Synopsis Yellow Fog by : Les Daniels

This is the frightening adventure of Don Sebastian, the immortal vampire; a dark figure emerging from the shadows of the past to haunt Victorian London. Sebastian, who dwells among the horrors of the Spanish Inquisition and the French Revolution, seeks sanctuary and sustenance in a stable society of gaslight and hansom cab. In Yellow Fog, Les Daniels has turned the traditional Victorian vampire story inside out, revealing both the aspirations of the undead and the depths of degradation that only mortals may achieve.

Synopsis London Fog by : Christine L. Corton

A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice A Telegraph Editor’s Choice An Evening Standard “Best Books about London” Selection In popular imagination, London is a city of fog. The classic London fogs, the thick yellow “pea-soupers,” were born in the industrial age of the early nineteenth century. Christine L. Corton tells the story of these epic London fogs, their dangers and beauty, and their lasting effects on our culture and imagination. “Engrossing and magnificently researched...Corton’s book combines meticulous social history with a wealth of eccentric detail. Thus we learn that London’s ubiquitous plane trees were chosen for their shiny, fog-resistant foliage. And since Jack the Ripper actually went out to stalk his victims on fog-free nights, filmmakers had to fake the sort of dank, smoke-wreathed London scenes audiences craved. It’s discoveries like these that make reading London Fog such an unusual, enthralling and enlightening experience.” —Miranda Seymour, New York Times Book Review “Corton, clad in an overcoat, with a linklighter before her, takes us into the gloomier, long 19th century, where she revels in its Gothic grasp. Beautifully illustrated, London Fog delves fascinatingly into that swirling miasma.” —Philip Hoare, New Statesman

Synopsis The Fog by : Kyo Maclear

A clever and whimsical environmental fable about a bird who is a human-watcher from a dynamic author-illustrator duo. Warble is a small yellow warbler who lives on the beautiful island of Icyland, where he pursues his hobby of human watching. But on a warm day, a deep fog rolls in and obscures his view. The rest of the birds don't seem to notice the fog or the other changes Warble observes on the island. The more the fog is ignored, the more it spreads. When a Red-hooded Spectacled Female (Juvenile) appears, Warble discovers that he's not the only one who notices the fog. Will they be able to find others who can see it too? And is the fog here to stay? Kyo Maclear's witty story, brought to life with the delicate, misty artwork of Kenard Pak, is a poignant yet humorous reminder of the importance of environmental awareness.

Synopsis Delicate Forget-me-nots by : Dana Krystle

Forget-me-nots are delicate blue cluster spring flowers used as a symbol of remembrance, true love and devotion. It is said that according to a Greek myth, Zeus thought he had given all the plants are name, whereupon a small blue flower shouted “forget-me-not!”. The name comes from the Ancient Greek μυοσωτίς "mouse's ear", which the foliage is thought to resemble. In the Northern Hemisphere, they are colloquially known as forget-me-nots or scorpion grasses. In this poetry book, The concept was to create a number of poems that are centered around stories of love and loss. The poems are somewhat melancholic, and reflects the state of heartbreak and the excruciating pain of being in love. There are over 150 Illustrations, text art and collage photographs included in this book which are scattered sparingly throughout its pages. A cohesive theme was designed in this poetry book in hopes of creating a body of work that really tries to embody the state of one's heart and soul when in deep connection with others.
