![]() ![]() Lucid and packed with suspense, Edogawa Rampo's stories found in Japanese Tales of Mystery & Imagination have enthralled Japanese readers for over half a century. These nine bloodcurdling, chilling tales present a genre of literature largely unknown to readers outside Japan, including the strange story of a quadruple amputee and his perverse wife the record of a man who creates a mysterious chamber of mirrors and discovers hidden pleasures within the morbid confession of a maniac who envisions a career of foolproof "psychological" murders and the bizarre tale of a chair-maker who buries himself inside an armchair and enjoys the sordid "loves" of the women who sit on his handiwork. ![]() Japanese Tales of Mystery & Imagination, the first volume of its kind translated into English, is written with the quick tempo of the West but rich with the fantasy of the East.

They are both exceptionally busy and the day-to-day reality of life has affected them the same way it affects all of us. Tyler is pursuing his PhD in theological studies, and Poppy has been working towards building her dance studio and foundation. Midnight Mass starts about three years after the ending of Priest. I’d happily start a religion, or more likely a cult, to honor Ms. It’s fitting she decided to write stories involving theology because reading her books is like a religious experience for me. ![]() Your basest desires and thoughts can’t hide when a Simone book is in your hands because she brings every emotion to the forefront. Sierra Simone has an immeasurable gift whether she’s writing contemporary or historical, and her characters find their way into the deepest part of you. Tyler and Poppy are back, you guys! My heart and my left-hand could hardly keep up! ![]() ![]() ![]() Talking about Andre’s educational history, he attended American School.
