Book Synopsis Dark Tales to Light the Way by : R. M. Ahmose
Download or read book Dark Tales to Light the Way written by R. M. Ahmose and published by R.M. Ahmose. This book was released on 2006-02 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark Tales to Light the Way presents an excursion into the darker regions of the mind and explores some of the more pathological aspects of its functioning. Indeed, the author develops characters that gradually emerge as distinct and memorable, perhaps even unforgettable, individuals whose thought processes and feelings are described often in enthralling detail and become integral facets of the essential plots of each tale. On occasion, the stories visit unsettlingly adult themes. These, however, are treated with delicate regard for the sensibilities of the reader and unfold without gratuitous sensationalism--but simultaneously describe each situation with a clarity that brings the events alive in the imagination. Bestowed, by all appearances, with an uncanny understanding of the mental workings that motivate human behavior, the author displays an equally dazzling ability to describe these phenomena via the written word. From eight-year-old Phoebe Oats, in story one, who demonstrates an adult-like quality for defying the pleas of individuals much her elder (even a guardian angel), to Carl Horton, in story two, whose psychological attributes can baffle the most clinically adept practitioner, the characters and events of Dark Tales are designed to haunt the mind.

The output of their work has embraced a wide range of genres, including the neo-noirs Blood Simple and The Man Who Wasn’t There, theabsurdist comedy Raising Arizona, and the violent gangster film Miller’s Crossing. Whether producing original works like Fargo and Barton Fink or drawing on inspiration from literature, such as Charles Portis’ True Grit or Cormac McCarthy’s No Country for Old Men, the brothers put their distinctive stamp on each film. In The Coen Brothers Encyclopedia, all aspects of these gifted siblings as writers, directors, producers, and even editors—in the guise of Roderick Jaynes—are discussed. Entries in this volume focus on creative personnel behind the camera, including costume designers, art directors, and frequent contributors like cinematographer Roger Deakins and composer Carter Burwell. Recurring actors are also represented, such as Jeff Bridges, Steve Buscemi, George Clooney, John Goodman, Holly Hunter, Frances McDormand, and John Turturro. Each entry is followed by a bibliography of published sources, both in print and online. From Blood Simple to Inside Llewyn Davis, The Coen Brothers Encyclopedia is a comprehensive reference on two of the most significant filmmakers of the last three decades. An engaging examination of their work, this volume will appeal to scholars, researchers, and fans interested in this creative duo.

Download or read book Tiny Love written by Larry Brown and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Larry Brown wrote the way the best singers sing: with honesty, grit, and the kind of raw emotion that stabs you right in the heart. He was a singular American treasure." —Tim McGraw A career-spanning collection, Tiny Love brings together for the first time the stories of Larry Brown’s previous collections along with those never before gathered. The self-taught Brown has long had a cult following, and this collection comes with an intimate and heartfelt appreciation by novelist Jonathan Miles. We see Brown's early forays into genre fiction and the horror story, then develop his fictional gaze closer to home, on the people and landscapes of Lafayette County, Mississippi. And what’s astonishing here is the odyssey these stories chart: Brown’s self-education as a writer and the incredible artistic journey he navigated from “Plant Growin’ Problems” to “A Roadside Resurrection.” This is the whole of Larry Brown, the arc laid bare, both an amazing story collection and the fullest portrait we’ll see of one of the South’s most singular artists.
