Dark Love - Short Stories

Love. Perhaps the one word solution for everything. An emotion, a state of mind that we strive for, search for. A wondrous force that binds, inspires, and a force that can spin out of control; unbalanced and fragile. Love reflects, changes and embraces us all. In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. Love is good. It’s positive, a source of joy, nourishment and all over goodness. But sometimes other more malevolent forces come to play. They infect that love, they see their form as better. Instinctively we would shy away but sometimes its pull is too powerful, almost attractive. We are drawn closer into the shadows.1 - Dark Love - Short Stories - An Introduction2 - St Johns Eve by Nikolai Gogol3 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 1 by Nathaniel Hawthorne4 - Rappaccini's Daughter - Part 2 by Nathaniel Hawthorne5 - The Mortal Immortal by Mary Shelley6 - The Mass of Shadows by Anatole France7 - From the Dead by Edith Nesbit8 - Lost in a Pyramid (or, The Mummy's Curse) by Louisa May Alcott writing as A M Bernard9 - Amour Dure - Part 1 by Violet Paget writing as Vernon Lee10 - Amour Dure - Part 2 by Violet Paget writing as Vernon Lee11 - The Phantom Rickshaw by Rudyard Kipling12 - The Force of Blood by Miguel de Cervantes13 - Strange Event in the Life of Schalken the Painter by Sheridan Le Fanu14 - The Dream Woman by Wilkie Collins15 - The Cold Embrace by Mary Elizabeth Braddon16 - The Devil's Mother-in-Law by Fernan Caballeron17 - An Alpine Divorce by Robert Barr18 - The Moonlit Road by Ambrose Bierce19 - The Story of Salome by Amelia Edwards20 - The Ebony Frame by Edith Nesbit21 - The Second Generation by Algernon Blackwood22 - Wake Not the Dead - Part 1 by Ernst Raupach23 - Wake Not the Dead - Part 2 by Ernst Raupach24 - The Vampire Maid by Hume Nisbet25 - Vampirismus or Aurelia by E T A Hoffman26 - Uncle Abraham's Romance by Edith Nesbit27 - Dionea - Part 1 by Vernon Lee28 - Dionea - Part 2 by Vernon Lee
