Her shoe print remains in the aging cement, some forty years after what turned out to be our goodbye kiss. I see it every day on the walk I take with my Cairn Terrier, Tobin. A crisp fall New England afternoon was the last time I, or anyone else, saw Navy Nurse Lieutenant Kathleen Springer. It was against military regulations for us to be carrying on a romantic relationship, she being a Naval officer and I an enlisted hospital corpsman, but that didn't prevent us from entering into a brief but profound affair. We stepped over that invisible line, and we paid a price. I think about it to this day and I would give anything to step with her over that line again.
If the Garfish Don’t Bite by Alice Lunsford Mary Alice struggles to navigate the world of adults around her. Although she lives in a town plagued by the KKK, she doesn’t understand how there can be so much hatred in a person’s heart. Surrounded by racial injustice, Mary Alice tries to make sense of it all and find her spot in a place run by adults who all seem to know more than she does. While working on those mysteries, she also struggles to shed light in a few dark corners of her own personal life. However, as she grows up life seems to get more complicated. Secrets slowly began to reveal themselves, and Mary Alice must confront the underlying bigotry and violence that exists in her own hometown.
Classic horror films such as Dracula, Frankenstein and The Picture of Dorian Gray are based on famous novels. Less well known--even to avid horror fans--are the many other memorable films based on literary works. Beginning in the silent era and continuing to the present, numerous horror films found their inspiration in novels, novellas, short stories and poems, though many of these written works are long forgotten. This book examines 43 works of literature--from the famous to the obscure--that provided the basis for 62 horror films. Both the written works and the films are analyzed critically, with an emphasis on the symbiosis between the two. Background on the authors and their writings is provided.
