The Glass (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Glass is a contemporary Gothic Horror ghost story. Christopher Higson procures an ornate, cheval-glass mirror amongst the cultural carrion at a house clearance on the ancient and heirless Bradley Estate, a gift for his wife, Maria, to help save their dying marriage. Their young son, William, caught in the crossfire in the battle between his parents, suddenly finds an imaginary friend, Jenny, and the only time he sees her is in the mirror. Amongst the blood and broken glass, Christopher and Maria try to save their marriage, and themselves, as they discover the horrible truth about William's imaginary friend.

Does anyone know the damage we inflict upon our children? Innocently or deliberately, ignorantly or purposefully, does anyone see anything more than themselves in a mirror? There is no horror except that which we create for ourselves

Autorenporträt

Carl Long is an an author, screenwriter, playwright and musician based in the UK. He was born in Norwich, Norfolk, in 1983, the eldest of twins.

His writing crosses genres. Gothic, Horror, Science Fiction, Fantasy and Literary. In 2009, he quit full-time work to study English Literature at the University of East Anglia. A move he made for two reasons. One, to expose himself to writers and works he may never have come across independently. Two, to become a better writer. He believes that if one learns to deconstruct, one simultaneously, and conversely, learns how to construct. He even managed a year of undergraduate philosophy, but he escaped unharmed.

He have also flown planes, been a radio DJ, freelance journalist, portrait artist, bass player and performance poet (that one is not remembered so fondly). He spends his working days masquerading as a Paraplanner, writing financial reports. Which is as interesting as it sounds.

The inspiration for the Glass came from a nightmare he had in 2009, where he dreamt the final scene, kind of, and subsequently back engineered a story.

Last year, he was nominated for the Best Uncle Award by my nieces. He didn't win.
