The rain hammered against the corrugated iron roof of the decommissioned train shed, each drop a staccato note in a symphony of urban decay. Inside, nestled amidst the shadows cast by skeletal cranes and rusted tracks, sat Alex Pierce, hunched over a flickering laptop screen. The worn leather jacket did little to shield him from the biting Sydney winter, but the chill that truly consumed him emanated from the digital abyss before him.

We walk on fire or air, so Daddy liked to say. Basement floors too hot to touch. Steaming green lawns in the dead of winter. Sinkholes, quick and sudden, plunging open at your feet. The underground mine fires ravaging Pennsylvania coal country have forced eleven-year-old Brigid Howley and her family to seek refuge with her estranged grandparents, the formidable Gram and the black lung stricken Gramp. Tragedy is no stranger to the Howleys, a proud Irish-American clan who takes strange pleasure in the "curse" laid upon them generations earlier by a priest who ran afoul of the Molly Maguires. The weight of this legacy rests heavily on a new generation, when Brigid, already struggling to keep her family together, makes a grisly discovery in a long-abandoned bootleg mine shaft. In the aftermath, decades-old secrets threaten to prove just as dangerous to the Howleys as the burning, hollow ground beneath their feet. Inspired by real-life events in Centralia and Carbondale, where devastating coal mine fires irrevocably changed the lives of residents, The Hollow Ground is an extraordinary debut with an atmospheric, voice-driven narrative and an indelible sense of place. Lovers of literary fiction will find in Harnett's young, determined protagonist a character as heartbreakingly captivating as any in contemporary literature.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Remus sold himself to Imogene Holmes. He would handle her divorce, and she didn’t have to worry about his fee; in fact, he would pay the rent on her apartment and spend more time with her than he did with his wife. #2 Remus had always enjoyed confrontation, and he fought with the plumber who had disturbed his wife. He was eventually acquitted. His wife, Lillian, filed for divorce a second and final time, accusing him of cruelty. He agreed to a settlement reflective of his success: a lump sum of $50,000, $25 per week in alimony, and $30,000 in a trust for their daughter. #3 Remus’s plan was to start a large-scale operation to sell liquor on the medicinal market. He would obtain wholesale drug companies, then obtain withdrawal permits that would allow him to remove whiskey from his warehouses and sell it on the medicinal market. #4 Imogene had sold herself to Remus, too. She was malleable and receptive to his schemes. She would not tell anyone that Remus had always been terrified of ghosts. She would not divulge that his brother, Herman, had died in an insane asylum.

Published to mark the bicentenary of Alfred Tennyson's birth, these essays offer an important revaluation of his achievement and its lasting importance. After several years in which the temper of criticism has been largely political (and often hostile towards Tennyson in particular) a number of influential recent accounts of Victorian poetry have rediscovered the virtues of a closer style of reading and the benefits and pleasures of an approach that, without at all ignoring social and cultural contexts, approaches them through a primary alertness to textual detail and literary history. This volume, including entirely commissioned work by a wide range of critics and scholars from across the profession in both Britain and North America, seeks to bring such forms of attention to bear on the immense variety of Tennyson's career by exploring the complex and multiple connections between Tennyson and other writers - his predecessors, his contemporaries, and his successors. Collectively, the essays describe an intricate network of affiliation and indebtedness, resistance and reconciliation. They provide a unique assessment of Tennyson's origins, work, and imaginative legacy as he enters upon his third century.
