Kiernan is brilliant, and this collection of stories blew me out of the water. I don't generally care for horror, and these are mostly pretty horrific, but the writing is just so fantastic that I didn't mind. Gorgeously crafted imagery, piercing insight into sexual power dynamics, and a finely-honed sense of the appeal of the grotesque - this collection is not for everyone, for sure, but it's splendid if you can stand the subject matter.

Caitlin Kiernan sets her masterful, intoxicating prose to the task of retelling fairy tales, spinning sensual post-Lovecraftian yarns, and blurring the lines between pain and pleasure. Here is a celebration of the bizarre and beautiful, and a marriage of unlikely worlds. From a reverence of the dead to the sacrifices the living make to unspeakable gods, from clockwork dreams to tales of merciless revenge, Kiernan blurs the artificial lines of genre, and shows us a world where there is no division between the light and dark.
