Boomerang ; Never Die
Author: Barry Hannah
Publisher: Univ. Press of Mississippi
ISBN: 9780878057023
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
In Boomerang, a novel told in vignettes both real and fictive, a father attempting to cope with the tragic murder of his son learns that actions return to haunt or reward. He becomes the embodiment of Hannah's ideal of forbearance, dignity, and decency in the face of incomprehensible death. In Never Die Hannah mingles hilarity and horror as the frontier West is killed off by the onset of automobiles, biplanes, and nitroglycerine bombs. A gallery of grotesque characters - a judges' evil dwarf henchman, a nymphomaniacal schoolteacher, and a homosexual doctor named Fingo - populate this rollicking postmodern novel in which Old West myths collide with the anarchy of the twentieth century.

Book Description
If you're going to shoot Joe Kurtz, you'd better shoot to kill. Ex-PI Joe Kurtz's survival is on the line when an ambush leaves him badly wounded and his parole officer, Peg O'Toole, clinging to life. Their respective professions have ensured that neither suffers from a shortage of enemies, so narrowing down the suspects isn't easy. But Kurtz knows who's at the head of his list: Angelina Farino Ferrara, the lethal beauty who leads the Farino crime family, and her mob rival, Toma Gonzaga. The odd thing is, each would rather hire Joe Kurtz than fire at him. Someone's causing trouble beneath the gray skies of western New York, and it's drawn the notice of the mobs and the cops. Kurtz is caught in the middle along with the rest of them, and no one knows who's tightening the vise.

Book Description
From renowned Dark Romance author and New York Times Bestseller, Pepper Winters, comes a brand new addictive Dark Romance. “Ten thousand dollars. That pitiful sum changed my entire life. It bought my entire life. A measly ten thousand dollars, given to my boyfriend by a monster to taste me. He took it. The monster took me. And I never saw freedom again.” I’m the illegitimate son of a monster. My other half-blooded siblings have their own demons…but me? I truly have the devil inside. I try to be good. To do my best to ignore the deep, dark, despicable urges. But every day it gets harder. I thought family could help. I reached out to my infamous half-brother, Q, begging for his secrets to stay tamed. Instead, he gave me an ultimatum to prove I’m not like our father. Infiltrate The Jewelry Box: a trafficking ring of poor unfortunate souls, kill the Master Jeweler, free the Jewels, and don’t lose my rotten soul while trying. Only problem is…my initiation into this exclusive club is earning a Jewel all of my own. She sparkles like diamonds, bleeds like rubies, and bruises as deep as emeralds. She’s mine to break. I can’t refuse. If I want to prove to my half-brother that I’m not like our sire, I have to sink into urges I’ve always fought, plunge into madness, and lose myself so deeply into sin that the only one who will be breaking is me. A spin-off from the New York Times Bestselling series Monsters in the Dark. The Jewelry Box follows Henri Mercer (Q's half-brother) and you don't have to read Monsters in the Dark to enjoy. The storylines are completely separate. Strictly R18. Triggers on every warning possible. This is dark, explicit, and will push every possible boundary that exists. Be warned.... To all those dark souls out there...welcome to The Jewelry Box Reviews: 5 Stars There are two authors that have the ability to render my brain mush with anxiety, dread and ultimately a large amount of intrigue. And Pepper is one of them. The way she laid the foundation for what I know will be my next favorite dark romance tale just proves how talented she is. -- I am Booked 5 Stars How can I articulate how much I loved this book? I don’t think I can find words to do it justice. Beneath all the rawness, dark aspects and suffering, this story is captivating, overwhelming and hauntingly beautiful.-- Jennii The Book Addict 5 Stars This book just blew my mind. An emotionally challenging read, addictive writing and morally graphite-grey characters that play with boundaries of morality are hallmarks of Pepper. Pulling you in with gravitational force you will be left astounded, heartbroken, maybe sick at some parts, but you won't escape unscathed & unaffected. This series should be a mandatory read for any lover of dark romance. Nobody ...and I mean NOBODY can create more complex characters with bottomless pits for souls, like she can. -- Book Bistro Blog 5 Stars Back to her roots...Pepper Winters starts off a new series full of depravity. Dark and sexy...I can tell this series will not be for the faint of heart, and, most likely, if you have ANY triggers, it will not be for you. If you enjoy sexiness and a shopping list of trigger warnings...then this will be right up your alley. - Danielle and Her S*** Books

Cuba in Splinters
Author: Orlando Luis Pardo
Publisher: OR Books
ISBN: 1939293499
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
Think Cuba, you’re likely to think bearded revolutionaries in fatigues. Salsa. Sugar cane. Rock ‘n’ roll, zombies, drugs – anomie and angst – do not generally figure in our mental images of a country that’s assumed an outsized place in the American imagination. But fresh from the tropics, in Cuba in Splinters – a sparkling package of stories we’re assured are fictional – that’s exactly what you’ll find. Eleven writers largely unknown outside Cuba depict a world that veers from a hyperreal Havana in decay, against a backdrop of oblivious drug-toting German tourists, to a fantasy land – or is it? – where vigilant Cubans bar the door to zombies masquerading as health inspectors. Sex and knife-fights, stutterers and addicts, losers and lost literary classics: welcome to a raw and genuine island universe closed to casual visitors. ……………………………… “I took a dollar taxi. I must have fallen asleep right away next to the driver, nodding off against the seatbelt. The flight attendant was another giggling mulata who helped me with my buckle in a flash, right near the zipper of this countryless queer, right at that timeless time to close the doors and fly away from Cuba once and for all. To clear Cuba out of myself forever—another variation on a terrible outcome. The noise was deafening. How mysterious, how miraculous, how shitty.” —from “The Man, the Wolf and the New Woods”
