About This Item
Dublin: Swan River Press, 2021. First edition, Hardcover, SIGNED, Limited, New in dust jacket,. Meggan Kehrli. Dublin: Swan River Press:, 2021. First edition, Hardcover, SIGNED, Limited, New in dust jacket, 209 pp.<br/> Cover artwork by: Meggan Kehrli This edition limited to 500 copies signed by the author, intro-writer Lisa Tuttle and cover artist Meggan Kehrli. "A group of resourceful young girls punish the men of a small town for unspeakable lusts by luring them to a derelict factory and into the toils of a bizarre contraption; a dead man tries to makes sense of a strange epiphany he experienced one day when out hiking amid gigantic ancient redwoods; and a state judge, fleeing disgrace, settles with his family on an isolated ruinous estate where some dread thing prowls in the night . . . As Lisa Tuttle notes in her introduction, where most writers, as most people, tend to "settle down" as they age, to work within ever more constrained limits, Joyce Carol Oates's remarkable imagination, in the sixth decade of her career, manifests no sign of such complacency.
