And now A. R. Morlan returns to the scene of her classic horror novels, The Amulet and Dark Journey, with 25 horrific tales of men and women pushed beyond the limits of endurance.

The hints of otherworldly elements are used in just the right proportions to make one shiver." And Robert Reginald states: "She drives the stake of horror right through the center of your quivering heart!"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Death on the River, bestselling true crime author Diane Fanning recounts a tragic kayak accident that left one man dead—and his fiancée arrested for his murder. A DREAM GETAWAY. A REAL-LIFE NIGHTMARE... It seemed like the perfect romantic afternoon: a kayaking trip for two on the Hudson River. But it ended in tragedy when beautiful, blonde Angelika Graswald called 911 to report that her fiancé, the handsome and athletic Vincent Viafore, had fallen into the choppy frigid waters. Authorities assumed it was an accident. But when the bereft bride-to-be posted videos of herself doing cartwheels on social media—shortly before Vincent’s body was found—suspicions of murder rose to the surface... After hours of questioning, Angelika made several shocking admissions. She said she felt “trapped” and fed up with Vincent’s “demanding” sexual lifestyle: the nightlife, the strip clubs, the threeways. “I wanted him dead,” she had said, even though she insisted that she didn’t kill him. But as more lurid details emerged—including a $250,000 life insurance policy—a killer question remained: Did Angelika remove the plug of her fiancé’s boat...and knock away his paddle as he sank?
Book Synopsis From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death by : Caitlin Doughty
Download or read book From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death written by Caitlin Doughty and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times and Los Angeles Times Bestseller “Doughty chronicles [death] practices with tenderheartedness, a technician’s fascination, and an unsentimental respect for grief.” —Jill Lepore, The New Yorker Fascinated by our pervasive fear of dead bodies, mortician Caitlin Doughty embarks on a global expedition to discover how other cultures care for the dead. From Zoroastrian sky burials to wish-granting Bolivian skulls, she investigates the world’s funerary customs and expands our sense of what it means to treat the dead with dignity. Her account questions the rituals of the American funeral industry—especially chemical embalming—and suggests that the most effective traditions are those that allow mourners to personally attend to the body of the deceased. Exquisitely illustrated by artist Landis Blair, From Here to Eternity is an adventure into the morbid unknown, a fascinating tour through the unique ways people everywhere confront mortality.
Download or read book Widespread Panic written by James Ellroy and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-07-26 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the modern master of noir comes a novel based on the real-life Hollywood fixer Freddy Otash, the malevolent monarch of the 1950s L.A. underground, and his Tinseltown tabloid Confidential magazine. Freddy Otash was the man in the know and the man to know in ‘50s L.A. He was a rogue cop, a sleazoid private eye, a shakedown artist, a pimp—and, most notably, the head strong-arm goon for Confidential magazine. Confidential presaged the idiot internet—and delivered the dirt, the dish, the insidious ink, and the scurrilous skank. It mauled misanthropic movie stars, sex-soiled socialites, and putzo politicians. Mattress Jack Kennedy, James Dean, Montgomery Clift, Burt Lancaster, Liz Taylor, Rock Hudson—Frantic Freddy outed them all. He was the Tattle Tyrant who held Hollywood hostage, and now he’s here to CONFESS. “I’m consumed with candor and wracked with recollection. I’m revitalized and resurgent. My meshugenah march down memory lane begins NOW.” In Freddy’s viciously entertaining voice, Widespread Panic torches 1950s Hollywood to the ground. It’s a blazing revelation of coruscating corruption, pervasive paranoia, and of sin and redemption with nothing in between. Here is James Ellroy in savage quintessence. Freddy Otash confesses—and you are here to read and succumb.
