A Casket Full of Dead Flowers

- Tales of Monsters, Love and Flowers

Bag om A Casket Full of Dead Flowers

'They drink up the blood between our legs, the milk from the chest and pick their teeth with our ribs and ask for seconds.' A Casket Full of Flowers is a collection of tales of monsters and flowers. Blood and beauty meet in these short stories that seek to explore destiny, gender and what truly makes us 'monstrous.' While a fox corpse is at first a gruesome sight, one day plant-life, born from the compost of the corpse, will push through the earth and intertwine with the bones. At its heart, the stories of A Casket Full of Dead Flowers tell stories of the outsider. Within, a familial werewolf curse plagues a cliffside French mansion, New York becomes its own isolated biome where humans and nature live as one with alien intervention, Red Riding Hood grows teeth and claws and an Exorcist carries an unusual, unholy appetite. A young girl on the cusp of womanhood discovers she has powers over life and death and a small god wrecks havoc over his own isolated cult. Be prepared. Beauty and darkness await you within. 'I am the wolf, a creature of bones, teeth, and blood, and I eat men like you.'
