Description
Step into a darkly luminous world where the dead refuse to stay still. This surreal collection moves through radical essays, haunting poems, and fabulous stories, following figures like a skeleton newly unbound—liberated by the absence of flesh and animated by a strange, ecstatic joy. Across settings that range from the deep South to modern Japan, the book braids death, transformation, and the grotesque into visions that feel both unsettling and strangely beautiful. With Leonora Carrington’s unmistakable, dream-logic style, it turns putrefaction and mortality into art—inviting readers to confront the body, the imagination, and the mysteries of freedom beyond the grave.
