English | June 28, 2024 | ISBN: 9529490356 | True EPUB | 144 pages | 0.5 MB
Like Black Mirror on steroids, The Darkest Timeline issues 9 vignettes of doom in the form of theoretical essays that outline not the likelihood, but the certainty of our demise as a species. Taking into account an array of apocalyptic modalities, Bram E. Gieben shows us with sardonic wit and erudition that there may be no silver lining. We are left to choose how to countenance our demise. The moment for bleak critical theory capped off with a wistful longing and silver linings has passed: "… it is time to stop imagining alternate worlds, and confront whatever monsters are lurking in the basement."

Black September 1918 WWI’s Darkest Month in the Air


Free Download Black September 1918: WWI’s Darkest Month in the Air by Norman Franks, Russell Guest, Frank Bailey
English | September 27, 2018 | ISBN: 1911621114 | 192 pages | PDF | 23 Mb
The follow-up to Bloody April 1917 continues fifteen months later into World War I. Much had happened over this period. More battles had been fought, won and lost on both sides, but now the American strength was feeding in to France with both men and material. With the mighty push on the French/American Front at St Mihiel on 12 September and then along the Meuse-Argonne Front from the 26th, once more masses of men and aircraft were put into the air. They were opposed by no less a formidable German fighter force than had the squadrons in April 1917 although the numbers were not in their favour. Nevertheless, the German fighter pilots were able to inflict an even larger toll of British, French and American aircraft shot down, making this the worst month for the Allied flyers during the whole of World War I – and this just a mere six weeks from the war’s bloody finale. As with their previous book, the authors of Black September 1918 have analysed the daily events throughout September with the use of lists of casualties and claims from both sides. The book also contains seven detailed appendices examining the victory claims of all the air forces that fought during September 1918. Although it is difficult to pin-point exactly who was fighting who high above the trenches, by pouring over maps and carefully studying almost all the surviving records, the picture of ‘who got who’ in the air slowly begins to emerge with deadly accuracy. Coinciding with the centenary of the end of World War I, Black September 1918 is a profusely illustrated and essential reference piece to understanding one of the crucial months of war in the skies.

In Darkest Capital Collected Poems


Free Download Drew Milne, "In Darkest Capital: Collected Poems"
English | 2017 | pages: 432 | ISBN: 1784104906 | EPUB | 1,0 mb
In Darkest Capital gathers all of Drew Milne’s poems up to 2017, including two major uncollected sequences, "Blueprints & Ziggurats" and "Lichens for Marxists". A Scottish poet working out of the modernist avant-garde, through pop and art rock, Milne moves between Beckett and Brecht, through punk and beyond. Along the way there are homages to Mina Loy, Gertrude Stein, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Frank O’Hara, Kurt Schwitters, Ian Hamilton Finlay, John Cage and Tom Raworth. His poems do not break down into form and content but insist on a continuity between lyrical purpose and critical thinking. An ark of ecological resistances to late capitalism, Milne’s Collected Poems captures the "skewed luxuriance" (Guardian) of his eco-socialist poetics.
