DOWNLOAD EBOOKSpider is gaunt, threadbare, unnerved by everything from his landlady to the smell of gas. He tells us his story in a storm of beautiful language that slowly reveals itself as a fiendishly layered construction of truth and illusion. With echoes of Beckett, Poe, and Paul Bowles, Spider is a tale of horror and madness, storytelling and skepticism, a novel whose dizzying style lays bare the deepest layers of subconscious terror.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTwo dogs, matey Mate, a Jack Russell cross and Milldred a boxer, have to prevent a power-mad crustacean from overturning the world for his own evil intentions. The dogs apparently are the only one's capable of preventing this from happening. This is one of many adventures the dogs become embroiled in.

A Bone with unknown powers and capabilities has shown up to persuade them to prevent a catastrophe of epic proportions from happening. It would lead to a world that would be changed forever. The dogs find it hard to accept what is expected of them and find it that much harder to believe that they are in communication with a Bone. Matey Mate with all his cunning and know-how is relied on to set a plan into action to save the day while Milldred is, simply put, a clumsy galloopa. Between them, odd as it seems, make a good team.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Fifteen years after its first publication, Spider Eaters remains my go-to memoir about coming of age during the Mao years. Rae Yang's work is notable for its reflectiveness, complexity, psychological insight, and unflinching honesty. I commend this riveting work to a generation of readers for whom the cultural Revolution is now of 'merely' historical interest."—Gail Hershatter, University of California, Santa Cruz "By oscillating between scenes that are bland in their matter-of-fact concreteness and ones that are almost unbelievable in their nightmarish cruelty and complexity, Rae Yang skillfully evokes the bizarre and contradictory 'revolutionary' world in which she grew up in Mao's China. Spider Eaters is a reminder of what a traumatic history the Chinese people have undergone this century and that a country's past—even when many would rather forget it—always lives irrevocably on within those who experienced it."—Orville Schell, author of Mandate of Heaven "How can we expect anyone to know the United States without understanding the effect the Sixties had on all of us? Similarly, how can we know China without comprehending the impact the Sixties and the Cultural Revolution had on its politics, culture, and people? Rae Yang's Spider Eaters goes far in building that understanding. It is a gripping memoir."—Lisa See, author of On Gold Mountain
