The ultimate digestion of insecurity in a very strange hotelA hard-hitting fairground fever-dreamThe new king of the maggots and bloody piano keysA foul-mouthed talking mockingbird in American suburbiaA bizarre crime caper at what may just be the end of the worldAnd a chilling supernatural brush with a very badly made clay owlJohn Travis’s writing blurs between genres, rooted in many but coming with his own unique style. His stories are weird, subtle, grotesque, emotional, intelligent, human and surreal, existing in an area somewhere between horror and outsider art. Reading them, one gets the feeling that they are connected to both British horror writing and to more experimental and unusual threads as you explore the quiet backwarters of life in the UK and elsewhere, blended with wild psychological mayhem and terrifying supernatural happenings. This volume collects 16 stories, several never before published. Each is distinctive and individual, and together they form a spectacular example of British Slipstream writing.
