Story1
Against the Wind: Memoir of a Dissident Dubliner is the story of life in the first 50 years after independence was won for a part of the island of Ireland. The times were financially tough and morally prude, with dissenters both north and south of the border few and far between. Intellectualism was suspect, and liberalism was often equated with communism. A wealth of varying and informative material and the ability to anchor the personal securely within the public domain gives this memoir a universal appeal.

The issue of Irish home rule was the dominant political question of British and Irish politics in the late 1800s to early 1900s. Published in 1887, this work contains articles in favour of the measure. (Irish home rule was finally approved in 1914 but implementation was suspended until after WWI.) "The object of the writers has been to treat the difficult questions connected with the Government of Ireland in a dispassionate spirit; and the volume is offered to the public in the hope that it may, at a time of warm controversy over passing events, help to lead thoughtful men back to the ...

Story0
What Was It? is a landmark work of supernatural fiction in which terror arises not from apparitions or superstition, but from direct physical evidence of the impossible. The unseen assailant breathes, struggles, bleeds, and can be bound—yet remains utterly invisible. What begins as a nightmare becomes a methodical investigation, as science, logic, and courage are brought to bear on a phenomenon that refuses explanation.

Audiolibro narrado en castellano. Fitz James O’Brien irlandés a quien el maestro del terror cósmico Howard Phillips Lovecraft lo bautizó como el Poe céltico dedicándole las siguientes palabras: “Entre los primeros discípulos de Poe puede colocarse al joven y brillante irlandés Fitz James O’Brien, emigro a Estados Unidos y murió honrosamente en la guerra civil. A él debemos What Was It?, el primer relato corto bien estructurado sobre un ser tangible pero invisible, y prototipo del Horla de Maupassant; fue él, también, que creó el inimitable Diamond Lens.
