Book excerpt: Can good and evil coexist? Can a family man also be a ruthless killer? From the start, Robert Hansen seemed destined for an unhappy life. Overworked by his strict parents and relentlessly bullied by his classmates, he spent his teenage years alone. His love of archery and hunting were the only comforts he had until he left his small town for Alaska, the last great frontier. Now a man, his hunting skills earned him prestige, while his new business earned him the trust and admiration of Anchorage's people. It seemed like Hansen had finally turned his life around. When countless women around town went missing, no one had any idea that he was hunting a very different kind of game. Witness the depraved second life of a respected family man--the life of the worst serial killer in Alaska's history.

Download or read book Provocations written by Camille Paglia and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has changed since Camille Paglia first burst onto the scene with her groundbreaking Sexual Personae, but the laser-sharp insights of this major American thinker continue to be ahead of the curve—not only capturing the tone of the moment but also often anticipating it. Opening with a blazing manifesto of an introduction in which Paglia outlines the bedrock beliefs that inform her writing—freedom of speech, the necessity of fearless inquiry, and a deep respect for all art, both erudite and popular—Provocations gathers together a rich, varied body of work spanning twenty-five years, illuminating everything from the Odyssey to the Oscars, from punk rock to presidents past and present. Whatever your political inclination or literary and artistic touchstones, Paglia’s takes are compulsively readable, thought provoking, galvanizing, and an essential part of our cultural dialogue, invariably giving voice to what most needs to be said.

Download or read book Queer Screams written by Abigail Waldron and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-08-17 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The horror genre mirrors the American queer experience, both positively and negatively, overtly and subtextually, from the lumbering, flower-picking monster of Frankenstein (1931) to the fearless intersectional protagonist of the Fear Street Trilogy (2021). This is a historical look at the queer experiences of the horror genre's characters, performers, authors and filmmakers. Offering a fresh look at the horror genre's queer roots, this book documents how diverse stories have provided an outlet for queer people--including transgender and non-binary people--to find catharsis and reclamation. Freaks, dolls, serial killers, telekinetic teenagers and Final Girls all have something to contribute to the historical examination of the American LGBTQ+ experience. Ranging from psychiatry to homophobic fear of HIV/AIDS spread and, most recently, the alienation and self-determination of queer America in the Trump era, this is a look into how terror may repair a shattered queer heart.

Download or read book Exeunt Murderers written by Anthony Boucher and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boucher, a Catholic writer with catholic interests and enthusiasms, wrote short mysteries delving into "religion, opera, football, politics, movies, true crime, record collecting, and an abundance of good food and wine along with clues and puzzles and deductions."--Francis M. Nevins, Jr., from his Introduction Most Boucher stories feature brilliant amateur detectives; these are tales of ra­tiocination in which a splendid quirky intellectual assembles clues and solves mysteries, almost always in time to stop further violence, often without leaving the native habitat to visit the scene of the crime. The first part of this book--"An En­nead of Nobles"--contains nine stories exhibiting the deductive powers of Nick Noble: Lieutenant MacDonald explained about Nick Noble as they drove. "No­body knows where he lives or what he lives on. All we know is that we can find him at a little joint on North Main, drinking cheap sherry by the water glass. Sherry's all that life has left him--that, and the ability to make the toughest problem come crystal clear." The second section--"Conundrums for the Cloister"--shows the vast reason­ing power and deep human under­standing of Sister Ursula, whose early ill health forced her from a police career into a nunnery. "Quiet, simple, human, with the unobtrusive but intense inner glow of the devotional life," she is the nun vari­ant of G. K. Chesterton's immortal Fa­ther Brown. "Jeux de Meurtre," the third section, contains nonseries stories, some narrated by the cops and amateurs who solve the puzzle, some even by the murderers themselves.
