BLACK & WHITE |
Lewis Shiner ( - ) http://www.lewisshiner.com |
The first Fiction Liberation Front Creative Commons licensed novel.
"Lewis Shiner's latest, Black & White, is killer. Strong characters, suspenseful situations, and tremendous insight. A novel that doesn't flinch from social issues, and is so gracefully written it makes you want to weep. Should not be missed. Lewis Shiner is the real deal, and this is his finest work."
--Joe R. Lansdale

Little Brother |
Cory Doctorow ( - ) http://www.craphound.com/ |
I'd recommend Little Brother over pretty much any book I've read this year, and I'd want to get it into the hands of as many smart 13 year olds, male and female, as I can.
Because I think it'll change lives. Because some kids, maybe just a few, won't be the same after they've read it. Maybe they'll change politically, maybe technologically. Maybe it'll just be the first book they loved or that spoke to their inner geek. Maybe they'll want to argue about it and disagree with it. Maybe they'll want to open their computer and see what's in there. I don't know. It made me want to be 13 again right now and reading it for the first time, and then go out and make the world better or stranger or odder. It's a wonderful, important book, in a way that renders its flaws pretty much meaningless.
-- Neil Gaiman, author of ANASI BOYS
A worthy younger sibling to Orwell's 1984, Cory Doctorow's LITTLE BROTHER is lively, precocious, and most importantly, a little scary.
-- Brian K Vaughn, author of Y: THE LAST MAN

"Over There" with the Australians |
R. Hugh Knyvett ( - 1918) |
This account should be taken with a grain of salt.
Knyvett received a fine tribute from Roosevelt, who called him a "Modern Galahad".
"No man", he wrote in the Independent, "could look at his face and not see that he combined, as few men do, the daring and the iron courage of the born fighter,
with the singularly gentle and lofty idealism, the same intensity of spirit which made him so formidable a foe in personal combat, also made him one of the most
convincing and effective speakers who ever stirred to action souls that had been but half awake."

Edward Noyes Westcott (1846 - 1898) |
1899 Best Seller.
A novel full of wonderful character sketches. David Harum, a dry and somewhat excentric country banker,
