Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Selection "The most exciting and definitive collection of Lovecraft's work out there." –Danielle Trussoni, New York Times Book Review No lover of gothic literature will want to be without this literary keepsake, the final volume of Leslie Klinger’s tour-de-force chronicle of Lovecraft’s canon. In 2014, The New Annotated H. P. Lovecraft was published to widespread acclaim— vaunted as a “treasure trove” (Joyce Carol Oates) for Lovecraft aficionados and general readers, alike. Hailed by Harlan Ellison as an “Olympian landmark of modern gothic literature,” the volume included twenty-two of Lovecraft’s original stories. Now, in this final volume, best- selling author Leslie S. Klinger reanimates twenty-five additional stories, the balance of Lovecraft’s significant fiction, including “Rats in the Wall,” a post– World War I story about the terrors of the past, and the newly contextualized “The Horror at Red Hook,” which recently has been adapted by best- selling novelist Victor LaValle. In following Lovecraft’s own literary trajectory, readers can witness his evolution from Rhode Island critic to prescient literary genius whose titanic influence would only be appreciated decades after his death. Including hundreds of eye- opening annotations and dozens of rare images, Beyond Arkham finally provides the complete picture of Lovecraft’s unparalleled achievements in fiction.

Download or read book Dracula written by Bram Stoker and published by Aegitas. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dracula is a seminal work of horror literature that has captivated readers for over a century. Bram Stoker's novel is a masterful exploration of the human psyche, delving into themes of desire, fear, and the unknown. The novel's epistolary format allows readers to experience the story through the eyes of multiple characters, each with their own unique perspective on the events that unfold. At its core, Dracula is a story about the battle between good and evil. Count Dracula is a powerful vampire who seeks to spread his curse to others, while a group of determined individuals work to stop him. The novel's portrayal of evil is complex and nuanced, with Dracula serving as both a terrifying monster and a tragic figure who is cursed by his own desires. One of the most fascinating aspects of Dracula is its exploration of sexuality. The novel is filled with themes of seduction and desire, with Dracula representing a dark and dangerous form of sexual energy. The female characters in the novel are particularly interesting, as they are both attracted to and repelled by Dracula's power. Finally, Dracula is a story about the fear of the unknown. Stoker's novel was written during a time when scientific discoveries were challenging traditional beliefs about the world. The idea of a supernatural creature like Dracula was both terrifying and fascinating to readers, as it represented a world beyond their understanding. Overall, Dracula is a timeless work of horror fiction that continues to captivate readers today. Its exploration of themes such as good vs. evil, sexuality, and the fear of the unknown make it a complex and thought-provoking read that will stay with readers long after they finish the book.

Download or read book Powers of Darkness written by Bram Stoker and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powers of Darkness is an incredible literary discovery: In 1900, Icelandic publisher and writer Valdimar à?smundsson set out to translate Bram Stoker’s world-famous 1897 novel Dracula. Called Makt Myrkranna (literally, “Powers of Darkness†?), this Icelandic edition included an original preface written by Stoker himself. Makt Myrkranna was published in Iceland in 1901 but remained undiscovered outside of the country until 1986, when Dracula scholarship was astonished by the discovery of Stoker’s preface to the book. However, no one looked beyond the preface and deeper into à?smundsson’s story.In 2014, literary researcher Hans de Roos dove into the full text of Makt Myrkranna, only to discover that à?smundsson hadn’t merely translated Dracula but had penned an entirely new version of the story, with all new characters and a totally re-worked plot. The resulting narrative is one that is shorter, punchier, more erotic, and perhaps even more suspenseful than Stoker’s Dracula. Incredibly, Makt Myrkranna has never been translated or even read outside of Iceland until now.Powers of Darkness presents the first ever translation into English of Stoker and à?smundsson’s Makt Myrkranna. With marginal annotations by de Roos providing readers with fascinating historical, cultural, and literary context; a foreword by Dacre Stoker, Bram Stoker’s great-grandnephew and bestselling author; and an afterword by Dracula scholar John Edgar Browning, Powers of Darkness will amaze and entertain legions of fans of Gothic literature, horror, and vampire fiction.

Download or read book Something in the Blood The Untold Story of Bram Stoker the Man Who Wrote Dracula written by David J. Skal and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2017 Edgar Award Finalist A revelatory biography exhumes the haunted origins of the man behind the immortal myth, bringing us "the closest we can get to understanding [Bram Stoker] and his iconic tale" (The New Yorker). In this groundbreaking portrait of the man who birthed an undying cultural icon, David J. Skal "pulls back the curtain to reveal the author who dreamed up this vampire" (TIME magazine). Examining the myriad anxieties plaguing the Victorian fin de siecle, Skal stages Bram Stoker’s infirm childhood against a grisly tableau of medical mysteries and horrors: cholera and famine fever, childhood opium abuse, frantic bloodletting, mesmeric quack cures, and the gnawing obsession with "bad blood" that pervades Dracula. In later years, Stoker’s ambiguous sexuality is explored through his passionate youthful correspondence with Walt Whitman, his adoration of the actor Sir Henry Irving, and his romantic rivalry with lifelong acquaintance Oscar Wilde—here portrayed as a stranger-than-fiction doppelgänger. Recalling the psychosexual contours of Stoker’s life and art in splendidly gothic detail, Something in the Blood is the definitive biography for years to come.
