    A country doctor visits the spacious house of a Baron. But when he arrives, he draws up in shock. Everything inside and outside of the house, down to the clothing of the inhabitants, is all the same color – white. Why is everything about the house eerily bloodless?  
     
    Mary Fortune was one of the earliest female writers of crime fiction, and likely the first to write from the point of view of the detective. She enjoyed a prolific career in Australia, where she also wrote under the pseudonyms Waif Wanderer and W.W. The White Maniac was originally published in The Australian Journal, July 13th, 1867.

    These stories can be read at parties and gatherings to create a good conversation. People can make comments and have a laugh. Some of the stories are a bit silly but funny with a lot of intelligent humour thrown in for a good mix. Appealing to children and young adults, middle-aged and elderly people so all people can have a laugh, from eight to one hundred and eight all people are included. I hope you all have a laugh and don’t forget to share the laughter with friends. 
    It would be stretching my brain too far to write one hundred stories. I can think of some funny bits I have already written; they make me laugh and they might make you chuckle too. Like the zookeepers who found a job in the Air Force and now dispatches missiles. Or the girl bungee jumping in a dress and G-string, or the streaker who put his clothes back on and left the building. There are the stories about: the astronauts who were left to wander the universe for eternity, the horse who had his stripes painted on like a zebra, the monkey who packed his bags and moved back to Africa and the aliens who survived their crash landing and are walking the Earth today. These are just a few of the stories that make me laugh and there are many more! 
    There are 55 stories, I am sure something will give a giggle, a deep chuckle sprinkled with some hilarious laughs!

    The tale of a man pushed to the brink of madness- for lovers of Edgar Allen Poe and Robert Eggers' The Lighthouse  
    1870. Apprentice lighthouseman James Meakes joins two others at the remote offshore rock of Ripsaw Reef... as a replacement for a keeper whose death there remains unexplained. 
    Meakes’ suspicions grow as he accustoms himself to his new vertical world. He finds clues and obscure messages... is there a secret fourth occupant sharing the space, slipping unseen between staircases? 
    With winter approaching, the keepers become isolated utterly from shore. Sea and wind rage against the tower. Danger is part of the life. Death is not uncommon. And yet as the storm builds, the elements pale against a threat more wild and terrifying than any of them could have imagined.

    The award-winning author’s “gorgeously-crafted second collection of stories” explores moments of profound loss, discovery, and transition (Charlotte Observer). 
     
    The stories in this volume explore the myriad ways people lose, find, and hold on to one another. When all else fails her characters—science, religion, family, self—the powerful act of storytelling keeps their broken lives together. Each story in this rewarding and multifaceted collection introduces people who yearn for better lives and find themselves entangled in the hopes and dreams that heal and bind us all. 
     
    The title story—chosen by John Updike for The Best American Short Stories of the Century anthology—follows two generations of a family driven by the “patient and brutal need that people called hope.” In “The Jap Room,” winner of the 2008 Goodheart Prize, a woman tries to help her WWII veteran husband finally come home. “Rowing to Darien” introduces a famous English actress as she rows away from her husband’s rice plantation. In “Hush” a gravely ill man encounters himself in the darkness of Kentucky’s Mammoth Cave. These and other stories deftly broach universal themes of love, loss, and the redemptive power of storytelling. 
     
    Foreword by the Flannery O’Connor Prize–winning author Mary Hood
