Description by Author:
Katherine Black uses emotions and characters to manipulate
your senses until they ache.
This is a collection of fictional stories born of dark
things living in the author’s head. It’s about the power of the human
condition—and the weakness. A collection of intense stories written with
passion and insight. Some are so tragic they can break a heart. Every piece in
the book is tinged with human emotion—kindness, colour, darkness, or autumn
tones.
While some women are dipping in the supermarket freezers for
frozen peas, Katherine wonders how a body would fit. Would you have to break
their arms and legs to get them in? What do frozen eyes look like? She has a
head full of psychopaths. Sometimes they need to be let out. This book is the
result of their freedom.
You will find thought-provoking, bleak, kind, harsh,
gentle—and dark— stories that will make you uncomfortable.
If it wasn’t so shocking, it would be a...Travesty.
