Vadim: The Guzun Bratva


Book Description

Social Syndicate Rejects A Dark Mafia Suspense Romance - Book 1 Vadim was the second born but his brother believed in equality… of power and responsibility. Vadim, his sister, Vanya, and the eldest, Arian, leaders of the Guzun Bratva, ruled Moldova as a team. Sabira Kovalyova How the hell I ended up on the plane of the very man I conned must have been fate’s attempt at humor. Believe me, I wasn’t amused when I recognized Vadim Guzun, the most feared of Bratva Leaders in the EU. Except I refused to back down. He got me into trouble, he will damn well help me escape the hounds hunting me… he had no choice. Not with my gun against his head! Vadim Guzun If there was one thing I abhorred, it was to have my authority mocked. The little Koval Bratva chit did just that by stealing my latest gun consignment. When I find her, she would realize the Guzun family took those who overstepped the Thieves’ Code seriously. How nice of her then to stow away on my plane, placing her right where I wanted her… under my power… or body, whichever would give me the most pleasure. Retribution always came with a price. Something the seductive little Bratva realized when I conceded to her demand for protection. Of course, as a gentleman I conceded; as a ruthless mafioso I offered her the only choice I was prepared to give… her freedom or her life. Except there were larger problems at play that threatened the Guzun Bratva's authority. Now, all bets were off. Those who dared rise against the most feared Mafia group in the EU, would soon realize they made an error in judgement... or die trying.

Marketing Literature and Posthumous Legacies


Book Description

Literature is not only about aesthetics, but also almost equally about economics. The successful marketing of an author and his literary works is more dependent on the activities of cultural merchants than on the particular words and phrases found in the author’s prose. Marketing Literature and Posthumous Legacies focuses on the creation of symbolic capital for the literary legacies of Leonid Andreev and Vladimir Nabokov that was eventually exchanged by cultural merchants for financial and ideological profit. Yuri Leving and Frederick H. White discuss the ways in which certain cultural merchants created symbolic meaning for these two authors through a process of collusion, consecration, and the marketing of tangible and intangible products that lead to some sort of transaction. The promotion and maintenance of posthumous legacies involves an intricate network of personal interests that drive the preservation of literary reputations.
