Book Description
From the Edgar Award–winning “queen of the American gothics”: A troubled girl in a remote mountain home grapples with a terrifying secret (The New York Times). New York clinical psychologist Lynn McLeod has never backed away from a child in need. But a plea for her services in Blue Ridge country tries Lynn’s compassion. Ten-year-old Jilly is no random traumatized girl. She’s the daughter of Lynn’s unfaithful ex-husband, Stephen. Despite the turbulent emotions it stirs in her, Lynn can’t say no. Perhaps this is her last chance to heal her own wounds . . . From the outside, the Ashe’s cliffside home is an architectural dream. Inside it’s something closer to a nightmare, filled with suspicion, menace, and psychic visions. With an absentee mother off in pursuit of her career and a dispirited father, Jilly can only confide in Lynn, whom she trusts with her most shocking secrets—including those involving murder. With premonitions of another death to come, only Lynn can save Jilly—and the man she once loved—from a mystery that’s about to destroy them all. From the New York Times–bestselling “master of suspense” (Mary Higgins Clark) comes a chilling brew of family secrets and paranormal fears that’s “rock-solid, reliable Whitney” (Kirkus Reviews). This ebook features an illustrated biography of Phyllis A. Whitney including rare images from the author’s estate.

Women Poets in Ancient Greece and Rome
Author: Ellen Greene
Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press
ISBN: 9780806136646
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Although Greek society was largely male-dominated, it gave rise to a strong tradition of female authorship. Women poets of ancient Greece and Rome have long fascinated readers, even though much of their poetry survives only in fragmentary form. This pathbreaking volume is the first collection of essays to examine virtually all surviving poetry by Greek and Roman women. It elevates the status of the poems by demonstrating their depth and artistry. Edited and with an introduction by Ellen Greene, the volume covers a broad time span, beginning with Sappho (ca. 630 b.c.e.) in archaic Greece and extending to Sulpicia (first century B.C.E.) in Augustan Rome. In their analyses, the contributors situate the female poets in an established male tradition, but they also reveal their distinctly “feminine” perspectives. Despite relying on literary convention, the female poets often defy cultural norms, speaking in their own voices and transcending their positions as objects of derision in male-authored texts. In their innovative reworkings of established forms, women poets of ancient Greece and Rome are not mere imitators but creators of a distinct and original body of work.

Irish Children’s Literature and the Poetics of Memory
Author: Rebecca Long
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350167266
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Focusing on the mythological narratives that influence Irish children's literature, this book examines the connections between landscape, time and identity, positing that myth and the language of myth offer authors and readers the opportunity to engage with Ireland's culture and heritage. It explores the recurring patterns of Irish mythological narratives that influence literature produced for children in Ireland between the nineteenth and the twenty-first centuries. A selection of children's books published between 1892, when there was an escalation of the cultural pursuit of Irish independence and 2016, which marked the centenary of the Easter 1916 rebellion against English rule, are discussed with the aim of demonstrating the development of a pattern of retrieving, re-telling, remembering and re-imagining myths in Irish children's literature. In doing so, it examines the reciprocity that exists between imagination, memory, and childhood experiences in this body of work.
