Sinossi

In "Winesburg, Ohio: A Group of Tales of Ohio Small Town Life," Sherwood Anderson presents a poignant tapestry of intertwined stories that delve into the lives of the inhabitants of a fictional Midwestern town. Anderson's groundbreaking use of stream-of-consciousness narrative and vivid, impressionistic imagery reveals the deep-seated emotions and aspirations of each character, gracefully portraying the isolation, longing, and existential struggles faced by small-town residents. Set against the backdrop of early 20th century America, the tales reflect the shift from agrarian values to the burgeoning modernity, capturing the essence of American life with unflinching honesty and empathy. Sherwood Anderson, an influential figure in American modernism, was born in 1876 in Camden, Ohio, and his own experiences in small-town America deeply informed his writing. Anderson's disillusionment with conventional societal norms and his subsequent discovery of artistic expression played a pivotal role in shaping the narrative style and themes he explores in "Winesburg, Ohio." His keen insights into human psychology and relationships were influenced by his personal encounters, making this collection both autobiographical and universal. This seminal work is essential reading for those interested in the complexities of human nature and the social dynamics of small-town America. Anderson's lyrical prose and profound character studies invite readers to reflect on the shared human experience, making it a timeless exploration of isolation and connection that resonates across generations.

Grayson Ace

Dr. Cage explores the minds (and bodies) of his patients, but is he brave enough to find love? 
Dr Hunter Cage is an Ivy League educated sex therapist who is not afraid to be hands-on, when the treatment plan calls for it. He knows that sex is an integral part of mental wellness and his unorthodox methods work. 
When he leaves small town Pennsylvania to launch a private practice in San Francisco, he looks forward to helping a larger client base with more varied treatment modalities. Dr. Cage is just what the gay men of San Francisco need—he successfully treats men who refuse to bottom (and top!) and sufferers of sexual addiction. 
There’s just one problem: he can’t treat himself. Instead, Dr. Cage scours dating apps for men he can spend the night with and send home the next morning. He even hooks up with a flight attendant he has only ever kissed at 36,000 feet. But love has a way of finding a person. Will Dr. Cage know it when he sees it? Or is he destined for loneliness? 
Let Dr. Cage write you a prescription for twelve steamy tales.

In a medieval Norwegian village, at a time when Christianity has just begun to replace the Old Ways, a young woman named Skera is accused of murdering her sister and the cruel priest who raised them.
Hunted and alone, she flees into the shadow of the forest in search of Valdalla, a reclusive witch who still practices the ancient arts, and who agrees to take her on as her apprentice.
But as Skera’s prowess in the Old Ways grows, so does the pull she feels toward a magic that's forbidden. A darkness that could undo them. A spell that could bring back her sister.
