Description

The perfect dark valentine. A delicious collection of love stories to sink your teeth into, from the prizewinning author of NOW SHE IS WITCH Can 'no' be a declaration of love? What happens when love is savage, dangerous and all-consuming? In this gorgeous and unsettling collection, women navigate the complexities and cruelties of desire across time and place, from a medieval convent to a Victorian parlour to a 1990s high school. * An expectant mother feeds raw meat to the wasp's nest in her shed. * A pair of sapphic lovers use ghost possession to fleece money from lecherous men. * One woman in wartime London discovers that she loves her husband much more as a ghost. * A teenage girl becomes infatuated with a bloodthirsty succubus. Intensely atmospheric, surprising and darkly funny, this collection is a richly flavoured feast from a brilliant writer in full command of the form. 'Absolutely obsessed. Savage, strange and spicy' Lucy Rose, author of Lamb 'Unsettling and addictive, glistening with transgressive thrills and erotic appetites' Daily Mail 'Gleefully depraved, gloriously queer and thrillingly bold' Leon Craig, author of Parallel Hells 'A dark delight, steeped in blood red honey' Heather Parry, author of Orpheus Builds A Girl 'A gothic homage to the visceral, haunting, unnerving nature of human connection' Alice Slater, author of Death of a Bookseller 'Full of strange beauty and shining humour' Stylist 'No one writes about the horrific and the erotic, and the tangled up intersections of both, like Kirsty Logan' Anna Bogutskaya, author of Feeding The Monster
