Once again, R. M. Ahmose offers a duo of compelling tales of suspense. Composed, as before, with intent to jog the reader out of contentment with astandarda reality, this excursion is provided courtesy of aThe Office Managera and aA Nice Family.a Imagine a newly divorced woman, considered by members of her first family to be psychologically fragile, having set off to start a new life, alone, in a new town and state. Imagine, too, that she is endowed (or plaguedayou be the judge) with a sensitivity that seems to expose the inner, hidden sentiments of those around her. aThe Office Managera tells the tale. A family moves into the town of Berkshire. The clan may be a little intellectually challenged but otherwise is friendly, law abiding, unobtrusivea]some might even say humble. So why do so many members of their community turn so maliciously against them? Most believe they truly personify the storyas title, aA Nice Family.a
"e;Wishes can be as slippery as fish and they can't be unwished,"e; said the Eel, "e;so think carefully"e;.Loosely based on traditional Grimm fairy tales, this is a book of contemporary stories that weaves myth, magic and realism with as many twists as an eel's tail. And who knows, perhaps after reading it you'll discover what you should really wish for.
Dread of the unknown fills us with both unease and curiosity. We laugh, nervously, at tales of haunted houses and phantoms, yet something looms. There is a shadow behind life that creeps through its walls and knocks, and we know it is a fear of the unknown that makes each heart beat faster. Life is uncanny. We are equally attracted to and repulsed by what scares us. The unknown will persist thanks to literature, and that is where the ghosts will always live. This collection presents twenty-nine eerie narratives drenched in an otherworldly fog. Ghosts stalk these pages, and the ominous specter of Death peers out with an amused grin. Separated into two parts, this collection contains both ghastly stories of death and bizarre tales of the unknown. These tales were all chosen for their uncanny aesthetics and their compelling narratives. Marvel at the literary and haunting expertise of classic writers like Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ambrose Bierce, Bram Stoker, and more.
