Story
Il primo romanzo di uno degli autori più importanti della letteratura mondiale. Pubblicato nel 1877 su una rivista londinese, il testo è stato riscoperto solo nel 1982 grazie a una lettera ritrovata nell'università di Yale che ne attesta la paternità dello scrittore scozzese. Come molte opere prime, "Una vecchia canzone" presenta una buona dose delle tematiche che, seppur non del tutto sviluppate, caratterizzano le opere più mature di Stevenson.

Story
"Omoo" è il secondo romanzo di Melville; è un libro pieno di umorismo, ma anche una favola allegorica sull'incontro e lo scontro fra la civiltà e il mondo incantato delle isole polinesiane. Racconta di una baleniera sgangherata comandata da un capitano incapace, di una ciurma di personaggi squinternati, di ammutinamenti, incarcerazioni, incontri, amicizie e battibecchi con isolani e missionari di ogni genere. Sullo sfondo, la vita di bianchi e indigeni nei Mari del Sud.

Story
Launceston, 1665. Il Reverendo Ruddle, dopo aver pronunciato un toccante sermone al funerale del giovane John Elliot, è invitato da un nobiluomo a risolvere le turbe psichiche del figlio, convinto di essere perseguitato da una donna defunta. Inizialmente scettico, l'uomo dovrà poi ricredersi, di fronte alla visione, fatta in prima persona, del fantasma di Dorothy Dingle... Daniel Defoe, pur non considerandosi un credulone, riporta la storia così comi gli è stata raccontata, proponendo anche delle spiegazioni razionali.

Daniel Defoe ha collaborato per anni alla rivista Mist’s Weekly Journal, di cui abbiamo qui il privilegio di leggere alcuni estratti. Da sempre curioso verso l'occulto, l'autore propone, attraverso i suoi articoli, una serie di rocambolesche vicende che hanno per protagonisti degli autentici truffatori, volti a sfruttare l'autosuggestione a proprio vantaggio.

Pubblicato sotto forma di libello, nel 1727, "The Friendly Daemon, Or, the Generous Apparition" riporta lo scambio epistolare fra Duncan Campbell - guarito dall'epilessia per il fortuito intervento di un angelo custode - e il suo medico, a cui viene chiesto un parere professionale su quanto avvenuto. L'uomo, esortato a dire la propria, finirà col raccontare altri eventi simili, esibendosi poi in un’erudita disamina di tutte le tecniche più strane utilizzate per guarire dai mali peggiori.

Story
Questo breve racconto, pubblicato originariamente in "The History And Reality Of Apparitions" (1727), trasmette la memoria di un fatto inquietante, avvenuto ai tempi della Prima Rivoluzione Inglese (1642-1651). Protagonista della vicenda sarebbe stato il celebre bandito James Hind, artefice di molte rapine nello Huntingdonshire. Nel tentativo di rapinare quello che all’apparenza sembrerebbe un mite allevatore di campagna, Hind si ritrova infatti di fronte ad una figura infernale, che sembrerebbe preannunciargli la sua imminente morte.

Story
Agli inizi del ‘700 Daniel Defoe dedica molto tempo alle indagini critiche sull’'cculto, rivelando un grande allineamento con lo spirito dei suoi tempi. Nei presenti racconti, l'autore dismette le vesti di romanziere e, ricorrendo al metodo deduttivo tipico del giornalismo, tenta di ricostruire quanto di vero si celi alla base di vari aneddoti su fantasmi, entità demoniache ed angeli.

"Resoconto dell’apparizione della signora Veal", originariamente pubblicato come pamphlet anonimo nel 1706, è tradizionalmente attribuito a Daniel Defoe, che all'epoca era impegnato nella stesura di vari articoli, spesso a tema spiritista. La storia narrata - secondo alcuni ispirata ad un evento vissuto dallo stesso Defoe - prende le mosse dall'incontro fra due amiche di lunga data, la signora Bargrave e la signora Veal.

In questo brevissimo racconto, col ritmo estremamente incalzante di un dialogo diretto, Daniel Defoe mette in luce - non senza ironia - le contraddizioni alla base di simili resoconti, anticipando di ben due secoli e mezzo la moderna "psicologia dell’insolito".

In questo brevissimo resoconto Daniel Defoe fa luce su un caso misterioso, avvenuto nella parrocchia di St. Benet Fynk agli inizi del Settecento. Per non rovinare la lettura a chiunque si accinga ad immergersi nell’inquietante cronaca, è sufficiente citare gli ingredienti perfetti per questa storia del brivido: un apparente suicidio, l'inspiegabile comparsa di una persona dai contorni indefinibili e la presenza di ben due testimoni.

Risale al 1842, infatti, la nascita della prima sezione investigativa della London's Metropolitan Police. In questo scenario, di fronte ai rischi della vita notturna, Dickens ha iniziato ad interessarsi alla vita degli agenti, stringendo amicizia con molti personaggi attivi nel settore.

Story
Nel 1851 Charles Dickens accompagna il detective Charles Frederick Field (1805-1874) in una nottata a giro per i sobborghi londinesi. Il racconto che ne scaturisce - pubblicato sotto forma di articolo sulla rivista Household Words - è l'acuta ricostruzione dello squallore notturno di una grande metropoli. Avventurandosi fra taverne malfamate, vicoli bui e quartieri in mano alla malavita, Dickens, Field e i loro uomini toccano con mano i pericoli che si celano nelle periferie vittoriane, offrendo a chi legge l'opportunità di rivivere un'epoca remota, ma non per questo morta e sepolta.

Integrando la propria indole di romanziere col senso critico del giornalista, Dickens offre a chi legge l'affresco vivido di una Londra oscura e malfamata, abitata da malviventi ma anche da coraggiosi detective.

Non tutti sanno che Charles Dickens è stato uno dei primi reporter di cronaca nera: fra il 1850 e il 1867, sulle pagine di Household Words e All the Year Round (le riviste da lui dirette) ha infatti firmato molti articoli incentrati sul crimine e sulla neonata figura del detective. Nel presente contributo - che ci illumina sulla percezione che un uomo del tempo poteva avere, rispetto ai fenomeni criminali - Dickens illustra il caso di due noti malviventi, mettendoli a confronto con grande scrupolo critico e anticipando molti temi chiave della successiva criminologia.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
