Limburg describes movingly her own struggles as a new mother and the pressure of society s expectations...Through such delicately intertwined experiences, Limburg quietly shouts for change. Times Literary SupplementIt seemed to me that many of the moments when my autism had caused problems, or at least marked me out as different, were those moments when I had come up against some unspoken law about how a girl or a woman should be, and failed to meet it.An autism diagnosis in midlife enabled Joanne Limburg to finally make sense of why her emotional expression, social discomfort and presentation had always marked her as an outsider. Eager to discover other women who had been misunderstood in their time, she writes a series of wide-ranging letters to four weird sisters from history, addressing topics including autistic parenting, social isolation, feminism, the movement for disability rights and the appalling punishments that have been meted out over centuries to those deemed to fall short of the norm. This heartfelt, deeply compassionate and wholly original work humanises women who have so often been dismissed for their differences, and will be celebrated by weird sisters everywhere.

The poems of My Little Book of Exiles sift through layers of diaspora and return, wrestling with the twin experiences of exile and separation. The diasporas of the collection take place in history, family, and the privacy of a mind as it navigates its daily work. In a set of ⠜Labor Poems,⠝ Alter captures moments of working in the snow of Wisconsin, under floodlights on the Kenai bay of Alaska, or in themachine-roar of construction sites in the Bay Area, where he has worked for two decades as an electrician. Another set of poems confront the vision of the Jewish people s homecoming to their ancestral land. A philosopher of the religion of labor ; and an assassinated Prime Minister are some of the figures which weave in with intimate histories of heartbreak and hope.Coming from a home where the Hebrew Bible was a book of bedtime stories, Alter⠙s work is in conversation with texts as varied as the Hebrew Psalms, the poetry of John Keats and Ezra Pound and the songs of Bob Dylan and Bob Marley.The collection concludes with poems exploring the homeland of family made through marriage and fatherhood, the strains and moments of grace that come with them. What can withstand the pressures of distance, the forces from outside and inside that want to pull us apart? The book⠙s strands weave a tapestry of hope even as the poems seek to discover finally what lasts.

Did you hear Evan Dando died last night? Evan Dando spills the true story of his bandâ ™s tumultuous history and what it was like to be famous in the pre-internet days in this candid, colourful, and unputdownable memoir.After Kurt Cobainâ ™s passing in 1994, everyone expected Evan Dando to be next. The Lemonheads frontman, songwriter and actor started in the 80s hardcore scene and went on to become a 90s icon with two gold records to his name. Think of Evan Dando, and you think of heroin chic, grunge and celebrity burnout. From sneaking into concerts as a child, to sleeping on floors in the punk rock days, to crashing at Johnny Deppâ ™s place in Hollywood, he was right there in the thick of it. So much so that social media once reported his death.Now, very much alive and sober, Dando is going to tell his own story. Rumours of my Demise will remind readers what was so great about the pre-internet 90s: the innocence, the access, and the anonymity. Reclaiming the purity and exuberance of his early days and encapsulating the spirit of the era, this is a portrait of an artist who lives wholly for his music, and one that makes no apologies for doing so.

What exactly are the Weird and the Eerie? In this new essay, Mark Fisher argues that some of the most haunting and anomalous fiction of the 20th century belongs to these two modes. The Weird and the Eerie are closely related but distinct modes, each possessing its own distinct properties. Both have often been associated with Horror, yet this emphasis overlooks the aching fascination that such texts can exercise. The Weird and the Eerie both fundamentally concern the outside and the unknown, which are not intrinsically horrifying, even if they are always unsettling. Perhaps a proper understanding of the human condition requires examination of liminal concepts such as the weird and the eerie. These two modes will be analysed with reference to the work of authors such as 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 Christoper Nolan.

Machen s weird tales of the creepy and fantastic finally come to Penguin Classics. With an introduction from S.T. Joshi, editor of AMERICAN SUPERNATURAL TALES, THE WHITE PEOPLE AND OTHER WEIRD STORIES is the perfect introduction to the father of weird fiction. The title story The White People is an exercise in the bizarre leaving the reader disoriented and on edge. From the first page, Machen turns even fundamental truths upside-down, as his character Ambrose explains, there have been those who have sounded the very depths of sin, who all their lives have never done an ill deed setting the stage for a tale entirely without logic --

In this updated edition, taking in his experiences during the coronavirus pandemic, Dan Farnworth brings vividly to life his astonishing times as a medic working on the frontline of the UK Ambulance Service. When the 999 call goes out, he has little idea what he will find - and how he will cope with the challenges he faces when he gets there. Having worked in the emergency services for more than fifteen years, Dan has seen it all. In 999, he shares stories that are sometimes sad, occasionally hilarious, often moving, but always inspirational. However, the work also takes its emotional toll. Which was why he set up a mental health campaign that helps those in his profession suffering from PTSD – something that struck him after a truly shocking event. His story will make you see our ambulance service in a completely new way.

