Description
A chilling collection of stories explores what happens when the world begins to come apart—quietly at first, then with escalating dread. In one tale, a father abducts his little daughter and disappears into a house where the search for her becomes a haunting obsession, while other narratives follow artists and observers who pursue “silence” and control through increasingly gruesome means. Across these Tell-Tale Heart–esque premises, the book probes obsession, moral collapse, and the uncanny ways guilt and fear can distort perception. Brian Evenson’s spare, lyrical style and razor-edged psychological intensity turn domestic spaces into stages for horror, leaving readers unsettled by how easily love, violence, and sanity can unravel.
