Brand-new, unread book, shipped directly from the publisher. hild of the Dawn is a fast-paced almost cinematic tale of occult conspiracy and adventure with Aleister Crowley, his followers and The Stelé of Revealing very much at the centre of a wild and entertaining yarn. Ron s life-long interest in the Occult combined with his undisputed literary talent ensure a thrilling and immersive read. Readers who have already had the pleasure of an early preview, like our friend Mark Valentine and Rosemary Pardoe (of Ghosts and Scholars), agree that Ron s novel has all the hallmarks of deep learning, vivid prose and an enthralling plotting. There are very few modern, intelligent novels written on occult themes authored by a master of the genre. In Child of The Dawn we have a heady combination of a fast-paced adventure narrative, a tale of ritual magic and a chilling glimpse into the horrifying fantasy world evoked by the opium dreams of Poe and De Quincey. The inspiration for the novel is Aleister Crowley s account of receiving a trance message from a demonic spirit, which led him to write The Book of The Law . One of the instructions given to Crowley was that he should steal a certain magical plaque, the Stelé of Revealing, from Cairo Museum, and set it up in its proper place in an act which would promote the advent of A New Age . Rosemary Pardoe, an expert on M. R. James and editor of Ghost and Scholars, describes the novel as a real page-turner, setting a fast pace and that it is full of the details of occult practice. Her summary was Indiana Jones meets H.P. Lovecraft and that the novel would make a great action film script. Mark Valentine, author of many great stories and biographer of Arthur Machen, has also read the manuscript and says that it has all the hallmarks of deep learning, vivid prose and an enthralling plotting. Mark commented that he was sure the novel would be very well received, by a wide range of readers.

Providence had not given him a pretty face, nor a witty turn of phrase. He went about his business calmly, with no fuss, with a quiet determination common to those who have learnt to expect neither support nor approval from the outside world. Nobody cared about Barnaby Jones. Barnaby left school with reasonable grades. He took up work at the local post office, sorting other people s mail. He looked in wonder at the colourful postcards from far-away places. Barnaby never got any mail of his own." Fascinating drawings by Reggie Oliver!

Only Britain s most audaciously controversial poet, Jeremy Reed, rightly called by the Independent British poetry s glam, spangly, shape-shifting answer to David Bowie would have dared to conceive a book of electrifying essays focusing on Oscar Wilde as a punter picking up rent boys at Piccadilly Circus, the conspiratorial underworld ethos of London's gay demimonde in the 1890s inhabited by Wilde and the notorious Count Eric Stenbock, and linking the patronage of older men acquired primarily by outstanding looks to both Bosie's relations with Wilde, and to the young David Bowie's managerial sponsorship by Ken Pitt. Analogies between Wilde and Bowie are further extended by Oh, You Pretty Things , a consummately detailed essay on how both Wilde and Bowie conducted their first US tours, largely in drag.

Softcover. Condición: Neu. Ohne Schutzumschlag. 1. Auflage. Brand-new, unread book, shipped directly from the publisher. The book consists of a 'quartet of quartets' on the theme of the formal garden as metaphor for human civilisation. Each quartet is written by a different writer, who explores the same theme in their own way. By adopting a four-part structure authored by four different writers, the book echoes the design of a parterre or 'charbagh' garden, becoming a geometric literary expression of the inter-relationship between nature and humanity. Lost Eden addresses the challenges the human creature faces in governing itself and its underlying animal nature in relation to what Immanuel Kant meant by "the starry sky above me and the moral law within". The metaphor of a 'remembered' time when humans lived in harmony with nature is shared by most religions and creation-myths the world over. The specific concept of 'Eden' is common to the three major monotheistic religions, Judaism, Islam and Christianity, in the sense of a lost green idyll bisected by four rivers including the Euphrates and the Tigris. In our current environmental emergency, the practical challenges and changes humanity now face are widely acknowledged. As writers we also consider the philosophical and cultural questions of how our species should relate to our planet in our thoughts and actions. A long history, culminating in the nineteenth century industrial age, set humanity on a path of conflict with nature. We now inhabit a zeitgeist predicated on endless economic 'growth' and accumulation of capital which is rapidly leading us to an environmental tipping point. In Lost Eden four contemporary British writers use the medium of fiction to consider how the children of Adam and Eve have failed, but may yet succeed again, in their potential role as guardians and keepers of the Earth.

