Yes, by following these three simple steps.
1. Go to a bookshop or library
2. Buy or borrow 'Without Seeing the Dawn' by Stevan Javellana
3. Read 'Without Seeing the Dawn' by Stevan Javellana

You will now be familiar with the plot of 'Without Seeing the Dawn' by Stevan Javellana. Ta-daa!

You could try google, but it'll just turn up a bunch of kids looking for help with their homework on the book. Funny that.

a group of small, and also innocent, children visit a dentist who happens to be insane and as such, gouges out their eyes with a plaque scraper. they are of course then unable to see the dawn the next day, or anything else. the book ends with a dramatic courtroom scene.

Yeah, you can know the plot without seeing the dawn, except if you pull an all-nighter trying to write your paper.

Alternatively, close your curtains, and sit in a west-facing room.

We should start a sub-board where we pretend we'll help people with school assignments, but then we LIE to them and set them up for failure. Like subtle lies. Like instead of saying "Moby-Dick is a story about a guy with a huge penis," we'll be like "I think the critical moment in Pride and Prejudice is when Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy are alone in the coach, after the ball, and she tells him about how she was abused by her father."

Let's just do that here from now on.

Haven't we already been doing this?

Heh, yeah. We'll call it I Love Helping People Do Their Stupidly Easy English Homework. No Really, I Do.

Can I know the plot of the novel of Without seeing the dawn by Stevan Javellana?because I'm so interested in this novel.

― Reo Raquel Duyan, Friday, 6 January 2006 04:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Really, now! Kids these days have no imagination, no get-up-and-go, no entreprenuerial spirit.

Reo, here is what you must do:

1) Identify the smart kid in class who will actually read the book.
2) Bribe that student to tell you the plot. If you have no money, barter for it.
3) Resell the information to your classmates. You might even make a small profit!

― Aimless (Aimless), Friday, 6 January 2006 17:08 (eighteen years ago) link

1) Blind guy gets up a bit too early one morning
2) That's it

― Matt (Matt), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:02 (eighteen years ago) link

a plot worthy of beckett!

― Josh (Josh), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Seriously, Matt, Nanawrimo that novel next year, I will read it!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:46 (eighteen years ago) link

I think I'm going to have to now.

― Matt (Matt), Saturday, 7 January 2006 20:15 (eighteen years ago) link

You have to stick to that "That's it" though! I don't want 500 words of "blind man gets up in the morning" and then 49500 of "and so he didn't see the Dragonpop starfleet slithering down the sky, and certainly didn't know he'd be the one to save the world and teach it an important lesson about putting the able back in disabled."

― Casuistry (Chris P), Saturday, 7 January 2006 21:32 (eighteen years ago) link

What's weird about these threads is that like are they even books ILB has discussed? Are the googlers just finding us by searching for 'books' or something? I think they are all just cozen trolling up shit.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 8 January 2006 20:46 (eighteen years ago) link

"I blame cozen": The "I blame hstencil" of ILB.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Sunday, 8 January 2006 20:51 (eighteen years ago) link

Tch, kids can't even use Google.

"A ragtag group of desperate survivors in a Wisconsin town seek refuge in a large indoor mall, where they must learn not only to protect themselves from the ever-increasing zombie horde, but also to co-exist with each other as a last bastion of humanity. Sealed off from the rest of what used to be the world, the group uses every available resource (both within and without) in their against-all-odds fight to remain alive and human."

i hope there's an orange julius in that mall.

― Josh (Josh), Sunday, 8 January 2006 23:03 (eighteen years ago) link

otherwise those kids are FUCKED

― Josh (Josh), Sunday, 8 January 2006 23:03 (eighteen years ago) link

the group uses every available resource (both within and without)

They drink their own pee!!!

go to bed really late one night, sleep in/get up late, change your name to 'Stevan Javellana' and then you can say you got up 'without seeing the dawn' by Stevan Javellana

― StrangeDays (StrangeDays), Monday, 9 January 2006 01:10 (eighteen years ago) link

of course, you don't actually have to stay up late.

But it is a good excuse to.

― StrangeDays (StrangeDays), Monday, 9 January 2006 01:11 (eighteen years ago) link

So "Without Seeing The Dawn" is one of those Left Behind books?

― Abbadavid Berman (Hurting), Monday, 9 January 2006 05:41 (eighteen years ago) link

No worries Chris, at the start of the book he'll get up, and at the end he'll realise it's a bit too early. The in between should be "interesting"

― Matt (Matt), Monday, 9 January 2006 14:06 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm loving it! I'm loving it!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 9 January 2006 14:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Oooh, I smell a McDonald's tie-in. We could do some cross-promotional work. Maybe print the book on uncooked patties. Or is that Burger King, never mind.

― The droid army of the legacy press (bernard snowy), Sunday, 26 October 2008 05:40 (fifteen years ago) link

Ah, can we ever really know anything?

― alimosina, Sunday, 26 October 2008 23:38 (fifteen years ago) link

Wikipedia's plot summary is extremely helpful: "Stevan Javellana's Without Seeing the Dawn was all about the village and the man, the man who lived on the farm but became a rebel when one of the land owner betrayed the farmers. He tried the life on the city, but it was never easy for them."

No, it never was. It really never was. On the city.

the man, the man who lived on the farm, the man who became a rebel, the man who moved to the city when one of the land owner betrayed the farmers, the man who tried life in the city, them to whom the city was not not ammenabkle
