Download or read book Thirteen Uncanny Stories written by Hans Henny Jahnn and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1984 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jahnn selected the stories, originally appearing as exempla in his novels, for separate publication (13 nicht geheure Ge- schichten. Suhrkamp, 1967). They reflect his Weltanschauung of the harmonious universe in which man is part of an endless chain, connected on the one hand to his ancestors who pass their deeds on through their works, and on the other to the future by means of the everlasting repetition of the process of nature. To Jahnn the meaning of life was that there are no answers and that man is an unknown quantity. The tragic seriousness of life is not without hope, however, for man is a responsible being, and in this world in need of love and mercy he is the only one to provide uncondi- tional love. Jahnn's work has been considered to be a repetition, in modern dress, of certain aspects of the Gilgamesh epic; his motifs are drawn from it, his characters are archetypes. For the first time in English. With an introduction.

Book excerpt: Jaundice and Kale are back from their adventure on the high seas, and they are settling back into a quiet life in Dullsville, just the way they like it. The tea is tepid, the oatmeal is tasteless, and the socks are ripe for darning . . . until Aunt Shallot shows up and reveals herself to be anything but the dull relation they were expecting. Instead, she tells her nieces she is Magique, Queen of Magic, and she’s on her way to a big show and in need of two willing assistants. As Magique and the Bland sisters board the Uncanny Express, they meet a cast of mystifying characters. And when Magique goes missing, it’s up to Jaundice and Kale to solve the mystery—with the help of famous detective Hugo Fromage. An inventive story in the tradition of Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, The Unintentional Adventures of the Bland Sisters: The Uncanny Express has all the whimsy and humor that readers who are looking for an anything-but-bland adventure will love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A writer named Mary Louisa Molesworth writes below the pen name Mrs. Molesworth. Her collection of brief testimonies called "Uncanny Tales" is a combination of thrillers and spooky testimonies. In a book posted inside the overdue 1800s, Molesworth, an English creator of many kid's books, indicates how flexible she became with the aid of writing about scary and strange things. The stories on this series are complete of hysteria and mystery, and that they often observe matters that are just a little off the norm. Molesworth makes use of her ability at telling stories to create testimonies that maintain readers inquisitive about adding a hint of the unusual and the surprising. The memories are marked by their moody settings, exciting characters, and creative plot turns that create a mix of fable and suspense. Even though Mrs. Molesworth might be quality known for her work on children's books, "Uncanny Tales" shows that she can write in a variety of styles. Because it shows how appropriate she is at telling tales, the book gives readers a check out the darker and extra mysterious elements of her writing. "Uncanny Tales" is a lovely alternate from Molesworth's extra usual books. It has a chain of interesting and spooky short tales that make you want to explore the unknown and experience the draw of the supernatural.
