Sometimes in the morning, when it was absorbed by a solitary task, just busy picking mushrooms or raspberries, or sewing, or reading a book of philosophy that bothered him, but he had to cultivate for himself, or read with interest the letter and ashamed of the heart or a women's weekly horoscope, she got suddenly whispered tenderly two words, without meaning to, without thinking of him.

What To Do The First Day Of Retirement

The Haunted Tea-Cosy @ Edward Gorey


Edmund Gravel, a misanthropic old bachelor, is preparing to celebrate one as usual this Christmas Eve, while sipping a cup of tea and a slice of pudding very stale (" from The Last One He Had Received More than a decade ago" ), when the tea-cozy very useful to keep the tea warm for hours s' escaped a strange creature: (click to enlarge)


"I am the Bahhum bug"! and I'm here to help you discover "The Interest of didacticism !
(roughly the interest that one has to look around, it's so informative, is not it, especially on Christmas Eve!)
Thereupon a second character to -like spectrum knocking.
"I'll show you particularly touching scene."
As we at Edward Gorey is not it, do not expect sweet ...
Orphans, abandoned dogs, paintings flew, strange strange ...


spectrum takes them in thought or a flying carpet all over the village where astounding scenes, not really endearing unfold before their eyes (Alma Crumble broke his wrist while kneading the dough vigorously pudding, for example!).
Enough, Will heinous in character, it directs the chafer tea cozy. Comes another spectrum, which promises this time quite scary scenes ... Of course, from bad to worse ...
Appears at once the vision of a kidnapped by Alfreda Crumble Gypsies, while in the cemetery were dug up a coffin in a freshly dug grave containing very mysterious old newspapers ....


Enough, enough! Another spectrum appears, "this time I'll make you see the scene at heartbreaking."
better and better, as you note.

" To the house opposite Fido WAS Returned From The taxidermist and Set Down by the fireplace. "

It does not take over our old misanthrope to start , terrified, into writing a small stack of invitations ... Like what, the effect did not wait ..
The Fall of the story? Gorey's pure, of course!

In fact the subtitle of the story was:
A dispirited and distasteful diversion for Christmas.
If you would have doubted:)
After all these emotions, I do not know about you, but I'd rather have a cup of tea ...

How Much Are Tshirts In Singapore

Days toxic Roxana Robinson

Julia Lamberts, Professor of Art New York artist in his own right, receives her parents for a few days in the old homestead in Maine she has patched up with her ex husband and she keeps carefully as the receptacle of all the years, the fortunate ones childhood of his son, they also lost her wedding .... I must say it is struggling to rebuild her life, Julia ... And his father, a brilliant neurosurgeon retired, older now, it does not facilitate the task, always cynical, hard and quick to blame more or less hidden. But they are there now, and will do everything to make them enjoyable few days of vacation despite the tension that already installed. Rapid chain of events and not for the better ... His eldest son come around without warning, strange ... to teach him, by ellipses, as Jack, the youngest, shoots himself to heroin ... All
collapses.
Atmosphere camera family where tensions are exacerbated when the unspoken explode have been suppressed for so long. All will have to speak or learn to do to try to save Jack, family therapy is taking place, in spite of themselves. Roxana Robinson excels
to stage what could be a tragedy theatrical - almost unity of place, time and action, including some violent flashback on the descents into hell Jack. But more so I deeply etched in this novel bitter and hard, it is the reflection on the body, its importance and forfeiture which runs throughout the narrative as the weft of the carpet ... The body as a "presence" on the other, the vector itself to be more than just a receptacle.
" How is it, she thought, that when someone sees all the thoughts and emotions of the disembodied person in this aggregate figure, this presence? How the body manages Is it contain all the density be? "The body just
which inevitably deteriorates as a result of old age, disease or drugs ... The body which blunted not only changes our relationship to others, but also same perception we have of themselves and each other ...
Old age that carries all, while it sacked the body, like the tide erodes and wears down to the bone, before withdraw.
" Those persons no longer existed. His father was now barely able to walk, his mother struggled painfully to follow the conversation. His parents were being adrift, engaged in a losing battle against their bodies and minds. the tide went out. "

And drugs, drugs that changes things from the point of not being able to recognize them ... The drug, such as old age, in short, but accelerated.

A very novel and exciting, uncompromising and decidedly not cure your blues to soul ...

