Produktbeschreibung

Award-winning poet Kyla Lee Ward invites you to whistle past the graveyard and get on your dancing shoes! Inspired by the fourteenth century "Danse Macabre" (the Dance of Death), The Macabre Modern updates for contemporary readers the allegorical, medieval concept of the universality of death. Defy death with the doctor. Mourn with the soldier. Indulge in the rich, weird traditions of Ancient Egypt and the Victorians, as you trip over the unspeakable at your own front door. Chuckle at the grotesque and the fallible, but remember - the last laugh will be on you!

Contains the Australian Shadows winners, "Revenants of the Antipodes" and "The Danse Macabre - an essay.
