Book excerpt: Hugh Walpole's skill at scene-setting and vivid plots, as well as his high profile as a lecturer, brought him a large readership in the United Kingdom and North America. Walpole sought critical as well as financial success, and longed to write works that equalled those of Trollope, Thomas Hardy and Henry James. He was a good friend of Virginia Woolf, and rated her as an influence; she praised his gift for seizing on telling detail: "it is no disparagement to a writer to say that his gift is for the small things rather than for the large ... If you are faithful with the details the large effects will grow inevitably out of those very details". Joseph Conrad said of him, "We see Mr. Walpole grappling with the truth of things spiritual and material with his characteristic earnestness, and we can discern the characteristics of this acute and sympathetic explorer of human nature." Check out this seven short stories by this author carefully selected by critic August Nemo: - The Whistle. - The Silver Mask - The Staircase. - A carnation for an old man. - Tarnhelm - Mr. Oddy. - Seashore Macabre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the book series 7 best short stories specials, selection dedicated to a special subject, featuring works by noteworthy authors. The texts were chosen based on their relevance, renown and interest. This edition is dedicated to Vampire. The vampire is now a fixture in popular fiction. Such fiction began with 18th-century poetry and continued with 19th-century short stories. Over time, some attributes now regarded as integral became incorporated into the vampire's profile: fangs and vulnerability to sunlight appeared over the course of the 19th century. Implied though not often explicitly documented in folklore, immortality is one attribute which features heavily in vampire film and literature. Much is made of the price of eternal life, namely the incessant need for blood of former equals. The critic August Nemo selected seven short stories that were essential to the formation of the vampire's folklore: - The Vampyre by John William Polidori. - Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. - Mrs. Amworth by E. F. Benson. - Dracula's Guest by Bram Stoker. - Ligeia by Edgar Allan Poe. - Clarimonde by Théophile Gautier. - The Lair of the White Worm by Bram Stoker.
