The book that sucks the blood
from children
The film that turns
people into self-destructive sadomasochistic obsessives
The lunatic asylum that steals souls
The art exhibition of mutilated humanity...
where the exhibits are still alive!
John Llewellyn Probert’s latest
short story collection – containing 18 delicious selections – mixes the cruel with the carnal, the sadistic
with the sexual, the erotic with the outrageous, to bring you tales of a cuckolded husband’s terrible revenge, the television channel where you
can pay off your debts but at the worst price imaginable, the man
willing to do anything to improve his chances of success with the
ladies, a marriage guidance counsellor who goes to bloody extremes to
prove her point, the woman who will do anything to keep her family, and a city made entirely from human bone. All of this, and the last Christmas ever, just to make things even more cheery.
