Robert E. Howard
The stories are humorously written as if told by Breckinridge Elkins, a hillbilly with no schooling. He and his kin live in the Humboldts in Nevada. Elkins is six feet six inches tall, is as strong as a grizzly bear. He can be just as bad tempered if riled. And there is a lot to rile him, especially his relatives.

Dick Donovan
Before Sherlock Holmes there was Dick Donovan. The name struck terror into the hearts of thieves, murderers, fences, swindlers and criminals of every class, and his exploits gave delight to millions worldwide from 1888 onwards. This second volume of the Dick Donovan adventures collects three novels and a short story, written by British journalist and author of mystery and horror fiction J. E. Preston Muddock. For a time his detective stories were as popular as those of Arthur Conan Doyle.
Fred M. White
A Front of Brass is more of a detective story. The author invites readers to be real detectives. Hubert Grant bought a manor near the cliff and married Mary. It seems strange that Grants partner Paul offered an estate for a very modest price. Paul received a telegram, a message because of which his hands shook.
Thomas Hardy
A group of "local historians" of men comes together and tells each other stories about women from the past. All stories are connected with love, marriage to the wrong person and illegitimate children. This says a lot about how women looked at that time. Even those in abundance had very little influence and were often convicted of using it when they had a chance.
Fenton Ash
We are surrounded by hidden enemies many of them deadly creatures... Meet another short science fiction novel from a British writer of pulp fiction Francis Henry Frank Atkins (1847-1927), who contributed widely to the pre-sf Pulp magazines, writing at least three Lost-World novels along with much else. He wrote under the pseudonyms Frank Aubrey and Fenton Ash.
A hipopotamy żywcem się ugotowały
William S. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac
Latem 1944 roku Nowym Jorkiem wstrząsa informacja o morderstwie młody Lucien Carr śmiertelnie rani o dziesięć lat starszego Davida Kammerera. Pierwszymi, którzy się o tym dowiadują, są William Burroughs i Jack Kerouac. A hipopotamy żywcem się ugotowały to opowieść o wydarzeniach poprzedzających tę zbrodnię, a jednocześnie wczesna próba talentu artystów, którzy przeszli do historii jako czołowi przedstawiciele Beat Generation. Burroughs i Kerouac bez pruderii portretują amerykańską bohemę końca lat czterdziestych, wypełniając nowojorskie bary miłością, alkoholem, narkotykami, przemocą i niekończącymi się dysputami. To jedyna książka napisana wspólnie przez obu pisarzy. Na pojawienie się drukiem czekała ponad sześćdziesiąt lat. To jedna z tych książek, które poprzedza legenda. Zabójstwo, rękopis odrzucany przez wydawców, przechowywany jak opowiadali autorzy pod podłogą. Co ciekawe, samo morderstwo w tej młodzieńczej opowieści Burroughsa i Kerouaca zajmuje niewiele miejsca to przede wszystkim opowieść o Nowym Jorku w czasach wojny, o błąkaniu się po barach, o próbach zaciągnięcia się na statek. I wreszcie o tym, jak to jest, kiedy świetny temat literacki morderstwo przytrafia się w życiu. Justyna Sobolewska Publikacja powieści Williama S. Burroughsa i Jacka Kerouaca to wydarzenie nie tylko dlatego, że książka jest efektem połączenia sił dwóch z trzech głównych przedstawicieli Beat Generation, ale także dlatego, że to opowieść o męskiej przyjaźni, homoseksualnej obsesji i morderstwie, która zafascynowała wielu amerykańskich pisarzy. John Walsh, The Independent Tajemnica bezwzględnego morderstwa połączona z lamentem egzystencjalisty tak jakby Dashiell Hammett spotkał Alberta Camusa []. Dokument Beat Generation. Gerald Nicosia, San Francisco Chronicle Fascynujące spojrzenie się na lata kształtowania się ruchu bitników. Nick Rennison, The Sunday Times
