Summary

"Twilight in Italy" is a small book of travel essays, worth reading both for their own sake and for the light they throw on the context of Lawrence's work. In 1912, a young D.H. Lawrence left England for the first time and travelled to northern Italy. He spent nearly a year on the shores of Lake Garda, lodged in elegantly decaying houses set amid lemon groves and surrounded by the fading life of traditional Italy.

    Doug Bradley's Spinechillers Volume Two, presents four classic stories from the masters of horror literature. It kicks off with Charles Dickens' friend and collaborator Wilkie Collins' eerie tale of a man's dream of his own murder that comes too true 'The Dream Woman'. Second on the bill is the master of American literature Edgar Allan Poe's classic story of doomed love 'The Oval Portrait'.Making his first appearance in the Spinechillers series is Arthur Conan Doyle. Widely known for creating Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle was also the author of a number of horror stories that introduced new ideas to the genre. Volume Two includes his story 'The Ring of Thoth', a tale of Egyptian mummies, immortality, and deadly rivalry spanning four millennia. What better way to round off this volume than with the classic HP Lovecraft short story 'The Tomb'. The story works well as a companion piece to Volume One's 'The Outsider', and concerns a mans desperate quest to find a place in the dark tomb of his ancestors.As with Volume One, Alistair Lock's evocative sound design, score and additional sound effects, used sparingly, add an atmospheric texture to the stories.This volume was recorded at the audio workshop London and engineered by Joseph Degnan. Produced by Alexander Finbow.

    This is a werewolf tale, by the famous author of The Man in the Iron Mask, The Count of Monte Cristo, and The Three Musketeers.
     
    "It is an exciting story of a diabolical pact; more than that it is an acute and merciless study of the corruption of a man's character by envy, and a colorful and ironic account of high and low life in rural eighteenth-century France. Like all Dumas stories it is lively, fast-moving, romantic without being sentimental, and always readable." ~ from the Introduction by L. Sprague de Camp
    "Dumas's most successful supernatural work by far... an entertaining historical romance based on traditional legends of the werewolf."
    An Author's Republic audio production.
