简介:Summary: Publisher Summary 1 On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? The author's new novel is about a man who travels back in time to prevent the JFK assassination. In this novel that is a tribute to a simpler era, he sweeps readers back in time to another moment, a real life moment, when everything went wrong: the JFK assassination. And he introduces readers to a character who has the power to change the course of history. Jake Eppingis a thirty-five-year-old high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching adults in the GED program. He receives an essay from one of the students, a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night fifty years ago when Harry Dunning's father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. Harry escaped with a smashed leg, as evidenced by his crooked walk. Not much later, Jake's friend Al, who runs the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to 1958. He enlists Jake on an insane, and insanely possible, mission to try to prevent the Kennedy assassination. So begins Jake's new life as George Amberson and his new world of Elvis and JFK, of big American cars and sock hops,of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake's life, a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time.

Publisher Summary 4 ON NOVEMBER 22, 1963, THREE SHOTS RANG OUT IN DALLAS, PRESIDENT KENNEDY DIED, AND THE WORLD CHANGED. WHAT IF YOU COULD CHANGE IT BACK? In this brilliantly conceived tour de force, Stephen King鈥攚ho has absorbed the social, political, and popular culture of his generation more imaginatively and thoroughly than any other writer鈥攖akes readers on an incredible journey into the past and the possibility of altering it. It begins with Jake Epping, a thirty-five-year-old English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching GED classes. He asks his students to write about an event that changed their lives, and one essay blows him away鈥攁 gruesome, harrowing story about the night more than fifty years ago when Harry Dunning's father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a sledgehammer.

