The Idiot Gods - David Zindell - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

The Idiot Gods - David Zindell - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Quite simply the best book about a whale since Moby Dick.The Idiot Gods is an epic tale of a quest for a new way of life on earth, told by an orca. David Zindell returns to the grand themes of Neverness in this uniquely moving book.When Arjuna of the Blue Aria Family encounters three signs of cataclysm, he leaves his home in the Arctic Ocean to seek out the Idiot Gods and ask us why we are destroying the world. But the whales’ ancient Song of Life is beyond our understanding, and we know nothing of the Great Covenant between our kinds. Arjuna is captured, starved, tortured and made to do tricks in a tiny pool at Sea Circus.His love for a human linguist gives him hope, even as he despairs that other people twist his words and continue the worldwide slaughter. As the whales'' beloved Ocean turns toward the Blood Solstice the fate of humanity hangs in the balance: for if Arjuna gains the Voice of Death he could destroy mankind. But if understanding can prevail, he may, through the whales’ mysterious power of quenging, create a new Song of Life and enable human evolution to unfold.

A Book of Common Prayer - Joan Didion - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

A Book of Common Prayer - Joan Didion - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

An engrossing examination of political and personal life in Central America, from the award-winning author of The Year of Magical Thinking. Writing with the economical swiftness and concentrated perception that has made her one of America’s most distinguished writers, Joan Didion creates a gleaming novel of innocence and evil.Set in the ruined Central American nation of Boca Grande, A Book of Common Prayer is the story of two American women and their conflicting experiences of wealth, politics and personal history. We follow the intriguing life of Grace Strasser-Mendana – an American expatriate and member of one of Boca Grande’s most influential families – alongside the story of Charlotte Douglas, whose daughter Medin has run off with a group of Marxist radicals. What follows is an exploration of the women’s ability to make sense of the behaviour that surrounds them, as their worlds are made hazy by the atmosphere of evil and innocence that envelops their strained and entangled lives.Writing with her inimitable mix of candid emotional frankness and razor-sharp political astuteness, Joan Didion’s third novel is at once utterly particular whilst emblematic of an age of unscrupulous authority and seemingly inevitable bloodshed.