Nick was awarded the grand prix of the prestigious "Triennial of Self-taught Visionary Art" at Belgrade in February of this year. This book is effectively the first career-spanning retrospective publication many fans of his have been asking for. We believe that Blinko's art perfectly gels with the Zagava aesthetic and it has been a joy and a privilege to work on this particular publication, we believe that Zagava reader's who might not be aware of Nick's sleeve art for his own band Rudimentary Peni or his one-off art for Coil, the Lovecraft volume he has illustrated or the two previous volumes David Tibet has published under his Coptic Cat imprint, will find much to enjoy in this book. Each of Nick's creations is like a weird novella in itself, you can at least spend as much time exploring the endlessly detailed work as you would spend on reading and decoding an Aickman strange story. We are conceptualising an very limited and outrageous special portfolio edition, details tbc. We are certain you will love this book and Nick's art.

Clark is a poet of the occult who evokes that strange region of the imagination where dread and wonder intersect. A writer and artist with genuine vision, to whom the surreal is second nature. One of my most exciting discoveries in contemporary supernatural fiction. - Adam Nevill, author of The Ritual and Apartment 16. "When the eminent therapist Dr Rudkin reached the Colony institute he did not expect to find another world waiting for him, nor did he imagine that a patient there could be its creator and his guide in that dreamt paradise; a man who also claimed to be the dead poet Gerard de Nerval. After Nerval declares that he has met Dr Rudkin's late wife in that other world, promising to reunite them, a strange pact is made as ancient masters watch in the wings. Rudkin in turn believes he can rid Nerval of his delusions and rescue the real man lost in an invented land. Together they salvage memories of Nerval's imagined journey in the form of a sacred book. Yet as they map his hidden world an enemy rises to end their dreams. Somewhere between Carrol's Alice in Wonderland and Swift's Gulliver's Travels, edging Hodgson's House on the Borderland and Kubin's The Other Side, The Feathered Bough is a profusely illustrated novella of the occult and the grotesque; a grimoire and hallucinatory field guide to a fallen realm that might have been.".

It quickly became apparent however that this was not to be. With no plot, characters or successive imagery, such components and the like meant gradually evolving pictures and occasional text revealing instead recurring themes and techniques occurring at quite often several pages apart. Messages can be in patterns, or formally, in that each drawing has its own border for example reiterating previous subjects, a page may emerge drawn without memory of the one before, or drawn to contradict even to create dichotomy, dismantle poetry. Later to rebuild meaning. I should like to cover the whole universe in drawing, but it's already been done" Nick Blinko 2011.

We have all read Aesop's fables many, many years ago, but did you do so recently? My friend, the incomparable Baby Dee did and found especially their morals to be just a bit on the dusty side. What if these universally loved fables would have been written today, what would their moral be nowadays, would they even have a moral? An idea was born and when Dee approached me with the idea to ask a wild bunch of guys and gurls to revisite and revise Aesop. A truly outrageous variety of people loved the idea and so a very unusual book took shape. The list of contributors, be it with a new fable or a visualization is truly extraordinary and eclectic, some are old friends of Zagava some are brand new favourites of ours (and yours, too, I bet!): Little Annie, Valeria Bianchi, Aurora Buzzetti, Giulia de Canio, Quentin S.

