When the soul has been thoroughly poisoned, the body must abandon it. Everything feels unreal afterwards, but plastic heads shed no tears. Bram Stoker Award® winning author Nicole Cushing offers an excursion into the Weird, a quiet novella of a madwoman in a mad town, as an Episcopal priest grapples with the meaning of faith, reality, and if there is anything real to either of them, at the end of it all.'An intense and uncompromising literary voice.' - Rue Morgue 'I’ve never read anything quite like The Plastic Priest, and I’m delighted I have. A witty and incisive portrait of a priest beset by doubts, it mutates into a comedy of uncanny paranoia before exploding into weirdness that’s as disturbing as it’s liberating. Nicole Cushing’s tale is a stimulating challenge, and her spare precise prose is a constant pleasure.' - Ramsey Campbell Nicole Cushing is a Bram Stoker Award® winning novelist and a two-time nominee for the Shirley Jackson Award. Various reviewers have described her work as 'cerebral', 'brutal', 'transgressive', 'wickedly funny', 'taboo', 'groundbreaking' and 'mind-bending'.Her second novel, A Sick Gray Laugh (2019) was named to LitReactor’s Best Horror Novels of the Last Decade list and the Locus Recommended Reading List. Her third novel, Mothwoman was released in late 2022. Nicole lives in Indiana.
