Bøker av Tom Ruffles

When pure vanilla extract and psoriatic arthritis mix with a mother's love in a hoarded house, can an invisible attention deficit disorder cause a good woman to lose track of time? Security officer Ruffles is hiding in the garage. He was writing a fairy tale when the story started releasing love hormones and turned his life into a comedy of errors ... In families with too many handicaps, it can be a struggle to find the kitchen. That's why there's a house in Fremont where one boy packs blueberry pancakes in his pockets in case John or Jayne Wayne forget to make dinner ... Humor and satire can depend on bad news and this quirky tragicomedy looks into it. There's an underwear mystery at the heart of the matter and some random impulse buying did also occur while we surveyed our limited faculties. But by and by, after it was over, we never would forget it.

This work focuses on film depictions of survival after death, from meetings with the ghost of Elvis to AIDS-related ghosts: apparitions, hauntings, mediumship, representations of heaven, angels, near-death experiences, possession, poltergeists, and all the other ways in which the living interact with the dead on screen.
