The American Nightmare: Don DeLillo's Falling Man and Cormac McCarthy's The Road presents an extensive analysis of two novels by the two most prominent contemporary American writers.The book searches into the stylistic and linguistic complexities of those two post-9/11 novels and explores the ways in which they respond to the public discourse produced in the aftermath of the event. Szalan's reading of the texts offer valuable insights into the inscription of ideology in literary works which simultaneously reinstate and resist its hegemony.

"ln the early years of the 1950s the United States saw the rise of one of the most colorful, powerful and dangerous demagogues this country has ever known; a man who so successfully manipulated the fears and frustrations of millions with his lies, bullying, and charges of high treason that he was able to utterly disrupt the processes of government, to cow congressmen, senators, cabinet officers and presidents, to demoralize the armed forces, and to impose a reign of terror on many thousands of innocent private citizens. So pervasive was the influence of Senator Joseph R. McCarthy on the national scene that he gave his name to an entire era of recent American history. Yet "Tail-Gunner Joe" (as his campaign posters called him) was a paradox. For behind his blustering threats lurked a lack of confidence, a neurotic craving for love. Nor did the junior senator from Wisconsin entirely create his times; rather he was shaped by them. They were troubled times of rapid and far-reaching change; times when traditional American values were sacrificed on the altar of mass paranoia; times when our public life seemed informed by ignorance and fear. THE AMERICAN NIGHTMARE recreates the tensions and high drama of those years. It brings to life the personalities and the times and seeks to understand the basic causes of an ugly era in American history, an era of national and international blundering for which we are still paying."--Dust jacket.

As a participant in and negotiator of NAFTA and the World Trade Organization, Thomas A. Hockin provides a unique insider's look at the political challenges to free trade and U. S. trade policy. In this timely and important book, Hockin explores the fragile ecosystem of multinational trade alliances in the face of insurgent political protests from both the left and the right. The American Nightmare takes a close look at WTO obstacles such as the failure of member countries to follow dispute settlement arrangements; the conflict surrounding the membership of China; and, the mercurial administration of trade law in the U.S. Hockin makes a convincing case for the current incoherence of American trade policy, warning of a possible collapse of the world economy if the WTO's ability to settle disputes becomes further frustrated. With lucid analysis of the systemic problems involved in free trade and thoughtful possible solutions to them, The American Nightmare is a clarion call for policy makers and a thought provoking read for those of us on the sidelines.

Discover how to create a better life for yourself through voluntary simplicity—rushing less, working less, and spending less. "Stressed out? Overworked? Spending too much, or just concerned about the effect of your lifestyle on the environment? Buy (or borrow) The Circle of Simplicity now. Spend the next few hours reading it, preferably in your neighborhood café (in true Cecile Andrews style). It is an eloquent, passionate, well-written, funny book. I couldn't put it down." —Juliet Schor, author of The Overworked American For a growing number of people, simplicity has been a path to experience the joy in life, to cherish its richness and vitality. It strips away the burdens of our daily lives so that we are left with exhilaration, spirit and fullness. These people are finding that less—less work, less rushing, less debt—is more—more time with family and friends, more time with community, more time with nature, and more time to develop a meaningful and compelling spirituality. In The Circle of Simplicity: Return to the Good Life, author Cecile Andrews helps you discover and create the good life for yourself. She is renowned for her workshops on voluntary simplicity and her seminars on creating simplicity circles, where people explore their own life stories and share information and knowledge, helping one another develop lives of simplicity and satisfaction. The circles not only give people the tools to change, but they also fill unmet needs for community and intimacy and the desire to search for truth in the company of kindred spirits. "What a fine book. Cecile's passion—for people, for lifelong learning, and for creating a better world—makes The Circle of Simplicity a powerful manual for exploration and change. It's practical and personal, challenging yet simple." —Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin, coauthors of Your Money or Your Life
