This book is enjoyable because of the sheer depth and complexity of the characters. It's a long one, and a good one, and filled with great psychology and insight on relationships, family & life.

This was my introduction to Tony Hoagland. I hear Garrison Keillor read one of his poems, and I about fell out of my chair laughing, and I ran out and found this book. Hysterical. But eloquent.

‘Patriotism’ became a clarion call for conservative political commentators after 9/11. Conservatives used it to marginalize political competitors who expressed doubts about the prudence of national security policy. How did ‘patriotism’ have such rhetorical power in the aftermath of 9/11 when political debates in America are more commonly dominated by the language of individual rights? Why is patriotism a value in a political system founded to protect citizens against an abusive government? Paul Kahn writes Putting Liberalism in its Place to tackle just this problem: how can the American government both have the authority to exert a claim of sacrifice on its citizens and be founded to protect individual rights, most essential of all the right to life? A traditional response to this question would rationalize this seeming paradox by arguing that a state to protect individual rights cannot exist unless citizens are willing to defend it. Citizens should thus be willing to sacrifice their lives if they want to live in a state that protects their individual rights. Kahn instead avoids this rationalization and insists on a radical alternative. He argues that people understand the state as the popular sovereign, as the manifestation of a transcendental ideal of communal self-governance. Kahn understands this popular sovereign as a mirror in which citizens see themselves and thus understand themselves as part of larger, historical project that extends backwards and forwards into time. Through this self-identification, citizens become willing to sacrifice themselves for the state because they derive substantial meaning and purpose from the historical, state project. To the citizen, this derivation of her purpose from the state makes the state’s death worse than her own death. Kahn boldly refutes liberalism in its description of the American state as an entity separate from the citizenry that exists to protect individual rights and instead insists that the American state exists as the manifestation of the body politic; the American citizenry. Under Kahn’s explanation, patriotism, not individual rights, is the ultimate value of the American state. His theory argues that the American Constitution is valuable not because of any particular system of government or set of individual rights that it enumerates, but because it is the American Constitution; our Constitution. Kahn radically places the state above the individual by not merely equating the state with the individual, but by rendering the state as a source of ultimate meaning for the individual. In Putting Liberalism in its Place, Kahn subtly but dramatically argues that America is not a culture that places individualism above all other values. For Kahn, patriotism, love of self-governance by the popular sovereign, first defines American politics. The strength of Putting Liberalism in its Place rests in the multiple analytical frameworks that Kahn pulls together from historical, literary, biblical, philosophical, and legal sources to radically revaluate the practiced values of American politics. Although this approach results in a somewhat fragmented, non-linear argument, it also results in a series of thought-provoking re-castings of the American political experience. The book is highly recommended for anyone tired of the standard political speak of contemporary commentators and in search of a new lens to view American politics.

Expected more. Mother going through "the change" and daughter trying to figure out what direction her life will go in. Lots of potential but got off track with the very long metaphors.

Balkanlar El Kitabı (2 Cilt Takım)-Kolektif TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Akçağ Yayınları

Originally published in 1992, BOX NINE remains as compelling and vital as the day it was first released. The book introduces readers to Quinsigamond, a a depressed New England factory down seething with violence and corruption that serves as the setting for O'Connell's next five novels. In this classic noir thriller, O'Connell creates one of his most memorable characters: Detective Leonore Thomas, an undercover officer "addicted to speed, rough sex, heavy metal and her gun." Sounds like my kind of woman. But Thomas is no two dimensional caricature; she is one of noir fiction's most interesting personalities. But perhaps the most compelling aspect of Box Nine is Lingo, a powerful new drug that acts on the brain's language centers. Its not just that Lingo makes for a hip new street drug; its unique relation to language allows O'Connell to explore the very nature of words and communication. The introduction of Lingo, and its attendant psychological and philosophical discussions, elevate this BOX NINE beyond mere genre fiction and into the realm of classic fiction.

Fault Line departs from the John Rain series that Barry is famous for but nerveless the story is wonderful. This is one which I finished off in only a few sittings within a day and a bit. Barry has created new fresh characters all with their merits and flaws as human beings they different beliefs and conflicts that help builds up a brilliant plot and creates tension between all characters in the story, This book is filled with Espionage, assassins, sex. It is all in here. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the black op/Assassin world. Wonderful Read 5 stars.

I read this book at the same time as The Poison Diaries because I thought it might help give me some more background on the plants mentioned in the novel. I'm glad I did, and thought it was fitting that the Alnwick Poison Gardens (those featured in/inspiring The Poison Diaries) were mentioned at the end of this book as "surely the best place in the world to see wicked plants". The book was fascinating, a quick, easy read, and the author did a great job of telling you what was interesting about a plant without going on too long for those of us who aren't really botanists. My only complaint was that there were too few illustrations. I would have liked to see each plant illustrated rather than maybe 1 in 10.
