Описание:
Butterfly Magic II is a children's Christmas fantasy set on the Central Coast of New South Wales on the east coast of Australia, where Christmas happens during the hot, sunny days of summer.
Events are triggered when a prank is played by one of three volunteer firefighters acting as Santa's elves. While escorting Santa to a village Christmas party, the prankster spies a scarecrow on a front lawn. He pulls the scarecrow out of the ground, placing it next to Santa on the fire truck.
They then travel to the Christmas party. But at the end of the day, the "elf" forgets to return the scarecrow, which is when the trouble begins. The scarecrow's owners demand its return and threaten retribution.
They abduct Jack, the grandson of one of the elves. Jack is taken to a small island off the coast of New South Wales and is caged inside a cave.
In his prison, Jack is visited by a witch, a serpent, and magical monarch butterflies.
This second book of a series features Rebecca, Fredericka, and Jack, children from the first book.

In this book Aaron Hillyer considers the implications of Maurice Blanchot's strange formulation: "Literature is heading to its essence, which is its disappearance." This quest leads Hillyer to stage a dialogue between the works of Blanchot and Giorgio Agamben. Despite being primary points of reference for literary theory, no significant critical work has examined their "literary" writings together. The Disappearance of Literature initiates this new trajectory through readings of Blanchot's The Unavowable Community and Agamben's The Open, two short books that harbor their most enigmatic writings. A series of related concepts--study, community, mysticism, and friendship--emerges from this pairing, and, Hillyer argues, forms the basis of a new vein of contemporary literature found in the novels and hybrid fictions of Enrique Vila-Matas, Anne Carson, and Cesar Aira.
