Описание: A "marvelously macabre" (Kirkus Reviews) history of the bizarre afterlives of corpses of the celebrated and notorious dead. For some of the most influential figures in history, death marked the start of a new adventure. The famous deceased have been stolen, burned, sold, pickled, frozen, stuffed, impersonated, and even filed away in a lawyer's office. Their fingers, teeth, toes, arms, legs, skulls, hearts, lungs, and nether regions have embarked on voyages that crisscross the globe and stretch the imagination. Counterfeiters tried to steal Lincoln's corpse. Einstein's brain went on a cross-country road trip. And after Lord Horatio Nelson perished at Trafalgar, his sailors submerged him in brandy--which they drank. From Alexander the Great to Elvis Presley, and from Beethoven to Dorothy Parker, Rest in Pieces connects the lives of the famous dead to the hilarious and horrifying adventures of their corpses, and traces the evolution of cultural attitudes toward death.

Описание: The largest bird migration in human history threatens the earth's entire population. A nightmare vision from the end of the age, as told by wealthy divorc e Meredith Van Scoy, mother of 13-year-old Kathy Van Scoy. Meredith's voice is the heart of apocalyptic doom, as displayed by nature in a whirlwind of chaos, and foretold by behind closed doors human behavior. In an odyssey motivated by sheer terror, Meredith and her daughter leave the upscale community of Chappaqua, New York behind, driving halfway across the country to a sprawling, picturesque prairie farm in Payne County, Oklahoma, returning to the arms of her estranged and enigmatic mother. In a house heavy burdened by secrets, Meredith is haunted by events from her past, and a life of hidden depravity too deep to discuss with another living soul. In a world of gloom and fear, Meredith endures the return of the unspeakable, while a condemned population struggles with the rise of the impossible, and the beginning of the end of mankind on the face of the earth.

Описание: A teenage girl has the power to create ice out of thin air. An icy warning from the end of the age, as spoken by Cynthia Auburn, mother of seventeen year old Miranda Auburn, a girl born with a unique and powerful ability to form ice and snow from the air around her. This bizarre, oftentimes disturbing reality is the voice of a mother held prisoner by the impossible, and the fearful truth of her daughter's apocalyptic talent and skill. In the working class suburb of Richland Hills, Virginia, Cynthia discovers that her daughter is literally a freak of nature, learning that her old fears about Miranda have finally come to pass. Their end-of-the-world story is a two fold revelation: first, of the modern Mother Daughter Dynamic uncovered, and the exploration of apocalyptic evil in the heart of latter day womanhood. And second, of what happens when that evil touches the soul of a real life ice queen with rage and vengeance, at the twilight of human history, on the eve of eschatology.
