FROM THE PUBLISHER -
Brand was Ibsen's first masterpiece, a poetic drama composed in 1865 and published to tremendous critical and popular acclaim. - The unsparing vision of a priest driven by faith to risk and witness the deaths of his wife and child gives Brand its icy ferocity. When he was writing it in Italy, Ibsen declared: 'It is blessedly peaceful out here; no one I know; I read nothing but the Bible. ' Geoffrey Hill provides a new Preface to this third and...

Based on multiarchival research conducted over almost three decades, this landmark account tells how a few men set off a war that would lead to tragedy for millions. Stein Tønnesson was one of the first historians to delve into scores of secret French, British, and American political, military, and intelligence documents. In this fascinating account of an unfolding tragedy, he brings this research to bear to disentangle the complex web of events, actions, and mentalities that led to thirty years of war in Indochina. As the story unfolds, Tønnesson challenges some widespread misconceptions, arguing that French general Leclerc fell...

American Supernatural Tales by S.T. Joshi (editor). New York. 2007. Penguin Books. keywords: Anthology Supernatural Horror Literature America. 477 pages. Cover art by Hans neleman. 9780143105046.
FROM THE PUBLISHER -
As Stephen King will attest , the popularity of the occult in American literature has only grown since the days of Edgar Allan Poe. American Supernatural Tales celebrates the richness of this tradition with chilling contributions from some of the nation's brightest literary lights, including Poe himself, H. P. Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, Ray Bradbury, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and—of course— Stephen King. By turns phantasmagoric, spectral, and demonic, this is a frighteningly good addition to Penguin Classics.

FROM THE PUBLISHER -
Alienated from society and paralysed by a sense of his own insignificance, the anonymous narrator of Dostoyevsky’s groundbreaking NOTES FROM UNDERGROUND tells the story of his tortured life. With bitter irony, he describes his refusal to become a worker in the ‘anthill’ of society and his gradual withdrawal to an existence ‘underground.’ The seemingly ordinary world of St. Petersburg takes on a nightmarish quality in THE DOUBLE when a government clerk encounters a man who...

FROM THE PUBLISHER -
A turn-of-the-century Jew undergoes a series of disfiguring operations that transform him into a ‘European’. Oskar Panizza's chilling story ‘The Operated Jew’ (1893) mingles loathing with compassion for its title character. Thirty years later, Panizza's tale was answered by ‘Mynona’, (Salomo Friedlaender) an urban German Jew who turned the story's tables in ‘The Operated Goy’ (1922). Jack Zipes translates these two stories into English and provides an extensive introduction as well as bibliographic essays that recover these two writers, placing their often bizarre tales within the history of modern...

It is 2001, and inflation is spiraling out of control in Argentina as Bruno Cadogan, an American graduate student specializing in Borges, arrives in Buenos Aires. Cadogan is on the trail of Julio Martel, an elusive tango singer rumored to be even better than Carlos Gardel, the greatest singer of the 1920s and ‘30s.

FROM THE PUBLISHER -
A fully annotated, bilingual edition, Calligrammes is a key work not only in Apollinaire's own development but in the evolution of modern French poetry. Apollinaire--Roman by birth, Polish by name (Wilhelm-Apollinaris de Kostrowitski), Parisian by choice--died at thirty-eight in 1918. Nevertheless, he became one of the leading figures in twentieth-century poetry, a transitional figure whose work at once echoes the Symbolists and anticipates the work of the Surrealists.

FROM THE PUBLISHER -
‘Lars Gustafsson's poetry is a poetry of stark and mysterious contrasts, stark because the combinations of apparently familiar objects can be startling and unexpected, and mysterious because the power of what is not said seems to be all the greater for the clarity with which the variegated details are presented. Witness the strange arrest, the expectancy that will never be fulfilled. .’ – from the introduction by Robin Fulton.

FROM THE PUBLISHER -
‘As with those great masters of the grotesque, Bosch and Goya, the world of Novica Tadic is distinct and immediately recognizable. We are in a city of loners, blind alleys, sewers, and unlit streets. Everywhere monsters lurk. We meet baby cyclops, giant hens, inanimate objects who make faces and other fantastic crossbreeds. For Tadic reality is unstable, prone any moment to break into separate and unfamiliar pieces, only to suddenly reassemble itself....

Part political disquisition, part travel journal, part self-exploration, Seek is a collection of essays and articles in which Denis Johnson essentially takes on the world.And not an obliging, easygoing world either; but rather one in which horror and beauty exist in such proximity that they might well be interchangeable. Where violence and poverty and moral transgression go unchecked, even unnoticed. A world of such wild, rocketing energy that, grasping it, anything at all is possible.
