Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a natural born poet since the age of seven, Jody LaGreca has a deep affinity for poetic form and dark fiction. GOTHIC TALES contains an assortment of Narrative Poems that flow like the storybook from hell. The poems are literary, sophisticated, forthright and gruesomely picturesque at times. The book is divided into five parts; the first section contains vampire poems that are gory yet evocative, with darkly romantic blood drinking, and tongue and cheek scenarios. Part Two is comprised of Halloween horror with the wiles of witches and the haunting of ghosts, who steal our dreams and waking hours. Part Three is hauntingly gruesome, involving thought provoking scenarios straight from the underworld. Part Four contains sagas involving death and threat. Part Five showcases an ensemble of graveside scenarios and the eeriness of reality. GOTHIC TALES is for lovers of the macabre and unexpected with an ironic twist to incite and inspire.Acclaim for GOTHIC TALES: "As I read GOTHIC TALES by Jody R. LaGreca, I imagined the author, draped in a black silk cape, writing these poems with a raven's quill under a full moon. The tone is lush, darkly romantic, and filled with macabre exuberance. Be sure to pick up a bottle of red wine to sip while you're reading this deliciously Gothic collection!"-- Mark McLaughlin, Bram Stoker Award winner for Best Poetry Collection"Jody R. LaGreca's Gothic Tales is a great collection of ballads: an equal mixture of the macabre and the beautiful. If you have ever felt the itch to read poetry out loud by candle light, while the wind howls outside your window, Gothic Tales is the collection for you."--Michael Walker, Author of "The Vampire Henry""Close your eyes and let Jody LaGreca lead you through the dark maze of Gothic Tales: Dark Poetry. It doesn't matter what strange and scary creatures you'll encounter on this darkly surreal sojourn: headless henchmen, hiding ghosts, flying witches, thirsty vampires, ghouls with golden teeth, screams or silence, skeletons or in the flesh, because along the way, Jody LaGreca whispers elegant words in your ear, encouraging you to journey into the dark places that chill your bones. Highly recommended!" --Michael McCarty, 5-Time Bram Stoker Finalist and author of Modern Mythmakers, A Little Help From My Fiends and co-author of Dracula Transformed and Lost Girl of The Lake

Book excerpt: A heart-wrenching first novel about the power of place and family ties, the weight of the stories we choose to tell, and the burden of those we hide Frozen in grief after the loss of her son at sea, Edith Baines stares across the water at a schooner, under full sail yet motionless in the winter wind and surging tide of the Northern Reach. Edith seems to be hallucinating. Or is she? Edith’s boat-watch opens The Northern Reach, set in the coastal town of Wellbridge, Maine, where townspeople squeeze a living from the perilous bay or scrape by on the largesse of the summer folk and whatever they can cobble together, salvage, or grab. At the center of town life is the Baines family, land-rich, cash-poor descendants of town founders, along with the ne’er-do-well Moody clan, the Martins of Skunk Pond, and the dirt farming, bootlegging Edgecombs. Over the course of the twentieth century, the families intersect, interact, and intermarry, grappling with secrets and prejudices that span generations, opening new wounds and reckoning with old ghosts. W. S. Winslow's The Northern Reach is a breathtaking debut about the complexity of family, the cultural legacy of place, and the people and experiences that shape us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelve Gothic tales of this collection span the nineteenth-century South and are from some of the most famous writers of the age, such as Edgar Allan Poe, to more recently rediscovered and now celebrated writers such as Kate Chopin and Charles Chesnutt, to the completely and unfairly obscure E. Levi Brown. Companion readings—some themselves quite chilling—are by celebrated writers and well-known historical figures, such as Thomas Jefferson, Charles Brockden Brown, Jacques Dessalines, and W. E. B DuBois. These readings place the fiction in the context of the South and the Caribbean: the revolution in Haiti, Nat Turner’s rebellion, the realities of slavery and the myths spun by its apologists, the aftermath of the Civil War, and the brutalities of Jim Crow laws.

