Sinopse

An ancient English spirit finds himself utterly outmatched by a modern, pragmatic American family who refuses to be intimidated by his hauntings. This delightful clash of cultures turns the traditional ghost story on its head with humor and heart. Amidst the comedic failures of the specter, a touching bond forms that offers the chance for eternal peace. It is a whimsical and enduring tale about the power of kindness to bridge the gap between worlds.

    The Domain of Arnheim by Edgar Allan Poe is a richly imaginative tale of beauty, wealth, art, and the human desire to create perfection. Blending philosophical reflection with dreamlike landscape description, Poe explores the vision of a man who uses immense fortune to design an earthly paradise. Elegant, strange, and deeply atmospheric, this classic work reveals Poe’s fascination with aesthetics, nature, imagination, and the mysterious limits of human ambition.

    Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
     
    In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
     
    The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
     
    Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
     
    In this volume Cursed words are used with spite and venom to exact revenge on others, as perhaps only our classic authors can.
