Download or read book October Nights written by Kevin Lake and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-29 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the publishing of 'October Nights, ' a great void has been filled. Sure, we all loved creepy Halloween stories like 'The Tale Of The Golden Arm' and the short story collections such as 'Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark, ' when we were kids, but once we reached the age of majority, collections such as these, written on an adult level, simply did not exist. Until now!Acclaimed author Kevin E Lake has filled this void that's existed for far too long. With 'October Nights, ' Lake gives us, as adults, thirty one original spine tingling tales that will give us that feeling one only gets in October, when the leaves have changed, and jack o'lanterns begin popping up on porches and in yards all across America, and when the summer's heat has exited the room and the crisp, fall air has taken its place. That magical feeling that makes us believe that there may be something out there in the dark that we cannot see. Perhaps our old houses in which people have passed on to the other side, whether we are aware of it or not, really are haunted. All those things we hear going bump in the night might not simply be the roof cooling off from the day's heat, and popping, or the old wooden frames adjusting and settling with age. 'October Nights' provides us with one well written, terrifying tale for each night of the month of October. The only challenge the book presents is in the fact that its readers may not be able to help themselves to just one tale each night, rather, they may find themselves being far too tempted to blow through the entire work in one setting, because 'October Nights' is just that damn good! Just as Charles Dickens will always be remembered as the man who invented Christmas, due to his classic tale 'A Christmas Carol, ' Kevin E Lake, with the publishing of 'October Nights, ' will forever be remembered as the man who invented Hallo
Book Synopsis Selected Writings by : Gerard de Nerval
Download or read book Selected Writings written by Gerard de Nerval and published by Random House. This book was released on 2006-09-28 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet, visionary, short-story writer and autobiographer, Gérard de Nerval (1808-1855) explored the uncertain borderlines between dream and reality, irony and madness, autobiography and fiction with his groundbreaking writings. This comprehensive selection of his works includes 'Aurélia', the memoir of his madness; the haunting novella of love and memory 'Sylvie' (considered to be a masterpiece by Proust); the hermetic sonnets of 'The Chimeras'; as well as Nerval's experimental fictions and selections from his correspondence, which demonstrate his lucid awareness of how nineteenth-century psychiatry consigned his fertile imagination to the status of mental illness. Together these pieces confirm Nerval's place as a pioneering modernist, a precursor of the French Symbolists and a vital model for such writers as Marcel Proust, André Breton, Antonin Artaud and Michel Leiris.

Download or read book O'Nights written by Cecily Parks and published by Alice James Books. This book was released on 2015-03-23 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Cecily Parks' beautiful poems, the natural world teeters between being and seeming—the seeming a simulacrum projected onto the world by a mind's yearning, taxonomy and dread. Deeply metaphysical, and deeply attentive to our spiritual as well as physical uses and abuses of nature, O'Nights implicates language's —indeed, lyric poetry's—sad role in this endeavor."—Susan Wheeler In O'Nights, Cecily Parks constructs stunning manifestations of a modern Thoreauvian wilderness, investigating how the natural world gives shape to the self, body, and emotions. These lyrical, transcendental poems study the duality of nature's feminine and masculine identities, and in its simplicity, offers a space where humankind truly belongs. From "Bell": This progress, as in the wind-scalloped snowmeadow pretending to be moon. This love that sets us scrambling over the map's last ridge, our red hoods bright in shrunken sky. This metallic weather in which we are the ore. This alder. These crimson-tipped willows reverberating next to a river of turquoise ice. This following the deep tracks of one coyote stepping where another has stepped. This wilderness that we trespass, burning like berries in the juniper and becoming the air in the belfry. Cecily Parks is the author of the chapbook Cold Work (Poetry Society of America, 2005) and the collection Field Folly Snow (University of Georgia Press, 2008), which was a finalist for the Norma Farber First Book Award and the Glasgow/Shenandoah Prize for Emerging Writers. Her poems have appeared in Boston Review, Kenyon Review, Orion, Tin House, Virginia Quarterly Review, the Yale Review, and elsewhere. She lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Download or read book October Mourning written by Leslea Newman and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A masterful poetic exploration of the impact of Matthew Shepard’s murder on the world. On the night of October 6, 1998, a gay twenty-one-year-old college student named Matthew Shepard was kidnapped from a Wyoming bar by two young men, savagely beaten, tied to a remote fence, and left to die. Gay Awareness Week was beginning at the University of Wyoming, and the keynote speaker was Lesléa Newman, discussing her book Heather Has Two Mommies. Shaken, the author addressed the large audience that gathered, but she remained haunted by Matthew’s murder. October Mourning, a novel in verse, is her deeply felt response to the events of that tragic day. Using her poetic imagination, the author creates fictitious monologues from various points of view, including the fence Matthew was tied to, the stars that watched over him, the deer that kept him company, and Matthew himself. More than a decade later, this stunning cycle of sixty-eight poems serves as an illumination for readers too young to remember, and as a powerful, enduring tribute to Matthew Shepard’s life. Back matter includes an epilogue, an afterword, explanations of poetic forms, and resources.

Book Synopsis October Mourning by : Loren J. Chaucer
Download or read book October Mourning written by Loren J. Chaucer and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kendall's story is a piece of a mosaic as intricate as St. Fillan's stained glass windows. Dr. Macauley MacLaren, hopeful that the new methods of Freud would cure his mother's madness, founded the hospital, named for the patron saint of the insane, in 1898. The looming Victorian holds secrets, set in its shadows a century ago. Exploitation and experimentation, as old as the lobotomy and as new as managed care, add color to the completed mosaic. This particular painted lady is an eerie place, where things go bump in the night and staff and patients alike have an unfortunate propensity for a premature demise.
Book Synopsis The Grotesque in the Fiction of Charles Dickens and Other 19th-century European Novelists by : Isabelle Hervouet-Farrar
Download or read book The Grotesque in the Fiction of Charles Dickens and Other 19th-century European Novelists written by Isabelle Hervouet-Farrar and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the literary grotesque in 19th-century Europe, with special emphasis on Charles Dickens, whose use of this complex aesthetic category is thus addressed in relation with other 19th-century European writers. The crossing of geographical boundaries allows an in-depth study of the different modes of the grotesque found in 19th-century fiction. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the reasons behind the extensive use of such a favoured mode of expression. Intertextuality and comparative or cultural analysis are thus used here to shed new light on Dickens’s influences (both given and received), as well as to compare and contrast his use of the grotesque with that of key 19th-century writers like Hugo, Gogol, Thackeray, Hardy and a few others. The essays of this volume examine the various forms taken by the grotesque in 19th-century European fiction, such as, for example, the fusion of the familiar and the uncanny, or of the terrifying and the comic; as well as the figures and narrative techniques best suited for the expression of a novelist’s grotesque vision of the world. These essays contribute to an assessment of the links between the grotesque, the gothic and the fantastic, and, more generally, the genres and aesthetic categories which the 19th-century grotesque fed on, like caricature, the macabre and tragicomedy. They also examine the novelists’ grotesque as contributing to the questioning of society in Victorian Britain and 19th-century Europe, echoing its raging conflicts and the shocks of scientific progress. This study naturally adopts as its theoretical basis the works of key theorists and critics of the grotesque: namely, Victor Hugo, Charles Baudelaire and John Ruskin in the 19th century, and Mikhail Bakhtin, Wolfgang Kayser, Geoffrey Harpham and Elisheva Rosen in the 20th century.
