Book Synopsis Dark Garden Nightmare by : Arman Arian
Download or read book Dark Garden Nightmare written by Arman Arian and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sickly and depressed fourteen-year-old boy with no gleam of hope lives isolated from the outside world along with his mother and father within the walls of a frighteningly dark garden. He is the thirteenth child of the family. All of his older brothers and sisters have died and are buried in the family graveyard at the back of the manor. The day he was born coincided with the beginning of a string of deaths. His brothers and sisters began dying one every year, each under suspicious circumstances before they reached the age of fifteen. By family tradition, fifteen is considered the age of adulthood, and the age at which each child must make the momentous decision to leave the garden permanently or stay and carry on the fam¬¬¬ily name. On the threshold of the age of fifteen, this nameless boy spends his days deep in thought and fearful speculation about his own predicament. He is distrusting of his own mother and father because they demonstrate a certain animosity toward one another and blame each other for the deaths of each one of their children. Prior to the boy's fifteenth birthday, his father secretly invites him to escape together from the garden, and devises a plan in order to achieve this. But the next morning, the boy discovers that his father has disappeared without a trace. From this point on, he and his mother live alone in the manor. The threat of danger has strangely subsided and the boy reaches the age of adulthood, such that he comes to believe that the real killer of his brothers and sisters had been his father all along, since the atmosphere in the manor and garden since his escape has become calm and peaceful. Mother plans to arrange a marriage for her son with a young girl from a nearby garden similar to their own to help carry on the generations. A peculiar old man, who enters the manor through a hidden door in a closet, helps facilitate this arranged marriage. The boy gains a sense of confidence after marriage. He takes on the responsibilities of running the manor. He spends happy days with his wife Eiyla, who teaches him how to do many household tasks. One blissful year passes but Eiyla still does not conceive a child, and then she too subsequently dies. Since the boy had loved her, he becomes despondent in his grief for her. One night as he walks in the garden under the moonlight, the ghosts of his deceased brothers and sisters appear to him. They help him discover the body of his father at the bottom of the dried-up well at the back of the garden. This means his father had not escaped after all, which also means that his father could not have been the killer. The boy feels compelled to get to the bottom of all these mystifying events. His distrust for his mother is compounded by the mysterious death of his father. He must now learn to survive on his own while uncovering the evil inside the garden and find out the reason behind all these suspicious deaths. His discovery opens his eyes to the outside world and propels him forward on what becomes his life's mission.

Book Synopsis Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by : John Berendt
Download or read book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil written by John Berendt and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-05-12 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE LANDMARK NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An enormously engaging portrait of a most beguiling Southern city: “Elegant and wicked.... [This] might be the first true-crime book that makes the reader want to book a bed and breakfast for an extended weekend at the scene of the crime." —The New York Times Book Review • 30th Anniversary Edition with a New Afterword by the Author. Shots rang out in Savannah's grandest mansion in the misty,early morning hours of May 2, 1981. Was it murder or self-defense? For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares. John Berendt's sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative reads like a thoroughly engrossing novel, and yet it is a work of nonfiction. Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case. It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman's Card Club; the turbulent young redneck gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the "soul of pampered self-absorption"; the uproariously funny black drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young blacks dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight. These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else. Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience. Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, this true-crime book has become a modern classic.
Book Synopsis Into the Garden with Charles by : Clyde Phillip Wachsberger
Download or read book Into the Garden with Charles written by Clyde Phillip Wachsberger and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in the tiny village of Orient, Long Island, and in New York City, Into the Garden with Charles is a memoir about falling in love. As a boy in suburban New York in 1940s, Clyde Wachsberger daydreams about storybook gardens where magic happens under the huge leaves. Through the 1960s and 1970s, when most gay men disdained monogamy, the author—an artist and set-designer in New York City—searches unsuccessfully for a soul mate. In 1983, approaching middle-age and having given up on finding love, he moves to a three-hundred-year-old house on a third of an acre, where he channels his passion into creating a garden appropriate to his historical home. Then remarkable circumstances lead him to Charles—a connoisseur of art, a gardener, and the man who will become his life-partner. Together they create a garden of sensuous wild beauty. Into the Garden with Charles is infused with the author's artistic sensibility and is written in a voice that is unaffected, generous, and straightforward. Enriched with the author's paintings—giving it the look and feel of an antique children's book—Into the Garden with Charles is a unique and moving memoir about growing old and falling in love.

Book excerpt: Garden, Ashes is the remarkable account of Andi Scham's childhood during World War II, as his Jewish family traverses Eastern Europe to escape persecution. As the family moves from house to house, the novel focuses on Andi's relationship with his father; he recounts the endless hours his father poured into the creation of his all-inclusive third edition of the Bus, Ship, Rail, and Air Travel Guide, to the bizarre sermons he delivered to his befuddled family, to his eventual disappearance and assumed death at Auschwitz.

Book excerpt: Lars Kepler returns with an internationally bestselling follow up to the wildly successful debut thriller The Hypnotist. He knows your darkest dreams. Then he makes them come true. After spellbinding audiences in The Hypnotist, Detective Inspector Joona Linna is back in The Nightmare, which has already sold 190,000 copies in Sweden just one week after publication. On a summer night, police recover the body of a young woman from an abandoned pleasure boat drifting around the Stockholm archipelago. Her lungs are filled with brackish water, and the forensics team is sure that she drowned. Why, then, is the pleasure boat still afloat, and why are there no traces of water on her clothes or body? The next day, a man turns up dead in his state apartment in Stockholm, hanging from a lamphook in the ceiling. All signs point to suicide, but the room has a high ceiling, and there's not a single piece of furniture around -- nothing to climb on.b Joona Linna begins to piece together the two mysteries, but the logistics are a mere prelude to a dizzying and dangerous course of events. At its core, the most frightening aspect of The Nightmare isn't its gruesome crimes -- it's the dark psychology of its characters, who show us how blind we are to our own motives.
