Of The Flesh

Fear never dies... These stories from eighteen master storytellers will curdle your blood, haunt your dreams and redefine terror. An exploited child worker in the silver mines of Bolivia finds an ally - but at what cost? A young woman''s workplace affair has terrifying repercussions when her lover''s wife dies. A sailor''s wife takes her communion with Nature a little too far... From a hungry young woman who is not what she seems, to a boy who has taken his mother''s advice a little too seriously; from disfigured girls willing to pay any price to fit in, to an immigrant who cannot escape his tormentor; from a new home with a sinister secret, to the discovery that a long-dead parent''s corpse is perfectly preserved decades later; this collection plumbs the depths of the psyche and dredges up some very modern horrors. Featuring stories by: Susan Barker, J K Chukwu, Bridget Collins, Mariana Enriquez, Michel Faber, Lewis Hancox, Emilia Hart, Ainslie Hogarth, Robert Lautner, Adorah Nworah, Irenosen Okojie, Lucy Rose, Lionel Shriver, James Smythe, Lavie Tidhar, Francine Toon, Evie Wyld and Louisa Young
