Book Description
Evil exists in infinite forms. Coming face to face with evil is a horrifying thing. Evil will lie in wait, scheming and manipulating the perfect opportunity to attack its chosen prey: YOU. The assault will always occur when you are at your most vulnerable. The true nature of evil is that its many disguises blind you to its presence. True evil knows you far better than you know yourself, so it gains your absolute devotion. When it attacks, you are paralyzed with dread because it was the companion you least expected to turn on you and the one you trusted above all others. The real horror strikes when you realize that evil’s touch has always been with you. In this book of short stories, you will read of depravities so vile they will shock you to the core of your being. You will face brutality so vicious it will make you ashamed to claim membership in the human race. Even more appalling, you will realize that most of humanity doesn’t even care about evil—until it touches them. After reading this book, you too will know what it’s like to be touched by evil.

Gone to Mums
Author: Barry Simiana
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1300813407
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
" What can you say about a twenty five year old girl who died?" With those words, Erich Segal opened his tear-jerker novella Love Story, and a film (and cultural) phenomenon was born. "Gone to Mums" doesn't allow a dry eye in the room. Told from Ray's perspective, it is a most improbable love story, set among the orchards and migrant farmers of rural Australia. He meets Kelly when she beats the crap out of him for trying to steal fruit from her roadside farm stand. Ray and Kelly do fall in love, but their romance is anything but conventional. If Love Story taught us that love was never having to say sorry, "Mums" reminds us that time doesn't heal wounds, it just covers them over with scar tissue.

Discovering Orson Welles
Author: Jonathan Rosenbaum
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520940717
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
Of the dozens of books written about Orson Welles, most focus on the central enigma of Welles's career: why did someone so extravagantly talented neglect to finish so many projects? Film critic Jonathan Rosenbaum has long believed that to dwell on this aspect of the Welles canon is to overlook the wealth of information available by studying the unrealized works. Discovering Orson Welles collects Rosenbaum's writings to date on Welles—some thirty-five years of them—and makes an irrefutable case for the seriousness of his work, illuminating both Welles the artist and Welles the man. The book is also a chronicle of Rosenbaum's highly personal writer's journey and his efforts to arrive at the truth. The essays, interviews, and reviews are arranged chronologically and are accompanied by commentary that updates the scholarship. Highlights include Rosenbaum's 1972 interview with Welles about his first Hollywood project, Heart of Darkness; Rosenbaum's rebuttal to Pauline Kael's famous essay "Raising Kane"; detailed essays and comprehensive discussions of Welles's major unfinished work, including two unrealized projects, The Big Brass Ring and The Cradle Will Rock; and an account of Rosenbaum's work as consultant on the 1998 re-editing of Touch of Evil, based on a studio memo by Welles.
