Σκοτεινά οράματα #3
Στα όρια του φόβου
Πολλοί συγγραφείς και αναγνώστες νομίζουν ότι σκοπός της ιστορίας τρόμου είναι να καθυποτάξει τον αναγνώστη προκαλώντας του απανωτά σοκ. Όμως το σοκ είναι μια φιλεύσπλαχνη εμπειρία: είναι ένας κλονισμός από τον οποίο οι περισσότεροι άνθωποι θα συνέλθουν σχεδόν αμέσως.

About the author
Robert Bloch
1,092 books1,287 followersRobert Albert Bloch was a prolific American writer. He was the son of Raphael "Ray" Bloch (1884, Chicago-1952, Chicago), a bank cashier, and his wife Stella Loeb (1880, Attica, Indiana-1944, Milwaukee, WI), a social worker, both of German-Jewish descent.
Bloch wrote hundreds of short stories and over twenty novels, usually crime fiction, science fiction, and, perhaps most influentially, horror fiction (Psycho). He was one of the youngest members of the Lovecraft Circle; Lovecraft was Bloch's mentor and one of the first to seriously encourage his talent.
He was a contributor to pulp magazines such as Weird Tales in his early career, and was also a prolific screenwriter. He was the recipient of the Hugo Award (for his story "That Hell-Bound Train"), the Bram Stoker Award, and the World Fantasy Award. He served a term as president of the Mystery Writers of America.
Robert Bloch was also a major contributor to science fiction fanzines and fandom in general. In the 1940s, he created the humorous character Lefty Feep in a story for Fantastic Adventures. He also worked for a time in local vaudeville, and tried to break into writing for nationally-known performers. He was a good friend of the science fiction writer Stanley G. Weinbaum. In the 1960's, he wrote 3 stories for Star Trek.

Βιβλίο που διάβασα τον Ιούνη. Στο σύνολό του μου άρεσε περισσότερο κι από αυτό που περίμενα. Νομίζω ότι οι περισσότεροι φαν του είδους θα βρουν ένα αρκετά μεγάλο ποσοστό istori;vn που επίσης να τους αρέσουν.
Αυτός που δε μου έμεινε καθόλου ήταν ο Staub, αντιθέτως μου έμειναν για τα καλά οι 3 από τις 4 ιστορίες του Bloch.

Μόνο τα διηγήματα του πρώτου στη σειρά (Robert Bloch) μου άρεσαν. Όταν το πήρα ήξερα μόνο τον Straub και περίμενα ότι θα μου αρέσουν οι δικές του ιστορίες, αλλά γενικά όλο το βιβλίο πέρασε και δεν ακούμπησε, ήδη δεν θυμάμαι τίποτα.

ίσως το πιο αδύναμο της σειράς μα τα δύο προηγούμενα και οι κυρίες του τρόμου σε κάνουν να το παραβλέπεις
έχει κάποιες δυνατές στιγμές, μα τα άλλα έθεσαν τον πήχη πολύ ψηλά