Shrines @ @ ardent Katherine Mosby

When Willard Daniels Winsville reinvests his property in Virginia, who is married longer, the little town no longer has eyes only for this couple strangely alien-like.
must say that Vienna, the young bride, stands out in this provincial middle and narrow. Very quickly, it is available, we pin and is jealous ... Is not this "blue Lower New York who had two years of college behind her and stripped from Paris, who could play the piano and spoke foreign languages, who had blond hair and a woman Cleanroom, shoes and gloves for different times of the day, a marble bust of Quintilian and four trunks full of books - more than in the rest of Winsville. . "Just think, a rare bird that does not condescend to stay for tea and flies away at every opportunity ...
Willard and Vienna had two children before the master of the house from escaping in turn, leaving her alone with the whole field to manage ...
Far from "falling into line", now fled Vienna contact with micro Winsville company, exclusively engaged since his long poem (" supposed to imitate an epic Virgil by the structure, the magnitude Dante and Pope at the bottom, it announced ambitious timidly but ironically "), education of his children, or culture of its trees ... All without a academic ounce.
" In this way, it had reached a singular equilibrium, in which the brain and the secular intertwined physically and spiritually as the crossed arms carved fruit trees. It was modeled on the trees she knew and loved, and imitated the genius of nature that allowed them to be firmly anchored into the ground by the force of gravity, while crowning the sky, embracing at the same time the earth and the heavens. "
Willa and Elliot, children, growing up between readings in Latin and walks through the acres of property, hyper little savages cultivated and heightened sensitivity.
But what about a mother who places books more than any top and certainly well beyond religion:
" Promise me that you read them, he had muttered Vienna one day, raising his hand to show the rows of volumes which lined his office. They can save you. "
Trees, books, and a look at times, mad ... mad with grief, in fact, life definitely it does not make her gift ... But
mad, the term is dropped and more than once. Mad for 'different', the drama is there and the misfortunes that follow. How can we be different in a world so small, so full of prejudice without going crazy for the house. The house and gardens as a whole. This woman can fix the harelip another forward, while others look away in disgust ...
This long look, indecent to others, will forever mark, one that we deal with cripple
" To act as a stranger, I think must be someone special. So remember, being different does not make you someone special, but being special someone makes you different . "
The rest of the book is in the light of this sentence, between humanism , exuberance and pride to remain one while you are at the bottom of self in the most complete extravagance, a good kick to the conventions of diehard.
And in the foreground, of course, childhood personified by Willa and Elliot, two young fanatics in the image of their mother, eccentric and deeply endearing.
" You see her little hands? She asks, Buba. This means that there must be a God even if the bees die when they pray! "exclaimed Elliot, ignited ...

Exciting, touching, moving, dramatic, you will not soon forget Vienna, Willa, still less the little Elliot, the last page of the book tour.
Ardent, yes, the good term ... As for Sanctuary, you'll see why ...

" The important thing here, now. Paradise is the Chopin nocturne you just play the piano, these are the fields and trees that have heard. This is not the future that you have to whisper, but the present. "

The brown:" A color so melancholy, like the back of a sparrow: it is the perfect color of regret. "

Should I Wear My Hair Down In A Sweater Dress

The many lives of Frankenstein @ Andre-Francois Ruaud

Frankenstein or the creature seamed stole the name, the star and immortality to its creator, Dr. Victor Frankenstein, now forgotten ...
monster without a name, never named, yet it ends in the collective imagination by endorsing the surname of his "father" cursed, robbing him at once his name and his life.
And yet, without Victor, no creature, the irony .... It was time to make justice and finally emerge from the shadows where they were buried deep life and destiny of those who gave birth to one of the most famous monsters of our history, one that the image God gave life from nothing.
For Victor Frankenstein did exist, of course, like his monster elsewhere. They made that cross, God be praised for posterity, destiny a small splinter group also well known, the clan of Shelley, Byron and Polidori.
So get ready to know all or most of the birth of Victor through the creation of the monster to Frankenstein's tragic end in the middle of the polar ice ... What about the monster, the eternal, the legends about him succeed, but it could well have survived.
double game, con game, a huge game anyway and forth and death between Victor and his monster like an incessant play of mirrors, one chasing the other, before the roles are s' reverse. But how Mary Shelley said she would witness a beautiful day while she was staying in the now famous Villa Diodati become? The answer and assumptions (supported) between these pages devilishly exciting the pen of Andrew Francis advised Ruaud ...

Accurate, documented, illustrated, these " Many Lives of Frankenstein " devour in one go and make you want to dive back illico between the pages of Mary Shelley, whose life was also surprising that a novel (which modernity, what misfortunes cascades also ...).
short, a real treat!

Note, The many lives Frankenstein is the eighth volume of The Library Red of Electric Sheep . Collection a bit special and how gratifying as it proposes to us to discover or rediscover the great figures of popular literature in the form of biographies, exactly, yes, as if these characters had actually existed ...
Delighted by this discovery (I actually eyeing for some time this collection), I just got The many lives of Miss Marple Baudou of Jacques, I could not escape it!)





A big thank you to Critical Mass Babelio for this beautiful and monstrous discovery!

Carving Foam Large Blocks

We must believe in And a smile


" You know, sometimes when you laugh, it sounds like you cry "

Camille smiled as he said that, a casual air, aimlessly accurate. Lola does not know what to do: net stop his laughter, his smile hangs hesitant. Gosh, he guessed, pesta internally Lola. I'm so transparent that? It is true that it will not, at this moment, especially with George. It is remote. And even when he is there by Lola, it is absent, he said nothing. It looks like a puppet. A scarecrow with a false heart, a heart that beats setbacks.

