    Introduced by Madeleine Thien, author of the Booker finalist novel Do Not Say We Have Nothing 
     
    From one of the most highly celebrated young Chinese writers, three dazzling novellas of Northeast China, mixing realism, mysticism, and noir. 
     
    An inventor dreams of escaping his drab surroundings in a flying machine. A criminal, trapped beneath a frozen lake, fights a giant fish. A strange girl pledges to ignite a field of sorghum stalks. 
     
    Rouge Street presents three novellas by Shuang Xuetao, the lauded young Chinese writer whose frank, fantastical short fiction has already inspired comparisons to Ernest Hemingway and Haruki Murakami. Located in China’s frigid Northeast, Shenyang, the  
    author’s birthplace, boasts an illustrious past—legend holds that the emperor’s makeup was manufactured here. But while the city enjoyed renewed importance as an industrial hub under Mao Zedong, China’s subsequent transition from communism to a market  
    economy led to an array of social ills—unemployment, poverty, alcoholism, domestic violence, divorce, suicide—that gritty Shenyang epitomizes. 
     
    Orbiting the toughest neighborhood of a postindustrial city whose vast, inhospitable landscape makes every aspect of life a struggle, these many-voiced missives are united by Shuang Xuetao’s singular style—one that balances hardscrabble naturalism with the  
    transcendent and faces the bleak environs with winning humor. Rouge Street illuminates not only the hidden pains of those left behind in an extraordinary economic boom but also the inspiration and grace they, nevertheless, manage to discover.

    A smashing debut collection from award-winning filmmaker Lulu Keating
    		 
    Splinter & Shard is the debut story collection by acclaimed filmmaker-turned-writer Lulu Keating. Vivid and precise, the stories in this collection offer an uncompromising journey into what it means to be human.
    		 
    Keating catches her characters at their pivotal moments of discovery, self-reckoning, and change. A dutiful mother of grown children learns a life-shattering secret about two of her children that upends her life. A macho man in mid-life must reconcile himself to his new role as a cosmetics consultant. A young woman, pregnant and unhappy, travels to the Yukon to bury her husband. An old woman turns away from her family to bond with the convicts of the small jail next door. An orphaned girl stumbles onto an unexpected connection with a stranger.
    		 
    In these stories, flaws and strengths are writ large as characters fumble toward redemption.
    		 
    From flash fiction to deep-dive character studies, Splinter & Shard turns over the rocks of everyday experience to reveal the psychological and philosophical truths underneath. The stories range back and forth in time, from Nova Scotia to the Yukon (with a side trip to Florida), and explore universal themes — loss, infidelity, faith, mortality, and love.

    Title: The Dunwich Horror — Part 4 of 10 
    Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
    Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
    Original Publication: 1929 
    Public Domain: Yes 
    Series Placement: Timeless Terrors No. 62 — Part 4 of 10 
    Description: 
    Welcome to Timeless Terrors No. 62, continuing H. P. Lovecraft’s chilling masterpiece of cosmic dread: The Dunwich Horror. 
    The strange occurrences at the Whateley farmhouse intensify. Wilbur Whateley’s unnatural growth and mysterious abilities are only the beginning, as the unseen presence in the attic grows ever more powerful. Shadows move where they should not, the hills tremble with otherworldly force, and the village whispers of terror spread farther than ever. 
    Locked away with his grandfather, Wilbur nurtures a secret that is too vast, too alien, and too hungry to remain hidden. Every sound, every shadow, hints at the approaching horror, and the villagers’ fear grows alongside the incomprehensible forces at work. 
    Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance brings Lovecraft’s cosmic horror vividly to life, exploring the thin boundary between human reality and ancient, unknowable forces. 
    This is Part 4 of a 10-part complete audiobook. Stay tuned — the nightmare continues.
