Description
Nathan Ballingrud's award-winning collection, *North American Lake Monsters*, reinvents the horror tradition with nine supernatural-spiked, literary tales. These stories delve into the damaged psyches of working-class Americans, particularly in the South, exploring themes of guilt, frustration, and the shocking costs of transformation. Ballingrud's writing, compared to literary giants like Raymond Carver and Denis Johnson, offers a distinctly twenty-first-century awareness of a world as damaged as its characters.
