Goblin Girl

Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
ISBN: 1683962834
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
A dating site match goes really wrong in this troubling, funny graphic memoir. Things seem to be looking up when Moa Romanova ― broke, depressed, and living in a squat above an old store ― matches with a very famous celebrity on a popular hook-up site. Not only does the 53-year-old man like Moa ― he also immediately validates and motivates her in a way that not even her therapist does, even offering to help financially support her artistic ambitions. However, Moa soon discovers that there are strings attached. Drawn in a style that's de Chirico by way of the '80s, Romanova's relatable graphic memoir is a thought-provoking debut.

Book Description
Maja is a young goblin woman living in the slums of the city-state of Trinity. One night while exploring the city, she becomes the victim of a sinister campaign to sterilize the female goblin population.

If you have been clamoring for a more sophisticated plot to accompany your hardcore erotica, then you have found the right book. Follow fiction into the year 2019 as realistic sex scenes accompany a whirlwind plot of conspiracies, institutional racism, and the fight of a small group of people to protect a persecuted minority's right to live and be happy. Fall in love with the challenging and complex characters and move yourself to tears as you read about their struggle to make a difference in their world. For too long, fiction has come to a standstill as writers have been unable or unwilling to push into a literary realm where sex and plot matter simultaneously. Learn what happens to these characters behind closed doors as they put their lives on the line to protect the goblin citizens of Trinity. Learn their strengths and weaknesses, their loves and needs. Sex never needs to be separated from a compelling story, and in the right hands, can brilliantly enhance the characterizations. A new age of erotica has come to you. Take the first step into a realm of fiction never thought possible.

Princess and the Goblin - A Book That Inspired Tolkien
Author: George Macdonald
Publisher: Quillpen Pty Limited T/A Leaves of Gold Press
ISBN: 9781925110449
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
THE PRINCESS AND THE GOBLIN - A BOOK THAT INSPIRED TOLKIEN. With original illustrations. THE PROFESSOR'S BOOKSHELF #5: Professor J.R.R. Tolkien, author of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, was a great admirer of George MacDonald's fairy-stories. When his children were young, he used to read The Princess and the Goblin to them in the evenings, before they went to bed. 'Tolkien knew well MacDonald's children's books "The Princess and the Goblin" and "The Princess and Curdie", both of which influenced Tolkien's depiction of goblins in The Hobbit, ' writes Douglas A. Anderson in 'Tales Before Tolkien: The Roots of Modern Fantasy'. Dart-Thornton's introduction notes similarities between this story and Tolkien's works, for example: 'The wise, magical, prescient grandmother of the Princess Irene, seems to be a literary ancestor of Galadriel; centuries old and yet looking young, a queen, a healer, a beautiful, golden-haired woman associated with water. 'Princess Irene has a magic ring which is associated with invisibility, being linked to a semi-visible thread. This ring aids her in an escape from the Goblin Underground, much as The One Ring aids Bilbo.' This new edition contains ten illustrations by Jessie Willcox-Smith from the 1920 edition, which was published when Tolkien was aged 28, his eldest child John was three years old and his second child Michael had just been born. The delicately beautiful drawings of Willcox-Smith have been loved by generations of children to this very day. Also included is an illustration by Arthur Hughes from the 1911 edition.
