Play: Karma; a reincarnation play Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was an English short story writer and novelist, one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. Though Blackwood wrote a number of horror stories, his most typical work seeks less to frighten than to induce a sense of awe. Good examples are the novels The Centaur, which climaxes with a traveler's sight of a herd of the mythical creatures; and Julius LeVallon and its sequel The Bright Messenger, which deal with reincarnation and the possibility of a new, mystical evolution in human consciousness.

Download or read book Robert Louis Stevenson written by Kevin MacNeil and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of fiction and nonfiction by the Scottish author of Treasure Island, selected by two acclaimed Argentinian writers. First imagined in the 1960s but never published, this collection of Robert Louis Stevenson’s essays, fables and short stories was imagined by Jorge Luis Borges and Adolfo Bioy Casares—a collection of their favorite works of nonfiction, short stories, and fables. The themes—integrity, intellectual and imaginative truth, literary meaning, the fantastic—are common to all three authors, and these connections are explored in an introduction by Kevin MacNeil. Featuring such classic tales as “The Bottle Imp” and rare essays on crime, morality, dreams, and romance, this anthology is rich, eloquent and utterly readable.

Download or read book Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde Third Edition written by Robert Louis Stevenson and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2015-04-14 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1886 as a “shilling shocker,” Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde takes the basic struggle between good and evil and adds to the mix bourgeois respectability, urban violence, and class conflict. The result is a tale that has taken on the force of myth in the popular imagination. This Broadview edition provides a fascinating selection of contextual material, including contemporary reviews of the novel, Stevenson’s essay “A Chapter on Dreams,” and excerpts from the 1887 stage version of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Also included are historical documents on criminality and degeneracy, the “Jack the Ripper” murders, the “double brain,” and London in the 1880s. New to this third edition are an appendix on the figure of the Victorian gentleman and an expanded selection of letters related to the novel; the introduction and bibliography have also been updated to reflect recent criticism.

This book was released on 2022-01-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algernon Henry Blackwood was an English novelist and short story writer, and among the most prolific ghost story writers in the history of the genre. The son of a preacher, Blackwood had a life-long interest in the supernatural, the occult, and spiritualism, and firmly believed that humans possess latent psychic powers. Lovecraft wrote about Blackwood: "He is the one absolute and unquestioned master of weird atmosphere." His powerful story "The Willows," which effectively describes another dimension impinging upon our own, was reckoned by Lovecraft to be not only "foremost of all" Blackwood's tales but the best "weird tale" of all time.
