Books By Livia Llewellyn
Fornace (Italian Edition)
10 Oct, 2018
₹ 740.78
Dopo gli oscuri recessi di Obsidia in "Profondità", torna Livia Llewellyn con la sua raccolta di racconti più importante, quattordici storie che si insinuano nei più profondi e torbidi meandri dell'essere umano, con una prosa oscura, commovente e disturbante, come una lama che affonda nella carne, in un cruento e sensuale viaggio sulla scia di autori quali Edgar Allan Poe, Clive Barker e Caitlín R. Kiernan. "La mia vita è una sorta di Frankenstein di attimi e di esperienze perdute. Le gioie, i trionfi, gli attacchi, l'amore, la violenza, la vergogna, le lotte, i piaceri, il dolore, la bellezza, le mostruosità: l'atto di sforzarmi di vivere la mia vita verso la morte ha cancellato tutto, anno dopo anno, sistematicamente. Non so nulla. Tranne quando scrivo." (Livia Llewellyn)

The machines have been running overtime in Obsidia's Becher District and everything seems a touch out of sync.

Profondità (Italian Edition)
18 Oct, 2016
₹ 253.40
Obsidia si estende in una tentacolare foresta di ciminiere degna di un Dickens post-apocalittico, mentre sibille marine vaticinano inalando esalazioni venefiche e divinità ctonie provenienti dagli abissi siderali chiedono di essere liberate dalla pietra...Il viaggio di Gillian è un ritorno alle tenebre della sua infanzia, alle miniere di carbone, un'esplorazione degli abissi della propria anima, della sua Profondità. Ma Livia Llewellyn offre anche un punto di vista cosmico e lovecraftiano, con il quale prendere le misure dell'esistenza umana: la prospettiva dei marmi e delle ere geologiche che li hanno plasmati, quella delle creature immani imprigionate tra le fiamme degli incendi sotterranei, per le quali la presenza umana è semplicemente un dato non registrato, troppo insignificante per essere notata.

Congress Magazine: Issue 1, June 2016
3 Jun, 2016
₹ 236.00
Congress Magazine's inaugural issue starts things off with Livia Llewellyn's "Bohemian Grove, 1916," perfect summer reading if you love rumpled dresses, tanned thighs, and owls. Then, Robert Levy takes us to a world of drugs, love, and transgression with "My Heart's Own Desire." Our reprint this month is Matthew Addison's "Wish Girls," where we learn that if wishes were sexy immortal cheerleaders, beggars would... well, they'd ride. That's what they'd do. And we finish out the issue with David Nickle's "The Bicameral Twist," which features Greek mythology and a machine that lets people see one's dreams. Always a good idea...

Furnace
15 Feb, 2016
₹ 398.84
Horror fiction has long celebrated and explored the twin engines driving human existence. Call them what you like: Sex and Death, Love and Destruction, Temptation and Terror. While many may strive to reach the extremes, few authors manage to find the beauty that rests in the liminal space between these polar forces, the shuddering ecstasy encased within the shock. And then there’s Livia Llewellyn, an author praised for her dark, stirring, evocative prose and disturbing, personal narratives.
Lush, layered, multifaceted, and elegant, the thirteen tales comprising Furnace showcase why Livia Llewellyn has been lauded by scholars and fans of weird fiction alike, and why she has been nominated multiple times for the Shirley Jackson Award and included in year’s best anthologies. These are exquisite stories, of beauty and cruelty, of pleasure and pain, of hunger, and of sharp teeth sinking into tender flesh.

Death and pleasure. Freud’s Todestrieb, his statement that “libido has the task of making the destroying instinct innocuous, and it fulfills the task by diverting that instinct to a great extent outwards....The instinct is then called the destructive instinct, the instinct for mastery, or the will to power.” Few authors have spun stories of Thanatos and Eros as skillfully and powerfully as Livia Llewellyn. In his introduction to this volume, Laird Barron writes “Scant difference exists between exquisite pleasure and pain.” An orphan girl with a mind for anthracite falls into the hands of a cult worshiping an entombed god. In the Pacific Northwest, evergreens lull prepubescent girls into their trunks to serve as wombs. A suburban housewife troubled by her present encounters the sixteen-year-old girl she ached to touch in her dreams. These ten stories promise to indulge the reader’s sensibilities, their fears and desires.
