Homer's Ill Iliad

Homer's Ill Iliad

HOMER'S ILL ILIAD is adult satirical literature featuring adult language and humorous adult situations. The poet/bard Homer, reputed to have been blind, is credited with orally describing the Iliad (the story of the end of the ten-year Trojan War), and the Odyssey, the epic tale of the Greek hero Odysseus, who had been punished by Poseidon (Neptune, the sea god) for ten-long-years after the Trojan War. Homer had lived during the time when alphabets and writing were being developed (around 1,000 BC), so his two epic poems were later recorded by educated scribes and both stories exist today in their present forms. Around 1184 BC, King Agamemnon of Mycenae, and his brother, King Menelaus of Sparta, had led the great expedition of a thousand Greek ships and 50,000 warriors against the Asia Minor city of Troy. The kings of the Greek city states were notorious pirates and marauders, but to glamorize their siege upon Troy, a mythological story involving Helen of Sparta, wife of King Menelaus, claimed that she had been wooed by Prince Paris of Troy to elope to Asia Minor. Thus, Helen of Sparta soon became Helen of Troy, and her abduction became the principal cause of the Trojan War. The Trojan War, fought during the late Bronze Age, had taken almost ten-long-years, and the lengthy conflict was finally won when Odysseus, a brilliant schemer and ball-breaker, had a magnificent Wooden Trojan Horse built, and then had the Greek warriors situate the structure outside the main gates of Troy. The city was strategically located at the Hellespont Channel between Greece and Persia (now Turkey). Greek heroes were hidden inside the stomach of the colossal horse, and during the night, the warriors stealthily climbed-down a rope, opened the gates to Troy, and allowed thousands of Greek warriors to enter, rampage, sack and plunder.

The Timeless Time Machine is adult satirical literature featuring adult language and adult situations. The setting is London, England, 1899, at the turn of a new century, and the exciting advances of science and technology are dominant in the minds of people throughout the Western World. Herbert George Wells (1866-1946) was born in England, and by the turn of the century, became one of the Founding Fathers of science fiction. Wells' most famous novels are The Time Machine, War of the Worlds and The Invisible Man, which were written and published between 1895 and 1905. H.G. Wells was a great student of history, and loved thinking about mankind's ultimate destiny. In his stories, H.G. Wells often tells through his characters what he believes is wrong with civilization, so that's why the author never ran out of characters for his popular novels. By mentally taking his readers into the future, Herbert George Wells skillfully demonstrates exactly where the human race would be evolving unless science, culture and emotional growth change their present courses. The Timeless Time Machine is a new adult-oriented satirical version of H.G. Wells' short classic novel, The Time Machine.

The poet/bard Homer, reputed to have been blind, is credited with organizing the Odyssey, the epic tale of the Greek hero Odysseus, who was punished by Poseidon (Neptune, the sea god) for ten-long-years after the Trojan War. Homer had lived around the time when alphabets and writing were developed (around 1,000 BC), so the bard's epic poem was later recorded by educated scribes and exists today in its present form. In 1184 BC, King Odysseus was returning home from the Trojan War to Ithaca, his native island off the coast of Greece. The Greek hero had an armada of twelve ships upon leaving Troy, and his famous confrontation with the contemptible Cyclops (son of Poseidon, whom Odysseus had blinded) was one major episode in a ten-year mis-adventure after leaving Troy. King Agamemnon of Mycenae, and his brother, King Menelaus of Sparta, had led the great expedition of a thousand Greek ships and 50,000 warriors against the Asia Minor city of Troy. The Trojan War had taken ten-long-years to fight, and the lengthy conflict was finally won by Odysseus, a brilliant schemer, who had designed the famous Trojan Horse. The cunning Greek warriors situated the structure outside the main gates of Troy, which was strategically located at the Hellespont Channel located between Greece and Asia Minor (now Turkey). Odysseus had been away from Ithaca for 20 years; ten years fighting in the Trojan War, and another ten years being tormented in a series of mis-adventures caused by Poseidon, for the returning Ithacan King blinding the sea-god's son, the one-eyed Cyclops. Homer's epic poem the Iliad is the story of the Trojan War, and the Odyssey recounts the fantastic challenges endured by the hero Odysseus, who survived an incredible ten-year journey home to be reunited with his faithful wife, Queen Penelope.

Shakespeare: Slammed, Smeared, Savaged and Slaughtered

Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces
Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces is adult literature that satirizes classic children's folk tales, fables and fairy tales into more mature presentations featuring adult language, content and humor.

Adult renditions of "The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse," "The Boy Who Cried Wolf," "The Wind and the Sun," "A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing," "The Lion and the Mouse," "The Crow and the Pitcher," and "The Rabbit and the Turtle" are all cleverly portrayed.

Jay Dubya thoroughly corrupts "The Three Little Piglet Brothers," "The Flashing Elves," "The Golden Goose's Goosing Curse," "The Notorious Sleeping Beauty" and "Petite Red Riding Hood." Other classic stories that are not saved from degeneration are "Jack's Magnificent Beanstalk," "Hansel and Gretel Dumkoff," "Little Ebony Sambo," "Rapunzel's Draping Hair" and "Tom Thumb's History." Finally, the author completely corrupts into adult parody rewrites "Peter W. and the Wolf," "The Rumpelstiltskin No-Spin Zone," "Beauty and the Beastly Beast," "Cinderella's Fella'" and the classic folktale "Flaky Snow White and the Seven Midgdwarfs." Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces is Jay Dubya's twenty-first book. This book is definitely not written for or to be read by children.
