Book Synopsis Gothic Tales: Dark Poetry by : Jody R. Lagreca
Download or read book Gothic Tales: Dark Poetry written by Jody R. Lagreca and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-13 with total page 70 pages. 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

Download or read book American Gothic Tales written by Various and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1996-12-01 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This remarkable anthology of gothic fiction, spanning two centuries of American writing, gives us an intriguing and entertaining look at how the gothic imagination makes for great literature in the works of forty-six exceptional writers. Joyce Carol Oates has a special perspective on the “gothic” in American short fiction, at least partially because her own horror yarns rank on the spine-tingling chart with the masters. She is able to see the unbroken link of the macabre that ties Edgar Allan Poe to Anne Rice and to recognize the dark psychological bonds between Henry James and Stephen King. In showing us the gothic vision—a world askew where mankind’s forbidden impulses are set free from the repressions of the psyche, and nature turns malevolent and lawless—Joyce Carol Oates includes Henry James’s “The Romance of Certain Old Clothes,” Herman Melville’s horrific tale of factory women, “The Tartarus of Maids,” and Edith Wharton’s “Afterward,” which are rarely collected and appear together here for the first time. Added to these stories of the past are new ones that explore the wounded worlds of Stephen King, Anne Rice, Peter Straub, Raymond Carver, and more than twenty other wonderful contemporary writers. This impressive collection reveals the astonishing scope of the gothic writer’s subject matter, style, and incomparable genius for manipulating our emotions and penetrating our dreams. With Joyce Carol Oates’s superb introduction, American Gothic Tales is destined to become the standard one-volume edition of the genre that American writers, if they didn’t create it outright, have brought to its chilling zenith.

Book Synopsis Christina Rossetti's Gothic by : Serena Trowbridge
Download or read book Christina Rossetti's Gothic written by Serena Trowbridge and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-10-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poetry of Christina Rossetti is often described as ‘gothic' and yet this term has rarely been examined in the specific case of Rossetti's work. Based on new readings of the full range of her writings, from ‘Goblin Market' to the devotional poems and prose works, this book explores Rossetti's use of Gothic forms and images to consider her as a Gothic writer. Christina Rossetti's Gothic analyses the poet's use of the grotesque and the spectral and the Christian roots and Pre-Raphaelite influences of Rossetti's deployment of Gothic tropes.
Download or read book Southern Gothic written by Eryk Pruitt and published by New Lit Salon Press. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southern Gothic: New Tales of the South is an anthology like no other. Featuring over 15 stories and poems by new and veteran authors, the writing reflects a diverse range of Southern experience. From the post-Katrina New Orleans of Rose Yndigoyen’s “Long Gone Girls” and the deep-rooted family of Hardy Jones’ “Visitin’ Cormierville” to the racial tension of Eryk Pruitt’s “Them Riders” and Shane K. Bernard’s “The Phrenologist,” the anthology represents a new interpretation of the long-established Southern Gothic genre. Each story is paired with original art by Nathan Mark Phillips. Phillips’ images pull at the underside of the stories and bring a thoughtful level of interpretation to each work. Poking at the heart of Southern distinctiveness, these writers and artists make a bold statement about the south in the 21st century.

Book Synopsis Japanese Gothic Tales by : Kyoka Izumi
Download or read book Japanese Gothic Tales written by Kyoka Izumi and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resisting the various forms of realism popular during the Meiji "enlightenment," Izumi Kyoka (1873-1939) was among the most popular writers who continued to work in the old-fashioned genres of fantasy, mystery, and romance. Gothic Tales makes available for the first time a collection of stories by this highly influential writer, whose decadent romanticism led him to envision an idiosyncratic world--a fictive purgatory --precious and bizarre though always genuine despite its melodramatic formality. The four stories presented here are among Kyoka's best-known works. They are drawn from four stages of the author's development, from the "conceptual novels" of 1895 to the fragmented romanticism of his mature work. In the way of introduction, Inouye presents a clear analysis of Kyoka's problematic stature as a "great gothic writer" and emphasizes the importance of Kyoka's work to the present reevaluation of literary history in general and modern Japanese literature in particular. The extensive notes that follow the translation serve as an intelligent guide for the reader, supplying details about each of the stories and how they fit into the pattern of mythic development that allowed Kyoka to deal with his fears in a way that sustained his life and, as Mishima Yukio put it, pushed the Japanese language to its highest potential.
