Download or read book J. G. Ballard written by Jeannette Baxter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-02-12 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J.G. Ballard is one of the most significant British writers of the contemporary period. His award-winning novels are widely studied and read, yet the appeal of Ballard's idiosyncratic, and often controversial, imagination is such that his work also enjoys something of a cult status with the reading public. The hugely successful cinematic adaptations of Empire of the Sun (Spielberg, 1987) and Crash (Cronenberg, 1996) further confirm Ballard's unique place within the literary, cultural and popular imaginations. This guide includes new critical perspectives on Ballard's major novels as well as his short stories and journalistic writing covering issues of form, narrative and experimentation. Whilst offering fresh readings of dominant and recurring themes in Ballard's writing, including history, sexuality, violence, consumer capitalism, and urban space,the contributors also explore Ballard's contribution to major contemporary debates including those surrounding post 9/11 politics, terrorism, neo-imperialism, science, morality and ethics.
Book Synopsis The Big Book of Rogues and Villains by : Otto Penzler
Download or read book The Big Book of Rogues and Villains written by Otto Penzler and published by Vintage Crime/Black Lizard. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 930 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Award-winning editor Otto Penzler's new anthology brings together the most cunning, ruthless, and brilliant criminals in mystery fiction, for the biggest compendium of bad guys (and girls) ever assembled. The best mysteries--whether detective, historical, police procedural, cozy, or comedy--have one thing in common: a memorable perpetrator. For every Sherlock Holmes or Sam Spade in noble pursuit, there's a Count Dracula, a Lester Leith, or a Jimmy Valentine. These are the rogues and villains who haunt our imaginations--and who often have more in common with their heroic counterparts than we might expect. Now, for the first time ever, Otto Penzler gathers the iconic traitors, thieves, con men, sociopaths, and killers who have crept through the mystery canon over the past 150 years, captivating and horrifying readers in equal measure. The 72 handpicked stories in this collection introduce us to the most depraved of psyches, from iconic antiheroes like Maurice Leblanc's Arsène Lupin and Sax Rohmer's Dr. Fu Manchu to contemporary delinquents like Lawrence Block's Ehrengraf and Donald Westlake's Dortmunder, and include unforgettable tales by Robert Louis Stevenson, Bram Stoker, Washington Irving, Jack London, H.G. Wells, Sinclair Lewis, O. Henry, Edgar Wallace, Leslie Charteris, Erle Stanley Gardner, Edward D. Hoch, Max Allan Collins, Loren D. Estleman, and many more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Waratan, a small cargo steamer of some three thousand tons, lifted sluggishly, apathetically to the swells. The bit of sail rigged upon her gave her scarcely more than steerage-way. She carried no lights. Her engine-room hatch was carefully hooded with tarpaulins. From the depths below, muffled, there came the incessant clamor of hammers, of busy tools. The machinery was still. A mist hung in the light, following breeze, a wet mist that was almost a fine drizzle. There were no stars above. To starboard and port there was land-islands; many of them. They were there in the darkness-unseen. In the Malay Archipelago they are everywhere."--Chapter I.
