Download or read book House of Leaves written by Mark Z. Danielewski and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2000-03-07 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A novelistic mosaic that simultaneously reads like a thriller and like a strange, dreamlike excursion into the subconscious.” —The New York Times Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children. Now this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and second and third appendices. The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.

Download or read book The House by the Lake The True Story of a House Its History and the Four Families Who Made It Home written by Thomas Harding and published by Candlewick Studio. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History comes home in a deeply moving, exquisitely illustrated tale of a small house, taken by the Nazis, that harbors a succession of families—and becomes a quiet witness to a tumultuous century. The days went around like a wheel. The sun rose, warming the walls of the house. On the outskirts of Berlin, Germany, a wooden cottage stands on the shore of a lake. Over the course of a hundred years, this little house played host to a kind Jewish doctor and his family, a successful Nazi composer, wartime refugees, and a secret-police informant. During that time, as a world war came and went and the Berlin Wall arose just a stone’s throw from the back door, the house filled up with myriad everyday moments. And when that time was over, and the dwelling was empty and derelict, the great-grandson of the man who built the house felt compelled to bring it back to life and listen to the story it had to tell. Illuminated by Britta Teckentrup’s magnificent illustrations, Thomas Harding’s narration reads like a haunting fairy tale—a lyrical picture-book rendering of the story he first shared in an acclaimed personal history for adult readers.

THE HOUSE-WARMING. VEItYTHIXG went on as had been agreed upon;; the painting of the house, begun in the good weather of early February, was completed in April, as well as all the accessory jobs. M. de Gandelau, who had returned to the country towards the end of January, had had the little park laid out around the house, and had ordered the furniture most requisite for occupation, leaving it for his daughter herself to choose the articles consonant with her taste. Madame Marie had first announced that she should return in April, and then in May. There had been nothing said, since the war, about the house in the letters between herself and her mother. Madame Marie had not, probably, taken in earnest what had been written to her on this subject; and the disastrous events of 1870 and 1871 seemed to have entirely excluded the project from the minds of all. Paul was anxious to give his sister a complete surprise, and had begged Madame de Gandelau to say nothing about the house to Marie; to which his mother readily consented. Aladame Marie was written to that the family would not assemble at the chateau until the festival of Pentecost, and that, her father having several journeys to take, she need not hurry to reach France before that time. Madame de Gandelau received, on the 8th of May, a letter from Vienna, saying that Madame Marie and her husbaud would reach the chateau on the evening of the 19th, the day of Pentecost. Great was Paul's joy when he received this news. He would then be at home, and enjoy his sister's astonishment; for he had feared that she might arrive while he was still at school. This would have been dreadful. How ardently he worked during the time which still remained before the Pentecost! He wished to...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for security and comfort must have motivated prehistoric man to form his own cave dwelling. Since then, the concept of a house has gone through tremendous changes from the flawless houses of ancient civilizations to the modern-day high-rise settlements. Although modern homes provide comfort and luxury besides supporting the growing population well, they also lead to excess power consumption due to lighting in common areas, operation of lifts, among others. The Story of House talks about the evolution of homes, besides highlighting the dark side of luxury housing. At the same time, it offers smart green solutions to make our homes energy-efficient.