Po zničení Zlého vlka dochází v mocenských strukturách Mýtova k přesunům moci, které hrozí rozdělit komunitu na dvě válčící frakce – jednu vedenou Sněhurkou a druhou její sestrou Růženkou. Tento proces ještě víc urychlují machinace skrytého vnitřního nepřítele, který mezitím Wolfiho oživil, s veškerou jeho smrtící silou, ale bez dříve nabyté lidskosti.A tak se nyní ulicemi New Yorku plíží nezastavitelný netvor, který roztrhá na kusy každého, kdo se mu postaví do cesty, a každým krokem víc a víc oslabuje bariéry mezi všedním světem a magickým Mýtovem. Zatímco Růženka připravuje rytíře Nového Kamelotu do bitvy, Sněhurka spřádá plány, jak zachránit svého očarovaného manžela. Je to příběh, který může skončit jedině tragicky – až na to, že příběhy je možné přepisovat. Kouzla se dají zlomit. Ve finále některé Mýty přežijí a některé zemřou, ale všichni dostanou poslední příležitost žít šťastně až do smrti.Po mnoha letech a nespočtu příběhů se série MÝTY blíží do finále – neskončí však jen tak snadno. Kreativní tým tvořený Billem Willinghamem, Markem Buckinghamem, Stevem Leialohou a Andrewem Pepoyem spojil na této knize síly s armádou speciálních hostů – včetně Matthewa Sturgese, Erica Shanowera, Shawna McManuse, Jeae Leeho, Terryho Moorea, Russe Brauna a Chrissie Zullové –, aby společně oslavili předposlední kapitolu této vychvalované kroniky!

Once I thought I glimpsed her high up in a bush, like dirty rags in a gale. Not that so far there has been any gale, or even any wind. The total silent stillness is one of the worst things.Yes, it is a battle with strong and unknown forces that I have on my hands.From the shorelines, hills and towns of ancient lands, tales of twisted creatures, sins against nature and pagan revenants have been passed down from generation to generation. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, folklore from Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Brittany and the Isle of Man inspired a new strain of strange short stories, penned by writers of the weird and fantastic including masters of the form such as Arthur Machen, Edith Wharton and Robert Aickman.In this volume, Johnny Mains dives into the archives to unearth a hoard of twenty-one enthralling tales imbued with elements of Celtic folklore, ranging from the 1820s to the 1980s and including three weird lost gems translated from Gaelic. Together they conjure uncanny visions of eternal forces, beings and traditions, resonating with the beguiling essence of this unique branch of strange fiction.

Selected and introduced by Stephen Carver⠘The beauty of the scene was strangely uplifting. Yet, ever at the back of his thoughts, lay that other aspect of the wilderness: the indifference to human life, the merciless spirit of desolation which took no note of man.⠙ ⠓ The Wendigo ⠘Of the quality of Mr. Blackwood⠙s genius there can be no dispute ⠦ he is the one absolute and unquestioned master of weird atmosphere.⠙ ⠓ H.P. Lovecraft Algernon Blackwood (1869 ⠓ 1951) ⠓ ⠘The Ghost Man⠙ ⠓ was a British broadcaster, journalist, traveller, mystic, and paranormal investigator, and, above all, a prolific author of weird, occult, and supernatural fiction. Often, he wrote about the untamed wilderness, from deserts to vast, primeval forests, vividly depicting a natural environment that is at once awe-inspiring, alien and hostile. Many of Blackwood⠙s most famous tales ⠓ such as The Wendigo and ⠘The Willows⠙ (both included in this collection) ⠓ are set in the empty places of the world. Like his psychic detective ⠘John Silence⠙, Blackwood was fascinated by elemental spirits, reincarnation, other dimensions, and higher states of consciousness. Wherever such things broke through, he sought them out, and now so can you in this comprehensive collection of his short fiction. As Blackwood explained himself: ⠘I believe it possible for our consciousness to change and grow, and that with this change we may become aware of a new universe.⠙Contents:IntroductionNote on the TextBibliographyWorks by Algernon BlackwoodFurther ReadingA Haunted Island A Case of Eavesdropping The Empty House Keeping His Promise Smith: An Episode in a Lodging House The Listener Max Hensig ⠓ Bacteriologist and Murderer: A Story of New YorkThe Willows The Insanity of Jones The Woman⠙s Ghost Story A Psychical InvasionThe Nemesis of Fire Secret Worship Entrance and ExitThe Sea FitThe Wendigo The Deferred AppointmentThe DamnedA Descent into EgyptTransitionThe DecoyThe Wolves of GodConfessionThe Man Who Was MilliganThe Doll Appendix: Explorers⠙ Ghost Stories
