Pages : 149
Book Description
War is over. Darkness has been driven to annihilation. The world balances on the edge of an uneasy peace but fear still lurks the streets of Gotheim. Whispers of foul creatures plague the hinterlands, and in the secret heart of many, an unshakeable suspicion gnaws - an ancient evil readies to unfurl its wings and cast its shadow upon the realm. Marcus Blackwood, the venerable inquisitor of the Citadel, travels to the small village of Westgrave to investigate the curious case of the cursed Mary Shaw. Accusations of forbidden magic and dark rumours of a lady in the woods are abound. Accompanied by his apprentice, Blackwood will uncover a threat that reaches far beyond the village of Westgrave. He’ll face a long-forgotten enemy that not even he may be able to stop. The fate of Mary Shaw lies in jeopardy and Blackwood’s duty to the Citadel may force him to sacrifice more than he is willing to part with.

The Undiscovered Chekhov
Author: Anton Chekhov
Publisher: Seven Stories Press
ISBN: 1609803175
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
The Undiscovered Chekhov gives us, in rich abundance, a new Chekhov. Peter Constantine's historic collection presents 38 new stories and with them a fresh interpretation of the Russian master. In contrast to the brooding representative of a dying century we have seen over and over, here is Chekhov's work from the 1880s, when Chekhov was in his twenties and his writing was sharp, witty and innovative. Many of the stories in The Undiscovered Chekhov reveal Chekhov as a keen modernist. Emphasizing impressions and the juxtaposition of incongruent elements, instead of the straight narrative his readers were used to, these stories upturned many of the assumptions of storytelling of the period. Here is "Sarah Bernhardt Comes to Town," written as a series of telegrams, beginning with "Have been drinking to Sarah's health all week! Enchanting! She actually dies standing up!..." In "Confession...," a thirty-nine year old bachelor recounts some of the fifteen times chance foiled his marriage plans. In "How I Came to be Lawfully Wed," a couple reminisces about the day they vowed to resist their parents' plans that they should marry. And in the more familiarly Chekhovian "Autumn," an alcoholic landowner fallen low and a peasant from his village meet far from home in a sad and haunting reunion in which the action of the story is far less important than the powerful impression it leaves with the reader that each man must live his life and has his reasons.
