Not Akhmatova - Poems and Adaptations

Noah Berlatsky

Summary

Anna, the border washed your tongue from our tongue.
 
Anna, the border is a voice that said our name.
 
 
 
“Not Akhmatova” by Noah Berlatsky navigates the intricate dance between homage and reinvention, drawing inspiration from the works of Russian poet Anna Akhmatova. A book of quasi translations, appropriations, and alienations, it is also an authentic and unique examination of rootlessness and the need to belong. Berlatsky’s argumentative and proud poems explore his own relationship with Russia as well as the concept of Jewish diaspora identity.

Apology by Plato

Scoobert Doobert, Plato

This isn't an apology. It's a journey back to ancient Athens for a thrilling courtroom drama... with Socrates' life on the line. 
Charged with religious blasphemy, the corruption of the youth, and the creation of new gods, Socrates recounts his journey to become the World's Wisest Man™ — with his tongue stuck firmly inside his cheek. Hear from the gadfly of Athens, as he's guided by the oracle at Delphi and discovers his inner daimons. 
"The Apology" is a captivating exploration of tragedy, philosophy, courage, comedy in the face of death and corruption, and the relentless pursuit of truth. This masterpiece by Plato is brought into the audiobook format by musician and producer, Scoobert Doobert. 
It's one of his favorites from the ancient world, one that deeply shaped his personal philosophy and artistic journey. And adding to the emotional punch, this dialogue is written by Plato, Socrates' disciple who watched his friend and mentor die at the hands of a corrupt jury. It's a positively metamodern tale and feels even more so with Mr. Doobert's slight changes to the public domain translation from Attic Greek. Your purchase includes a bonus podcast episode that follows the end of the audiobook. 
Visit www.ScoobertDoobert.Pizza to hear Mr. Doobert's music.

Vikings

History Nerds

Few are those that have not heard of the fearsome Vikings and their daring exploits. These Northern seafarers, the scourge of the Middle Ages, left their mark on the world’s history in a grand fashion. Courageous, defiant, and driven by the desire for exploration, the Norsemen were the most feared of all Medieval conquerors. Many thought them invincible, and they held many struggling Christian nations in their sway. From Scotland, England, France, and Ireland, down to the shores of Spain and the Baltic, the Vikings left their undeniable mark. Brutal conquest was not the only tool of their trade: these men were able seafarers and great explorers. Vikings discovered and established colonies in the Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland, and North America. Many agree that they were the first to set foot in the land we know today as Canada. All in all, the Vikings hold a vital role in the history of the world. Who knows how our world would look today if it weren’t for these grand Norsemen?
