Download or read book Nightmare At 20 000 Feet written by Richard Matheson and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personally selected by Richard Matheson, the bestselling author of I Am Legend and What Dreams May Come, the stories in Nightmare at 20,000 feet more than demonstrate why Matheson's regarded as one of our most influential horror writers. Featuring the story "Duel," a nail-biting tale of man versus machines that inspired Steven Spielberg's first film. Remember that monster on the wing of the airplane? William Shatner saw it on The Twilight Zone, John Lithgow saw it in the movie-even Bart Simpson saw it. "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" is just one of many classic horror stories by Richard Matheson that have insinuated themselves into our collective imagination. Here are more than twenty of Matheson's most memorable tales of fear and paranoia, including: "Prey," in which a terrified woman is stalked by a malevolent Tiki doll, as chillingly captured in yet another legendary TV moment; "Blood Son," a disturbing portrait of a strange little boy who dreams of being a vampire; "Dress of White Silk," a seductively sinister tale of evil and innocence. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book El juego del escondite written by Patricia Highsmith and published by Anagrama. This book was released on 1997-03-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peggy se ha suicidado en Mallorca, donde vivía con su marido una vida de bohemia dorada. ¿Por qué lo ha hecho? Más aún: ¿se ha suicidado realmente? Estas preguntas son el punto de partida de una intriga, psicológica y policíaca. El padre de Peggy, Coleman, célebre pintor norteamericano y hombre de fogoso temperamento, culpa a su yerno, Ray Garret, de la muerte de su hija y, empujado por un odio obsesivo, decide vengarla. Tras un encuentro entre ambos en Roma, Coleman dispara contra Ray y lo da por muerto. Herido muy ligeramente, Ray está más sorprendido que furioso: la actitud de Coleman se basa en un malentendido que Ray quiere disipar (antes de su regreso a Nueva York, donde quiere montar una galería de arte), por lo que lo sigue hasta Venecia. Lejos de cambiar de actitud, Coleman intenta asesinarlo de nuevo a la primera oportunidad. Salvado de morir ahogado por un gondolero, Ray comprende que se ha metido en la boca de lobo y su primera reacción es esconderse en Venecia. Con un nombre falso. ¿Por miedo y cansancio? ¿O por maquiavelismo instintivo y deseo de inculpar a su suegro, cuando la policía empieza a inquetarse por su desaparición? Las causas son más oscuras y complicadas... mientras en Venecia, transformada en una inmensa trampa, se entabla un extraño y atroz juego del escondite. Como escribió el conocido especialista de la novela policial, Julian Symons, «ciertamente, Ray y Coleman, acarreando sus alforjas de culpa personal o nacional a través de Venecia, están entre los más memorables productos de la poderosa imaginación de Miss Highsmith».

Download or read book Cockfight written by Maria Fernanda Ampuero and published by Feminist Press at CUNY. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Ecuadorian short story collection explores domestic horrors and everyday violence, a "grotesque, unflinching" portrait of twenty-first-century Latin America (Publishers Weekly). “Ampuero’s literary voice is tough and beautiful at once: her stories are exquisite and dangerous objects.” —Yuri Herrera, author of Signs Preceding the End of the World Named one of the ten best fiction books of 2018 by the New York Times en Español, Cockfight is the debut work by Ecuadorian writer and journalist María Fernanda Ampuero. In lucid and compelling prose, Ampuero sheds light on the hidden aspects of the home: the grotesque realities of family, coming of age, religion, and class struggle. A family’s maids witness a horrible cycle of abuse, a girl is auctioned off by a gang of criminals, and two sisters find themselves at the mercy of their spiteful brother. With violence masquerading as love, characters spend their lives trapped reenacting their past traumas. Heralding a brutal and singular new voice, Cockfight explores the power of the home to both create and destroy those within it.

Download or read book James Joyce Roma y Otras Historias written by Giuseppe Cafiero and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "James Joyce, Roma e altre storie" descrive i mesi in cui scrittore irlandese James Joyce ("Ulisse", "Finnegans Wake", "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man"), ha vissuto a Roma, tra il 1906 e il 1907. E' un rendiconto degli incontri tra Joyce e il detective Herr David Mondine, delle lettere scritte dal Mr. Joyce al suo fratello Stanislaus e di un diario tenuto da Herr Mondine, che costruisce una coinvolgente narrazione di quei giorni. Joyce, frustrato dalla vita che conduceva a Trieste - allora parte dell'Impero d'Austria-Ungheria - fugge, con Miss Nora Barnacle, una moglie non sposata, e con il loro figlioletto Giorgio, a Roma per una nuova avventura pur detestando questa città così devota a un ritualismo volgare e a una smodata pompa liturgica. Mr. Joyce si aggirerà per la città di Roma come un spaesato visitatore catturato da luoghi che trova orribili e spettrali e che si accontenta di sostare piacevolmente in taverne e locande per mangiare e bere. Nel suo vagabondare Joyce tratteggia sovente affascinanti analogie tra la sua nativa Dublino e Roma, fra una città legata a vecchi e bizzarri miti e un'altra segnata da glorie mummificate tra maestose rovine e orribili edifici eretti in onore di un nuovo secolo. "Il libro è arricchito da ben 140 foto d'epoca che mostrano personaggi e luoghi frequentati da James Joyce e da Mr. Davide Mondine, il suo alter ego" +++ "James Joyce, Roma y otras Historias" describir los meses en que el autor irlandés James Joyce ("Ulises", "Finnegans Wake", "Retrato del Artista como un Hombre Joven") vivió en Roma, entre 1906 y 1907. Narraciones de los encuentros entre Mr. Joyce y el detective Herr David Mondine, y las cartas escritas por Mr. Joyce a su hermano Stanislaus, así como el diario escrito por el Sr. David Mondine constituyen una emocionante reconstrucción de esos días. Joyce se siente frustrado con su vida en Trieste -entonces parte de Austria-Hungría y hoy parte de Italia-así que, acompañado por su mujer Nora Barnacle y su pequeño hijo Giorgio, sale huyendo de esa ciudad puerto en el Adriático en busca de nuevas aventuras en Roma, esa capital tan Católica, a la que llega a aborrecer por su vulgar ritualismo e inmoderada pompa litúrgica. Mr. Joyce vaga como un nómada de corazón capturado por una ciudad que encuentra horrenda y fantasmal y pasa el tiempo en tabernas y hosterías, comiendo y bebiendo. El artista encuentra fascinantes similitudes entre su nativa Dublín y Roma, hija legítima de una ciudad de mitos viejos y glorias momificadas, establecida entre ruinas majestuosas y edificios ridículos erigidos en honor de un nuevo siglo. El libro se enriquece con unas 140 fotografías antiguas que muestran a personas y lugares frecuentados por James Joyce y el Sr. David Mondine, su alter ego.
