Fred the Head
Author: Posner
Publisher: Strident Publishing
ISBN: 1906775702
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
In March 1971 an off-duty special police constable found the macabre remains of a body...The skull, protruding from the ground, revealed the skeleton of a man who had been violently murdered and buried in a shallow grave by the river Trent in Staffordshire. The naked body, except for a pair of pink socks and a wedding ring, yielded little evidence and to this day has resisted all police efforts and appeals to the public to identify him. It remains an unsolved murder of an unknown man who, for want of a better name, is called Fred the Head.Michael Posner has been a court reporter for over 40 years and is well qualified to tell the story. Using police sources and pictures, he relates what is known about Fred, as well as other incidents of murders that have never been resolved. (Perhaps you'll have your own theories by the time you reach the last page.)

Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
Many films and novels defy our ability to make sense of the plot. While puzzling storytelling, strange incongruities, inviting enigmas and persistent ambiguities have been central to the effects of many literary and cinematic traditions, a great deal of contemporary films and television series bring such qualities to the mainstream—but wherein lies the attractiveness of perplexing works of fiction? This collected volume offers the first comprehensive, multidisciplinary, and trans-medial approach to the question of cognitive challenge in narrative art, bringing together psychological, philosophical, formal-historical, and empirical perspectives from leading scholars across these fields.
