The closest is Jacqueline Ess, which has a fantastic concept but is still full of male insistence a woman needs a man to be complete. There's a lot to love still - the body horror is beautiful - but it's held back a little by that. The other stories are enjoyable but it feels like none have the depth of the best stories in vol 1. (  ) tombomp | Oct 31, 2023 | En definitiva quiero seguir leyendo más del autor y, quizá, vuelva a leer con una mirada distinta el libro con el que me acerqué a Barker. ( ) uvejota | Jul 26, 2023 | 1) EL TREN DE LA CARNE DE MEDIANOCHE: La imágenes atroces percibidas, trasmiten el simbolismo y el lado más profundo de Barker. Una historia de apariencia sencilla pero donde la carne adquiere significados casi divinos. 2) EN LAS COLINAS, LAS CIUDADES: Entre la fantasÃa inexplicable y el terror indescriptible, uno de los mejores trabajos de imaginación de Clive Barker. Una historia cuyo demoledor apartado visual describe escenas y secuencias que superan cualquier sensación descrita en la lectura de un relato y lo eleva a la categorÃa de experiencia que se vive, se sufre y se adora. 3) SEXO, MUERTE Y BRILLO DE ESTRELLAS: Barker cambia sutilmente de registro, ofreciéndonos, en un aparente homenaje y amor al teatro, una historia que bien podrÃa representar el perfil de cuento gótico de terror más clásico, donde la vida y la muerte unen lazos en una representación que se torna bella sobre el escenario, pero macabra en las mentes de los espectadores. 4) TERROR: Explora la mente humana en busca de los lÃmites a los que puede ser expuesta al miedo antes de romperse. Una historia ficticia que invita a reflexionar ante un tema muy real expuesto por personajes vivos, creÃbles y altas dosis de terror psicológico. (  ) serxius | Aug 26, 2022 | In many of the stories, I didn't necessarily see the motivations for what the main characters ended up doing. It doesn't make the stories bad, but when finishing many of these stories, I felt like I hadn't gotten the full story, that I'd missed a chunk. Still, the story ideas themselves are phenomenal. I don't think anyone is Barker's equal when it comes to imagination. And these collections are essential to anyone wanting to see those first stabs at the themes that would become Barker's trademark in years to come.

EVERYBODY IS A BOOK OF BLOOD; WHEREVER WE'RE OPENED, WE'RE RED. â?? Clive BarkerFew authors can claim to have marked a genre so thoroughly and personally that their words have leaked into every aspect of modern pop culture. Clive Barker is such an author, and the Books of Blood marked his debut - his coming out to the world - in brilliant, unforgettable fashion. Crossroad Press is proud to present Clive Barker's "Books of Blood" in digital for the first time.The Books of Blood combine the ordinary with the extraordinary while radiating the eroticism that has become Barker's signature. Weaving tales of the everyday world transformed into an unrecognizable place, where reason no longer exists and logic ceases to explain the workings of the universe, Clive Barker provides the stuff of nightmares in packages too tantalizing to resist.Never one to shy away from the unimaginable or the unspeakable, Clive Barker breathes life into our deepest, darkest nightmares, creating visions that are at once terrifying, tender, and witty. The Books of Blood confirm what horror fans everywhere have known for a long time: We will be hearing from Clive Barker for many years to come.This second volume contains the short stories : "Dread," "Hell's Event," "Jacqueline Ess: Her Will and Testament," "The Skins of the Fathers," and "New Murders in the Rue Morgue," as well as a new introduction by author Steven Savi Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
