This collection features tormented individuals who play out their doom in various odd little towns, as well as in dark sectors frequented by sinister and often blackly comical eccentrics. The cycle of narratives that includes the title work of this collection, for instance, introduces readers to a freakish community of artists who encounter demonic perils that ultimately engulf their lives. These are selected examples of the forbidding array of persons and places that compose the mesmerizing fiction of Thomas Ligotti.

A generous serving of Edgar Allan Poe, a dash of Franz Kafka, a smidgen of Robert Aickman: These comprise the components in the cauldron of creativity of Thomas Ligotti.  . . . His descriptive powers are mesmerizing.   —Hellnotes

Thomas Ligotti has won the Bram Stoker award and World Fantasy Award four times respectively for his unique horror fiction. His other books includeGrimscribe,My Work Is Not Yet Done,The Nightmare Factory,Nocturary, and The Shadow at the Bottom of the World.He lives in Florida.