Book Synopsis Let's Talk about Death (over Dinner) by : Michael Hebb
Download or read book Let's Talk about Death (over Dinner) written by Michael Hebb and published by Da Capo Lifelong Books. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of Being Mortal and When Breath Becomes Air, the acclaimed founder of Death over Dinner offers a practical, inspiring guide to life's most difficult yet important conversation. Of the many critical conversations we will all have throughout our lifetime, few are as important as the ones discussing death—and not just the practical considerations, such as DNRs and wills, but what we fear, what we hope, and how we want to be remembered. Yet few of these conversations are actually happening. Inspired by his experience with his own father and countless stories from others who regret not having these conversations, Michael Hebb cofounded Death Over Dinner—an organization that encourages people to pull up a chair, break bread, and really talk about the one thing we all have in common. Death Over Dinner has been one of the most effective end-of-life awareness campaigns to date; in just three years, it has provided the framework and inspiration for more than a hundred thousand dinners focused on having these end-of-life conversations. As Arianna Huffington said, "We are such a fast-food culture, I love the idea of making the dinner last for hours. These are the conversations that will help us to evolve." Let's Talk About Death (over Dinner) offers keen practical advice on how to have these same conversations—not just at the dinner table, but anywhere. There's no one right way to talk about death, but Hebb shares time—and dinner—tested prompts to use as conversation starters, ranging from the spiritual to the practical, from analytical to downright funny and surprising. By transforming the most difficult conversations into an opportunity, they become celebratory and meaningful—ways that not only can change the way we die, but the way we live.
Download or read book Klail City written by Rolando Hinojosa and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Klail City is the pivotal novel in HinjosaÍs continuing saga, the Klail City Death Trip Series. It is concerned with power as articulated through the disjunctive class and race relations between Texas Mexicans and Texas Anglos in the lower Rio Grande Valley. In his desire to help recreate the kaleidoscopic past, Hinojosa employs four generations of storytellers who thoroughly mesmerize the reader with their tales of tragic realism, alienation and desire. Klail City (in its Spanish version) is the winner of Latin AmericaÍs most prestigious literary award, the Casa de las Am?ricas Prize. It has been published in German and now, HinojosaÍs own English-language version is available. Rolando Hinojosa is the best known and most prolific Mexican American novelist. His works, which form a continuing, ever-evolving saga of life in the small border towns in TexasÍs lower Valley, are acclaimed for their fine sense of wit and pathos and their ability to capture the nuances of oral language.

Book Synopsis Rolando Hinojosa's Klail City Death Trip Series by : Stephen Miller
Download or read book Rolando Hinojosa's Klail City Death Trip Series written by Stephen Miller and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mirroring the linguistic and cultural evolution of those living on the Texas-Mexico border, Rolando Hinojosa's Klail City Death Trip Series examines relations between Mexican Americans and Anglo Americans born and raised in the fictional Rio Grande Valley town of Klail Citym Texas. Depicting the transformation of a place and its people "from a sleepy agricultural and ranching backwater of Mexican and American society and history" over a 30-year period, the series comprises fifteen books, published between 1973 and 2006, and reflects the importance of the growing Hispanic population in the U.S. The people of Hinojosa's Klail City, which has been compared to William Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County and Gabriel García Márquez's Macondo, have dealt with the same issues as their real-life counterparts living along the border, including discrimination, generational change, drug violence and the quest for women's rights. The editors of this scholarly volume assert in their introduction that the series, with volumes in English, Spanish and a mix of both languages, "may well be the most innovative and complex project of literary creation ever conceived and realized by a writer based in the United States." The eleven essays in this volume consider both broad and specialized aspects of the Klail City Death Trip Series. Divided into two sections, the chapters in the first half examine the series as a whole and look at general topics such as cultural hybridity, the individual's needs versus those of society and the influence of Hispanic literary tradition on Hinojosa's work. The essays in the second half explore more specific aspects, including Klail City youth going to war, women's search for autonomy in the face of societal and familial tradition and a comparison of Hinojosa's The Valley with Larry McMurtry's The Last Picture Show as examples of Hispanic and Anglo literary traditions that developed in the same region. Also included is an interview with Rolando Hinojosa, the Ellen Clayton Garwood Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Texas at Austin. He is the recipient of numerous literary awards, including the most prestigious prize in Latin American fiction, Casa de las Américas, for the best Spanish American novel in 1976 and the Premio Quinto Sol, the National Award for Chicano Literature, in 1972. This collection is an essential tool for scholars and students alike in understanding the work of Rolando Hinojosa and the people living a bilingual, bicultural life along the Texas-Mexico border.
