    Ted Bundy is the most darkly fascinating and widely analyzed serial killer of the past century, possibly ever. No sex criminal, from Jack the Ripper to Zodiac to the Green River Killer, inhabits the popular mind as does Bundy. Now, the two men who know Bundy’s criminal nature best - Dr. Robert Keppel and author Stephen Michaud - have teamed to write the definitive narrative of Bundy’s bloody career, as well as the inside story of how Keppel tracked the elusive killer for 15 years, from his first days as a rookie Seattle homicide investigator to a series of tense encounters within the Florida State Prison where Bundy, in a doomed attempt at forestalling his execution, finally gave up some of his Terrible Secrets.The story of Keppel’s details his long struggle to identify the handsome, articulate onetime law student and confront him with his crimes and draws from Keppel’s extensive mail correspondence with Bundy. The result is a riveting, close-up portrait of a “diabolical genius”, as a federal judge described Bundy, stripped of myths and misinformation and revealed - in his own words - for the archly sly, murder-obsessed predator he became.  ungekürzt.

    Take Audible's July/August Fantasy & Science Fiction collection with you to the beach. It's got rich humor galore, as well as a couple of particularly evocative futures which offer new perspective on these troubled times.We begin with the latest installment of Paul Di Filippo's Plumage from Pegasus column, "Write What You Sell," providing a new twist on literature and publishing.Then, Al Michaud takes us Down East for the annual clambake in "Clem Crowder's Catch," a Maine horror story that will elicit both shivers and laughs.Benjamin Rosenbaum's surreal "Red Leather Tassels" introduces us to the sex life of a very special woodpecker. "Repository" by Carol Emshwiller is an edgy and powerful glimpse into the mind of "the universal soldier." Harlan Ellison reads Harvey Jacobs' existential fish story, "Spawning," with comic restraint.From the pen of the wonderful Pat Murphy comes "Dragon's Gate," a tale about a prince, a minstrel and, of course, a dragon, that sets the entire tradition of such stories on its ear.And finally, Adam-Troy Castro's stunning novella "The Tangled Strings of the Marionettes," explores the nature and purposes of art, humanity, and perhaps life itself.

    In the deep woods of the Maine borderlands, the legend of huntsman Pete Landry is still told around cottage campfires to scare children, a tragic story of love, lust, and madness. During the early summer of 1967, inseparable teenage beauties Sissy Morgan and Zaza Mulligan wander among the vacation cottages in the community of Boundary, drinking and smoking and swearing, attracting the attention of boys and men. First one and then the other go missing, and both are eventually found dead in the forest. Have they been the victims of freak accidents? Or is someone hunting the young women of Boundary? And if there is a hunter, who might be next? The Summer of Love quickly becomes the Summer of Fear, and detective Stan Michaud, already haunted by a case he could not solve, is determined to find out what exactly is happening in Boundary before someone else is found dead. A story of deep psychological power and unbearable suspense, Andrée A. Michaud's award-winning Boundary is an utterly gripping read about a community divided by suspicion and driven together by primal terror. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Aaron Abano.

    Akashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir. Each title comprises all new stories, each one set in a distinct neighborhood or location within the respective city. Following the success of Toronto Noir, the Noir series explores new Canadian terrain, featuring both English and Francophone authors.  Brand-new stories by: Patrick Senécal, Tess Fragoulis, Howard Shrier, Michel Basilières, Robert Pobi, Samuel Archibald, Geneviève Lefebvre, Ian Truman, Johanne Seymour, Arjun Basu, Martin Michaud, Melissa Yi, Catherine McKenzie, Peter Kirby, and Brad Smith.  From the introduction by John McFetridge and Jacques Filippi:  Montreal is one of the oldest cities in North America and seems to be in a constant state of flux, changing its personality every few decades. Today, the city has its own language: Franglais (or Frenglish). Maybe the first word spoken in that language was noir.... Perhaps it's fitting that a collection that brings so many of Montreal's cultures together is noir. Much of the city's literary tradition was defined by the two solitudes, and most of the works delved deeply into single neighborhoods.... This collection, with voices of French and English writers, visits many neighborhoods and combines them into something that is, if not totally coherent, at least as coherent as the beautiful mess that is Montreal....Each neighborhood is different, and of course, each Montrealer (Montrealais) is different, making up the pieces of the mosaic of our city. Some are bright and shiny, others are darker and somber, but all have a shadow in the noir.   ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Dans le cadre d'un atelier de rédaction offert sur la plateforme zoom par l'Association pour le développement des aînées et aînées de l'UQAR (ADAUQAR) à l'automne 2021, huit personnes ont accepté d'écrire une nouvelle littéraire. Rien de moins! Un thème a été proposé : « Rencontrer l'inconnu ». L'inconnu pouvant être un individu venu d'ailleurs, un endroit à explorer ou une situation inusitée... Les histoires se déroulent principalement dans le Bas-Saint-Laurent. Voici réuni le résultat de cette besogne, que l'on présente ici avec beaucoup de fierté. Vous verrez, les thèmes abordés sont très variés. La qualité de l'écriture, la sensibilité et l'imagination représentent des valeurs qu'il fallait prendre en considération. Voici un aperçu des histoires que nous avons brodées : - Une femme qui, par hasard, se retrouve en contact avec un inconnu qui semble déjà la connaître...  ( Anne Bernier) - Une femme qui, après avoir élevé sa famille, relance sa vie grâce à une surprise... ( Bertrand Dion) - Des ados qui s'aventurent dans une grotte de la Matapédia... ( Nicole Fournier) - Un nouveau virus qui s'étend de façon surprenante et inquiétante... ( Mario Bélanger) - Une famille francophone qui accueille pour l'été de riches touristes anglophones, dans le Bas-Saint-Laurent des années 1930... ( Suzette de Rome) - Un homme qui a vécu dans sa jeunesse un déracinement en Gaspésie et qui raconte son expérience personnelle... ( Rose-Marie Gallagher) - Une femme qui est confrontée à une inconnue en elle-même, à cause d'un problème de santé... ( Claire Dubé) - Un restaurateur apprécié qui meurt de façon mystérieuse dans un accident... ( Harold Michaud) Nous espérons que vous éprouverez autant de plaisir à lire nos histoires que nous en avons eu à les écrire.

    Paris steht ab dem Frühjahr 2022 für einige Monate im Zeichen der Neuen Sachlichkeit. Um August Sander (1876-1964), der mit 32 Photographien in der Ausstellung im Centre Pompidou vertreten ist, gruppieren sich Künstler und Themen, die in den 1920er JahrenDeutschland zum Epizentrum jener Bewegung werden ließen, die unter dem Begriff Neue Sachlichkeit - Nouvelle Objectivité - New Objectivity Weltruhm erlangte. Zwischen den beiden Weltkriegen erfasste sie nahezu alle Bereiche von Kunst und Leben: die Malerei und Bildhauerei, das Design wie die Architektur, Photographie, Film und Graphik, Theater und Literatur. Namen wie George Grosz, Otto Dix und Max Beckmann, Walter Gropius und Marcel Breuer, Karl Blossfeldt und Albert Renger-Patzsch, Bertolt Brecht oder Paul Hindemith stehen stellvertretend für die vielen kreativen Köpfe, die in der Weimarer Republik den Aufbruch in die Moderne wagten und ab 1933 ins Exil oder die innere Emigration getrieben wurden. Vom 11. Mai bis zum 5. September 2022 versammelt das Pariser Centre Pompidou die Protagonisten der Neuen Sachlichkeit in einer umfassenden Rückschau auf die kulturell innovativsten Jahre des 20. Jahrhunderts in Deutschland. Die Ausstellung wandert anschließend ins Louisiana Museum im dänischen Humlebæk (13.10.-19.2.2023). Den 320 Seiten starken Katalog mit 340 Abbildungen und 34 Textbeiträgen bieten wir in deutscher Übersetzung an.Mit Texten von Angela Lampe, Florian Ebner, Inge Herold, Sabina Becker, Jean-Christophe Royoux, Philipp Sturm und Christina Treutlein, Werner Möller, Bernd Stiegler, Philippe-Alain Michaud, Olaf Peters, Simone Förster, Jonathan Pouthier, Catherine Wermester, Herbert Molderings, Patrick Rössler, Elke Mittmann, Kerstin Barndt, Pascal Huynh, Irène Bonnaud, Jonathan Odden, Marie Gispert, Christian Joschke, Olivier Agard und Mathias Listl Mit Werken von Otto Dix, Willi Baumeister, Max Beckmann, Carl Grossberg, George Grosz, Hannah Höch, Raoul Hausmann, Christian Schad, Oskar Nerlinger, Georg Schrimpf u.v.a. Mit Photographien von August Sander, Aenne Biermann, Lotte Jacobi, Willy Zielke, Lucia Moholy-Nagy, Albert Renger-Patzsch u.v.a.
