Book excerpt: A deadly infatuation. Apocalypse. A haunted hotel. These are what you'll meet if you dare to venture inside. How would you react if you came across someone who claimed he caused the end of humankind? This is the question Jake must answer in The Third Coming, the story that spawned the Earth Haven trilogy. Would you dive into a pond that will alter you fundamentally? What if you are on a beach at Dunkirk, already facing near-certain death, when you look into the eyes of true evil? Try to avoid the Obsessives' Club—it's not somewhere you want to stay. Encounter a novel way of dealing with antisocial behaviour, a condemned prisoner who's convinced that she's Dorothy Gale, and a daring but brutal escape from a Siberian prison camp. Then there's a girl who claims she can fly, not to mention a ghost, maybe two. Ten stories of the macabre and the wondrous and the seemingly mundane… until you scratch beneath the surface.

Book Synopsis Still Life and Other Stories by : Junzo Shono
Download or read book Still Life and Other Stories written by Junzo Shono and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-10-29 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 13 stories in this collection by Japanese writer Junzo Shono are linked by the daily life of a husband and wife and their children. The stories are like the back of a tapestry where threads seem to cross randomly. Births, weddings, school activities, a suicide attempt - all occur out of view. Readers understand crucial events through ordinary days. But these quiet tales have a cumulative power. Toys, birds, and playing cards relate to human lives as portents, parallels, parodies. The mother, with her secret sorrows, and the puzzled, bemused father savor reveries and survive unexplained misfortunes. Shono's vivid snapshot technique, the layering of images, events, and conversations, creates an effect Western readers may find more akin to an Ozu film crossed with haiku than to traditional short stories.
