Описание:
A bestial face appears at windows in the night. In the big white house on the hill angels are said to appear. A forgotten tenant in an isolated building becomes addicted to milk. A strange goddess is worshipped by a home-invading disciple. The least remembered gods still haunt the oldest forests. Cannibalism occurs in high society at the end of the world. The sainted undead follow their prophet to the Great Dead Sea. A confused and vengeful presence occupies the home of a first-time buyer . . .
In ghastly harmony with the nightmarish visions of the award-winning writer's novels, these stories blend a lifelong appreciation of horror culture with the grotesque fascinations and childlike terrors that are the author's own. Adam L.G. Nevill's best early horror stories are collected here for the first time.
Praise for Some Will Not Sleep
"Great storytelling, but across a wider palate and range of styles than you might have expected, leading to some delightfully unexpected visions and hellscapes." Gingernuts of Horror.
"There is not one single tale which feels less than the others, none which seem to be mere 'filler'. They are beautifully crafted, original and complete works which nevertheless fit well together as arranged by the author." This is Horror.
"In Some Will Not Sleep nothing is sacred, nothing is safe, and goodness me, if you like horror fiction you're going to absolutely love every damn minute." Pop Mythology.
"Eleven wonderfully macabre tales that cover the whole gamut of the horrific. The supernatural rubs shoulders with the bizarre, body horror and psychological trauma walk hand in hand." The Eloquent Page.
"An excellent collection, recommended for anyone interested in the current surge in weird fiction or short stories in general." Unsung Stories.
"Verdict: A collection full of creeping dread, well worth a read. 9/10" SciFi Bulletin.
"Some Will Not Sleep contains 11 short stories, 11 stories that takes you different times and places. 11 stories that will give you your fix of the macabre. 5 Stars" Terror Tree.
"It isn't often that I read a short story collection and enjoy every entry, but with this book I did." The Grim Reader.
"There are eleven stories in the book, eight of which are written in first person narrative, and each and every one is a cracker - here you'll find monsters (including those of the human variety), ghosts, arcane rituals and some of the most disturbing imagery." Anthony Watson.

Jostling crowd, crying kids, supplicated by stench of antiseptic - not an ideal place for stories to start. But in real life, most stories end up here - the chaotic 'Indian hospital'.
Caught between the ailing patient, the angry relatives and poor infrastructure, the 'Indian' doctor is supposed to offer magical cure. As he tries his best to pull a rabbit or two, out of his white coat pocket, the heavy emotional sandbag on his shoulder weighs him down. The unedited experience for you to laugh and cry.

Описание:
In Black Magic Death Sphere: (science) fictions a young man cites his obsession with the creation of alternate universes as a rationalization for not answering his girlfriend's marriage proposal; James Franco travels to the edge of the universe where he meets a slightly different version of himself with whom he lives out the rest of his life; a man, snowed in at his hotel, meets a future version of himself who has questionable intentions; and the famous Schr dinger's Cat thought experiment comes to life in the form of a Choose Your Own Adventure story. These are just a few of the genre-bending tales contained within this weird, funny, and anxious set of mind-blown and broken-hearted science fiction stories.
Описание: A major contribution to Holocaust studies, the book examines the capacity of supernatural elements to dramatize the ethical and representational difficulties of Holocaust fiction. Exploring texts by such writers as D.M. Thomas and Markus Zusak it will appeal to scholars and students of Holocaust literature, magic realism, and contemporary fiction.
Описание: To what extent did mythological figures such as Circe and Medea influence the representation of the powerful ‘oriental’ enchantress in modern Western art? What role did the ancient gods and heroes play in the construction of the imaginary worlds of the modern fantasy genre? What is the role of undead creatures like zombies and vampires in mythological films? Looking across the millennia, from the distrust of ancient magic and oriental cults, which threatened the new-born Christian religion, to the revival and adaptation of ancient myths and religion in the arts centuries later, this book offers an original analysis of the reception of ancient magic and the supernatural, across a wide variety of different media – from comics to film, from painting to opera. Working in a variety of fields across the globe, the authors of these essays deconstruct certain scholarly traditions by proposing original interdisciplinary approaches and collaborations, showing to what extent the visual and performing arts of different periods interlink and shape cultural and social identities.
