Crossroads in Literature and Culture
The book contains a selection of papers focusing on the idea of crossing boundaries in literary and cultural texts composed in English. The authors come from different methodological schools and analyse texts coming from different periods and cultures, trying to find common ground (the theme of the volume) between the apparently generically and temporarily varied works and phenomena. In this way, a plethora of perspectives is offered, perspectives which represent a high standard both in terms of theoretical reflection and in-depth analysis of selected texts. Consequently, the volume is addressed to a wide scope of both scholars and students working in the field of English and American literary and cultural studies; furthermore, it will be of interest also to students interested in theoretical issues linked with investigations into literature and culture.
All That Remains
McKenzie Cole is a private investigator with a Jersey attitude. When a dignified aging moralist hires him to reopen a forty-four-year-old unsolved murder case so she can nail the coffin shut on her estranged first husband, Cole is skeptical. But it’s a paycheck. Soon the “Hair”-raising mystery that ensues has Cole changing his tune. Challenged by conspiratorial cops anxious to keep the dead buried, a hermitic psychic harboring private visions of the past, and an assertive journalist with family secrets of her own, Cole finds himself back in school, where he learns that modern forensics applied to cold-case homicides can spawn unexpected results. In this latest McKenzie Cole tale—inspired by a true event—justice remains elusive until murder is laid to rest!
Martin Scorsese's Divine Comedy
Catherine O'Brien draws on the structure of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy to explore Martin Scorsese's feature films from Who's That Knocking at My Door (1967-69) to Silence (2016). This is the first full-length study to focus on the trajectory of faith and doubt during this period, taking very seriously the oft-quoted words of the director himself: 'My whole life has been movies and religion. That's it. Nothing else.' Films discussed include GoodFellas, The Last Temptation of Christ, Taxi Driver and Mean Streets, as well as the more recent The Wolf of Wall Street. In Dante's poem in 100 cantos, the Pilgrim is guided by the poet Virgil down through the circles of Hell in Inferno; he then c...
Dark Mercy
A well-meaning journalist’s ill-conceived exposé implicates Trenton’s long-tenured police chief in a scheme to deceive the public by underreporting its homicides to the National Crime Bureau. When the police chief suddenly disappears, McKenzie ‘Mac’ Cole, a private investigator with a Jersey attitude is called in to investigate. The search for the missing police chief and answers to the conundrum left in his wake leads Cole on a winding road down along the New Jersey Shore and into the police chief’s murky past. Tethered to the inquisitive female journalist the two find they have more in common than simply the goal of locating the enigmatic police chief and setting the record straight. When they discover that an obscure out of print book may hold the key to unlocking the secret to the mystery behind the manipulated records, the chasm in their relationship only widens until they find themselves on opposite sides of the table.