Camille and Lola met last year. She remembers it like it was yesterday, it was the first day of school: Camille Lola had rushed down a hallway of the university, apologized then presented, and since then, they were inseparable.
He told her pretty things, she made him laugh. His skin was soft and he smelled of peppermint. His hands were hot as a bread from the oven, but her laughter was chilled to the heart. A blow hot, blow cold one. Sometimes she just wanted him to be silent the rest of the time, does not see or hear it hurt too much to Lola. She wanted to shake him by the shoulders, telling him to stop being so good and beautiful, to be as wild and unstable. Anyway, it would not have taken seriously. He did not take seriously. She quickly began to tremble, to think about him all the time, for a song, a smell, a phrase she had read it somewhere. And when she realized it, she blamed herself terribly. It was a disrespect! A banging against the walls. She could hate in those moments. Think of it, while George is there any cons it! so close he could hear another boy love him ...


" It does not show too much, I hope? From the outside, I mean ... "
" No, do not worry, I'm the only "

Camille, the only one who can read Lola as an open book ... They continue to talk, to laugh. The tram arrives sliding along the sidewalk. It is time, time to say goodbye. Lola sighed softly, thinking of the night ahead. Camille takes the hand of Lola, the greenhouse slowly and his eyes are awfully tired. Lola gets on the tram, a bit dazed. They follow the gaze while the tram restarts.
But George stands behind Lola, he wanted to surprise him and wait at the station. He saw everything without understanding. After a few minutes, Lola turns around and looks at: the tears stream down his cheeks reddened and her makeup was a little cast. And thin.

He knows .

Sophie still smoked. It has all the pupils dilated. They devour the room, you can not see it.
Earlier, she was crouched in a bathroom on the floor in shades of blue, and swore it was the last time. The last time she smoked? Or the last time she thought of Paul? She watched the rise and scrolls lick the ceiling. It made her think of him, again. And she caught herself thinking about him just by watching this. Smoke. What's the fucking report? Ah yes. Paul is vanishing . It is there when he wants, every other day, when it takes him, when he wants to be told pretty things. And there she is, she waits. It the awaits. The Misfortunes of Sophie, you talk.

Then she pulled herself together and tried to think of something else. She looked straight ahead. Under the sink, He ran a huge mess. An old box cakes from Brittany, a candle, a curling iron, medicines. She saw her reflection in the pipes. A huge head with a tiny body. "Welcome to the world of Sophie" she hissed between his teeth. Throat full of smoke, she resolved to read the user manual for a shampoo that was lying. For hair dull and flat, Cien haircare, fruit acid . Bingo, she did not think Paul for the space of a minute. It should have read slower.

She said she felt like crying, just like that. But she never succeeded crying while smoking. God knows why. And then she did not want the evening ends, to go to bed alone and cold in his sheets. Not sleepy. Never again, never sleep. never sleep without him .

It was relative: it was his birthday. You go out there, Soph. It's not every day you turn nineteen years. Then she went out the door creaked behind her. With it, the ashtray.

And a smile.

A pound of flesh





For my birthday, my mother gave me a pocket watch, she knows that I like antiques. It is a mechanism skeleton, we see all the cogs turning and the keys move. The second hand does not jump jerkily, she slips on the dial, as free. I wore it to my ear. I always hated ticking watches. But his ticking to it, it's magic, light and fluid ... I have already readjusted several times an hour. The mechanism is fragile. On the manual, it says that we should not turn too strong as possible.

Vella, transparent and sensitive. Look no. The pocket watch is me.

Invisible While Facebook

separate living and dead






"How do you do to cope? "You asked me this once. At first, I did not know what to say - indeed I was not even aware that I could take, I was there, that's all. At first I thought I had just managed to be a little more courageous. But ultimately it was not a question of bravery, when I think. I let myself be walked on, I'm lying on the floor of the bathroom, quintals of tissues in each fist, and I let time pass. I looked without seeing the tiny grains of sand falling over each other in the hourglass. I saw that I was getting older when the leaves began to redden and the trees were bare. In my room it smelled of sugar. My whole house smelled of sugar. Even today it m'abrutit, it intoxicates me. But I know now what I did to cope. I thought all these little things, all these little nothings . So small before they slipped to avoid being seen, not felt. Surprise a beautiful boy who surreptitiously watching you, drink hot chocolate with friends, or hot tea while reading a good book to roll in the grass, eat something too fatty or too spicy, but having tasted, have felt all the aromas and secrets, read a beautiful love letter (and even non -love); cry in front of a turnip U.S.; cry in front of an onion being peeled, crying tears of joy taste water sea, leaving the hairdresser with a large smile and open a big beautiful wrapping the day of his birthday, give up everything and do it properly tear (and blow out the candles too, it feels good) to pass a line of eyeliner impeccable go to the cellar for some wine and stay white little longer to feel the clean laundry that comes out of the machine; afford a new bag and want them because the closet is already overflowing, buy vinyl and attend the ceremony of turntables, the thirty dance-three towers squeezed tight against the diamond whistling response (hello doll, you sing well) make love to a boy who smells like hot sand, as in the song, watch his sisters and be happy to realize that they like, loving someone, hate someone and love it.

And feel loved, supported, like you worry, there. I like your head when you're sad, it's human?
