Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An excellent terror novel” from a twentieth-century master of psychological suspense, the Edgar Award–winning author of The Hours Before Dawn and Uncle Paul (The Times Literary Supplement). Round and round on the London Underground rides Milly Barnes, who has left her real identity—and a shocking crime—behind in the basement flat she shares with her second husband. A union in name only, the marriage has taken its toll on Milly, leaving her only one option: escape. Once Milly gets her wits about her, she uses what little money she has to take a train to the coastal town of Seacliffe. There, she finds work as the help for the kind of women she once was, and finds a humble room in a boarding house. Freedom, like a breath of fresh ocean air, exhilarates Milly more than the trappings of the life she has left behind. That is, when she’s not furtively reading newspaper headlines to check if she’s been found out. Or hiding from phone calls and knocks on the door. For the consequences of Milly’s not-so-distant past are closer than she thinks . . .

Download or read book Yesterday at the Hotel Clarendon written by Nicole Brossard and published by Coach House Books. This book was released on 2001-03-19 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carla Carlson is at the Hotel Clarendon in Quebec City trying to finish a novel. Nearby, a woman, preoccupied with sadness and infatuated with her boss, catalogues antiquities at the Museum of Civilization. Every night, the two women meet at the hotel bar and talk – about childhood and parents and landscapes, about time and art, about Descartes and Francis Bacon and writing. When Yesterday, at the Hotel Clarendon appeared in French (as Hier), the media called it the pinnacle of Brossard’s remarkable forty-year literary career. From its intersection of four women emerges a kind of art installation, a lively read in which life and death and the vertigo of ruins tangle themselves together to say something about history and desire and art.

Download or read book Counter clock World written by Philip K. Dick and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2002 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Counter-Clock World, one of the most theologically probing of all of Dick’s books, the world has entered the Hobart Phase–a vast sidereal process in which time moves in reverse. As a result, libraries are busy eradicating books, copulation signifies the end of pregnancy, people greet with, “Good-bye,” and part with, “Hello,” and underneath the world’s tombstones, the dead are coming back to life. One imminent old-born is Anarch Peak, a vibrant religious leader whose followers continued to flourish long after his death. His return from the dead has such awesome implications that those who apprehend him will very likely be those who control the fate of the world. Winner of both the Hugo and John W. Campbell awards for best novel, widely regarded as the premiere science fiction writer of his day, and the object of cult-like adoration from his legions of fans, Philip K. Dick has come to be seen in a literary light that defies classification in much the same way as Borges and Calvino. With breathtaking insight, he utilizes vividly unfamiliar worlds to evoke the hauntingly and hilariously familiar in our society and ourselves.

Excerpt: "Ever since, in Only Yesterday, I tried to tell the story of life in the United States during the nineteen-twenties I have had it in the back of my mind that someday I might make a similar attempt for the nineteen-thirties. I began work on the project late in 1938 and had it three-quarters done by the latter part of the summer of 1939, though I did not yet know how the story would end."

Download or read book Yesterday s Man written by Branko Marcetic and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deep dive into Joe Biden’s history and the origins of his political values Yesterday’s Man exposes the forgotten history of Joe Biden, one of the United States’s longest-serving politicians, and one of its least scrutinized. Over nearly fifty years in politics, the man called “Middle-Class Joe” served as a key architect of the Democratic Party’s rightward turn, ushering in the end of the liberal New Deal order and enabling the political takeover of the radical right. Far from being a liberal stalwart, Biden often outdid even Reagan, Gingrich, and Bush, assisting the right-wing war against the working class, and ultimately paving the way for Trump. The most comprehensive political biography of someone who has tried for decades to be president, Yesterday’s Man is an essential read for anyone interested in knowing the real Joe Biden and what he might do in office.
