Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In a world bereft of common sense or decency, social service or grace, DUCK redux is the story of a duck who saves the life of a man.DUCK redux is both allegory and memoir, peopled and storied by Nic's work as a volunteer crisis counselor in Los Angeles, helping and holding others' pain. The book revisits the feature film DUCK (2005) which Nic wrote and directed as a cautionary tale set in the near (but at that time avertable) future. However, with society devolving and history repeating, DUCK redux takes place present day. This book is written in the hopes, still, of effecting change. More of Nic's work can be found at and "I've always believed that if, together, we can find some beauty and humor in the pain and sadness of life, we may just be okay for this world. In such, I hope DUCK redux offers you pause for thought and room for joy. With love." - Nic Bettauer, author"Bettauer tells a story bursting with heart, humanity, and vulnerability. It is about the difference that one man (or duck) can make in the world, and how quickly that world can change. Both heartfelt and heartbreaking, Arthur's tale is one that's sure to touch readers at their core. A beautifully vulnerable look at life, death, and love." - Kirkus Reviews"Libraries and readers seeking literary, philosophical, psychological examinations of life's meaning and survival tactics will find DUCK redux an outstanding tale of discovery, recovery, and growth. Its ability to interconnect the lives of two species and personalities makes for an uplifting survival story that will soothe and attract a wide audience." - D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Canary is the raucous, harrowing, deeply engaging tale of an irreverent investigator exploring a social ill, perhaps at her own expense. This is serious entertainment. --'Canary introduces Detective Winifred 'Freddie' Dauer, a complex cop battling life-and-death stakes both in her fractured mind and on her perilous beat. In this gripping debut, Nic Bettauer crafts a raw, funny tale of resilience, unraveling secrets, and a New York Christmas that's getting way too bloody. From the electrifying opening to the devastatingly emotional climax, Canary grabs you and doesn't let go.' - Larry Karaszewski, Co-screenwriter of Ed Wood, The People vs. Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon, The People vs. O.J. Simpson, and Co-creator of American Crime Story'An unforgettable detective with a New York health crisis on her hands as well as in her life battles with wit and tenacity. Dark truths are revealed as this stunning and timely novella progresses, making it even more riveting and harrowing as the mysteries unfold. Using crystal-cut sentences winnowed to perfection, be prepared to be dazzled and hooked by Canary for the entire ride.' - Yannick Murphy, Author of This is the Water, The Call, Signed, Mata Hari, and The Sea of Trees'Hard-boiled and haunted, sharp-tongued and laugh-out-loud funny, Freddie is a self-professed 'live wire in a shit storm,' implacable in her pursuit of answers in the face of trauma, chaos and uncertainty. Canary is a taut, propulsive read, with pitch-perfect dialogue and an unforgettable protagonist.' - Reid Sherline, Author of Harvard Review Chapbook Prize Winner, Rapture'A wry lens into the intricacies of human vulnerability and tenderness, and the limits of empathy in the face of loneliness and mystery.' - Dave, Middle-aged man at large'This book flies - it is very funny and the prose is beautiful, the characters and dialogue are deep and sharp. Nic is a wonderful writer. And there is such a sense of love in it. I absolutely adored this book. Canary exists perfectly as-is, in literary form, but it is also calling to be adapted as a streamer or movie.' - Evan Dunsky, Screenwriter, Creator of 'Nurse Jackie''Right up my alley. Gave me chuckles.' - Anonymous, Ne'er-do-well'Nic takes Canary where few contemporary authors dare. It's splattered with bloody noir and still, this is New York and for every scene set in dour municipal palaces of pain there is hope to be found, but in, maybe hysterical hands here, just as rapidly lost.' - LamontPaul for Outsideleft Literature.…
