Some H. P. Lovecraft short stories.
Lovecraft is excellent for the kindle. For one, his paragraphs just go on and on. Easy to lose your place but can use a large font on the kindle. Also his vocabulary is a tinsy bit much. The kindle dictionary function finally coming in handy.

The Beast in the Cave
Gets lost in a cave and by quick luck kills a strange manlike creature. The End.

The Alchemist
The last scion of a noble family discovers a secret passage in his huge gothic castle and finds a warlock that has lived for centuries apparently just so he can kill every member of the family at the age of 32 in revenge for the murder of his father. Guy kills warlock. The end.

The Tomb
A man who has visions, speaks to the dead, etc, becomes obsessed with the tomb of a formerly wealthy but now all deceased family. Eventually imagines he goes back in time to the day the mansion burns down. Goes mad. The end.

Dagon
Lost at sea, finds remnants of an ancient civilization of monsterous creatures. Sees that actually at least one is still alive. Goes mad. The end.

A Reminiscence of Dr. Samuel Johnson
This hardly made sense to me. It had no plot at all really. I was using the text to speech kindle function in the car though. Maybe I missed a sentence or two that constituted something actually happening.

Sweet Ermengarde
Or, the Heart of a Country Girl
Lighthearted thrown together spoof. Published 26 years after it was written.

Lovecraft's use of language makes up for serious deficits in these early stories. There's little plot. No character development. Virtually no dialogue ...which gives it such a lonely feeling. And then I know about the actual man... I hope he wasn't as miserable as he appeared to have been...

"Circumlocution". A word I learned from Lovecraft on the kindle. Unfortunately defines these stories. But doesn't it always, sort of, for writers? Without excellent "circumlocution" would we really ever have much?
