SThe Ungettable Joke is told in retrospect by two guys who were drawn into extraordinary circumstances. Individually, they are exposed to supernatural experiences which drive them to hit the road, one to escape, the other to seek the source of the experiences. These experiences seem to confirm a theory about an ungettable Joke developed by Dave, an engineer and NASA contractor. At an apparent chance meeting at a roadside diner, Dave explains his personal theories on humor and the ungettable joke to Bill, a high school math teacher. They wonder whether they have been pushed together by greater forces to discover the ultimate joke, a joke so funny that everyone laughs, but no one knows why. The main characters don "t have long to consider this question. The greater forces at work evidently don "t want them to discover the ungettable joke by sitting around and talking about it. Supernatural events continue to force the characters into action and an adventure they might prefer to avoid. They seek aid from an eccentric college professor, an archeologist who tells the story of an ancient Indian tribe, the Chimchuk, whose culture revered humor above all else. The professor, who seems to have an agenda of his own, is interested in a Chimchuk symbolic inscription Dave and Bill obtained. He is also obsessed with a certain Chimchuk artifact -- an amulet made in three pieces. The professor possesses only one piece, his enemy another, and the third is missing. The professor's enemy is a man who appears to be the leader of a cult that is based on Chimchuk culture. He claims to have special powers, drawn from his piece of the amulet, and convinces his followers that he can channel the spirit of the original crafter of the amulet, the great Chimchuk shaman and head joke-teller, Manash. Underlying the main plot, Dave is engaged to be married very soon, and the FBI has become involved due to suspected illicit drug activity in the Chimchuk cult. The interests of all concerned converge at a small town at the entrance to the Giant Sequoia National Park. There, the amulet, the cult, the FBI, and the pursuit of the ungettable joke come together in a Chimchuk cultural festival. The cult leaders at the festival intend to demonstrate the power of the amulet to the new Chimchuk nation. The wild scene and conclusion that follows reveal the realities behind the events, history, and meaning of all that took place, and points to a link between science and faith, seen and unseen, and what humor has to do with it.

Download and read online ebook Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald write by Therese Fowler. This book was released on 2013-03-26. Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. "When I saw that Amazon Prime was unveiling its original pilot for Z, a biographical series based on Therese Anne Fowler's novel about Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald, I raised a wary eyebrow. . . But I was wrong, oh me of little faith. . . I]t's an enveloping period piece, perfectly cast, and I would like to see the pilot green-lighted into a series so that we can see this romance go up like a rocket with one loud champagne pop and strew debris across mansion lawns and luxury hotel lobbies in its transcontinental path." --Vanity Fair I wish I could tell everyone who thinks we're ruined, Look closer...and you'll see something extraordinary, mystifying, something real and true. We have never been what we seemed. When beautiful, reckless Southern belle Zelda Sayre meets F. Scott Fitzgerald at a country club dance in 1918, she is seventeen years old and he is a young army lieutenant stationed in Alabama. Before long, the "ungettable" Zelda has fallen for him despite his unsuitability: Scott isn't wealthy or prominent or even a Southerner, and keeps insisting, absurdly, that his writing will bring him both fortune and fame. Her father is deeply unimpressed. But after Scott sells his first novel, This Side of Paradise, to Scribner's, Zelda optimistically boards a train north, to marry him in the vestry of St. Patrick's Cathedral and take the rest as it comes. What comes, here at the dawn of the Jazz Age, is unimagined attention and success and celebrity that will make Scott and Zelda legends in their own time. Everyone wants to meet the dashing young author of the scandalous novel--and his witty, perhaps even more scandalous wife. Zelda bobs her hair, adopts daring new fashions, and revels in this wild new world. Each place they go becomes a playground: New York City, Long Island, Hollywood, Paris, and the French Riviera--where they join the endless party of the glamorous, sometimes doomed Lost Generation that includes Ernest Hemingway, Sara and Gerald Murphy, and Gertrude Stein. Everything seems new and possible. Troubles, at first, seem to fade like morning mist. But not even Jay Gatsby's parties go on forever. Who is Zelda, other than the wife of a famous--sometimes infamous--husband? How can she forge her own identity while fighting her demons and Scott's, too? With brilliant insight and imagination, Therese Anne Fowler's New York Times bestseller brings us Zelda's irresistible story as she herself might have told it.
