Sinopse

'A fucking beauty of a book, every story brilliant.' -Kaaron Warren, award-winning author of The UnderhistoryThe beach where his teenage sister disappeared / time and dream melt in the mouth of deep weird-An open mic night bears witness to a fury / a life-changing performance before a dread jury-A truck stop photo by a touring punk bassist / a chase across the country and her most personal places-Seven friends mourn a beloved queer icon / a final bequest unleashes the deepest dark of an eidolon...Songs of shadow, words of woe!A lonely film student attends a free indie screening / will this obscure flick bring the end heâÇÖs dreaming? -Two wilful women climb a hill to watch a storm / and learn their townâÇÖs history of racism and scorn-Grotesque gangsters in a burlesque club dive / trouble erupts when a new player arrives-Invited to experience true terror, not a relic / a horror film fan runs through a theatre derelict...Songs of shadow, words of woe!Thirteen morbidly melodic deep cuts from Matthew R. Davis, including the Australasian Shadows Award-winning 'Steadfast Shadowsong' and the Shirley Jackson Award-nominated novelette 'Heritage Hill.''Elegant, frightening, and so delightfully strange, this isnâÇÖt just a collection-itâÇÖs a cabal.' -Aaron Dries, author of Dirty Heads and A Place for Sinnersá'A powerhouse collection filled with rock and roll, the uncanny, the unsettling, and the all-out terrifying. A few stories had me looking over my shoulder to see what was lurking in the dark corners of my room.' -Jo Kaplan, Shirley Jackson Award-nominated author of When the Night Bells Ring
