Описание: The author is a one-of-a-kind Irish sportsman, the iconic hurler of his generation. He became synonymous with Cork hurling during a period when the Rebel County reached the highest of highs and was regularly gripped by controversy. All of this would have seemed pretty unlikely when he was born in 1977. This book tells his story.

Описание:
What starts like a haunted house novel as written by the Marquis de Sade develops into a meta-deconstruction of hardcore horror and why we love sex and violence.
There is something seriously wrong with the house at Sixty-Five Stirrup Iron Road. Its history is awash with sadistic violence and fiendish sex. For generations the house has corrupted its inhabitants. Now Arrianne and Chuck have moved in, and the house is ready to hunt once more. But this time the house's occupants won't be the only targets. No one is safe-not the reader, not the authors, and not the horror genre itself...
Nine of the biggest names in horror fiction collaborate on a gore-and-sex-soaked novel with all proceeds benefiting modern master of crime and terror, Tom Piccirilli.
Описание: This is the only book written about "the Woodstock of the Beats" - the historic 1982 Kerouac SuperSummit in Boulder where, as John Clellon Holmes put it, "more of us were together than had ever been together in one place at one time before." And nothing on this scale ever happened again. Featuring scenes, anecdotes and transcribed conversations with the likes of Holmes, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, William Burroughs, Herbert Huncke, Kens Kesey & Babbs, Michael McClure, Carolyn Cassady, Edie Kerouac, Abbie Hoffman, Paul Krassner, Al Aronowitz and many others, the book is a fast-paced storytelling adventure straight through the heart of Beatlandia. Hitchhiking tales from a 3,500 mile journey, life among the Beats, and "following your dreams to the living rooms of your heroes" are some of the happenings in this On The Road "Almost Famous" with literary rock stars - from the debauched to the brilliant. Readers will learn what the whole "Kerouac thing" is all about - why he's so popular and has lasted so long - as reflected through the eyes of myriad people from famous novelists to students, filmmakers to poets, his lovers to his critics. The book also features the most extensive exploration in print of the connection between the Beats and The Grateful Dead. No other band in history has as close a relationship to particularly Kerouac and Neal Cassady as The Grateful Dead, or who more embodied the On The Road ethos that those two personified. In fact, it was the band who largely funded this historic gathering and scheduled their summer Red Rocks shows to be a part of - to which, of course, the reader is taken. Besides all the living Beats, there is also a significant focus on Ken Kesey - including many transcribed conversations - about his relationship with Kerouac's writing, Cassady's persona, The Bus's legacy and the importance of family. Plus, there's Abbie Hoffman and Timothy Leary in major supporting roles - each with very different reactions from those in attendance. Told as a first-person Adventure Story by an enthusiastic 21-year-old show producer, the narrative is both youthful in its wide-eyed sense of discovery, while balanced with decades of scholarship and perspective. Not only was the book meticulously fact-checked, but each section was run by the person who appears in it, or their estate if they've passed. This event took place at a time when Kerouac was at such a low ebb not even "On The Road" was in most bookstores. This gathering marked the biggest turnaround in his career other than the release of his defining novel. From here on out - and with the direct help of those in attendance - there would be a steady ascension of Kerouac's standing in both the public and literary worlds. The book has been described as "funny and informative" - two words that usually don't go together. Life-long Beat readers will learn much they didn't know before - but there are a lot of scholarly works that will achieve that end. What sets this apart is it's an entertaining, page-turning, light-hearted, Prankster-rich, playful romp in the land of words and ideas. And a funny thing is - it's actually a love story. You'll see.The book is printed in a large easy-to-read font, is extremely fast-paced, and comes with a rich "Dessert" offering tributes to both those still living and those who have passed, as well as details on the five different documentaries shot at the summit. The book also features 60 photographs of the various participants and activities, and an Introduction by Neal & Carolyn Cassady's only son, John Allen Cassady (who was named after Kerouac and Ginsberg).

Описание: "Cold Serial" paints the picture of five girls who were raped and strangled in the Dayton, Ohio, area between 1900 and 1909. The working conditions, lack of rights for women and police protection, and the sexism of the age portray these girls as victims not only of a crime but also of their time. As their stories unfold, a common thread appears, a modus operandi that begins to link them together. During that era, police did not recognize the lurking shadow of a predator. But through diligent research conducted by the author, it is now revealed.
"Cold Serial" contains riveting, fast-paced portraits of the personal and family tragedies of these five girls as well as the brutality and victim blaming of that time. Yet the deaths of these girls were not in vain, as they made significant contributions to the Dayton, Ohio, area and, ultimately, the nation. Sadly, though, according to the police authorities of the time, these crimes were never solved.
Using criminological thinking of today, the author attempts to solve these murders/rapes. Did he discover others? Can the suspect be placed at the scene of all of the crimes? Does a serial murderer/rapist emerge in a time even before the coining of the term? The escape of one girl creates a twist that opens the door to solving these crimes.
There are no memorials to any of these girls, nor were any tributes made. As their cases grew cold, their voices were silenced. "Cold Serial" provides the long-overdue justice and the voice they so richly deserve.
