Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pursuits of Literature: A Satirical Poem in Four Dialogues, With Notes Frenchmen were always brutal, when unrestrained. With their own domestic misery and wickedness they never were satisfied. In these latter days, they have been neighing after the constitutions of their neighbours in their lawless lustihood. They first de ower the purity of the struggling or half-consenting victims, and then with their rudian daggers they sti e at once the voice and the remembrance of the pollution. Such are their abominations. Such are their orgies of blood and lust. And when their cruelty is at last wearied out and exhausted, and demands a pause, they call it clemency. France had been long looking for that, which her philo sophers had taught her to term the parallelism or run sword. She has indeed found it. That sword has indeed swept down not only every royal crest, but every head which raised itself above the plain of their equality. Such is their quaint and ferocious language. And now, when Englishmen are to be warned against the introduction of the horrid system, no appeal is to be made to the common feelings and passions of our nature, (this, it seems, is declamation;) no scenes of terror, and cruelty, and deso lation are to be laid before them, but dry reasoning and mathematical cal. Culations of the quantum of misery, plunder, and blood, necessary for the production and establishment in England of this blessed revolutionary go vernment. But we will not be insulted and fooled out of our existence, or of our understanding. Our sentence is for open war, till we can be safe. England is still prepared, and alert, and vigorous, and Opulent, and generous, andbold, and undismayed. She has not cast away her confi.

Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times-bestselling author, “a compelling domestic horror story” of a new bride haunted by childhood nightmares (Kirkus Reviews). Less than twenty-four hours after exchanging vows with her new husband, Willem, Abby steps out into traffic. As his wife lies in her hospital bed, sleeping in fits and starts, Willem tries to determine whether this was an absentminded accident or a premeditated plunge, and he quickly discovers a mysterious set of clues about what his wife might be hiding. Why, for example is there a rash-like red mark circling her wrist? What does she dream about that causes her to wake from the sound of her own screams? Slowly, Abby begins to open up to her husband, revealing to him what she has never shared with anyone before—a story of a terrified mother; a jealous, drug-addled father; a daughter’s terrifying captivity; and the demons behind her terrible recurring dreams of wandering through a field ridden with human skulls and bones… From a recipient of a National Book Award and three Bram Stoker Awards, this suspenseful, twisting tale, named one of the scariest books of the year by Kirkus Reviews, is a “fast-paced examination of the destructive and restorative nature of obsessive love” (Booklist).
