"...inside the simmering pot rested a primordial soup. And the soup was hungry."
There's something in the chest; something in the cave; something wrong with the soup; something sad about the doll; and something summoned from another realm. But each of these things are not what you expect.
This first collection of speculative short stories by Emily Wyeth defies genre and shares with its reader some of her strangest and best feminine monsters. Grotesque, unsettling, and, at times, relatable, these monsters explore the female experience ranging from love and acceptance to fear and survival with some fairy tale and Lovecraftian twists.
Disturbing and fascinating, these stories will unravel expectations with their refreshingly unique feminine monsters.
