By the Hand of Men by Irwin Silva A doctor bent on creating life under his own image; to prove to the world that there is no God; only men and science! Creating life from the parts of dead men – which becomes his downfall – a monster to look and resemble men, with great strength, but his lack of understanding makes the monster unpredictable and dangerous, causing the death of both man and monster. Life ends for the first doctor, but begins again when a colleague who studies and believes in the same idea, and has learned from the great doctor, steps into the picture and follows his lead. But unknown to the doctor, the new body parts carry a curse. A dangerous curse, the price death – when the moon is full and the wolf bane blooms, a terror unlike no other walks among men unnoticed.

An innovative study of two of England’s most popular, controversial, and influential writers, Father and Son breaks new ground in examining the relationship between Kingsley Amis and his son, Martin Amis. Through intertextual readings of their essays and novels, Gavin Keulks examines how the Amises’ work negotiated the boundaries of their personal relationship while claiming territory in the literary debate between mimesis and modernist aesthetics. Theirs was a battle over the nature of reality itself, a twentieth-century realism war conducted by loving family members and rival, antithetical writers. Keulks argues that the Amises’ relationship functioned as a source of literary inspiration and that their work illuminates many of the structural and stylistic shifts that have characterized the British novel since 1950.
