The Amusements of Jan Steen


Book Description

The Dutch painter Jan Steen (1626-1679) has long enjoyed a reputation for his dissolute life, redeemed only by a keen eye for the follies of his contemporaries and an exquisite ability to capture his observations in paint. Steen's paintings of unruly households, rambunctious revels, and wily seductresses have come to define our image of the delicious and immoral excesses of the Golden Age. But rather than simply recording the illicit pleasures of Dutch burghers and peasants, Steen transformed them into ambitious genre paintings that rival the peasant epics of Bruegel the Elder and jest with the genteel idylls of Vermeer and Terborch. By placing Steen within Dutch society and culture of the seventeenth century, Mariet Westermann shows how the contradictions and parallels between his life and his art were essential to his innovative achievements. In a detailed analysis of his career and audience, she suggests how Steen became a comic painter and why his pictures appealed to prosperous urban connoisseurs. Documented throughout with seventeenth-century jokes, poems, and plays, The Amusements of Jan Steen gives the first full account of Steen's creative relationship to comic literature and performance.







Assassin's Blood


Book Description

Most nights you'll find me at the pub, playing guitar in a band with my fae friends and drinking beer. But tonight, I'm stalking an ice-cold fae assassin. I'm on a mission to avenge my murdered friend. I'm only half fae, but my lack of magic won't stop me. When I'm caught spying in the assassins' stronghold, they give me a choice, according to their ancient custom: become one of them or die. As if that isn't sucky enough, my new instructor, Ash, is the beautiful, cold-eyed killer I followed here. But the longer I'm with him, the more he intrigues me. Now my acting skills are facing their greatest challenge: convincing my brooding instructor that I'm a happy little recruit, while working to bring down the assassins' guild from the inside. That's a hell of a job, but my survival depends on it.




Assassin's Dagger


Book Description

Most estranged fathers would send an email. Mine sends a zombie. The infamous dagger known as the Thief of Souls is now mine. Its seductive power comes with a catch-the blade is determined to control me, and I'm losing the battle. Ash wants to free me from its clutches. He's an ice-cold fae assassin who bizarrely seems to care for me, but can I trust his motives? A little voice inside me is screaming yes, but I can't even trust my own thoughts anymore. So of course dear old Dad picks this moment to crawl out of whatever hole he's been hiding in for the last five years. He's a dangerous necromancer, and he wants the dagger, but maybe I can use him. Because he's the key to what I want most in all the world-if I can bring myself to pay the price.
