Daphne Du Maurier

NYRB Classics, 2008

An NYRB Original Daphne du Maurier wrote some of the most compelling and creepy novels of the twentieth century.

Trauma
Patrick Mcgrath

Knopf, 2008

Gripping, very human story
I immediately was drawn into this book. It's characters were well drawn, the plot although going back and forth in time was compelling and I didn't see the end coming. Charlie is almost heart-breaking, as he suffers through relationships in spite of being a ...

Take your editing up a notch...
I have been using entry-level NLEs (e.g. Vegas Movie Studio, Pinnacle Studio, Magix Movie Edit Pro) for about four years. Any progress in my editing skills came from the traditional 'trial and error' approach, and from learning by watching other amateur-produced movies ...

Toad Pocket Reference for Oracle (Pocket Reference (O'Reilly))
Jeff Smith, Patrick McGrath, ...

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2005

Great little references to the shortcuts you're looking for
I've used TOAD awhile now and saw there were 2 books coming out on it - this on and the TOAD handbook. This little reference is excellent. Great that it just happened to be written on the version I'm using now - 7.4. The book however is based on TOAD's core ...

The Grotesque
Patrick Mcgrath

Vintage, 1997

Deceptively complex, highly recommended
This is my first McGrath novel, so I'm not comparing it to his other work, which may explain partly why my perspective differs a little from the other reviewers here. I think they do McGrath an injustice in writing this book off as "Gothic comedy" or relatively ...

Patrick Mcgrath

Ballantine Books, 1989

How delightful to come across this writer!
Fan that I am of director David Cronenberg, I learned recently that his next film was to be an adaptation of "Spider" by David McGrath. "Who is this David McGrath?" I wondered. A look at some customer reviews on Amazon was followed by a quick trip to the local library, ...

They did so not just to improve their professional standing and win more money for research, says Patrick McGrath, but for political reasons as well. They wanted to use their new institutional connections to effect a ...
