Sinopse

The Night Ocean is a fascinating anthology that navigates the depths of cosmic horror and the chilling mysteries of the sea, echoing the grandeur and terror characteristic of both Lovecraftian and maritime literature. The collection spans an array of literary forms, including short stories, letters, and speculative essays, each immersing readers into a world where reality blurs with the surreal and the unimaginable lurks beneath the waves. The narratives, characterized by their brooding atmospheres and intricate mythos, are unified by themes of isolation, existential dread, and the sublime indifference of the universe. Highlighted pieces delve into ancient myths reimagined for a modern audience, inviting readers to ponder what lies beyond the veil of known reality. Curated by the formidable minds of Howard Phillips Lovecraft and his close literary confidant Robert Hayward Barlow, The Night Ocean brings together a compelling blend of early 20th-century speculative fiction. Lovecraft, often hailed as the architect of contemporary horror, alongside Barlow—whose keen interest in anthropology and folklore enriches the collection—craft narratives that are as insightful as they are unsettling. Drawing from the cultural and literary zeitgeist of their time, these authors weave narratives that echo with the philosophical concerns of modernity, making this collection a testament to their literary legacies and influence on speculative fiction. The Night Ocean offers readers an unparalleled journey through a mosaic of hauntings and wonder, masterfully bringing together multiple perspectives and approaches within a single volume. The anthology invites both seasoned enthusiasts and new explorers of the genre to immerse themselves in its pages, appreciating its educational value and the complex dialogues it initiates. By engaging with the works within, readers encounter a synthesis of terror and beauty, guided by voices that continue to resonate within the ever-expanding universe of speculative fiction, making it a must-read for those looking to deepen their understanding of horror's rich, multifaceted landscape.

    Stella Benson was born on the 6th January 1892 in Easthope, Shropshire to parents who were landed gentry. 
    Her early years involved frequent household moves which was difficult for the child as she suffered from ill-health.  Some of her early education was spent at schools in Germany and Switzerland and by 10 she had developed a lifelong habit of keeping a diary. 
    In the following years her parents separated, and she rarely saw her father. When she did, he encouraged to pause her writing until she had further experience and could better make sense of the world.  When he died, she learned he had been an alcoholic. 
    A winter spent in the West Indies provided material for her first novel ‘I Pose’ published the following year in 1915. 
    During the War years she became involved in the women's suffrage movement and dedicated time outside of writing to support the troops and help the poor. 
    In 1918 she decided to travel spending much time in California, where she also tutored at the University of California, and continued to write.  In China she met her future husband and after marrying in London, journeyed with him to his various Custom postings through Nanning, Beihai, and Hong Kong and the Far East. 
    The works continued to flow novels, short stories, travel essays all helped to build a deserved and burgeoning reputation. 
    Although her works are now in the forgotten and neglected department her writing style, characters, and narratives more than capably demonstrate her obvious talents.   
    Stella Benson died of pneumonia on the 7th December 1933, at Hạ Long in the Vietnamese province of Tonkin.  She was 40.

    A Little Book about Big ChangeWe all want the same things. We want to live a life of purpose and meaning. We want to leave a legacy for our children and grandchildren. We want to leave the world a better place. And yet we spend so much time wringing our hands over what’s wrong and not nearly enough time fixing those things within our control.John Kasich has walked the corridors of power both in the politics, as a former leader of Congress, governor of Ohio, presidential candidate, and in the private sector, as an in-demand public speaker, best-selling author and a strategic advisor to businesses and large non-profits. Yet he’s seen that the most powerful movements have started from the bottom up. Rather than waiting on Washington, the solutions happen once we become leaders in our own lives and communities. The strength and resilience of our nation lies in each of us. That’s what this book is about.In It’s Up to Us, Kasich shares the ten little ways we each can bring about big change. Taken together, they chart a path for each to follow as we look to live a life bigger than ourselves. Taken one-by-one, they can help to lift us from a place of outrage or complacency or helplessness and move us closer to our shared American dream.
