But it didn’t take me long to discover how this school worked. Scholarship kids at the bottom of the heap, and way at the top, Ren Worthington. With his breath-taking good looks and bottomless pits of family money, you’d think he’d have better things to do than bully us poor kids. Not so. Ren and the other human students live their lives unaware of the creatures lurking in the dark. But us scholarship kids weren’t selected just for our academic skills. We’re all half-bloods and freaks - fae, witch, shifter, demon. In return for our free ride, we protect the rich brats from paranormal dangers. I don’t want to get close to Ren, I don’t want to work with him and I sure don't want to succumb to his charms, but I have no choice. Things aren’t what they seem on the surface. Our families have a history that goes way back and the connection between us might just be the thing to save or destroy me. Shadow Academy has many secrets… and maybe Ren is one of them.

And, after sharing my first kiss with Ren, I’m not sure of his feelings. I don’t think he’s sure himself. If that isn’t enough, a couple of weirdos kidnap Ren and I, wanting to experiment to test the extent of our powers. Those experiments include putting us in dangerous situations until we no longer know what’s real or not. If the prophecy is true, and I am the chosen one, I need to get this mess sorted out as soon as possible, or we’ll both die.
Download or read book A Eulogy to a Tragedy written by Harris Hazim and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2020-03-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the physical manifestation of the grief that haunts him during the day. A compilation of the late-night thoughts that stole his sleep. It is the demons of his mind that were sealed in this book. It is the devils of his heart that were banished into this book. The darkest thoughts, given form, and deathly musings, given life. The hymns of a broken soul. The unsavoury and immoral lust for flesh. The unwilling penitence for the sin of love. Dive into deep into the void, succumb to the abyss, where the deprivation of love, the disapproval from society, dissatisfaction with oneself, discontentment with others, and how religious beliefs, corrupts what once a jovial individual, into a twisted and malevolent being. Even so, to him, this is indeed the liberation of his soul. This is the book, which reveals true vulnerability, cloaked under false strength. A story laced tearfully into a collection of poems and prose, of repressed desires and forbidden love, a burden of carrying a disease deemed to be a taboo, and of recurring haunting wishes, for suicide and death.
Download or read book Strange Bright Blooms written by Randy Malamud and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virginia Woolf famously began one of her greatest novels: “Mrs Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself.” Of course she would: why would anyone surrender the best part of the day to someone else? Flowers grace our lives at moments of celebration and despair. “We eat, drink, sing, dance, and flirt with them,” writes Kakuzo Okakura. Flowers brighten our homes, our parties, and our rituals with incomparable notes of natural beauty, but the “nature” in these displays is tamed and conscribed. Randy Malamud seeks to understand the transplanted nature of cut flowers—of our relationship with them and the careful curation of their very existence. It is a picaresque, unpredictable ramble through the world of flowers, but also the world itself, exploring painting, murals, fashion, public art, glass flowers, pressed flowers, flowery church hats, weaponized flowers, deconstructed flowers, flower power, and much more.

Download or read book Ghost Storeys written by Cameron Macdonell and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most studies of modern Gothic media assume that, beyond the 1830s, modern Gothic architecture and literature had very little in common. The work of Ralph Adams Cram (1863–1942), America’s most prolific Gothic Revival architect and an author of ghost stories, challenges that assumption. The first interdisciplinary study of Cram’s aesthetics, Cameron Macdonell’s Ghost Storeys deconstructs the boundaries of Gothic architecture and literature through a microhistory of St Mary’s Anglican Church in Walkerville, Ontario. Focusing on Cram and the church’s main patron, Edward Walker (1851–1915), Macdonell explores the intricate intersections of Gothic aesthetics, architectural ethics, literature, theology, cultural values, and community construction in an Edwardian-era company town. When Walker commissioned the church, he believed that its economy of salvation could save him from the syphilis that afflicted his body and stained his soul. However, while implementing that economy, Cram, whose architectural theory, social commentary, and ghost stories were pessimistic about reviving the Gothic in the modern world, also created an architecture haunted by the sickness of humanity. Painstakingly researched and lavishly illustrated, Ghost Storeys redefines the allegorical relationship between a marginalized church and the Gothic Revival movement as a global interdisciplinary phenomenon.
