Book Synopsis Ghosts of Past and Future by : Darrell Schweitzer
Download or read book Ghosts of Past and Future written by Darrell Schweitzer and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2008-06-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ghosts of Past and Future demonstrates Darrell Schweitzer's ability to astonish us with his range and depth as a poet. Those who encountered him first as an engaging satirist and parodist will rejoice in the emotional depth of this work, though they will also be edified by his flashes of macabre humor. Schweitzer's symphonic progress of poems begins with illuminating meditations on mortality and death. It then moves to splendid dramatic monologues informed by a sage's knowledge and an lover's empathy. The book's next movement expands into works of beautiful and intimate lyricism. It climaxes with a series of insights on the significance of death for humanity's and the reader's future. The book is more than a feast of death; it is an affirmation of human value and history. At the same time, Schweitzer has put the book together to carry the reader through as if reading a piece of gripping suspense fiction. An important and, above all, fascinating book." -Mary A. Turzillo, Nebula winning fiction writer and poet. "Darrell Schweitzer is an outstanding exponent of contemporary imaginative literature.... [He] has mastered a fine and very flexible kind of syllabic line, part free, part blank verse, achieving many definitive and memorable passages that haunt the shared corridors of our collective imagination." -Donald Sidney-Fryer, author of Songs and Sonnets Atlantean.

Book excerpt: Women are holy The people of Weyburn, Ohio, practice a religion thousands of years old-the first religion. And the first law of this religion is that no one may harm a woman. One of them has broken this law. He is a rapist and killer, and he must be found and punished. Only his mother can decide what that punishment will be because only mothers have the right to pass judgment on their children. This is the second law: Life is not a right. Life is a privilege. Young Scott is witness to all of this. Twelve years old, he is a boy on the cusp of adolescence, full of questions and uncertainty. Is he in some way like Will, the killer? Does Scott belong in the village of Weyburn, or is he, too, an outsider? As the community searches for the murderer, Scott searches for answers to troubling questions. His answers will come from the last person he would ever expect. 'The best short novel I have read in the past ten years." -Donald Sidney-Fryer, author of Aloysius Bertrand's Gaspard de la Nuit and Songs and Sonnets Atlantean 'Renowned genre novelist David C.

Book Synopsis Gahan Wilson's Out There by : Gahan Wilson
Download or read book Gahan Wilson's Out There written by Gahan Wilson and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2015-12-30 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gahan Wilson is probably best known for his macabre Playboy cartoons―filled with charming monsters, goofy mad scientists, and melting victims―and his cutting-edge work in the National Lampoon, but in 1964, he brought his brilliantly controlled wiggly-but-sophisticated pen line to The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. Wilson’s freaks and geeks found a home among the stories of the best fantasy and sf writers of the day, offering a welcome, if sometimes macabre or existentially imponderable, graphic break from the magazine’s otherwise straightforward prose. Wilson’s playfully black sense of comedy was on full display in these cartoons, delineated in his trademark roly-poly, sensual, delicately hatched line. Out There features the over 250 cartoons that Wilson drew during his tenure with the magazines as well as all four covers he rendered―none of which have seen the light of day since their first appearance 50 years ago. Wilson also contributed both short stories and movie and book reviews, which are included as well. Out There resurrects hundreds of virtually unseen cartoons by one of the 20th century’s masters of the form.