Time-travel has never been so believable. Or so terrifying.
简介:In Iris Murdoch's 1954 debut novel, Jake Donaghue is an engaging young writer. In his overintellectualized angst, Jake details a convoluted romantic impossibility--he loves Anna, who loves Hugo, who loves Sadie, who loves Jake. His betrayal of his best friend's trust, his emotional indifference in most of his relationships, and his failed first book eventually leave Jake in existential hell.
简介:The Sun Also Rises is the story of expatriate Americans and British in Paris between the wars. Talented and cynical, left without illusions by a war that killed many of their contemporaries, they suffered a failure of purpose that Gertrude Stein identified and named "The Lost Generation."Jake Barnes is a tragic hero, damaged beyond repair in the war. He has the bad luck to meet and fall in love with Brett Ashley, a beautiful young Englishwoman. Worse, she finds in Jake everything she ever wanted but now cannot have. It is a hopeless and compelling relationship, told without affectation or sentiment by a young author just reaching the height of his powers.
简介:In SPARK: Be More Innovative Through Co-Creation , author John Winsor wants to inspire readers to think about innovation in new ways. At the foundation of innovation is the ability to understand a community and its individual members, well enough to anticipate what products and services might be needed in the future. In the simplest form, this means getting out of the office and exploring the customer's world. In the introduction, Winsor reveals how SPARK can help readers actively co-create new innovation solutions: "" SPARK is structured in four sections: Section One - The Team; Section Two - The Customer; Section Three - The Company; and Section Four - The Culture. Each of these sections represents a different part of the innovation ecosystem. Successful innovation happens where these four parts of the ecosystem interact and overlap in unique ways. ""Each chapter opens with an interview, called Inspiration, which offers a unique perspective on a specific innovation issue. The second segment in each chapter, called Tools, offers ideas on how to put into action some of the ideas that are discussed in the opening interview. ""The third segment, called Interaction, offers a place for readers to interact within the pages of the book, joining in the co-creative process. Each Interaction segment provides a provocative exercise or question and space to draw or write down your thoughts. There is also an online component to this section, giving people the opportunity to form a community around the ideas presented in SPARK and to actively co-create new innovation solutions. ""Lastly, the fourth segment of each chapter, called Resources, can act as a road map for further exploration on the subjects discussed in the chapter. ""One of SPARK's primary goals is to be a resource. My hope is that it can become an innovation journal for you, one that you will co-create with the wonderful people who have participated in this book. So, make SPARK yours. Write in it. Draw in it. Tape stuff to it. Rip it up! But, most of all, have fun with it! Become a part of the SPARK community."" Highlights In the spirit of co-creation, Winsor gathered several perspectives on innovation from innovative thinkers. Marketing, sales, and business professionals of all kinds will be inspired by: •Matt Jacobson, Quiksilver •Marsha Skidmore, Herman Miller •Christine Halvorson, Stonyfield Farms •Jake McKee, Lego •Mark Parker, Nike •Rob Bon Durant, Patagonia • Michael Perman, Levi Strauss & Co. • Jeff Garwood, Miller Brewing
简介:"In the waning days of World War II, Hitler gave his diary to a young aide for safekeeping. Now it's threatening to resurface, with explosive contents: the details of a meeting between emissaries of Hitler and Roosevelt to reach an armistice and turn their collective efforts against the Soviet Union. The American representative: someone very close to none other than the current president, Jake Cazalet. Powerful enemies of Cazalet will do anything to get their hands on that diary - and it is up to White House operative Blake Johnson and his colleague in British intelligence, Sean Dillon, to make sure they don't."--BOOK JACKET
简介:Iris Murdoch's first novel is set in a part of London where struggling writers rub shoulders with successful bookies, and film starlets with frantic philosophers. Its hero, Jake Donaghue, is a drifting, clever, likeable young man who makes a living out of translation work and sponging on his friends. A meeting with Anna, an old flame, leads him into a series of fantastic adventures. Jake is captivated by a majestic philosopher, Hugo Belfounder, whose profound and inconclusive reflections give the book its title - under the net of language.
简介:Colton H. Bryant was one of Wyomings虂 native sons and grown by that high, dry place, he never once wanted to leave it. "Wyoming loves me," he said, and it was true. Wyoming -- roughneck, wild, open, and searingly beautiful -- loved him, and Colton loved it back. As a child in school, Colton never could force himself to focus on his lessons. Instead, hed虂 plan where hed虂 go fishing later, or hed虂 wonder how many jackrabbits he might find on his favorite hunting patch, or hed虂 dream about the rides he would take on the wild mare he was breaking. "At my funeral, youl虂l all feel sorry for making me waste so much time in school," he said to his best friend Jake -- and it was true. Two things got Colton through the boredom of school and the neighborhood "K-mart cowboys" who bullied him: His best friend Jake and his favorite mantra, a snatch of a saying he heard on TV: Mind over matter -- which meant to him: If you dont虂 mind, it dont虂 matter. Colton and Jake grew up wanting nothing more than the freedom to sleep out under the great Wyoming night sky, to hunt and fish and chase the horizon and to be just like Coltons虂 dad, a strong and gentle man of few words. When it was time for Colton to marry and make money on his own, he took up as a hand on an oil rig. It was dangerous work, but Colton was the third generation in his family to work on the oil patch and he claimed it was in his blood. And anyway, he joked, he always knew hed虂 die young. Colton did die young, and he died on the rig -- falling to his death because the drilling company had neglected to spend two thousand dollars on the mandated safety rails that would have saved his life. His family received no compensation. But they didnt虂 expect to -- they knew the companys虂 ways, and after all as Colton would have said: Mind over matter. The moving, tough, and in many ways quintessentially American story of Colton H. Bryants虂 life could not be told without also telling the story of the land that grew him -- the beautiful and somehow tragic Wyoming; the land where there are still such things as cowboys roaming the plains, where its虂 relationships that get you through, and where a just, soulful, passionate man named Colton H. Bryant lived and died.
简介: YA The play opens with Frankie on the phone with his brother Jake, who claims to have killed his wife, Beth. Next, the lights come up on a hospital room where Beth lies, bandaged, aphasic, and confused. Alternating the action between platforms on either side of the stage where Beth s and Jake s families live, Shepard exposes the secrets of sordid pasts of insanity, alcoholism, and alienation. High-school theater students should find a number of short scenes suitable for two-person dialogues. Props and costumes would not be needed for classroom readings. A short radio monologue by Shepard and Joseph Chaikin, The War in Heaven, is included in the last 19 pages of the book. Music notes, a set description, and stage directions accompany the dialogue.

