Book excerpt: The Glass is a contemporary Gothic Horror ghost story. Christopher Higson procures an ornate, cheval-glass mirror amongst the cultural carrion at a house clearance on the ancient and heirless Bradley Estate, a gift for his wife, Maria, to help save their dying marriage. Their young son, William, caught in the crossfire in the battle between his parents, suddenly finds an imaginary friend, Jenny, and the only time he sees her is in the mirror. Amongst the blood and broken glass, Christopher and Maria try to save their marriage, and themselves, as they discover the horrible truth about William's imaginary friend. Does anyone know the damage we inflict upon our children? Innocently or deliberately, ignorantly or purposefully, does anyone see anything more than themselves in a mirror? There is no horror except that which we create for ourselves.
Download or read book Benson's House written by John Milner and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-07-23 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1864 art debut of Sarah Taggart Benson’s spurred wide acclaim among New York society. Many thought a woman artist would not be taken seriously, but her popularity grew, spawning an insurrection against rigid Victorian standards, and a following of counter-culturists known as the Urban Romantics. They congregated in the downstairs galley and in the basement tavern of the brownstone she shared with her husband in Greenwich Village. The rooms evolved in accord as a center of a new artistic universe known affectionately as Benson’s House. Then one day the balance became unbroken. Throughout five generations, her family kept hold of the reins of the chariot, cultivating art and music to restore the balance and speak for the common man against the oppressions of institutional authority. The culture grew with certain defiance, nurturing slave songs to speak boldly throughout Post Impressionism, Jazz, Flappers and Bootleg Whiskey, The New Masses, Folk Music, Beatniks, and disciples of Rock & Roll. This is their saga - an American love story accumulated over a hundred years - passed down through the generations by tavern discourse.
