Produktbeschreibung

'One of the best British post-war writers of horror and the weird.'

- Adam Nevill, author of The Ritual

Joel Lane (1963-2013) was one of the UK's foremost writers of dark, unsettling fiction, a frank explorer of sexuality and the transgressive aspects of human nature. With a tight focus on the post-industrial Black Country and his home city of Birmingham, he created a distinct form of British urban weird fiction.

Scar City is one of the final collections put together before his death in 2013 - with his home city of Birmingham as their nucleus, these are intense, haunting and often painful stories from a master of the short form.

WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY NICHOLAS ROYLE
