I've also been loving the British Library's Tales of the Weird collection. I plan on reading through a few of these over the fall & winter. Currently reading Mary Elizabeth Braddon's short stories in The Face on the Glass. * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #spookybook #britishlibrary #talesoftheweird #britishlibrarytalesoftheweird #maryelizabethbraddon #victober #pugsandbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/B4TOeFEAtQW/?igshid=xizrzm98rlsi

Did I mention I have really enjoyed the dialogue and vaguely homo-social overtone of Lady Audley's Secret? #amreading #ladyaudleyssecret #maryelizabethbraddon #victorian #englishmajor https://www.instagram.com/p/B32pvOxggO-/?igshid=1gfccamtd7dsb

Hello everyone and happy Thursday. While I eagerly await the end of my first week back at work after some time off I’d like to share with you another paperback book haul. Many, MANY more to come! 😂🙈 I’ve heard amazing things about all these books and as always, I wish there were more hours in the day so that I could have more time to read and relax! Have you read or want to read any of these books? Let’s have a chat in the comments! 😁 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookworm #booklover #bookhaul #paperbackbookhaul #tbrpile #thesouthernbookclubsguidetoslayingvampires #gradyhendrix #ladyaudleyssecret #maryelizabethbraddon #nudibranch #irenosenokojie https://www.instagram.com/p/CJwcbwwgwgs/?igshid=d990nnniglfh

"𝕴𝖙 𝖎𝖘 𝖓𝖔𝖙 𝖌𝖍𝖔𝖘𝖙𝖑𝖞, 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖘 𝖊𝖒𝖇𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖊, 𝖋𝖔𝖗 𝖎𝖙 𝖎𝖘 𝖕𝖆𝖑𝖕𝖆𝖇𝖑𝖊 𝖙𝖔 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖙𝖔𝖚𝖈𝖍 - 𝖎𝖙 𝖈𝖆𝖓𝖓𝖔𝖙 𝖇𝖊 𝖗𝖊𝖆𝖑 𝖇𝖊𝖈𝖆𝖚𝖘𝖊 𝖎𝖙 𝖎𝖘 𝖛𝖎𝖘𝖎𝖇𝖑𝖊." - Mary Elizabeth Braddon 🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️ Following directly on from the era of the early Gothic novel (marked by the mode's first-born: Horace Walpole's 'The Castle of Otranto', 1764 - itself a ghostly tale), Victorian Britons became obsessed by the ghost story. Its popularity was so great that literary scholar and ghost story specialist, Jack Sullivan, has named the historical period between the 1830s (when Gothic novels were beginning to fall out of vogue) and the First World War (1914-1918) as the "Golden Age of the Ghost Story". Gathering my various collected ghost stories together (inspired by conversation with @smaugish 🖤) it, therefore, came as no surprise that Victorian literature featured with little exclusion. Influenced by traditions of the gothic*, the ghost stories of the Golden Era turned outward to collective folklore and inward to the individual, human mind, extracting ghosts from one and implanting them in the other. Though not the extent of the ghost story's popularity and publication, the Victorian Era is an undeniably haunted landscape. Filled with spirits, cameras, ectoplasm, and spooky stories galore, it is one I want to explore in search of September's 👻Glimpses of Ghosts👻. 🤔: Have you read many short Victorian ghost stories? Any faves to share? 🕷️ *For a clearer understanding of what Gothic fiction is, check out The Seven Gothic Signs on the blog - 🔗 in bio. . #ghoststories #victorianliterature #bookstagram #shortstories #horrorstories #bookstack #edwardgorey #roalddahl #ghosts #victorianghosts #spookynerd #spooky #haunted #spookyseason #gothicliterature #gothicfiction #gothicnovel #gothic #bookphotography #maryelizabethbraddon #bookquote #classicliterature #englishliterature #glimpsesofghosts #bookblogger #academia #victorianera #victorianhistory https://www.instagram.com/p/CErlYbTA-ZF/?igshid=dme7znytupf3

Which of these books/covers do you find yourself drawn to most? . I love both The Awakening and Villette but each cover is absolutely beautiful! I am so excited to present you all with the The Modern Library Torchbearers series today! @penguinrandomhouse wanted to create a series of classics that would "honor a more inclusive vision of classic books" by "recognizing women who wrote on their own terms, with boldness, creativity, and a spirit of resistance." Each book has an introduction by a contemporary woman writer and each book cover was designed by women working in Random House’s design department. How cool is that?! I am so honored to represent these books and these brave women writers today! I highly encourage you all to check out this amazing new classics series! To learn more about each book in the series, see below! Also, @paperbackbones did an awesome post on this series too, so check that out! . Thank you so much to @penguinrandomhouse for gifting me with this awesome series! . 📚 The inaugural list for the series features: - American Indian Stories by Zitkála-Sá, with an introduction by Layli Long Soldier (May 21) - The Heads of Cerberus by Francis Stevens, with an introduction by Naomi Alderman (May 21) - Passing by Nella Larsen, with an introduction by Kaitlyn Greenidge (May 21) - The Awakening by Kate Chopin, with an introduction by Carmen Maria Machado (June 18) - Lady Audley’s Secret by Mary Elizabeth Braddon, with an introduction by Flynn Berry (June 18) - Villette by Charlotte Brontë, with an introduction by Weike Wang (June 18) #modernlibrary #modernlibrarytorchbearers #modernlibraryclassics #penguinrandomhouse #classiclit #classicliterature #coverlove #womenwriters #torchbearer #katechopin #charlottebronte #francisstevens #nellalarsen #zitkalasa #maryelizabethbraddon #booksandtea #bookstagram #bookaesthetic #bibliophile #bookworm #readersofinstagram #ireadclassics https://www.instagram.com/p/B0LrvngAcpt/?igshid=1wpa375bbzk0e

🎧 Meimuna - La tristesse du diable
.
Gün içerisinde havanın bu denli karanlık olması, insanda yataktan çıkmama isteği uyandırıyor. Aylardan Nisan ve ben kalın bir battaniyeyle karmaşık düşlerin içine dalıyorum.
.
Dün Balat'ta bir sahafa gittik arkadaşımla. Ufak da olsa fransızca ve ingilizce bölümleri vardı. Özellikle fransızca bölümündeki kitaplar yeni gibiydi. Aralarından bu kitabı tercih ettim. İkinci el kitaplar almayı seviyor musunuz? En son aldığınız kitabın ismi nedir? Bana bir kitap ismi bırakın.
