Werewolves - A Short Story...

Arthur Conan Doyle, ETA...

Many of us are cautious around dogs. However friendly they seem their energy and open panting jaws seem to summon some primitive instinct within us to be aware.

Once we advance to wolves those fears become rather more persuasive. Their wild and seemingly vicious, determined natures can induce panic in even the most foolhardy of us. Nature admires winners.

From there it is but a short step to the supernatural evil of Werewolves. Now fear is definitely the thing we feel pulsing through our veins summoning a flight response. But no matter what our hopes are werewolves, whether real or in the imaginations of this cast of chilling unrepentant authors, stroke knowing chords of terror into every sentence, as the pages turn our uneasiness begins to escalate. Terror begins to track our every step.

With such literary craftsmen as Saki, Hugh Walpole, Ambrose Bierce, Rudyard Kipling, Arthur Conan Doyle and others, that feeling happens time and time again.

The Secret Life of John le Carre

Adam Sisman

The extraordinary secret life of a great novelist, which his biographer could not publish while le Carré was alive.  
 
Secrecy came naturally to John le Carré, and there were some secrets that he fought fiercely to keep. Adam Sisman's definitive biography, published in 2015, provided a revealing portrait of this fascinating man; yet some aspects of his subject remained hidden. 
Nowhere was this more so than in his private life. Apparently content in his marriage, the novelist conducted a string of love affairs over five decades. To these relationships he brought much of the tradecraft that he had learned as a spy - cover stories, cut-outs and dead letter boxes. These clandestine operations brought an element of danger to his life, but they also meant deceiving those closest to him. Small wonder that betrayal became a running theme in his work. 
In trying to manage his biography, the novelist engaged in a succession of skirmishes with his biographer. While he could control what Sisman wrote about him in his lifetime, he accepted that the truth would eventually become known. Following his death in 2020, what had been withheld can now be revealed. 
The Secret Life of John le Carré reveals a hitherto-hidden perspective on the life and work of the spy-turned-author and a fascinating meditation on the complex relationship between biographer and subject. “Now that he is dead,” Sisman writes, “we can know him better.”

God Are You Listening?

Anonym

Some prayers are whispered through tears. Some questions are never asked out loud. But what happens when the silence becomes too heavy to carry alone? In God, Are You Listening?, Tiffany Monroe shares her powerful and deeply personal memoir of growing up between Brooklyn and Houston, where faith, family, and fear often collided. Raised in a household marked by silence, domestic violence, and the rigid expectations of religion, Tiffany learned early to turn her deepest questions toward God—questions about love, survival, and whether He could truly hear her cries in the night. With raw honesty and lyrical storytelling, Tiffany takes readers on a journey from her childhood years into young adulthood, where school became her refuge, music her voice, and prayer her lifeline. Along the way, she endured heartbreak, abandonment, betrayal, and loss—but also discovered moments of grace: teachers who believed in her, friendships that felt like family, and glimpses of God’s mercy in the most unexpected places. More than a memoir, God, Are You Listening? is a story of survival and faith. It is about learning to speak when life tells you to stay silent, and about discovering that even in the darkest seasons, God is present. Tiffany’s journey will resonate with anyone who has ever wrestled with trauma, questioned their worth, or wondered if their prayers were being heard. This book is for the quiet ones, the broken ones, the strong ones who hold everything together while falling apart inside. It is for anyone who has ever whispered a prayer into the silence and longed for an answer. If you have ever wondered whether God hears you, Tiffany’s story offers a powerful reminder: He does. And He always has.