Then, the unthinkable happens: armed men emerge from the tugboat that is leadingher to sea, board the submarine, and man her controls. Before the destroyers nearby can react, the sub disappears.

简介: From the New York Timesbestselling author whose torrid tales are "legendary" (Robin Shone) comes another steamy story-set in the kitchen. World-renowned chef Jake Chambers could have had any ing?nue he wanted in California since the kitchen isn't the only room in the house where the hard-bodied hunk has special talents. Still, when he realized there might be more to life than glitz and silicone, he left for Minneapolis to buy a local joint and try to clear his head. But even though he's no longer serving the glitterati, that doesn't mean he's about to compromise quality and serve a Minnesota wine. However, local vintner Liv Bell-with curves even more delicious than his tapas-has other plans once she lays eyes on this Adonis. Determined to promote her vineyard's juicy bounty, this sun-kissed goddess might just bring Jake around to at least tastingwhat she has to offer.
简介:A Category 4 hurricane, with winds of up to 155 miles per hour, tears roofs off buildings, smashes windows and doors, and can send floodwaters up to the second floor. Evacuation is suggested for up to six miles inland. Hurricane Katrina was a Category 4 when she made landfall. Hurricane Simone is a Category 7--the biggest, strongest storm in recorded history. When she hits New York City, skyscrapers will fall. Subways and tunnels will flood. Lower Manhattan and much of Queens and Brooklyn will disappear under more than thirty feet of water. All along the Eastern Seaboard, towns and cities are being evacuated as wind-driven rain lashes the coast and storm surges crash through seawalls. Roads are packed with fleeing motorists whose cars are jammed with every personal possession that can be crammed in, plus family members, friends, and beloved pets. A huge natural disaster is brewing in the Atlantic. Except that Simone isnt虂 natural. Shes虂 the product of rogue weather science being wielded by billionaire Carter Thompson as part of a personal vendetta against US President Winslow Benson. Once Carter wanted to bring rain to the desert and feed the starving peoples of the planet. Now he wants to show Benson--and the rest of the world--just how powerful wind and water can be. If technology created Simone, perhaps technology can stop her. Its虂 up to Kate Sherman, once a member of Carters虂 weather team; and Jake Baxter, a weatherman for the CIA, to try, using a secret US Navy weapon. The catch? It has to be deployed inside the hurricane.

简介:Unlike any animated feature you’ve seen before, Rangois an utterly unique story from acclaimed director Gore Verbinski, and features the voice of Johnny Depp and other regulars from Verbinski’s Pirates of the Caribbeanfilms. Blending off-beat humor with a Gonzo visual style and the enduring heroic archetypes of the Western, this highly entertaining adventure marks the debut for Verbinski’s production studio, BlindWink, and is the first animated feature from Industrial Light & Magic. An actor by nature, Rango has developed a habit of trying on different guises while in his lonely cage?his head filled with dreams of being a swashbuckler, a musician, a knight, and many other leading man types. When this hapless reptile wanders into the town of Dirt, he can’t help but play to his audience, assuming the role of the Western hero. Boasting of his gun-slinging prowess to the locals, he inevitably stirs up a hornet’s nest. Soon he finds himself at the center of action, wearing the sheriff’s star and forced to take on the fearsome gunman Rattlesnake Jake. Rango, like its lead character, is a film that set out one day to find itself and did, to great effect. Illustrated with some of the most vivid and visually creative concept art produced for any animation to date, The Ballad of Rangotells its story like it is.
