  "The Tree" is a macabre short story by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft. It was written in 1920, and published in October 1921 in The Tryout. Set in ancient Greece, the story concerns two sculptors who accept a commission with ironic consequences.
  Lovecraft wrote "The Tree" early in his career. He was dismissive of the story in a 1936 letter. Such stories, he said, "if typed on good stock make excellent shelf-paper, but little else." The assessment of Lovecraft authority S. T. Joshi was that although the story "may be a trifle obvious… it is an effective display of Lovecraft's skill in handling a historical setting."

  Evelyn Reed has been prepared for one purpose: to become the Hollow Bride. In a world held together by the fragile Veil Accord, a royal union is the only thread keeping the mortal and fae realms from tearing apart. When Evelyn arrives at the terrifying Thorn-Crowned Court, she brings neither the tears nor the terror the immortal beings expect. Instead, she offers only chilling serenity. Stepping out of the human kingdoms and into a hidden dominion of frost, shadow, and living bramble, Evelyn must face her new reality. The enchanted gates of thorn test her, and a breathtaking, unsettling court waits in absolute silence to see if she will break. But Evelyn is not like other mortal offerings. She feels the bone-deep cold and sees the monstrous beauty of the fae, yet she refuses to flinch. Immerse yourself in a dark, atmospheric fantasy where a deadly treaty demands a bride, and the bride refuses to tremble.

  Our Mutual Friend

  Charles Dickens

  Our Mutual Friend, written in 1864-1865, is the last novel completed by Charles Dickens and is one of his most sophisticated works, combining savage satire with social analysis. It centres on, in the words of critic J. Hillis Miller, quoting the book's character Bella Wilfer, "money, money, money, and what money can make of life".
  Most reviewers in the 1860s continued to praise Dickens's skill as a writer in general, but did not review this novel in detail. Some found the plot both too complex and not well laid out. The Times of London found the first few chapters did not draw the reader into the characters. In the 20th century, however, reviewers began to find much to approve in the later novels of Dickens, including Our Mutual Friend. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, some reviewers suggested that Dickens was, in fact, experimenting with structure, and that the characters considered somewhat flat and not recognized by the contemporary reviewers were meant rather to be true representations of the Victorian working class and the key to understanding the structure of the society depicted by Dickens in the novel.
