The Philosophy of Horror: Or, Paradoxes of the HeartThe Philosophy of Horror: Or, Paradoxes of the Heart

Noel Carroll, film scholar and philosopher, offers the first serious look at the aesthetics of horror. In this book he discusses the nature and narrative structures of the genre, dealing with horror as a "transmedia" phenomenon. A fan and serious student of the horror genre, Carroll brings to bear his comprehensive knowledge of obscure and forgotten works, as well as of the horror masterpieces.

The Shadow of the WindThe Shadow of the Wind

The time is the 1950s; the place, Barcelona. Daniel Sempere, the son of a widowed bookstore owner, is 10 when he discovers a novel, The Shadow of the Wind, by Julián Carax. The novel is rare, the author obscure, and rumors tell of a horribly disfigured man who has been burning every copy he can find of Carax's novels.

Jude the Obscure (Penguin Readers Level 5)Jude the Obscure is the last Thomas Hardy's important novel. Jude the Obscure created storms of scandal and protest for the author upon its publication. Hardy, disgusted and disappointed, devoted the remainder of his life to poetry and never wrote another novel.
Jude Fawley and Sue Bridehead have both had unhappy first marriages. Then they fall in love. This is the story of their love, and the way their past returns, bringing them hope, then sadness.
