Sinopse

Edward Bulwer-Lytton's 'Falkland' is a captivating tale of love, betrayal, and redemption set in 17th-century England. Written in a dramatic and eloquent style, the book reflects the Romantic literature of the era with its focus on emotions, nature, and the individual's struggle against society. The author masterfully weaves together intricate relationships and inner conflicts, creating a richly layered narrative that keeps readers engaged from start to finish. Bulwer-Lytton's use of vivid imagery and poetic language adds depth to the storytelling, making 'Falkland' a timeless classic in the Musaicum Romance Series. Edward Bulwer-Lytton, a prominent Victorian novelist and politician, drew inspiration from his own experiences and observations of society to create the complex characters and compelling plot of 'Falkland'. His deep understanding of human nature and power dynamics shines through in the book, offering readers a thought-provoking exploration of love, honor, and the consequences of one's actions. I highly recommend 'Falkland' to anyone who appreciates historical romance novels with a touch of philosophical insight. Bulwer-Lytton's masterful storytelling and profound themes make this book a must-read for literature enthusiasts and fans of classic fiction.

    Joyce Carol Oates assembles an outstanding cast of authors—including Margaret Atwood, Tananarive Due, and Megan Abbott—to explore, subvert, and reinvent one of the most vital subgenres of horror.  
     
    Featuring brand-new stories by: Margaret Atwood, Tananarive Due, Joyce Carol Oates, Megan Abbott, Aimee Bender, Cassandra Khaw, Lisa Lim, Elizabeth Hand, Valerie Martin, Raven Leilani, Sheila Kohler, Joanna Margaret, Lisa Tuttle, Aimee LaBrie, and Yumi Dineen Shiroma. 
     
    While the common belief is that “body horror” as a subgenre of horror fiction dates back to the 1970s, Joyce Carol Oates suggests that Medusa, the snakehaired gorgon in Greek mythology, is the “quintessential emblem of female body horror.” In A Darker Shade of Noir: New Stories of Body Horror by Women Writers, Oates has assembled a spectacular cast to explore this subgenre focusing on distortions to the human body in the most fascinating of ways.
