UNTRUTHFUL SPEECH Authors Ron Cisneros and Michael Padjen introduce us to Nick Griego, an anguished young man struggling with the loss of his brother Steven to leukemia. Nick's anger with Steven's death drives him to become a staunch and vocal advocate against institutional pharma and traditional cancer research. Eventually burning out, Nick decides to take a break from his life in the States to volunteer as a teacher's assistant in Bangkok, Thailand, where he is recruited by a cunning Mossad agent, Talia Levy, who has been monitoring his advocating activity. Talia invites Nick to join her in a made-up group advocating for the same things Nick is impassioned about. Unbeknownst to Nick, his decision will eventually entangle him in a race to keep a significant new medical discovery out of the wrong hands. The story's cast includes the CIA, a spy cell being run out of a restaurant in Bar Harbor, a freelance spy from Hong Kong, an ex-CIA operative in Shanghai, loyal only to himself, and a hitman from Argentina, and an incredibly helpful rat. Nick embarks on a mission assigned by Talia to monitor the progression of the research being led by Elli Brunetta, a biochemist with a secret past, who has developed a genetically engineered coronavirus super vaccine based on a new medical technology called CRISPR. Nick takes a job with Elli's husband, Nigel Shackelford, an ex-MI6 agent, now a lobster boat captain turned smuggler. Although Elli's development of Intelligent CRISPR or I-CRISPR was meant to significantly curtail the threat of pandemics and treat cancer in ways unimagined, the world's dark side wants it badly. They are willing to kill for it when they discover I-CRISPR can be used as a weapon to stop created or natural viruses from spreading in one location while letting it expand in others. The story is a global adventure of espionage taken out of today's headlines, with Bar Harbor, Maine, Bangkok, Thailand, and Shanghai, China as the backdrops. "Untruthful Speech" is a remarkable thriller. A group of extraordinary individuals embarks on a deadly adventure searching for a stolen formula that can permanently alter the power structure of the world, leaving death and destruction in its wake.…

Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 20 pp, first edition. APPEARS NEW! An artist-produced exhibition of contemporary Native work in various media, organized in anticipation of the celebrations of the 500th anniversary of Columbus's so-called discovery of the Americas. The title is itself the exhibition's political statement: a deliberate counter-move to the celebratory framing already gathering momentum for 1992, insisting on an Indigenous perspective that had no reason to celebrate the event. The five artists whose work it documents are Shirley Bear, Lance Belanger, Maria Cisneros, Paul Clair, and Ron Noganosh.Shirley Bear (1936-2022) was a Wolastoqiyik artist, poet, traditional herbalist, and activist from Tobique First Nation in New Brunswick, part of the Wabanaki Confederacy. She studied photography and painting at the Whistler House Museum and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and received a Ford Foundation fellowship in 1969. Her gestural, painterly canvases drew extensively on Wabanaki cultural history and symbolism. She was a vocal advocate for pre-contact gender equity in Indigenous societies and in 1990 curated the touring exhibition Changers: A Spiritual Renaissance, a survey of art by Native women. She was named to the Order of Canada in 2011. Major works held by the New Brunswick Art Bank include Crane Woman, Abenaki Woman, and Moose with a Woman's Spirit.Ron Noganosh (1949-2017) was an Ojibwe artist born in Magnetawan, Ontario, from the Magnetawan First Nation near Parry Sound. He came to fine art through backgrounds in graphic design and welding, entering the University of Ottawa fine arts program in 1980, where he discovered collage, assemblage, and installation as his primary modes. He became one of the most significant Indigenous artists working in Ottawa, recognized as a pioneer in assemblage work combining traditional materials with found objects and consumer detritus, deploying humour and irony as tools for political critique. Central to his work were the complex and intertwined issues of survival in contemporary Native communities — language, the environment, territory, culture, identity, health, and self-governance — alongside an insistence that these issues were inseparable from broader global concerns.…
