Elena non riesce ancora a credere che Damon sia di nuovo con lei: pensava di averlo perso per sempre. La felicità per il ritorno del vampiro però è offuscata dall'oscura minaccia che incombe su tutti loro. Quando Bonnie cade in un sonno profondo e inquietante dal quale sembra impossibile svegliarsi, Elena e i suoi amici capiscono che non c'è tempo da perdere: devono agire in fretta per salvare la ragazza e le loro stesse vite, e fermare il male una volta per tutte.

Tredici racconti, tredici visioni di società corrose, fondate sull’oppressione e la violenza, popolate da donne distrutte e uomini deboli, da creature d’incubo e orrori quotidiani: Camilla Grudova crea mondi paralleli surreali e grotteschi, in cui il terrore e la mostruosità convivono con una feroce ironia. Leggendo questi racconti, il lettore si trova incollato alla pagina, catturato da una suspence che fa presagire l’orrore e lo nasconde negli elementi inquietanti che ricompaiono periodicamentecreando un filo rosso attraverso la raccolta: bambole, macchine da cucire, lattine, specchi.

A woman falling out of sync with the world; a king’s servant hypnotized by his murderous horse; a transplanted ear with a mind of its own—the characters in these 25 stories live as interlopers in a world shaped by mysterious disappearances and unfathomable discrepancies between the real and imagined, revealing the breadth and depth of Evenson’s uncanny vision. 

Brian Evenson's fifth story collection constructs a human landscape as unearthly as it is mundane. Replete with the brutality, primordial waste, and savage blankness familiar to listeners of his earlier works, Evenson's Kafkaesque allegories entice the mind while stubbornly disordering it.

Vier literarische Juwelen, die unseren ständigen Krieg zwischen Gut und Böse ins Extreme treiben. SCHNAPPSCHUSS ist die verstörende Geschichte eines Jungen, der von einem brutalen Schläger bedroht wird. Dieser besitzt eine Sofortbildkamera, die Erinnerungen löscht, Schnappschuss für Schnappschuss... In GELADEN stoppt der Sicherheitsbeamte eines Einkaufszentrums mutig eine Amokläuferin und wird zum Helden der modernen Waffenrechtsbewegung. Doch als eine Reporterin die wahren Hintergründe der Geschichte aufdeckt, dreht der Beamte durch.

The Shadow on the Wall brings together Ruskin Bond’s most chilling works of fright and terror. The 21 stories in this book include classics such as ‘A Face in the Dark’, ‘The Chakrata Cat’ and ‘Susanna’s Seven Husbands’, along with a dose of eerie new tales that have never been published before.

A sentient, murderous prosthetic leg; shadowy creatures lurking behind a shimmering wall; brutal barrow men: Of all the terrors that populate The Glassy, Burning Floor of Hell, perhaps the most alarming are the beings who decimated the habitable Earth: humans. In this new short-story collection, Brian Evenson envisions a chilling future beyond the Anthropocene that forces excruciating decisions about survival and self-sacrifice in the face of toxic air and a natural world torn between revenge and regeneration.  

A newborn’s absent face appears on the back of someone else’s head, a filmmaker goes to gruesome lengths to achieve the silence he’s after for his final scene, and a therapist begins, impossibly, to appear in a troubled patient's room late at night. In these stories of doubt, delusion, and paranoia, no belief, no claim to objectivity, is immune to the distortions of human perception. Here, self-deception is a means of justifying our most inhuman impulses—whether we know it or not.
