Review: Good Night, Sleep Tight by Brian Evenson

July 31, 2024 by George Dunn Leave a Comment

Synopsis: From the “master of literary horror” (GQ) comes a collection of new stories tracing the limits and consequences of artificial intelligence and “post-human” relationships.

Review: Recreational Panic: Stories by Sonora Taylor

February 6, 2024 by George Dunn Leave a Comment

Synopsis: Fear is so much a part of our lives that instead of running away from it, we’re finding ways to relax with it. Could it be through a true crime obsession that leads to stalking, or a camp song sung with murderous intent? Maybe it’s better suited in an unwieldy email chain, or making […]
