Competing for Elvis

By: Savas John

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The characters in Competing for Elvis have something unique that draws them to competitions. This story has nothing at all to do with their beloved Elvis but rather with their mission to resurrect his life. Jeremy Shrinks, Bobby Shrimp, Terance Best, and Henry (Hank) Hunk meet secretly in Las Vegas to compete in the Elvis competition. Jeremy is a convenience store clerk living in a trailer park in Yukon, Oklahoma; Bobby owns an auto body shop in Lynn, Massachusetts; Terance is a multimillionaire developer residing in Coral Gables, Florida; and Hank is an unemployed architect living with his mother and father in Los Angeles. Jeremy, who looks nothing like Elvis, has the perfect Elvis voice. Bobby looks and sounds somewhat like Elvis; however, its his body language that sets him apart from the others. Terance lacks Elviss looks and voice; however, his presence portrays Elviss charisma and persona pervasively. Hanks good fortune is he looks exactly like Elvis. Ironically, for Jeremy, Bobby, Terance, and Hank, winning is not why they continuously compete, but rather its an ends to a means to find Elvis, and their persistence finally pays. This trip to Las Vegas brings about miraculous changes for them. Their relentless vigil to find Elvis bonds them together and allows them to achieve their ultimate mission while competing for Elvis.

Other Worlds Than These

By: John Joseph Adams

What if you could not only travel any location in the world, but to any possible world? We can all imagine such “other worlds”--be they worlds just slightly different than our own or worlds full of magic and wonder--but it is only in fiction that we can travel to them. From The Wizard of Oz to The Dark Tower, from Philip Pullman's The Golden Compass to C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia, there is a rich tradition of this kind of fiction, but never before have the best parallel world stories and portal fantasies been collected in a single volume--until now.

The Trial of Emory Board and Other Teddy Bear Mysteries

By: John Landrum,Mary D. Martin

In these humor-filled stories, the fast-paced, action-packed police procedural genre is translated into a world inhabited exclusively by teddy bears. Inspector Blue Bearolli of the Grunion Beach P.D. Homicide Division and his two detectives, Bernard Bearstein and Billye Bare, combine their considerable talents to solve baffling murders committed by the ruthless and unscrupulous teddy bear criminal element. In The Trial of Emory Board, the inspector unravels the curiously entangled motivations that led to the shooting of a jumper from a high-rise apartment building as he plummeted to his death. Was this a suicide or a murder? In Hit Bear, Billye is befriended by a handsome cowbear who has been hired to eliminate the inspector and very nearly succeeds. In Billye, the beautiful young detective has difficulty maintaining her objectivity as she works on a case that chillingly recalls an episode in her youth when she was accused of murder.

A Cry for Help

By: John Duffield

A Cry For Help provides the solution to a very old puzzle. Namely, why is it that millions of people desperate for happiness can't find it in thousands of self-help books? Every one of these books has tools in it that can help you and I make our dreams come true. So what on earth can be wrong? The answer is unbelievably simple, but very difficult to believe. It's this. By far most of us have no idea what our own dreams are. To make our dreams come true after all, we must know what those dreams are first. A Cry For Help reveals that a single sinister fear... of being judged....is keeping our dreams from us, and how to take it away. Once this fear is removed, our dreams flow back into our lives like water, and every single self-help book can help make them real. John Duffield

Jansenism and England

Moral Rigorism Across the Confessions

By: Thomas John Palmer

Jansenism and England: Moral Rigorism across the Confessions examines the impact in mid- to later-seventeenth-century England of the major contemporary religious controversy in France, which revolved around the formal condemnation of a heresy popularly called Jansenism. The associated debates involved fundamental questions about the doctrine of grace and moral theology, about the life of the Church and the conduct of individual Christians. Thomas Palmer analyses the main themes of the controversy and an account of instances of English interest, arguing that English Protestant theologians who were in the process of working out their own views on basic theological questions recognised the relevance of the continental debates. The arguments evolved by the French writers also constitute a point of comparison for the developing views of English theologians. Where the Jansenists reasserted an Augustinian emphasis on the gratuity of salvation against Catholic theologians who over-valued the powers of human nature, the English writers examined here, arguing against Protestant theologians who denied nature any moral potency, emphasised man's contribution to his own salvation. Both arguments have been seen to contain a corrosive individualism, the former through its preoccupation with the luminous experience of grace, the latter through its tendency to elide grace and moral virtue. These assessments are challenged here. Nevertheless, these theologians did encourage greater individualism. Focusing on the affective experience of conversion, they developed forms of moral rigorism which represented, in both cases, an attempt to provide a reliable basis for Christian faith and practice in the fragmented intellectual context of post-reformation Europe.

The Bounds of Possibility

Puzzles of Modal Variation

By: Cian Dorr,John Hawthorne,Juhani Yli-Vakkuri

In general, a given object could have been different in certain respects. For example, the Great Pyramid could have been somewhat shorter or taller; the Mona Lisa could have had a somewhat different pattern of colours; an ordinary table could have been made of a somewhat different quantity of wood. But there seem to be limits. It would be odd to suppose that the Great Pyramid could have been thimble-sized; that the Mona Lisa could have had the pattern of colours that actually characterizes The Scream; or that the table could have been made of the very quantity of wood that in fact made some other table. However, there are puzzling arguments that purport to show that so long as an object is capable of being somewhat different in some respect, it is capable of being radically different in that respect. These arguments rely on two tempting thoughts: first, that an object's capacity for moderate variation is a non-contingent matter, and second, that what is possibly possible is simply possible. The Bounds of Possibility systematically investigates competing strategies for resolving these puzzles, and defends one of them. Along the way it engages with foundational questions about the metaphysics of modality.

Ethics and Nostalgia in the Contemporary Novel

Ethics and Nostalgia in the Contemporary Novel

By: John J. Su

Images of loss and yearning played a crucial role in literary texts written in the later part of the twentieth century. Despite deep cultural differences, novelists from Africa, the Caribbean, Great Britain, and the United States share a sense that the economic, social, and political forces associated with late modernity have evoked widespread nostalgia within the communities in which they write. In this original and wide-ranging study, John J. Su explores the relationship between nostalgia and ethics in novels across the English-speaking world. He challenges the tendency in literary studies to characterise memory as positive and nostalgia as necessarily negative. Instead, this book argues that nostalgic fantasies are crucial to the ethical visions presented by topical novels. From Jean Rhys to Wole Soyinka and from V. S. Naipaul to Toni Morrison, Su identifies nostalgia as a central concern in the twentieth-century novel.

Dustin Grubbs: One Man Show

By: John J. Bonk

Dustin is a drama geek--and proud of it. Though he's at least half-nerd, and full of insecurities, he doesn't melt in the face of conflict--like when the sixth grade play he's assistant-directing and starring in, The Castle of the Crooked Crowns, seems doomed to failure at every turn. Then Jeremy Jason Wilder, international star of Dustin's favorite sitcom of all time, moves to Buttermilk Falls. Is it a blessing--or will Jeremy steal the show? Dustin Grubbs: One-Man Show is full of hysterical one-liners and slapstick that middle graders will love. And yet there's a deeper level beneath the "show" that will resonate with young readers--such as Dustin's difficult choice between a new and old friend; the guilt he feels for blowing off his adoring neighbor; his crush on his schoolteacher; his love for yet embarrassment about his oddball family; and Dustin's curiosity about--and longing for--his absent father.
