Shakespeare Anthology

Mysterious, giant cigarettes on the side of the road. Screams in the night that rouse strangers from personal nightmares. Mysterious encounters and hard fought battles that awaken self doubt and threaten annihilation. Horror comes in many forms. In this book, you’ll explore cosmic horror, body horror, existential horror, ghouls, ghosts, and unrelenting beasts. Have fun, feel fear, and be thankful you don’t live in any of the worlds represented. At least, not yet.

Because it defines human existence, love is one of art's favorite subjects. Timeless Love: Poems, Stories, and Letters celebrates the mysterious nature of love and passion by bringing together classic works by beloved writers through the ages. Including stories, poems, and letters from Shakespeare, Elizabeth Barret Browning, John Keats, Edith Wharton, and more, this collection explores how each love is singular - yet love itself is universal.

The world-class writers featured in this collection are adept at conjuring the depth of passion that surrounds all stories of love and loss. The short story form is perfect for capturing the uplift and dizzying heights that accompany a new object of affection, as well as the queasy unease and bottomless longing of lost loves.

Christmas brings out the best and the worst in us, as can been seen in this evocative anthology. Among what Thomas Love Peacock calls the "many poetical charms in the heraldings of Christmas," there are eulogies by saints and diatribes from curmudgeons. Here, Christmas is expounded by divines, sung by rustics, deplored by philosophers, made mystical in stories and summed up in a line by the poet Elizabeth Jennings: "The hush, the star, the baby, people being kind again."
