![]() ![]() ![]() The Holeby Hye-Young PyunĪ South Korean bestseller and winner of the Shirley Jackson Award, The Hole tells the tale of a man who wakes from a coma after a horrific car accident that killed his wife and left him paralyzed and disfigured. A stand out and original tale on the horrors of gendered violence. Our protagonist grows increasingly frantic as he fails to satisfy the strange intruders’ harassment to the point where his own sanity begins to crack. An unnamed narrator’s home is invaded in the middle of a storm as two mysterious intruders proceed to question the host’s identity. The Iliac Crest by Cristina Rivera GarzaĪ powerful Gothic tale that strikes at the heart of male-female binary issues. The revelations are beyond disturbing and if you’d ever told me that someone could make a baby blanket frightening, well, then welcome to the world of Kealan Patrick Burke. The amount of grief, despair, and dread Burke manages to cram into 79 pages is a feat in its own right as we follow the tale of a father coping with his recently deceased infant daughter. A quick and biting read from one of my favorite contemporary horror authors. ![]()
