Song For The Unraveling Of The World

"Here be monsters. At least, they look like monsters from this angle. But you had to be just seeing things … right? Brian Evenson’s Song for the Unraveling of the World is a collection of 22 taut, troubling short stories in which the danger seems to always lurk just out of view or beyond definition. Here are indistinct terrors that grow more real (and more amused) the more you try to discount them and a horde of questions that, if we’re being honest, you would probably rather not know the answers to. It’s an unsettling experience all around – and a worthy introduction to a prolific writer who deserves many more readers."
