Download or read book A Little White Book of Screams and Whispers written by Thomas Ligotti and published by Crossroad Press. This book was released on 2021-12-11 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifth volume in Series III of the popular “Little Book” Series! Thomas Ligotti is a contemporary American horror writer and reclusive literary cult figure. His writings have been noted as being rooted in several literary genres—most prominently, weird fiction—and have overall been described by critics such as S. T. Joshi as works of “philosophical horror,” often written as short stories and novellas and with similarities to gothic fiction. The worldview espoused by Ligotti in both his fiction and non-fiction has been described as profoundly pessimistic and nihilistic. The Washington Post called him the best kept secret in contemporary horror fiction. We are very proud to include this fascinating and unique writer in our Little Book Series. A Little White Book of Screams and Whispers is a compilation of Interviews with Ligotti that have never been collected or reprinted. The author’s complex and esoteric answers will give you insight into one of the most original and unsettling writers of weird dark fantasy.

Download or read book Whispers and Screams written by Stanley M. Bonner and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventeen short stories and novelettes compose Whispers and Screams. While these stories are from the realms of horror, science fiction, and fantasy, they are also stories about people, about loneliness, insanity, love, politics, philosophy, food, power, about human feelings and behavior in these dynamic times. A large number of the protagonists are minorities or women. Many of the stories owe their heritage to the black-and-white horror movies of the late thirties and forties and the B-grade science fiction of the fifties. "Proteus Rex" is about a genetically engineered life-form that adapts the attributes of animals (a lion's strength, a bird's wings) or whatever his survival needs and infinite appetites dictate. Having consumed all the animal life in a small rural community, he begins to eat people. Much of the story is about the local authority's attempt to identify and apprehend this menace, a significant challenge as Proteus Rex is an extradimensional being that can change his size to as small as an amoeba to as large as a blue whale. "Proteus Rex" is populated by a deep cast of characters, only a few of whom manage not to get eaten. Imagine the actress Lucy Liu portraying Ian Fleming's most shrewd creation, James Bond, 007. Only she's working for TSA—the Teleportation Security Administration—three hundred years in the future. This is after World War VI, and the United States has been fractured into several independent nations. The two Koreas have united and is running the world. Executive Action Officer Sun Park's mission is to capture or neutralize the perpetrators that sent and detonated an atomic bomb in the TSA X-port Freight Hub in Buenos Aires. This is the premise of "The Price of a Dog," an action-driven novella, a political science fiction thriller. In the short story "Slaves of the Cat Goddess," Buster, the main character (and stooge of General Wanamaker), is charged to take the mysterious cat Bast to a secret research base. Bast's size and ferocity force a crash landing on an uncharted tropical island inhabited by cannibals. Knowing that it was Buster who was responsible for her mutation, Bast not only protects him in this hostile world, but she sees that he is elevated, serving as the ambassador between the goddess Bast and the humanity she would enslave.

Download or read book Screaming Whispers written by Kelvin Brown and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where is it within ourselves that we find honesty and truth? A place where the playing field is leveled from disingenuous facades of truth and loyalty. The place where we lay naked, bare who we truly are as individuals. it is our emotions, those mixtures of complex feelings that are difficult to grasp and contain when we are truly touched by some person or event. What is the origin that causes the explosive or suppression of our inner nature of passion? Screaming Whispers is a collection of poems that I have written that express the feelings and situations of women that I have met in my life. My emotions were touched by some of the lives of women that I have known. Some of the lives I write about have been so gut wrenching and inspiring, that pen to paper was my way of expressing my feelings. These poems touch on so many levels of emotions: encouragement, failure, heroism, rape, love, domestic violence, joy, infidelity, appreciation, humor and more. It is with great sincerity that this author seeks to touch every reader that connects personally with the poems read. Each and every poem contained within this book is true and has a face. I hope that everyone can understand why I was touched to write these poems. I also hope that no one has experience all of them.

Download or read book Please Scream Inside Your Heart written by Dave Pell and published by Hachette Go. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the publisher of the NextDraft newsletter comes a cathartic and humorous ride through the unnerving, maddening hellscape of the 2020 press cycle, reestablishing the line between "real" news and real life. Please lower your shoulder restraint and keep your hands and feet in. You’re about to board a roller coaster ride through a year that was at once laughable and lethal. If you’ve got an anti-anxiety prescription, now would probably be a good time to call in a refill. Please Scream Inside Your Heart is a time capsule; a real-time ride through the maddening hell that was the 2020 news cycle—when historic turmoil and media mania stretched American sanity, democracy, and toilet paper. Who better to examine this unhinged period in all of its twists and turns than news addict Dave Pell, aka the internet’s Managing Editor? Fueled by the wisdom and advice of his two Holocaust-surviving parents, for whom parts of this story were all too familiar, Pell puts the key stories of 2020 into context with pith and punch; highlighting turning points that widened America’s divisions, deepened our obsession with a media-driven civil war, and nearly knocked the country off its tracks. Pell also examines the role of technology in society—and how we somehow built the exact opposite of what we thought we were building. Why did the lies spread faster than the truth? How did our tech addiction contribute to the nightmare? Why do you feel a vibration in your pocket right now? In 2020, the news was everywhere, and everything was political—even the air we breathed. So brace yourself as you’re hurtled through the twists and turns of the corkscrewiest year in American history; one that included two impeachment trials, a global pandemic, Black Lives Matter, the biggest election of a lifetime, a slide towards autocracy, and a warning from the makers of Lysol not to drink their products.
