Phantom Black Dogs have haunted the highways and byways of human existence for hundreds of years. This apparition, usually seen as a huge dog with glowing eyes, has appeared to people throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland as well as North and South America and it continues to appear to this day. The Black Dog has been seen and reported by witnesses ranging from farmers to professional geologists, nurses and military officers. While those with a passing knowledge of this phantom see it only as a harbinger of doom and death, the lore surrounding this fascinating creature is more nuanced. The Phantom Black Dog has a long tradition of protecting travelers, for instance, and is known for its solemn stare and awareness of the witness. Phantom Black Dogs takes the reader on a journey that begins with defining the apparition and then moves on to explore its history, the locations where it can be found, aspects of high strangeness that surround the phantom, and theories about the manifestation of the Black Dog. Whether the apparition is viewed with terror or fascination, the Phantom Black Dog is a subject which will intrigue any reader interested in the paranormal.

Set in late 1980s Europe at the time of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Black Dogs is the intimate story of the crumbling of Bernard and June Tremaine’s marriage, as witnessed by their son-in-law, Jeremy, who seeks to comprehend how their deep love could be defeated by ideological differences that seem irreconcilable. In writing June’s memoirs, Jeremy is led back to a moment, that was, for June, as devastating and irreversible in its consequences as the changes sweeping Europe in Jeremy’s own time. Ian McEwan weaves the sinister reality of civilization’s darkest moods—its black dogs—with the tensions that both create love and destroy it.

With almost 5 million copies sold 60 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic. Enriched by Jules Feiffer’s splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster’s offbeat fantasy are as beguiling as ever. “Comes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too.” --Phillip Pullman For Milo, everything’s a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he’s got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason. Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it’s exciting beyond his wildest dreams!
