Jon Stephen Fink

A classic rediscovered: Further Adventures is Jon Stephen Fink's wildly original, uproarious novel of superheroes and survival, now available for the first time in a briefer, tighter, "director's cut." A novel that presaged works like Michael Chabon's The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, Further Adventures is the unforgettable story of one man's half-blind but wholehearted attempt to right the wrongs of a society gone astray.

Liar ['l─½-╔Ör] (n): 1. A person who tells lies. 2. A writer."Lying is essential to good storytelling. Daily, we writers sit at our computers—or legal tablets or Underwoods—and write down a bunch of untruths, piling one on top of the other, page after paltering page. We compound them, massage them, edit them, spin them, cut-and-paste them, until we're satisfied that, despite how outlandish or otherworldly these lies are, you, the reader, will swallow them. "In that, we're ...

Just menus? Yes.

They transcend the self-assured shouting matches of this latest expression of the culture wars by engaging in rigorous, polychromatic Christian reflection that considers the extent to which the atheistic critique-both new and old-might help the church move toward a mor...

Each year we pay billions in fees to those who run our financial system. The money comes from our bank accounts, our pensions, our borrowing, and often we aren’t told that the money has been taken. These billions may be justified if the finance industry does a good job, but as this book shows, it too often fails us. Financial institutions regularly place their business interests first, charging for advice that does nothing to improve performance, employing short-term buying strategies th...
