The Final Catharsis
Bastien Monroe is a college student consumed by obsession in the wake of a breakup that he never recovered from. His new life consists of constantly reading books, watching movies, and studying philosophy to reject hedonism in the name of art and find the meaning of life. This obsession quickly changes him into an egotistical, hypocritical, and alienated figure whose new goal is to create a "New Era Through Art" and spread his knowledge and influence onto others. As other self-serving individuals entangle themselves in his creative mission, all chaos breaks loose in his mind and the world around him. Only in OBLIVION can Bastien find the true reason he is experiencing pain...
The Doctrine of Awakening

Italian philosopher Julius Evola pares away centuries of adaptations to reveal Buddhist practice in its original context. Most surprisingly, he argues that the widespread belief in reincarnation is not an original Buddhist tenet. Evola presents actual practices of concentration and visualization, and places them in the larger metaphysical context of the Buddhist model of mind and universe.

Bahram Beyzaie is one of Iran's leading playwrights and auteur filmmakers. This book examines several of Beyzaie's films and plays and their preoccupation with the modalities and transformations of Iranian contemporary, historical and mythical identity from different perspectives. The chapters analyse Beyzaie's influential plays such as Arash and So Dies Pahlevan Akbar and his filmic magnum opuses such as The Crow, Bashu, the Little Stranger and Killing Mad Dogs from a range of critical perspectives including ecofeminist, sociopolitical, new-historicist, archetypal and psychoanalytical readings. They also explore Beyzaie's dialogue with filmic genres such as noir, different Iranian languages such as Gilaki, Iranian epics and ritual practices such as ta'ziyeh plays and javanmardi chivalry cults. Together, the chapters show how Beyzaie's works negotiate narratives of belonging and undermine the dominant exclusionist discourses in Iran, and how they use the resources of Iranian folk and performance traditions to comment on the position of women, children, intellectuals, and minorities in society.
