audrey Niffenegger - The Time Traveler's Wife.pdf (eBook)

Posted on 5:42 AM by Unknown
The Time Traveler's Wife PDF eBookPDF Pages: 385 | File Size: 1.5 MB | 

A romantic story with a whole different taste and perspective.

"The Time Traveler's Wife" by the American author Audrey Niffenegger is an interesting and powerful books. Audrey did an amazing job in combining some of the most complex ideas--such as time travel, marriage, love, children, literary and artistic considerations, religion, death, drugs, growth, loss, and to sum all of those, what it means to be human--and into a great work that can be said as literally poetic and with astounding clarity.

The characters are all great and so human people, each has strengths and weakness. How Henry, the time traveler, bumping from one point of time to another, cleverly isn't picked as the main line of the whole events in story, instead the events and conflicts are arranged and sequenced in such a way that you still move along with each character's growth as a person. Though it's no surprise that there were many surprises here and there.

Clare, the time traveler's wive herself, shows to readers something truly remarkable, to always be there for Henry, to always be the one who waits for her better half from the unpredictable journeys. t even worse, since both never know when will Henry go and will he return.
