Description
A pregnant woman is consumed by an unsettling hunger, a man is buried alive for a crime he didn’t commit, and a missing boy returns altered—each story in this collection of nine disturbing horrors turns the ordinary into something predatory. Blending Southern Gothic and Afro-Gothic sensibilities, these tales explore disquieting appetites of the body and mind, where decay, faith, and the restless dead blur into one another. With nature, religion, and the human form at the center, the book builds a creeping atmosphere of dread that lingers long after the last page. Written in a sharp, lyrical style reminiscent of the author’s acclaimed work, these stories offer a dark, intimate look at what we fear we might become.
