Peter the Slug has a dream. An impossible dream. He wants to run in the Great Forest Race. And nothing's going to stop him.

Sixteen year-old Michael Beatrice Evans of Normal, Idaho has a problem. He's reckless. He's arrogant. And he's too smart for his own good. He's also $20,000 in the hole after betting on Super Bowl XLIX. But Michael's got a scheme to fix all that. With the help of his brother and four friends, he quietly starts counterfeiting Dilly Bar coupons - selling the "purchased" ice cream for profit. Everything's going according to plan. And then all hell breaks loose. This is a story of friends and enemies, crime and punishment, love and loss. This is a dark satire, an ultra-violent thriller, an apocalyptic legend . . . this is The Seven Acts.

Peter the Slug has a dream. An impossible dream. He wants to run in the Great Forest Race. And nothing's going to stop him. (Greek translation by Valia Kapetanaki-Kearney.)

This little book was designed to introduce you to some basic principles of German. While it's not a "pocket phrase book" or a "vocabulary book," it is an ideal text for the serious student, traveler, and explorer searching for a fast introduction to the German language. Most importantly, this book is meant to be fun! We all learned our first language when we were kids. That's a fact worth keeping in mind. In one sense, learning the basics of another language asks that you become a little kid again, that you do things little kids do all the time: that you enjoy yourself without fear, that you make mistakes without worry, and that you play. If you can do that, if you play with the material that we've put together for you in this little book, then you'll learn some basic German, and you'll have fun doing it. Now, stop reading this English! Go GET YOUR DEUTSCH ON!

Genre is the classic, modernist method of identifying a movie. A movie is a Western. Or it a Film Noir. Or it is a Romantic Comedy. Or whatever.But what if, as Jacque Derrida has asked, there is something more going on?"What if there were, lodged within the heart of the law of genre itself, a law of impurity or a principle of contamination? And suppose the condition for the possibility of the law were the a priori of a counter-law, an axiom of impossibility that would confound its sense, order, and reason?" These postmodern questions destabilize not only the idea of individual genres, but the very idea of genre itself. Hence: neo-genres. Neo-genres are genres that understand, as it were, their own contingency. Neo-genres revel in their own self-consciousness. In this ground-breaking new book, film scholar Richard Gilmore reflects on these neo-genre films, and the wisdom - if any - that can be found in them.
