Book Synopsis The Burial of the Rats Be Annotated by : Bram Stoker
Download or read book The Burial of the Rats Be Annotated written by Bram Stoker and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Burial of the Rats" has the distinctive flavor of an Edwardian gentleman's magazine thriller, and it features all the necessary tropes for this genre: a young man forced to prove his manhood through his mental prowess and physical stamina, a white-knuckled chase scene, last minute escapes, themes of Social Darwinism and Nietzschean philosophy, a sense that the struggle is a coded rite of passage, a distant lover, degenerate villains without mercy or scruples, a battle against the natural elements, and a seemingly hopeless race against time. This type of story would become even more popular after World War One (its heyday being the 20's, 30's, and 40's) and revived after World War Two (where these sorts of action thrillers - the lone man fighting for survival against Nature and mankind alike - were beautifully adapted for male-centered radio programs like "Escape" and "Suspense"). Although he was preceded in the man-on-the-run thriller by Ambrose Bierce ("An Occurance at Owl Creek Bridge"), Robert Louis Stevenson ("The Suicide Club"), and Rudyard Kipling ("The Man Who Would Be King"), Stoker's "Burial of the Rats" is among the first to perfectly epitomize the formula of the modern suspense thriller. Like "Three Skeleton Key" (lighthouse keepers are besieged by a hoard of carnivorous rats) it includes a Darwinian Man vs. Nature element that reduces its hero to his basic, primal instincts (class, education, and money are useless to him) and like in "The Most Dangerous Game" (a castaway is saved by a Russian aristocrat only to be released into the jungle and hunted as the man's prey) human beings are put in a predator/prey dynamic that forces them to rely on animal instincts and cunning to evade/capture one another. Suspenseful, disturbing, primitive, and bleak, it is among the best thriller stories of the Edwardian period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wow, just when I thought I couldn't read any thing that would creep me out any more, I come across Bram Stoker's short story Burial of the Rats and have to say I got chills. The story, which is about an Englishman who is traveling through France and accidentally comes across a city of vagrants, had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I don't know which was more suspenseful, the fact the traveler wound up having everyone chasing after him in an attempt to kill him and keep his valuables, a hunt that seemed more like a pack of wild animals than anything. Or, the fact that, if they would have succeeded, the thousands of rats would have picked his bones clean in a matter of minutes, removing all traces of the crime and even his identity, hence the title, Burial of the Rats.InfoClix.net

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Excellent Collection brings together Bram Stoker's longer, major books and a fine selection of shorter pieces and Fiction Books. These Books created and collected in Bram Stoker's Most important Works illuminate the life and work of one of the most individual writers of the XX century - a man who elevated political writing to an art. Abraham "Bram" Stoker (8 November 1847 – 20 April 1912) was an Irish author, best known today for his 1897 Gothic horror novel Dracula. During his lifetime, he was better known as the personal assistant of actor Sir Henry Irving and business manager of the Lyceum Theatre, which Irving owned. Stoker visited the English coastal town of Whitby in 1890, and that visit was said to be part of the inspiration for Dracula. He began writing novels while working as manager for Irving and secretary and director of London's Lyceum Theatre, beginning with The Snake's Pass in 1890 and Dracula in 1897. During this period, Stoker was part of the literary staff of The Daily Telegraph in London, and he wrote other fiction, including the horror novels The Lady of the Shroud (1909) and The Lair of the White Worm (1911). He published his Personal Reminiscences of Henry Irving in 1906, after Irving's death, which proved successful and managed productions at the Prince of Wales Theatre. Before writing Dracula, Stoker met Ármin Vámbéry, a Hungarian-Jewish writer and traveller (born in Szent-György, Kingdom of Hungary now Svätý Jur, Slovakia). Dracula likely emerged from Vámbéry's dark stories of the Carpathian mountains. Stoker then spent several years researching Central and East European folklore and mythological stories of vampire. This Collection included: 1. A Dream of Red Hands 2. Crooken Sands 3. Dracula 4. Dracula's Guest 5. The Burial of the Rats 6. The Dualitists 7. The Invisible Giant 8. The Jewel of Seven Stars 9. The Judge's House 10. The Lair of the White Worm 11. The Man 12. Under the Sunset

Book Synopsis Ulysses (Annotated) by : James Joyce
Download or read book Ulysses (Annotated) written by James Joyce and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 1257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ulysses (1922) is a novel by the Irish author James Joyce. It was first serialised in parts in the American journal The Little Review from March 1918 to December 1920, and then published in its entirety by Sylvia Beach on 2 February 1922, in Paris. Joyce's technical innovations in the art of the novel... he used a complex network of symbolic parallels drawn from the mythology, history, and literature, and created a unique language of invented words, puns, and allusions. One of the most important works of Modernist literature, it has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement". "Before Joyce, no writer of fiction had so foregrounded the process of thinking." Written over a seven-year period from 1914 to 1921. No book has ever been more eagerly and curiously awaited by the strange little inner circle of book-lovers and littérateurs than James Joyce's "Ulysses".
