Story
Prima di partire per il Messico, dal quale non avrebbe fatto ritorno, "Bitter" Bierce lasciò dietro di sé la fama di intransigente critico dei suoi tempi e più di novanta racconti, perfetta espressione del suo geniro satirico. Questa raccolta contiene: "Accadde al ponte di Owl Creek" e "Il maestro di Muxon". Clifton Fadiman dice di lui: "Rimarrà per sempre uno dei più grandi testimoni, uno dei critici più intransigenti, colui che ha dato la forma definitiva a più di un genere letterario". Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914) è un autore capitale della letteratura americana.

Story
"Il maestro di Moxon" è un racconto breve ma ricco di suggestioni. Protagonisti sono Moxon, inventore e filosofo dilettante, e la sua creatura meccanica: un automa giocatore di scacchi. Lo spunto narrativo parte dal saggio di E. A. Poe "Il giocatore di scacchi di Maelzel" in cui lo scrittore smaschera un falso automa scacchista detto Il Turco che era diventato famoso in Europa e negli Stati Uniti. Ma "Bitter Bierce" manipola la materia a suo modo.

Story
"Accadde al ponte di Owl Creek" è un racconto breve ambientato durante la guerra Civile americana. Un fatto di cronaca, al ponte sull'Owl Creek è del 1891, e ci cala direttamente nel cuore del trauma originario. Ne è protagonista Peyton Fahrquhar, un piantatore ardente sudista e secessionista, proprietario di molti schiavi, che allo scoppio della guerra non aveva potuto arruolarsi nell’esercito confederato. Significativo che l'autore si rifiuti di dirci il perché, dichiarando semplicemente che non è necessario riferire le cause impedienti.

Story
Ambrose Bierce ist 71 Jahre alt, als er, unter bis heute nicht geklärten Umständen, 1913 in Mexiko verschwindet, um nie wieder aufzutauchen. Er hatte viele Feinde, wofür er auch selbst eine Menge getan hat. Seine scharfe Feder, mit der er als Journalist und Autor zu Werke ging, war gefürchtet. Er galt als scharfzüngiger Satiriker und streitsüchtiger Misanthrop. Blättert man durch diverse Biografien über ihn, findet man darin reichlich Bestätigung. Aber er war noch mehr als nur ein streitbarer Charakter: Er war auch ein Meister des Erzählens und ein äußerst scharfsichtiger Beobachter der Dinge um ihn her.

Welcome to the incredible world of Ambrose Bierce! A true master of the weird, eccentric, macabre and even grotesque horror story. The 24 tales in this collection are often deceptively simple, needing the reader to re-evaluate what has transpired and realizing that the pieces of the puzzle - often quite dreamlike - makes for something bigger and more sinister than just the finished work.

Story
Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce (1842 - circa 1914) was a short story writer, journalist, poet, and Civil War veteran. Bierce wrote realistically of the terrible things he had seen in the Civil War in stories like "The Affair at Coulter's Notch", making him a pioneer of the psychological horror story. In this tale, a Captain Coulter leads the way in a fierce battle between Federal and Confederate forces to capture a house. After the battle, a horrible scene is revealed. The theme of "Coulter's Notch" is to question the nature of war and highlight the sacrifice of the individual.

Story
Ambrose Bierce, American Civil War veteran, poet, essayist, and short story writer was known as ‘Bitter Bierce’ for his caustic sense of humour and biting wit. In his short story, "One Summer Night", Bierce lives up to his nickname. The story centers around a man who has been buried alive, as well as a pair of medical students and a cemetery caretaker who are about to unwittingly dig him up. This short and effective tale is full of intriguing characters, dark humor, and unexpected turns and is a great example of the severely underrated Ambrose Bierce’s writing.

But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is – unless she betrays the man she loves.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
