Description
Stories of the mysterious and macabre from â?oCanadaâ?Ts answer to Stephen Kingâ?? (Helen Marshall, author of Gifts for the One Who Comes After). A In this follow-up to his award-winning debut collection, Monstrous Affections, David Nickle stretches the boundaries of horror into a sphere of â?ouncertainty, of helplessness, of traditions and change.A .A .A . The stories are sui generis in presentation, veering from the discombobulating nightmare that is â?~Basementsâ?T to the squid-laden eco-satire â?~Wyldeâ?Ts Kingdomâ?T to the sci-fi love of â?~Love Means Forever.â?T When it comes to this book, only two things are certain; the stories never travel where you expect, and David Nickle is a monumental talentâ?? (Publishers Weekly, starred review). A â?oDonâ?Tt make the mistake of overlooking the talent based on preconceptions of what horror might beâ?"read one of these stories and see if you arenâ?Tt hooked.A .A .A . Believe the hype. David Nickle is very good.â?? â?"The Globe and Mail A â?oAnyone even vaguely interested in horror or weird fiction owes it to themselves to give David Nickle a look, and Knife Fight and Other Struggles is a great place to start.â?? â?"The Winnipeg Free Press A â?oKnife Fight and Other Struggles is a remarkable collection that drops some hi-fidelity weirdness on the scene. Nickleâ?Ts prose has gorgeous lines of symmetry and a steel spine.â?? â?"Laird Barron, Shirley Jackson Awardâ?"winning author A â?oDynamic imagination, masterful writing of both the everyday and the nightmare, characters that breathe, and a dark sense of humor make [Knife Fight and Other Struggles] a keeper.â?? â?"Jeffrey Ford, World Fantasy Awardâ?"winning author A A
