...what if he were right? Flemish author Paul Verhaeghen explores that possibility - and galaxies of others - in Omega Minor, his sprawling, provocative, nuclear nightmare of a novel. After appearing in the Netherlands and his native Belgium in 2004, and Germany in 2006, the book spent months on best-seller lists and won a periodic table of European literary awards. Verhaeghen gained further notoriety by declining his prize money to protest the Bush Administration's conduct of the Iraq...
...book has almost that many plots. Basically, it involves a Dutch cognitive psychologist, Paul Andermans, who is doing research at the University of Potsdam in 1995. After a violent run-in with those neo-Nazis, he recovers at a hospital in nearby Berlin. There he meets Jozef de Heer, an Auschwitz survivor who persuades Andermans to write down his life story, a gripping tale of escape and betrayal in the wartime German capital. Like nearly everyone in the book, De Heer isn't what he seems. Neither is Paul Goldfarb, a Nobel-prizewinning physicist who fled Nazi Germany to help...

However, this effect is dwarfed by the advantage they receive by getting more time to build momentum from a tiny base of energized supporters—witness the meteoric rise of the obscure Republican Ron Paul, who recently set a record for the highest fundraising total in one day, and the speedy ascent of Mike Huckabee, the new champion of evangelical Christians. Newspapers groan at the cost of covering so many candidates for so long, and pundits decry the supposed drain on America?...

We want to step up, too.” Harvard’s first big chance to score came when freshman forward Michael Biega, coming off of a hat trick Wednesday night, fired a low shot on Devine. Senior forward Paul Dufault and a Dartmouth defender simultaneously pounced on the rebound, and the puck flew over the cage in a scuffle for control. But the Crimson also survived tense moments in the second period. With sophomore Alex Biega in the penalty box for tripping, Dartmouth’s top scoring combination peppered Richter...
