And when Grant Kessler moves into town Morgan isn't a bit shy in letting the man know how much he wants him. While the attraction is mutual, Grant pushes Morgan away. Like the rest of the world he can't see past Morgan's odd behaviors Then Morgan shows Grant how light lets you see but it also leaves you blind. And once Grant opens his eyes, he loses his heart to the beautiful enigma of a man who changes the course of his life.

The Absence of Light is a dark prose novel written by 25-year-old J. Daniel Stone. The story involves two groups of friends--one group a metal band and the other a clan of ghost hunters--who clash after a night of rocking out in a seedy downtown club in NYC. With his fascinating ability for mapping out interesting characters, and a natural ability at setting a gloomy mood, Stone successfully takes his readers through the problems that everyday people face within the boondocks via a small Pennsylvania mining town dusted in anthracite, to the frightening throes of the ever-changing face of New York City with an authenticity that is rarely found in first novels. His words will resonate like a hangover long after you read them.

An immediate and critically acclaimed bestseller in France, This Blinding Absence of Light is the latest work by internationally renowned author Tahar Ben Jelloun, the first North African winner of the Prix Goncourt and winner of the Prix Mahgreb. Crafting real life events into narrative fiction, Ben Jelloun reveals the horrific story of the desert concentration camps in which King Hassan II of Morocco held his political enemies in underground cells with no light and only enough food and water to keep them lingering on the edge of death. Working closely with one of the survivors, Ben Jelloun narrates the story in the simplest of language and delivers a shocking novel that explores both the limitlessness of inhumanity and the impossible endurance of the human will.

For Bataille, the absence of myth had itself become the myth of the modern age. In a world that had lost the secret of its cohesion, Bataille saw surrealism as both a symptom and a beginning of an attempt to address this loss. His writings on this theme are the result of a profound reflection in the wake of World War Two. The Absence of Myth is the most incisive study yet made of surrealism, insisting on its importance as a cultural and social phenomenon with far-reaching consequences. Clarifying Bataille's links with the surrealist movement, and throwing revealing light on his complex and greatly misunderstood relationship with Andre Breton, The Absence of Myth shows Bataille to be a much more radical figure than his postmodernist devotees would have us believe: a man who continually tried to extend Marxist social theory; a pessimistic thinker, but one as far removed from nihilism as can be.

A poignant memoir of loss, and an inspirational guide to healing after a loved one’s sudden death or suicide. When a loved one dies suddenly, at a young age, or by suicide, families and friends are often left in shock-riddled grief. This shock—and the stigmatized feelings that sometimes accompany such tragedies—can isolate the bereaved and stall their healing, even as they yearn to connect with others. Abiding Light is a four-generation testimony-rich resource for those grieving this kind of loss and for the communities that support them. It can be read alone or in a group, as it serves as a companion and fosters compassionate care and conversation through deep grief. Simply through reading the personal stories within Abiding Light, empathy and sympathy—given space and time—can seed courage and deeper connection through patience and conversation.
