Exploring Muslim-bating rhetoric, racist legislation, police surveillance, witch-trials and discriminatory policies towards Muslims in North America and abroad, the book defines genres and types of Islamophobia. Sheehi examines the works of rogue academics, commentary by mainstream journalists and campaigns by political hacks and special-interest groups. Some featured Islamophobes are Bernard Lewis. Fareed Zakaria, Thomas Friedman, David Horowitz, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Irshad Manji, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, John McCain, Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama. Sheehi posits that anti-Muslim theories and opinions operate on a Colonial era concept that Muslims, particularly Arab Muslims, suffer from cultural lacuna that proscribe progress, democracy and human rights. This idea drove the interventionist foreign policy of the Bush years and underpins Barack Obama’s new internationalism.

Georges Rodenbach Primeval and Other Times By Olga Tokarczuk Translated by Antonia Lloyd-Jones “...the hard passage of an imaginary village through a century of conflict, coups and decay. Overlooking all is a vain selfish God who has become thoroughly bored with mankind and who must play second fiddle in this pantheistic world.” – The Economist “...an epic novel drawing on magic realism...creating a world permeated with ancient myths, but firmly rooted in the present.” – Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung This epic is set in the mythical village of Primeval in the heart of Poland, where all events, even the bad and tragic, have their reasons for happening. The village, a microcosm of Europe, is guarded by four archangels who chronicle the lives of Primeval’s inhabitants through the feral 20th Century. Forceful and direct, the narrative follows Poland’s tortured political history from 1914 to present. This is a stylized fable as well as an epic allegory about the inexorable grind of time, the clash between modernity (the masculine) and nature (the feminine). ■ ■ POPULAR POLISH NOVEL, NOW IN ENGLISH translated into most European languages awarded the Passport Prize in 1996 and the Koscielski Prize in 1997 has won all of Poland’s top literary awards an acclaimed author of her generation.

Let There Be Light The Mysterious Journey of Cosmic Creativity By Henryk Skolimowski “Skolimowski’s philosophy of light is poetry – divine, creative, luminous poetry.” – David Skrbina, PhD, Department of Philosophy, University of Michigan “...a qualitative leap into a further vision of humanity, nature and the Divine: the trinity of Inner Illumination. His Eco-philosophy incarnates him as a new Gandhi.” – Professor Lokesh Chandra This third human millennium is a Millennium of Light – and human life is a unique form of existential sculpture, the basis of a new philosophical system, Eco-philosophy. Our existence is accomplished through our will and creativity, with the world as a sanctuary for that creativity. Light – pure, distilled, triumphant, and overwhelming in its unity and possibilities – created everything that we call Cosmos, Universe and Life. The story of the Universe is the story of evolving Light. Light is also intertwined with Love. Love is not accidental, but essential to the story of the Universe and ourselves. Equally essential are sacred symbols, thinking and art, tropes for the life that incessantly re-creates and transforms itself. The meaning of Life is simple: we are all truly one because we are all made of Light. This unity is tremendously reassuring and is a source of hope and optimism. Transcend barriers and embrace True Light to rediscover yourself. was born and educated in Warsaw, after which he received his DPhil at Oxford in 1964.

D M Mitchell The Starry Wisdom A Tribute to H.P. Lovecraft New Revised Edition Edited by D M Mitchell Introduction by Campbell Ramsey A long-overdue retrospective revealing this maligned genius to be a true prophet of the 20th century. First published in 1994, The Starry Wisdom originated the modern Lovecraft cult; in print ever since, it is now presented in this new edition. Here are contemporary visions of cosmic transformation, mutation and madness, many inspired directly by the life and writings of H.P. Lovecraft, others reflecting his strangely presentient themes in their own bizarre sub-texts. The primal beings of Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos stalk a post-modern landscape of social collapse, ethnic cleansing, genetic engineering and nuclear devastation – nightmare prophecies from his pulp pages now chillingly true. The undercurrents of sexual and ecological displacement which powered Lovecraft’s work are here laid bare. ■ THE BOOK THAT STARTED THE H.P.
