Thinking About Everything
Author: Dennis Ford
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595613918
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
Humorist Dennis Ford has seen it all. After all, he lives in New Jersey. As a teacher and bookseller, Ford contemplates some of life’s great questions—all without leaving his car. These include: • What’s the funniest word in the English language? • How plastic surgery can turn devils into hotties. • The case of the perfectly fitting police uniform. But Ford doesn’t stop there. He also devises a master plan to win the war in Iraq and ease the burden on the military, explains how to apply for membership in the Society of Goths, and backs up his belief that while Jesus may have been resurrected, he most certainly wasn’t crucified. Politics, religion, psychology, and popular culture—it’s all fair game. Ford takes on everything, shooting from the lip and saying out loud what everyone else keeps to themselves. Stop taking life so seriously and consider the lighter side of things in Thinking About Everything.

The Weird and the Eerie
Author: Mark Fisher
Publisher: Watkins Media Limited
ISBN: 1910924393
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
A noted cultural critic unearths the weird, the eerie, and the horrific in 20th-century culture through a wide range of literature, film, and music references—from H.P. Lovecraft and Daphne Du Maurier to Stanley Kubrick and Christopher Nolan. What exactly are the Weird and the Eerie? Two closely related but distinct modes, and each possesses its own distinct properties. Both have often been associated with Horror, but this genre alone does not fully encapsulate the pull of the outside and the unknown. In several essays, Mark Fisher argues that a proper understanding of the human condition requires examination of transitory concepts such as the Weird and the Eerie. Featuring discussion of the works of: H. P. Lovecraft, H. G. Wells, M.R. James, Christopher Priest, Joan Lindsay, Nigel Kneale, Daphne Du Maurier, Alan Garner and Margaret Atwood, and films by Stanley Kubrick, Jonathan Glazer and Christopher Nolan.

The Book of Cthulhu
Author: Ross Lockhart
Publisher: Start Publishing LLC
ISBN: 1597803553
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 605
Book Description
The Cthulhu Mythos is one of the 20th century's most singularly recognizable literary creations. Initially created by H. P. Lovecraft and a group of his amorphous contemporaries (the so-called "Lovecraft Circle"), The Cthulhu Mythos story cycle has taken on a convoluted, cyclopean life of its own. Some of the most prodigious writers of the 20th century, and some of the most astounding writers of the 21st century have planted their seeds in this fertile soil. The Book of Cthulhu harvests the weirdest and most corpulent crop of these modern mythos tales. From weird fiction masters to enigmatic rising stars, The Book of Cthulhu demonstrates how Mythos fiction has been a major cultural meme throughout the 20th century, and how this type of story is still salient, and terribly powerful today.
