Ladies from Hell by Keith Roberts Pdf

Ladies from Hell contains five long stories. "The Shack at Great Cross Halt" describes a Britain dominated by motorways, juggernauts and a tyranny, in which the unfortunates of society eke out a miserable existence scavenging items that fall off lorries. "The Ministry of Children" shows comprehensive schools having become terrifying battlegrounds dominated by vicious gangs. "The Big Fans" concerns an experiment in wind-powered electricity which accidentally unleashes an apocalyptic storm of effects. "Our Lady of Destruction" ironically depicts a future in which a Stalinist British government taxes 'non-productive' people (i.e. artists) at over 100% and assigns them individual Overseers to regulate their work. "Missa Privata" shows an opera singer in a communist-dominated Britain making a defiant individual gesture which will bring about her own ruin. These are not stories of spaceships and alien worlds; rather they are studies of imminent social change, written out of passionate concern about the directions in which our society may be heading - stories, in fact, in the great Orwellian tradition. Most importantly, they are stories about people: believable, defiant individuals struggling against oppressive forces.

The Woman From Hell by Su Luoluo Pdf

Wanda Lane failed to warm Theo Grant’s heart despite being with him for three years. After experiencing so much pain and suffering plenty of humiliation and injustice in marriage, she resolutely decided to let go. She handed him a divorce agreement. “Since there’s no love between us, let’s get a divorce.” She did not expect a child to grow within her womb after their divorce. When her ex-husband ran into her during a pregnancy checkup, he walked over in large strides and stopped her from leaving the washroom. “Whose child is it?” “Don’t worry. It’s definitely not yours, Mr. Grant,” Wanda said with a faint smile on her face.