In 1910 the pioneering photographer Charles Grey is assigned by a philanthropic trust to document the slums of Glasgow. While exploring the city, Grey chances upon strange paintings in the alleys. Intrigued he soon discovers that the artist is not quite what he expected: a young man called Fetch, destitute since being discharged from an institution, and adopted as a visionary guide by the spiritualist circle that shelters him. While Grey takes the vulnerable artist under his wing, a peculiar turn transpires as Fetch becomes Grey's unlikely mentor, promising to reveal the hidden world that he's mapped in his paintings on the city's back streets. As they embark upon their quest together, reports of missing children circulate, as do rumours of the emergence of a strange clairvoyant known only as the Infanta. The spiritualist circle soon charges Fetch with the task of investigating the source of this mystery, yet can his visions be trusted or are they evidence of incipient madness? As Grey helps Fetch search for answers other hidden forces rise against them. The Mirror Remembers is a richly illustrated novel, a supernatural mystery that can be read in isolation or as a prelude to the novels In Delirium's Circle and The Feathered Bough, as part of the resonant cycle of stories involving the artist-seer William Fetch.

Set amongst the fogbound and beleaguered streets of post-war Newcastle Upon Tyne, In Delirium's Circle recounts the obscure fate of visionary artist William Fetch in his pursuit of the truth behind a secret society and the nebulous masters to whom they are enthralled. Fetch sees in these shadowy individuals perhaps his final chance to know the hidden worlds he has devoted his life to discovering. But are the choices he is making really his own?

On one level, it aims to exhibit various manifestations of Satanic practice because, quite simply, the latter's representation in the horror genre offers a perverse but delectable pleasure; the liminality of horror always entails an element of fun. And yet the collection is also devoted to perpetrating a kind of violence against those evils that are distinctly unpleasant, specifically the Luciferian nature of religious and political fundamentalisms, abominations of conscience. Hence Malingerer's alignment with the aesthetic diabolism of Lovecraft's powerful oeuvre, among those of other esteemed writers and thinkers, while it carefully critiques and collapses the convoluted bigotry that, for better and most certainly for worse, found such sublime, unholy expression in the picturesque city of Providence.".

"In This Glass House" locates a tense, aesthetic space between Shirley Jackson and Don DeLillo in its examination of fascism and the interiority through which malignant forces exert domination. Olivia Sutton becomes embroiled in the compromised leadership of a problematic man, and thus in a world of barely concealed diabolism. Though modernity is forever encroaching upon the fortress of her upward mobility, she is haunted, and hunted, by one whose form is legion. "In This Glass House" interrogates the lived life among shadows, phantasms that would inhabit and command a self in the throes of its flourishing unholiness.".

"Like a gatefold album that reveals itself through striking images, text, screaming refrains, the stories of And the Darkness Back Again"build and overlap. They strike a musical balance between chilling, phantasmagoric treatments of human relations and deadly foibles and the stark language of a 21st century nouveau roman. The collection is also a celebration of the genre that, for many, fascinates from a young age and never quite lets go. What Phillips has called elsewhere "critical horror" is displayed in these thirteen stories to affect tensely atmospheric, occasionally grisly paeans to the magical fears of childhood that become grim way stations in the adult's journey toward fulfillment and extinction.".

"He was once awakened by a woman s voice in the deepest hour of night. She asked, Are you cold? He was too inebriated by dream melt to register whether the voice was interior, a mere nocturnal hallucination, or spoken aloud by an intruder in his bedroom. But he was jostled enough to turn over onto his right side, away from the comfort of a solid wall and toward what felt chillingly like a voice touch. It seemed to him, oddly in that moment between coma and consciousness, that the question had nothing to do with care; rather, it was asserting, as people often do, I m cold, how about you? Do you mind cranking up the heat? Something about this tension impelled his eyes to open, haltingly, and there she was.".

Later Latin descendants (pun not fully intended!) of the word added the familiar 'r' we now recognize in constructions like 'necro-'. On the west coast of Italy was another, perhaps more famous nekuomanteion featured in the sixth book of Virgil's Aeneid. It was called Avernus. - Avalon Brantley.
