This brooding mansion is haunted by a centuries-old curse that casts the shadow of ancestral sin upon the last four members of the distinctive Pyncheon family. Mysterious deaths threaten the living. Musty documents nestle behind hidden panels carrying the secret of the family’s salvation—or its downfall. Hawthorne called The House of the Seven Gables “a Romance,” and freely bestowed upon it many fascinating gothic touches. A brilliant intertwining of the popular, the symbolic, and the historical, the novel is a powerful exploration of personal and national guilt, a work that Henry James declared “the closest approach we are likely to have to the Great American Novel.” http://feedbooks.com/book/1513.png http://feedbooks.com/book/1513.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/1513.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/1513.mobi Uncle Silas Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu http://feedbooks.com/book/1505 urn:isbn:0140437460 en 1864 Novels Crime/Mystery Gothic Uncle Silas is a Victorian Gothic mystery/thriller novel by the Anglo-Irish writer J. Sheridan Le Fanu. It is notable as one of the earliest examples of the locked room mystery subgenre. It is not a novel of the supernatural (despite a few creepily ambiguous touches), but does show a strong interest in the occult and in the ideas of Swedenborg. Like many of Le Fanu's novels, it grew out of an earlier short story, "A Passage in the Secret History of an Irish Countess" (1839), which he also published as "The Murdered Cousin" in the 1851 collection Ghost Stories and Tales of Mystery. The setting of the original story was Irish; presumably it was changed to Derbyshire for the novel because this would appeal more to a British audience. http://feedbooks.com/book/1505.png http://feedbooks.com/book/1505.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/1505.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/1505.mobi Three Men in a Boat Jerome Klapka Jerome http://feedbooks.com/book/2173 en 1889 Novels Humor/Satire Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog), published in 1889, is a humorous account by Jerome K. Jerome of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford. The book was initially intended to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history along the route, but the humorous elements took over to the point where the serious and somewhat sentimental passages seem a distraction to the comic novel. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers, the jokes seem fresh and witty even today. The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator J.) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave (who went on to become a senior manager in Barclays Bank) and Carl Hentschel (the founder of a London printing business, called Harris in the book), with whom he often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional, but "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog." The trip is a typical boating holiday of the time in a Thames camping skiff. This is just after commercial boat traffic on the Upper Thames had died out, replaced by the 1880s craze for boating as a leisure activity.

In line with other Thackeray's works, Pendennis offers an insightful and satiric picture of human character and aristocratic society. The masterful characterizations include the snobbish Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan. http://feedbooks.com/book/1507.png http://feedbooks.com/book/1507.pdf http://feedbooks.com/book/1507.epub http://feedbooks.com/book/1507.mobi Carmilla Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu http://feedbooks.com/book/1506 urn:isbn:1587155958 en 1871 Short Fiction Horror Sexuality Gothic "Carmilla" is a Gothic novella by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu.
