Tucked away in the Appalachian mountains stirs a small town where old gods and creatures with long forgotten names live frighteningly entangled with the humans who call it home. Quick. Take the clawed hand of your guide, slip into the skins of the town’s inhabitants, and let this eerie collection of folk horror poetry ensnare you— and awaken you to the coming rapture of the world.
Multi-award winning poet Alba V Sarria debuts a folk horror collection spoken through the unusual eyes of 2nd and 1st person that weave together a spell-binding hymn for creatures monstrously divine. This is a read for a lone dark night.
"Lyric prose weaving into the shape of beasts— the reason your Appalachian mamaw tells you not to look into the woods after dark. For everyone who has ever loved a monster and prayed it would love you back. Absolutely beautiful." —Andrew Joseph White, New York Times Bestselling author of HELL FOLLOWED WITH US and THE SPIRIT BARES ITS TEETH
"Alba V Sarria’s NIGHT LIFE is folk horror distilled down to its rawest, most primal element: a knowing that doesn’t exist outside the backwoods, byways, and those places forgotten by time and feared by man. There is love and death and worship bound up in Sarria’s quietly fierce poetry. Bloody and haunting, this collection is perfect for anyone who hears whispers in the forest, feels eyes on them in the night, or shies away from dark waters’ touch.” —Siggy Chambers, author of THE BINDING OF BLOOM MOUNTAIN
“Haunting, intricate, and steeped in rich folklore. Sarria weaves an intoxicating fever dream of a tale that will leave you hungry for more." —Sophia Slade, bestselling author of NIGHTSTRIDER and VALKYRIE
"Reading NIGHT LIFE is like stepping into another world. Equal parts stunning and haunting, Sarria's poetry lingers long after you've finished reading. If you only pick up one collection this Autumn, make sure it's NIGHT LIFE." —Elou Carroll, Editor-in-Chief of Crow & Cross Keys.
