A short selection of unnerving flash fiction, focussed on the themes of transformation, sexuality, consumption, and the animal within. It is unashamedly strange, but I tend to find that magical realism works best in short, sharp bursts like this, presenting us with a series of striking images and ideas without requiring a prolonged suspension of disbelief. Each story is accompanied by a two-page illustration by Maria Stoian. These are suitably sumptuous and otherworldly in style and colour palet...
The House of Former Lovers offers seven animal-inspired short stories to readers. Brimming with dark magic, this collection is concerned with sex, strange hybrid babies, eating and being eaten up. Stoian’s illustrations are stunning and vivid, with a luxurious double-page spread following each story. If you enjoyed Logan’s Things We Say in the Dark and like beautiful things, pick up this chapbook.
