Where We Live and Die
Brian Keene
Horror / Comics & Graphic Novels / Mystery & Thrillers
Since his earliest stories, Brian Keene has deconstructed the mystique of the writing life. Isolation, relationships lost, long hours, inconsistent paychecks, and professional heartbreak are all part of the job. Keene has unflinchingly laid bare the realities of the full-time writer. Where We Live and Die collects Brian Keene's best stories about the writing life, including his metafictional ghost story masterpiece "The Girl on the Glider," a glimpse of Adam Senft (from Keene's Dark Hollow and Ghost Walk) in Hell, and a never-before-printed spoken word poem encapsulating the history of the horror genre. Where We Live and Die is a masterful collection by a Grandmaster of Horror and a fictional guidebook for the working writer.
The Girl on the Glider
Brian Keene
Horror / Comics & Graphic Novels / Mystery & Thrillers
Considered by many critics to be one of Brian Keene’s
best works, The Girl on the Glider has been long out of print-until
now!
The year is 2009, and the world’s financial and
publishing sectors are in chaos. In the midst of this disarray, a burned-out
horror writer finds himself haunted by a variety of ghosts, both real and
metaphorical. And as the ghosts increase their attacks, his struggle to make a
living quickly becomes a fight to hold on to his family-and his very
sanity.
This meta-fictional take on the traditional,
old-fashioned ghost story is a deft mix of M. R. James and Hunter S. Thompson,
and makes for one of Keene’s most personal and powerful novellas.
Cemetery Dance, 2008. Hardcover (limited to 537+52
copies), 102 pp.
