When the Lights Went out

Keith Stoner had been in a state of suspended animation for eighteen years. It was eighteen years earlier that Stoner had been an American member of a joint U.S. - Soviet venture to capture an alien ship, but when the Soviets had to pull out, Stoner willfully persisted and it was then, during that time on the strange ship that Stoner fell into the strange state that was neither here, nor there.Jo Camerata, the ambitious young student who fell in love with Stoner is now head of Vanguard Industries, which has recovered the alien ship. As a result, her company now controls the vast new technology and the fortune it reaps in - as well as control of Keith Stoner. What Camerata doesn't know, however, is that someone else has been awake, someone who dwells deep within the labyrinths of Stoner's mind.

Barnaby Rudge was the fifth of Dickens' novels to be published. Set against the backdrop of the Gordon Riots of 1780, Barnaby Rudge is a story of mystery and suspense which begins with an unsolved double murder and goes on to involve conspiracy, blackmail, abduction and retribution. Through the course of the novel fathers and sons become opposed, apprentices plot against their masters and Protestants clash with Catholics on the streets. And, as London erupts into riot, Barnaby Rudge himself struggles to escape the curse of his own past. With its dramatic descriptions of public violence and private horror, its strange secrets and ghostly doublings, Barnaby Rudge is a powerful, disturbing blend of historical realism and Gothic melodrama.

A New York Public Library 2017 Best Books for Teens selected title! It's the start of Jordan Sun's junior year at the Kensington-Blaine Boarding School for the Performing Arts. Unfortunately, she's an Alto 2, which—in the musical theatre world—is sort of like being a vulture in the wild: She has a spot in the ecosystem, but nobody's falling over themselves to express their appreciation. So it's no surprise when she gets shut out of the fall musical for the third year straight. But then the school gets a mass email: A spot has opened up in the Sharpshooters, Kensington's elite a cappella octet. Worshiped … revered … all male. Desperate to prove herself, Jordan auditions in her most convincing drag, and it turns out that Jordan Sun, Tenor 1, is exactly what the Sharps are looking for.

《东方之旅》是黑塞写作态度的转折点，从强调自我的完美个人主义，到献身给团体的崇高服务精神。描写生之追寻者的心路历程。我们不再有一位朝着模糊的理想奋斗的主角，而只有试图表达和实现理想的一个中心思想。透过十八世纪流行的“盟会小说”引人入胜的技巧，象征黑塞自己的书中主角H.H，为盟会所做的象征性旅行——一次穿越时空的“卡夫卡式”经验，终于为他所追求的永恒精神领域——“第三王国”下了有效的定义。以象征性的自传开始的这本书，卒以艺术的神圣化结束。黑塞在此已经到达唯美的理想境界了。

传闻，当今皇上只爱美男不爱美女，更不爱江山。传闻，当今皇上宠兵部侍郎大人宠上了天传闻，当今皇上在后宫为兵部侍郎准备了一座辉煌的宫殿，供两人日夜那个啥…传闻，兵部侍郎比那后宫的娘娘们还要美上几倍，男人看了会直接扑上去，女人见了就直接撞墙，小孩见了就缠着不放，老人见了连皱纹一大堆了还能看到两边的红晕…传闻，兵部侍郎是天下最美的人儿，人见人抢……有关于这位皇上“男宠”的传言太多了，多得数不清。【片段一】有老奴抹着冷汗从殿外跑进，“皇上，皇上，不好了！”正在批阅奏章的皇帝抬了一下眼皮，“何事这么慌张”“大人他打了新皇后…”“嗯，打了就打了，不就是个女人么，打死了，就把尸体给母后交差便是”“皇上，大人他说，皇上没有眼光，选了个丑女人丢他的脸…”“嗯，那是他长得太美了才会这么说”皇帝无动于衷，那老奴更急了。“大人还说…”那老奴小心翼翼的看了眼依然淡定自若的皇帝一眼，吞了吞口水。“他还说什么？”见下面的人不说话，忍不住问了句。“他还说，皇上是个不举的男人，叫皇后娘娘趁早卷铺盖回老家，别浪费了大好的青春年华…”老奴话还没有说完，那淡定自若的男人再也不能保持他的淡定了，霍地站起身来，脸色铁青。“不举？”俊美的皇帝冷不防的哼了一声，深邃的瞳孔里闪着邪肆的光芒。“皇上，要不要老奴…”“去，叫他在床上等着朕，朕要让他知道朕是不是如他所说那般的不举…”“啊？”【片段二】“爱卿…”“臣在…”“朕的妃子都被你给赶跑了，你如何补尝朕的损失？”皇帝邪邪对着某男哈着热气，企图明了。“回皇上，那是因为皇上的不举，所幸的，臣就做了个好人，免得误了人家姑娘的青春年华…”皇帝危险的眯起黑眸，“哦？那朕是不是要感谢爱卿的大仁大义？”“皇上不必感谢微臣，这是为人臣子该为百姓所做的…”“哦？看来，朕的臣子都是一些为国为民的好人，既然如此，朕的不举，爱卿是否如爱民如子那般为朕疹治？”“回皇上，臣不是太医，恕臣无能…”某人还是一眼一板的回答。“爱卿，朕的病就算是太医来了也治不起，只有爱卿才能让朕恢复勇猛无敌的状态，怎么，爱卿这是不愿意么？”“臣不敢，既然皇上说臣能治好皇上，那就来吧！”“嗯，这才是朕的好爱卿！你在干什么？”前一秒还在兴奋的皇帝，后一秒见某男的动作就僵住了。“皇上不是不举么？臣在用手帮皇上扶举…”“…”————————————
