Sinopsis

In "Eris," Robert W. Chambers delves into the realms of myth and psychological tension to weave a tapestry that is as engaging as it is disquieting. The narrative combines elements of symbolism and rich, impressionistic prose, reflecting Chambers' fascination with the occult and the enigmatic nature of human relationships. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century anxieties, the text harmoniously reflects the shifting literary context, embodying the decadent and modernist movements that question reality and consciousness while drawing on classical mythology to inform contemporary dilemmas. Chambers, an American writer known for pioneering the horror genre, often explored themes of beauty and melancholy. His extensive travels and deep interests in art and mythology significantly influenced his creations. "Eris," in particular, showcases Chambers' engagement with the philosophical complexities of conflict and desire, encapsulated through his personal experiences and observations of a world on the brink of transformation. His unique perspective illuminates the intricate dance between chaos and order, making it a significant text of its time. Readers seeking an exploration of existential themes intertwined with lyrical prose will find "Eris" a compelling and thought-provoking read. Chambers'Äô insight into human nature and the mystical elements he employs create a rich reading experience that resonates with anyone interested in the deeper questions of life and art.

    Salem, Massachusetts, B&B owner Charlene Morris will need the luck of the Irish—and the help of a ghost—to unveil a hooded killer . . . 
     
     
     
    Charlene has hired a van to ferry her B&B guests to an all-you-can-eat corned beef and cabbage dinner hosted by Salem's Irish community at the Ancient Order of Hibernians club—but she should have booked a hearse. It's never a good sign when the family black sheep drunkenly crashes a party by punching the guy dressed as a leprechaun. But things go from troublesome to fatal when Charlene stumbles upon a second brawl in an upper room—and this fight Connor Gallagher loses, his anonymous assailant rushing past Charlene, hidden by a hoodie. 
     
     
      
    Now Detective Sam Holden has another homicide on his hands, with Charlene as the only eyewitness. Even if she can't give the police sketch artist much to go on, Charlene is determined to ID the murderer, with the help of Dr. Jack Strathmore, the charming ghost who haunts her B&B. The answer lies in the motive, and to uncover that sleuth and spook will need to shine a light on Connor's shady past—before the killer pulls another Irish goodbye . . .
