Tales of Vampires & Werewolves

Jan Nepomuk Neruda (Czech: [ˈjan ˈnɛpomuk ˈnɛruda]; 9 July 1834 – 22 August 1891) was a Czech journalist, writer and poet, one of the most prominent representatives of Czech Realism and a member of "the May school".

The Vampire

Arabesky jsou sbírka krátkých povídek, které zachycují každodenní život v Praze 19. století, konkrétně v Malé Straně. Prostřednictvím dojemných, často humorných či melancholických záběrů do života obyčejných lidí, Jan Neruda zkoumá malé radosti a tragédie, odrážející jejich boje, naděje a touhy po štěstí, lásce a uznání. S realistickým stylem a hlubokou empatií Neruda zachycuje podstatu měnící se společnosti své doby, nabízející intimní a kritický pohled na život těch, kteří obývají jeho město. Tato sbírka je oslavou lidskosti a zdůrazňuje, jak i v nejobyčejnějších chvílích lze nalézt krásu a hloubku. Nerudova schopnost vytvářet živé a autentické, často komické nebo tragikomické postavy činí z Arabesek nadčasové dílo, které stále rezonuje s čtenáři.

Angstzweet en kippenvel

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  The excursion steamer brought us from Constantinople to the shore of the island of Prinkipo and we disembarked. The number of passengers was not large. There was one Polish family, a father, a mother, a daughter and her bridegroom, and then we two. Oh, yes, I must not forget that when we were already on the wooden bridge which crosses the Golden Horn to Constantinople, a Greek, a rather youthful man, joined us. He was probably an artist, judging by the portfolio he carried under his arm. Long black locks floated to his shoulders, his face was pale, and his black eyes were deeply set in their sockets. From the first moment he interested me, especially for his obligingness and for his knowledge of local conditions. But he talked too much, and I then turned away from him.

Whitehead: Gerald Canevin und die schwarze Beste Er spürte einen heftigen Schlag. Blut schoss zeitgleich aus Mund und Nasenöffnung. Vor seinen Augen blitzen fast tausend Sterne auf. Er torkelte vorwärts, wurde von zwei Klauen gepackt und zu Boden geschleudert. Barker und die Schwester waren weg. Verschwunden. Alles verlor sich in einem einzigen Gewirr aus Stille. Ethan warf seine Arme wie ein Ertrinkender um sich, suchte nach Halt, wo es keinen gab. „Du bist der letzte“, winselte der Tätowierte. „Hörst du. Der Letzte und der Anfang...“
