In any case, about Leavings ... I don't want to say too much for fear of giving it away. Reading a set of short stories by one author is always interesting. It's like seeing an exhibit with all of the works of one artist. I remember seeing a Magritte exhibit, the largest yet presented, and getting the idea that, well, he really liked apples, and clouds, and bowlers. In this same way, I discovered that P.D.Cacek must find babies pretty creepy. There were dead baby dolls, anti-demon baby toys, haunted stillborn babies, baby gargoyles, etc. Or perhaps it's just that a dead child is the most horrific thing she can imagine. But aside from a slight preference for that, Cacek shows a range of settings from rural, to historical, to fantastic. Her writing is evocative without being flowery and leaves you with a lingering unease, just the way I like it!
That's all there is to say. I quite enjoyed it and you might too, if you happen to have a taste for horror.
