\'Trust me: you want to read this. It\'s the queer horror book of your dreams\' Kirsty Logan\'The short, twisted tales collected in Leon Craig\'s Parallel Hells have a laconic elegance that\'s both chilling and pleasurable\' Financial TimesIn this deliciously strange debut collection, Leon Craig draws on folklore and gothic horror in refreshingly inventive ways to explore queer identity, love, power and the complicated nature of being human.In the thirteen darkly audacious stories of Parallel Hells we meet a golem, made of clay, learning that its powers far exceed its Creator\'s expectations; a ruined mansion which grants the secret wishes of a group of revellers and a notorious murderer who discovers her Viking husband is not what he seems.Asta is an ancient being who feasts on the shame of contemporary Londoners, who now, beyond anything, wishes only to fit in with a group of friends they will long outlive. An Oxford historian, in bitter competition with the rest of her faculty members, discovers an ancient tome whose sinister contents might solve her problems. Livia orchestrates a Satanic mass to distract herself from a recently remembered trauma and two lovers must resolve their differences in order to defy a lethal curse.\'A glorious collection of short stories that reads as if Edgar Allan Poe and Shirley Jackson had a little queer baby\' Big Issue\'Impressive... Read Parallel Hells for a different take on vampires, demons and monsters you never knew existed... Craig\'s worlds appear effortless\' Mslexia Σελίδες: 224, Έτος Έκδοσης: 2022, Διαστάσεις: 15.2x15.2cm
