Winner of the 2015 New England Book Festival Award for Best Anthology. Large Print Edition. You want strange? You got it. Wicked Strange, as they say in New England. Imagine looking out your window in Nashua, New Hampshire and seeing an other-worldly hearse cruising up and down the street in search of a soul. Heard about Plantation 13, the rural Maine backwater, where the males birth the babies through their eye sockets? Hey, don't pet that infected dog! It's been in that concrete wall over three decades. And what's up with those giant moths trapped in the tower of the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse? Be sure to cross the road when you go past the old witchy woman's place along the White River in Bethel, Vermont or you may run into the spirit-stealers. Spend a day with the new caretaker's apprentice at the old felons' bone yard in Augusta, Maine. You say you need your fix of New England weirdness? Well, you're guaranteed to find it here under the covers--the front and back covers--of Bram Stoker Award winner Steve Burt's latest collection: Wicked Strange.
