Описание: A lot of us like to describe ourselves as outdoorsy types and nature lovers-but what do phrases like that actually signify? In Algernon Blackwood's The Man Whom the Trees Loved, the writer known for his grasp on the weird and uncanny explores what it really means to love nature-and the bizarre things that can happen when nature loves us back.

Описание: Newly recruited Scotland Yard detective Gabriel Syme infiltrates a dangerous underworld anarchist group with the help of a poet he befriends, named Lucian Gregory. The taut adventure that ensues is part spy narrative, part dystopian novel and part Christian allegory. Chesterton's unconventional masterpiece has been described as ""one of the hidden hinges of twentieth-century writing, the place where, before our eyes, the nonsense-fantastical tradition of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear pivots and becomes the nightmare-fantastical tradition of Kafka and Borges.""

Описание: Two friends are midway on a canoe trip down the River Danube. Throughout the story, Blackwood personifies the surrounding environment -river, sun, wind- with powerful and ultimately threatening characteristics. Most ominous are the masses of dense, desultory, menacing willows, which "moved of their own will as though alive, and they touched, by some incalculable method, my own keen sense of the horrible."Shortly after landing their canoe for the evening on a sandy island near Bratislava in the Dunajsk luhy Protected Landscape Area of Austria-Hungary, 2] the narrator reflects on the river's potency, human qualities, and his own will: Sleepy at first, but later developing violent desires as it became conscious of its deep soul, it rolled, like some huge fluid being, through all the countries we had passed, holding our little craft on its mighty shoulders, playing roughly with us sometimes, yet always friendly and well-meaning, till at length we had come inevitably to regard it as a Great Personage.Blackwood also specifically characterizes the silvery, windblown willows as sinister: And, apart quite from the elements, the willows connected themselves subtly with my malaise, attacking the mind insidiously somehow by reason of their vast numbers, and contriving in some way or other to represent to the imagination a new and mighty power, a power, moreover, not altogether friendly to us.

Описание: Twins may be similar in outward appearance and share genetic material, but the paths they take in life are often markedly divergent. That's certainly the case in Algernon Blackwood's The Garden of Survival, in which two twin brothers' adventures take them to opposite ends of the earth-though their special bond remains intact.
