About this title

Synopsis:

Leprosy. Melded bones. Even "hornism" (the phenomenon of having a horn growing out of the human body). All are on display in Boy of Bone, dramatized and illustrated in jaw-dropping and perhaps most surprisingly, life-affirming fashion. With a remarkable new voice, K. R. Sands' storytelling combines the thrill of the best horror stories with the depth of classic literature. Jon Lezinsky's masterly, multitextured illustrations provide a compelling visual and emotional dimension. The result is a chilling, atmospheric work that pushes the reader's imagination to new limits.

Review:

"K. R. Sands's Boy of Bone, with illustrations by Jon Lezinsky, is a cabinet of curiosities, its fictional stories inspired by the people whose various body parts have been donated to the Mutter Museum of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia. . . .What could be a cheap, creepy trick transcends into moving (if also creepy) stories." --Elissa Schappell, Vanity Fair
