Charles Dickens & the Mid-Victorian Press, 1850-1870 - Hazel Mackenzie - Bog - Legend Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Charles Dickens effectively re-invented periodical literature in the nineteenth century, with his phenomenally popular serialised novels published in the weekly magazines ''Household Words'' and ''All the Year Round'' between 1850 and 1870. Already a world-famous author, Dickens was often the principal contributor of these periodicals, and with that position of power, he was able to direct the gaze of his readership. Through he platform, he was able to encourage public conversation around the issues that most concerned him: poverty, crime, education, public health, women, social welfare and reform. This is a collection of essays from Dickens Journals Online, edited by Hazel MacKenzie and Ben Winyard, exploring both the fiction and the journalism in ''Household Words'' and ''All the Year Round'', and how they impacted both society in general, and the the wider publishing world. Contributors include: - Laurel Brake - Koenraad Claes - Iain Crawford - Daragh Downes - John Drew - Judith Laura Foster - Holly Furneaux - Ignacio Ramas Gay - Clare Horrocks - Louis James - Patrick Leary - Hannah Lewis-Bill - Helen Mckenzie - Pete Orford - David Parker - David Paroissien - Robert L.

Fans of the genre will not be disappointed!’ TheJoyousLiving.com ‘Unforgettable, page turning… this crime novel should be on all our book shelves’ @bookandstitch ‘I thought Valley of Shadows was terrific’ The Book Lover’s Boudoir

Hard Times (Legend Classics) - Charles Dickens - Bog - Legend Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

“It is said that every life has its roses and thorns; there seemed, however, to have been a misadventure or mistake in Stephen’s case, whereby somebody else had become possessed of his roses, and he had become possessed of somebody else’s thorns in addition to his own.” Published originally in weekly instalments, Hard Times is focusing on Mr Gradgrind’s flawed model of upbringing and its lifelong impact on the wellbeing and destinies of his children. The novel, in fact, follows two opposing ways an individual can be formed. On the one hand, there is Tom and Louisa whose numerous misfortunes are predetermined by their father’s insistence on knowing bare facts without reaching for the substance. They are ill-equipped for the real world and, as a result, Louisa suffers emotionally having had a marriage of convenience, while Tom intentionally devises to incriminate another for his own misdeed. On the other hand, there is Mr Gradgrind’s student Sissy, whose guardian he becomes upon her father’s disappearance. Despite Mr Grandgrind’s scorn, she approaches things with a genuine sensibility that helps her to lead a happier and more fulfilled life. The readers are prompted to ponder throughout the novel whether Mr Gradgrind will eventually acknowledge his failure as a parent. Hard Times is an unusually short novel for Dickens and the only one not to feature London scenes. Instead, it is set in the North and beside addressing the issues of education, it also exposes the harsh daily living conditions of regular working-class people and the negative side of industrialisation. The author captures the zeitgeist of a new era where the old and new ways have to coexist and where many are continuously being left behind either by being deprived financially or spiritually. While maxims and cold facts are effective for scientific progress and the operations of complex machinery, they are not a prerequisite for human happiness. The volume’s solid subject matter is intertwined with the gripping elements of suspense that will undoubtedly appeal to a diverse audience.

The Visitors is bizarrely unsettling, yet compulsively readable'' Iain Reid ''Burns blurs the line between crime fiction and horror... Deliberate pacing, a claustrophobic setting, and vivid, wildly unsympathetic characters complement the twisted plot and grim conclusion'' Publishers Weekly ''An insightful study of loneliness and evil'' Daily Mail ''Must read'' New York Post ''Atmospheric, eerie and affecting. Catherine Burns has created a complex and chilling world in which nothing is as it seems. A very clever confident novel, beautifully plotted with multiple twists and turns. I couldn''t stop reading it'' Suellen Dainty ''Burns combines a study of a middle-aged woman, a tale of a highly dysfunctional family and slow burn of a mystery, creating a compelling read that''s at once highly entertaining and wholly disturbing ... A dark and thrilling debut novel: disturbing, gripping, and hugely impressive'' The Bookbag ''Burns combines a study of a middle-aged woman, a tale of a highly dysfunctional family and slow burn of a mystery, creating a compelling read that''s at once highly entertaining and wholly disturbing ... A dark and thrilling debut novel: disturbing, gripping, and hugely impressive'' TM Logan ''Absolutely loved it. I would advise any nail biters to sit on their hands while reading this book because they will chew right down to the knuckle. By far the creepiest novel I have read in a long time ... a highly original and intriguing mystery so compelling that I abandoned my own work to finish it'' Liz Nugent ''Compelling and wonderfully dark, choked with suspense and yet leisurely in the telling. I enjoyed it immensely'' Emma Curtis ''A dark exploration of evil in its many forms, this is an uncomfortable and disturbing yet utterly compelling read'' SJI Halliday ''A dark, compelling story with a few twists and turns that will keep the reader glued to the pages ... I found myself completely engrossed in Marion''s disturbing world, which was well drawn by Catherine Burns. A very strong debut'' Sarah Denzil ''An insidious, creepy novel, with a slow burn that leads to a horrifying revelation'' Literary Hub ''Beautifully written… [a] dark, gritty and inviting tale that explores the darker side of human nature'' Review Corner ''A wonderfully dark and suspenseful read from a talented debut author'' Damp Pebbles ''The writing, the characters and the mood of this book were absolutely superbly done'' BookBum ''A deeply disturbing and unforgettable novel, dripping with evil and horror… furiously gripping, addictive and absolutely impossible to put down'' The Book Babe

The Visitors - Catherine Burns - Bog - Legend Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Perfect for fans of Paula Hawkins and Ruth Ware. Can you escape the darkness within? Marion Zetland lives with her domineering older brother, John in a decaying Georgian townhouse on the edge of a northern seaside resort. A timid spinster in her fifties who still sleeps with teddy bears, Marion does her best to shut out the shocking secret that John keeps in the cellar. Until, suddenly, John has a heart attack and Marion is forced to go down to the cellar herself and face the gruesome truth that her brother has kept hidden. As questions are asked and secrets unravel, maybe John isn''t the only one with a dark side.
