The Lair of the White Worm

Category: Author:novel 

又名: The Garden of Evil 恶魔花园 "The Lair of the White Worm" is a fantastic, dream-like narrative whose only saving grace is that there's nothing else like it out there. The plot is a maze of myth and pseudo-gothic imagery that, while never the least bit convincing, is somehow irresistible.

Category: Author:Bret Harte布勒特·哈特 

 “In the Carquinez Woods, in the arms of the man you were just defending—Low, the half-breed.” The room had become so dark that from the road nothing could be distinguished. Only the momentary sound of struggling feet was heard. “Sit down,” said Brace's voice, “and don't be a fool.

Jerry of the Islands

Category: Author:Jack London杰克·伦敦 

The action was placed in the Solomon Islands.  The action was praised by the critics and reviewers as a highly creditable effort of the imagination.  As regards reality—they said there wasn’t any.  Of course, as every one knew, kinky-haired cannibals no longer obtained on the earth’s surface, much less ran around with nothing on, chopp...

The Beautiful Lady

Category: Author:novel 

‎"The Beautiful Lady", is another of the short novels from Booth Tarkington's early career.Nothing could have been more painful to my sensitiveness than to occupy myself, confused with blushes, at the center of the whole world as a living advertisement of the least amusing ballet in Paris.

An Unsentimental Journey through Cornwall

Category: Author:novel 

 I believe in holidays. Not in a frantic rushing about from place to place, glancing at everything and observing nothing; flying from town to town, from hotel to hotel, eager to "do" and to see a country, in order that when they get home they may say they have done it, and seen it.

Tales of the Wilderness

Category: Author:Boris Pilniak 

The English reading public knows next to nothing of contemporary Russian Literature. In the great age of the Russian Realistic Novel, which begins with Turgeniev and finishes with Chekhov, the English reader is tolerably at home.

In the Track of the Troops

Category: Author:Robert Michael Ballantyne 

 They are so full of interest to myself and to my old mother, that I hasten to write them down while yet vivid and fresh in my memory, in the hope that they may prove interesting,—to say nothing of elevating and instructive—to the English-speaking portions of the human race throughout the world.

The Big Otter

Category: Author:Robert Michael Ballantyne 

 My friend Lumley was particularly fond of warmth and of physical ease, yet he often expressed the opinion, with much emphasis, that there was nothing he enjoyed so much as a night in a snow-bed. Jack Lumley was my chum—a fine manly fellow with a vigorous will, a hardy frame, and a kindly heart. We had a natural leaning towa...

Gallantry Vizain des fetes galantes

Category: Author:novel 

 These paragraphs, dignified by the revised edition of Gallantry and spuriously designated An Introduction, are nothing more than a series of notes and haphazard discoveries in preparation of a thesis. That thesis, if it is ever written, will bear a title something academically like The Psychogenesis of a Poet; or Cabell the Masqu...
