Beskrivelse
Dark. Lush. Disturbing. Four carnal and subversive stories, with characters haunted by their cravings for crimson gore...through need...a gruesome desire for retribution...or their own chilling temperaments. Elegantly-crafted, each of these eerie tales will produce a lurid shudder at the deepest, most intimate level of recognition. In "Guillotine," a dead girl keeps a macabre post-mortem date with her lusty executioner. The dignified woman-hater in "The Night of DeLyria" carries out his grisly orders to the full, then reels with the psychic consequences. In "The Glass Arcade," jealousy drives an action that relentlessly leads to murders. And a girl held in sexual bondage makes a deal with her supernatural demon lover in "Rue Ravender's Blood Wedding." Marcelle Thi baux's stories have been published in Grand Central Noir, Dogzplot, Urban Fantasy, Literal Latt , Karamu, Cream City Review, decomP, Keeping the Edge, The Delmarva Review and elsewhere. She has written about women from St. Margit of Hungary to Charlotte Bront . Her books on medieval themes include The Stag of Love: The Chase in Medieval Literature. Recipient of a Pen & Brush Club Award for her stories, Thi baux was nominated for a Pushcart Prize. She lives in New York City.
