Paperback. Condition: New. "Though the four novellas comprising Dead Writers vary tremendously in style and subject matter, they all evoke a delicious, spine-tingling sense of dread. These tales take readers on a head spinning journey through the inner workings of a cruel colonial school, all the way to a creepy contemporary vacation rental, never losing sight of the selfish, unscrupulous, and inescapable aspects of human behaviour. This is a collection that will keep you turning pages, but that will also make you wonder: Are the pages turning you?"-Allegra Hyde, author of The Last CatastropheIn this collaborative fiction project, four writers navigate the protean concept of the "bargain" in novella-length stories. A biographer surveying the career of a "haunted" literary figure, a lovelorn journalist entering into a diabolic covenant, a tourist attempting to stay sober through her holiday travels, and a doctor's complicity in a colonial scandal: These horror-inflected offerings of existential dread, tainted pasts, and uncertain futures serve as an unbalancing reminder that there is always a high price to pay for the corruption of the soul.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. New York City in 1966 is awash in destitution, crime, and economic segregation. The National Origins Formula quota limits have just been repealed, leading to unprecedented levels of immigration to America. The Julius "sip-in," a Gay Liberation protest against state laws preventing bars from serving homosexuals, has owners concerned about who they admit into their establishments. Danica Klimmeck, a painter and life model recently arrived in the country, sees an opportunity to escape a moneyless existence when her ex-husband John Slodeth bequeaths her the Aleph Null, a burlesque club serving the gay community in defiance of the Liquor Authority. Between managing unruly dancers and learning business administration on the fly, Danica rekindles her love of painting, becoming a beloved rising talent in Pop Art, which allows her to escape from the chaos of the city. Her upward trajectory is reined in when she discovers that small-town life is not as easy as it seems, thanks to needy neighbours and an alcoholic cowboy named Tenn. And neither the Aleph Null, nor the dead and buried John Slodeth, seem to want to stay where she left them behind in New York City.Read the first two chapters!
