Beschreibung

The Voyage of Bran is an exquisite example of early medieval Irish literature, blending myth, adventure, and the supernatural within a poetic narrative. The text recounts the journey of Bran mac Febail, who embarks on a seafaring quest after being lured by the enchanting call of a mysterious Otherworld. Rich in vivid imagery and intricate symbolism, this tale reflects the cultural milieu of early Ireland, where oral tradition flourished, and notions of heroism, the afterlife, and the natural versus the supernatural were interwoven. The lyrical style and dreamlike structure invite readers to explore themes of identity, destiny, and the transcendent qualities of nature, culminating in an exploration of deeper philosophical inquiries about existence and belonging. While the author of The Voyage of Bran remains anonymous, the work is set against the backdrop of a society steeped in tradition and myth-making. Emerging from the early Irish literary canon, this text reflects the beliefs and aspirations of its time, illustrating the significance of the sea as both a literal and metaphorical boundary between the familiar and the unknown. It serves as a portal to understanding ancient Celtic spirituality and the human quest for meaning beyond the mundane. This remarkable tale is a must-read for anyone interested in mythology, early literature, and Irish culture. It invites readers to journey alongside Bran, immersing them in rich landscapes and otherworldly realms. The Voyage of Bran offers a compelling reflection on the human condition, making it an indispensable addition to the libraries of scholars and casual readers alike.

    The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

    After the death of her husband, Miriam retreats into the quiet rhythm of quiltmaking and life on the farm. Each stitch is a thread of memory, a safeguard against a world that has taken too much. Her days are measured in silence—safe, predictable, untouched by risk.
     
    Then Levi returns.
     
    Her late husband’s cousin, long absent from the community, arrives to help with the harvest. He brings quiet strength, gentle hands, and a past that lingers like unfinished seams. Miriam never asked for company, especially not from someone who once cared too much, too silently.
     
    Levi has carried his own burden of guilt for years. His feelings for Miriam were always hidden, always wrong. But now, as autumn settles in and hours are shared between fences, fields, and fading light, something stirs again—soft, tentative, undeniable.
     
    In a world stitched by grief and custom, can two hearts find the courage to create something new from the silence between stitches?
