THE SKIN WE FEEL MOST COMFORTABLE IN is such a collection. Like a nightmarish fusion of Poe, James Herbert, and Clive Barker, Craig Wallwork executes his stories with a ruthless, surgical precision, resulting in a veritable Grand Guignol of visceral delights that will truly get under your skin, and it'll do so with protracted glee. One of the most impressive books I've read in years."- Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Kin and Sour Candy"The Skin We Feel Most Comfortable In showcases a writer at the very peak of their undeniable talent, who weaves story after story of inescapable and insidious horror. Wallwork has the uncanny ability to write stories that not only leave you horrified, moved and forever changed, but ultimately render you awed at his gift as a raconteur. This collection further cements Wallwork as one of the best short story writers of our times, a national treasure and a true master of the genre."- Ross Jeffery, Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Metamorphosis and The Devil's Pocketbook"From the Gothic to the grotesque, this collection taps into the psyche with a hammer and chisel, leaving the reader raw from the flailing. There's heart here too though, heart and dark humour." - Catherine McCarthy, author of Mosaic and Death of a Clown "Craig Wallwork understands the poetry in pain. This is a collection of both unsettling horror and deep beauty. Fresh as well as frightening, these stories will close their fingers around your heart as well as your throat." - Andrew Cull, author of Remains This item is printed on demand.
