Ron Terranova Bücher

Dark, cynical, surreal and sardonically funny, The Red Wing Chronicles is a unique hybrid of a book. Narrated from the point of view of a man sinking into the abyss as he reflects upon his traumatic life and a childhood of sickness and abuse, while haunted by the ghost of a sadistic father. Dark memories are unleashed, and questions and reflections abound regarding the fragile, illusory nature of memory, the tenuousness of sanity, the hypocrisy of authority and the subjectivity of morality. Part memoir, part philosophical rant in a stream of consciousness frenzy, this is the story of one man’s tightrope walk between madness and memory while wearing and being guided by the greatest pair of shoes ever cobbled.

In the shadow of Poe and the memory of Lovecraft, the modern day dark romanticist, Ron Terranova, hits all the marks with the stories in this collection: A young boy who discovers Night's dark secret. ("That Good Night") A Victorian photographer with post mortem clientele. ("Post Mortem Photography") A unique tavern where all are welcome- even the dead. ("Diversity") A dreadlocked hitman with a taste for Art Deco who discovers he is not who he thinks he is. ("Treading On Hallowed Ground") A niece and nephew who inherit a strange riddle in a box from their mysterious uncle. ("The Riddle Of Norman")