When the sullen winds breath against his boarded up home, does he have the strength to resist its dark temptations?"Mother" - An orphan girl is given over to the nuns of St. Ambrose. She has difficulty fitting in until she meets her best friend, Sarah. However, not everything is as it seems and sometimes games go too far. "Le Château de Crane" - A prominent doctor receives a invitation to meet with an infamous psychologist in the middle of the night. Yet when he arrives, he is greeted by silence, shadows and rats."Tales of Enoch - The Watchers" - Harmon Burbanks is a salvage appraiser contracted to the Enoch Road Recyclers. He has been called far out into the desert to appraise a find made by the crew of Division 16. Expecting perhaps an old refrigerator or possibly a rundown rust of a car, Harmon is surprised when it's revealed to be a derelict human spacecraft, having crashed into the desert floor. During his appraisal, Harmon learns that the ship is more than just space debris waiting to be melted down but is the Narthex, the first carrack sent to colonize Alpha Centauri that went missing on its maiden voyage over 80 years ago.

Unlike other recent books in the field that focus on certain aspects of the Gothic, this work directs researchers to seminal and significant resources on all of its aspects. Annotations will help researchers determine what materials best suit their needs.

Book excerpt: “Full of rich language that is reminiscent of an old fairy tale. . . . [a] spine-chilling, creative work [and] a well-wrought fantasy.” —School Library Journal (starred review) Following a mysterious incident that leaves her feverish and sopping wet, Triss awakens to a world that’s eerily off-kilter. Her memories are muddled, her sister despises her, and when she brushes her hair, out come crumbled fragments of leaves. Is she going mad? Or has she endured a nightmarish chain of events? Is this related to the illnesses she’s had since her brother died in the Great War? And why is she so hungry? In her search for the truth, Triss ventures from the shelter of her parents’ protective wings into the city’s underbelly. There she encounters strange creatures whose grand schemes could forever alter the fates of her family, in an unnerving tale of one girl’s struggle to confront her darkest fears. “Few authors can evoke a twinned sense of terror and wonder better . . . Vivid, frightening, and inventive, with narrative twists and turns. . . . A piercing, chilling page-turner.” —Booklist (starred review) “Nuanced and intense.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Quiet but elegant prose moves the story seamlessly from an effectively creepy horror tale to a powerful, emotionally resonant story of regret and forgiveness.” —Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review) “Gorgeously written and disconcerting . . . Hardinge delves deeply into the darker side of family life.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Cuckoo Song transcends its teen-reader designation. The psychological and historical nuances . . . will mesmerize older readers as well.” —BookPage

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gothic verse liberated the dark side of Romantic and Victorian verse: its medievalism, melancholy and morbidity. Some poets intended merely to shock or entertain, but Gothic also liberated the creative imagination and inspired them to enter disturbing areas of the psyche and to portray extreme states of human consciousness. This anthology illustrates that journey. This is the first modern anthology of Gothic verse. It traces the rise of Gothic in the late eighteenth century and follows its footsteps through the nineteenth century. Gothic has never truly died as it constantly reinvents itself, and this lively, illustrated and annotated anthology offers students the atmospheric poetry that originally studded terror novels and inspired horror films. Alongside canonical verse by Coleridge, Keats and Poe, it introduces readers to lesser-known authors� excursions into the macabre and the grotesque. A wide range of poetic forms is included: as well as ballads, tales, lyrics, meditative odes and dramatic monologues, a medievalist romance by Scott and Gothic drama by Byron are also included in full. A substantial introduction by Caroline Franklin puts the rise of Gothic poetry into its historical context, relating it both to Romanticism and Enlightenment historicism. Although Gothic fiction has now been receiving serious critical attention for twenty years, Gothic verse has been largely overlooked. It is therefore hoped that this anthology will stimulate scholarly interest as well as readers� pleasure in these unearthly poems.
