And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Христова ночь (Предание) — сказка русского писателя Михаила Салтыкова-Щедрина впервые появилась в печати в 1886 году в №245 "Русских ведомостей". Вместе с "Христовой ночью" в этом номере была впервые напечатана и сказка "Путём-дорогою". Эта сказка посвящена проблемам нравственности (или морали). Для большей доходчивости (до сознания широкого круга читателей) Салтыков-Щедрин использует евангельскую притчу о предательстве Иуды и воскресении Христа (а также сюжет легенды об Агасфере, «Вечном Жиде») в форме христианской проповеди.

The God of His Fathers: Tales of The Klondyke. It was written by Jack London in the 1919 year. As a young man in the summer of 1897, Jack London joined the Klondike gold rush.

With remarkable insight and unflinching realism, London describes the punishing adversity that awaited men in the brutal, frozen expanses of the Yukon, and the extreme tactics these adventurers and travelers adopted to survive.

A doctor who treats a person afflicted with leprosy using macabre methods is an unstable physician. Although Rimel admitted that he wrote the story himself and Lovecraft only made stylistic corrections, the work is characterized by the very distinct style of the latter. Even though the writer from Providence congratulated his junior colleague on the text and claimed to have made only minor corrections, it could have been a typical courtesy on his part. A supporter of the hypothesis of Lovecraft's authorship is that Rimel did not create anything else in a similar style.
