Ernst Benjamin Salomo Raupach was born on 21st May 1784 at Straupitz in Silesia, a son of the village pastor. After attending the gymnasium at Liegnitz, he studied theology at the university of Halle. This led to a tutorship in St Petersburg in 1804 and occasionally some preaching in the German Lutheran church. He was also hard at work writing his first dramatic tragedies and in 1817 he gained a professorship in German literature and history. In 1822, after anti-German outbreaks in Russia, he left for Italy and thence to Berlin, where he would remain for the rest of his life. In his career he wrote some 80 plays and other works which greatly influenced life and Culture in the Prussian capital across tragedies, comedies and historical dramas. His seminal early prose vampire story ‘Wake Not the Dead’ was originally published in 1823 in Minerva Magazine. When translated into English it was for many decades wrongly attributed to Johann Ludwig Tieck. Ernst Raupach died in Berlin on 18th March 1852. He was 67.Voir livre
Vernon Lee was born Violet Paget on 4th October 1856 in Boulogne, France to intellectual expatriate British parents. In common with several other very talented literary women of the day she felt it necessary to publish under a masculine pseudonym in order for her writing to be taken seriously. Indeed she seems to have adopted that persona across her whole lifestyle becoming personally known and acknowledged by all as Vernon Lee and accordingly dressed as a man. Her first published work, in 1880, was taken from her collection of essays that had originally appeared in Fraser’s Magazine with the scholarly title of; ‘Studies of the Eighteenth Century in Italy.’ It reflected her passion for music and centered on the rich creative lives of poet-librettist Pietro Metastasio and dramatists Carlo Goldoni and Carlo Gozzi. She wrote over a dozen volumes of essays on art, music, and travel with her scholarly appreciation animated by wit and imagination. Lee was well-regarded as an expert on the Italian Renaissance and was a proponent of the Aesthetic movement. Her literary talents were extensive and she wrote a number of novels and plays. Perhaps her best remembered works are her haunting and powerful short stories exploring the supernatural. Lee has often received accolades for these and glowingly compared to other authors such as M R James. A committed pacifist she was resolved to protest against World War I. Her social activism in other areas was perhaps fueled by her feminist beliefs. In her private life she was a lesbian and had long-term passionate relationships with three women including the doomed author and poet, Amy Levy. Vernon Lee died on 13th February 1935 in San Gervasio Bresciano, Italy. In Dionea we discover that a young girl has been washed ashore near Genoa. Her life could be one of misery or success depending on the fates. But despite her ravishing beauty Dionea grows up to be not the woman all had hoped she might become.Voir livre

Robert Sheehan is one of Ireland’s brightest stars of the screen, both at home and abroad. Best known for his roles in Love/Hate and The Umbrella Academy, Sheehan has received widespread critical acclaim for his acting talent In his debut collection of short stories, Robert Sheehan disappears into characters, challenging the complacencies of everyday experience, often from entirely unexpected angles. Informed by the author’s peripatetic life, Disappearing Act reflects on the absurdity of human behaviour. Sheehan delves deep into his characters’ streams of self-talk and self-imposed delusions, exploring the dark impulses that lurk below the shiny surfaces of many outwardly normal lives. Dark, provocative and often humorous, the collection will stay with the listener long after the book is finished. “A whacked-out kaleidoscopic miasma of delightful abandon and fun … you’ve seen Sheehan act – now watch him dazzle.” PATRICK MCCABE “A dazzlingly eclectic collection of short stories” BEN ELTON “Lots of great stories and voices. Reminded me of Irvine Welsh’s short stories” FRANKIE BOYLEVoir livre
