![]() ![]() Thanks to his rather convenient skills as a swimmer – and a little bit of being in the right place at the right time – he has managed to survive while others perished. Leo is a citizen of now-covered-in-water Rome. This pool will receive some rudimentary training and be put through testing to determine ultimate mission suitability.Īs readers, we are given insight into the realities of life on future Earth and the process of training and selecting mission participants through the perspective of two of the obviously gifted teens, Leo and Naomi. The first step in finding the ideal six teens to take on this admittedly lofty mission is selecting a pool of 24. Upon arrival, they will terraform the terrain, preparing it to support a civilization of humans. These teens will man a mission to Europa, an ice-covered moon of Jupiter. ![]() In a bid to save humans, leaders engage in a joint global effort to select a group of six exceptional teens. Fortunately for the characters in this novel, scientists have a plan – albeit a relatively hail-Mary one – to prevent human-kind’s imminent extinction. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the horror realm, his name gets passed around, though it may not carry the clout of, say, Stephen King. I had never read a Stephen Graham Jones novel before, but I’d been meaning to get to his writing for a long time. That it’s a success seems a foregone conclusion. NPR and the LA Times gave it favorable reviews, the latter of which praised it for reclaiming the “Indian curse” trope and appealing “to both the genre fan and the literary reader.” It may be a book discussed for general fiction awards as well as the Bram Stoker and Shirley Jackson awards. It’s on Time’s 100 Must-Read Books of 2020. It’s in the front displays of bookstores. ![]() The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones doesn’t hide the fact that it’s a horror novel, and it’s having a moment in the literary world. In the great literary-versus-genre divide, everyone seeks legitimacy or even vindication. We revel when a work of horror writhes its way in front of general audiences who accept and even champion it. ![]() We who like the scary, dark, and macabre tend to leap at the chance to claim a successful piece of literature or film as one of our own. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can track your delivery by going to AusPost tracking and entering your tracking number - your Order Shipped email will contain this information for each parcel.

In a society in which there is no law, and in theory no compulsion, the only arbiter of behaviour is public opinion. This illustrates very well the totalitarian tendency which is explicit in the anarchist or pacifist vision of society. This is clearly something which Orwell himself, and the majority of his readers who have just lived through a world war which opposed a regime which was totalitarian in its nature, would find it hard to agree with: ![]() For instance, Orwell argues that in Book IV of Gulliver’s Travels, Swift depicts totalitarianism, but because Gulliver (and, presumably, by extension, Swift himself) approves of the Houyhnhnms’ society, Swift admires the idea of a totalitarian society in which dissident opinion is unacceptable. ![]() |
