Exotic Gothic 2: New Tales of Taboo

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (16979 ratings)

Description:Be drawn into Gothic enigmas from seven continents, and struggle to find your own explanation for the inexplicable in these twenty-four original stories. Identify with bewildered, ghost-ridden characters facing (or becoming) monstrosity. Let the darkness—from a dress dummy to a rogue nuclear state—creep closer to your living experience . . . and discern the Gothic secret: the revelation of the monster's purpose.Almost viral in its adaptability, the nouveau Gothique transforms itself in these pages, feeding off broader cultural anxieties. Skilfully violating conventions of horror and suspense—and opening the door to other genres including fantasy, historical account, and travel narrative—the freshness of its stories infects us with something unknown. Our old expectations offer no antibodies to this latest mutation.CONTENTS:Preface: 'A Twenty-first Century Gothic' by Danel OlsonASIA'Remembrance' by Dean Francis Alfar'The Arrangement' by Edward P.
