Seven from Haven
by Daniel GrottaSeven gentle tales of the paranormal with O'Henry-like sensibility, charm and humorSet in a small Pennsylvania mountain village, where strange and wondrous things happen, Seven from Haven are quirky, fantastical Twilight Zone-like short stories which prove what they say about this town: "Haven takes care of its own.""The stories are magical. Grotta teases us with very precise detail and almost journalistic scene setting, then when we're not quite looking carries us gently into a world of soft boundaries, unexplained visitations, and of deep, deep hope and simple courage. These stories speak from and directly to the heart." - David Zarko

Children of Paradise: Longlisted For The Women's Prize For Fiction 2023
by Camilla GrudovaFollowing Grudova's critically acclaimed collection The Doll's Alphabet, this surreal, discomforting debut novel charts the fates of a ragtag group of cinema workers who are spat out by corporate takeover.When Holly applies for a job at the Paradise - one of the city's oldest cinemas, squashed into the ground floor of a block of flats - she thinks it will be like any other shift work. She cleans toilets, sweeps popcorn, avoids the belligerent old owner, Iris, and is ignored by her aloof but tight-knit colleagues who seem as much a part of the building as its fraying carpets and endless dirt. Dreadful, lonely weeks pass while she longs for their approval, a silent voyeur. So when she finally gains the trust of this cryptic band of oddballs, Holly transforms from silent drudge to rebellious insider and gradually she too becomes part of the Paradise - unearthing its secrets, learning its history and haunting its corridors after hours with the other ushers. It is no surprise when violence strikes, tempers change and the group, eyes still affixed to the screen, starts to rapidly go awry...
L’alphabet des poupées (Traduction littéraire)
by Camilla GrudovaPoupées, machines à coudre, aliments en boîte, miroirs, corps défaillants défilent au fil de nouvelles qui sont tour à tour enfantines et naïves, grotesques et sombres. Ici une révolution féministe; là une ouvrière qui fait tout ce qu’elle peut pour ne pas perdre son Homme dans une société où il est mal vu d’être sans Homme; là encore une créature mi-humaine, mi-araignée qui trouve enfin l’amour dans une grande ville européenne. En explorant de mille façons ses obsessions dans ses nouvelles saisissantes, Camilla Grudova dérange, décontenance. Les critiques canadiens, américains et britanniques ont apparenté cette jeune écrivaine déjà maître de son art à Angela Carter, Sheila Heti, H.P. Lovecraft, Franz Kafka, Margaret Atwood, David Cronenberg et David Lynch. Sans aucun doute le livre le plus original d’un auteur canadien publié en 2017. Une première oeuvre qui pointe clairement vers l’émergence d’un talent littéraire majeur au Canada. Ce livre est publié en français. - Dolls, sewing machines, tinned foods, mirrors, and malfunctioning bodies parade through these short stories that are in turn childish and naive, grotesque and dark. We encounter a feminist revolution; a worker who does everything in her power not to lose her Man in a society where being without a Man is frowned upon; a creature—half-human, half-spider—that finds love at long last in a great European city. As she examines her obsessions from multiple angles, Camilla Grudova disturbs and discomfits with her vivid stories. Canadian, American, and British critics have compared this young writer, already a master of her art, to Angela Carter, Sheila Heti, H. P. Lovecraft, Franz Kafka, Margaret Atwood, David Cronenberg, and David Lynch. This is undoubtedly the most original work by a Canadian writer published in 2017, a debut that clearly signals the emergence of a major new literary talent. This book is published in French.

But the woods hold more than one secret. There are other forces at play. If they can survive long enough, they might just be able to even the odds.

Mythical beasts, once thought the stuff of fantasy, are breaking through the veil, intent on waging war against mankind.

Beyond the Woods: Fairy Tales Retold
by Paula GuranOnce upon a time, the stories that came to be known as "fairy tales" were cultivated to entertain adults more than children; it was only later that they were tamed and pruned into less thorny versions intended for youngsters. But in truth, they have continued to prick the imaginations of readers at all ages. Over the years, authors have often borrowed bits and pieces from these stories, grafting them into their own writing, creating literature with both new meaning and age-old significance. In the last few decades or so, they've also intentionally retold and reinvented the tales in a variety of ways--delightful or dark, wistful or wicked, sweet or satirical--that forge new trails through the forests of fantastic fiction. This new anthology compiles some of the best modern fairy-tale retellings and reinventions from award-winning and bestselling authors, acclaimed storytellers, and exciting new talents, into an enchanting collection. Explore magical new realms by traveling with us, Beyond the Woods . . .
The Mammoth Book of Cthulhu: New Lovecraftian Fiction (Mammoth Books #267)
by Paula GuranFor more than 80 years H. P. Lovecraft has inspired writers of horror and supernatural fiction with his dark vision of humankind's insignificant place in a vast, uncaring cosmos. At the time of his death in 1937, Lovecraft was virtually unknown, but from early cult status his readership expanded exponentially; his nightmarish visions laying down roots in the collective imagination of his readers. Now this master of the macabre is accepted as part of the literary mainstream, as an American author of note, and the impact of his work on modern popular culture - in literature, film, television, music, the graphic arts, gaming and theatre - has been profound. As Stephen King wrote in Danse Macabre, the shadow of H. P. Lovecraft 'underlies almost all of the important horror fiction that has come since.'Today, Lovecraft's themes of cosmic indifference, the utter insignificance of humankind, minds invaded by the alien, and the horrors of history remain not only viable motifs for modern speculative fiction, but are more relevant than ever as we explore the mysteries of a universe in which our planet is infinitesimal.This outstanding anthology of original stories - from both established award-winning authors and exciting new voices - collects tales of cosmic horror inspired by Lovecraft from authors who do not merely imitate, but reimagine, re-energize, and renew the best of his concepts in ways relevant to today's readers, to create fresh new fiction that explores our modern fears and nightmares. From the depths of R'lyeh to the heights of the Mountains of Madness, some of today's best weird fiction writers traverse terrain created by Lovecraft and create new eldritch geographies to explore . . .With stories by: Laird Barron, Nadia Bulkin, Amanda Downum, Ruthanna Emrys, Richard Gavin, Lois H.

Wise Praise for the editor:'For fans of Lovecraftian fiction and well-wrought horror' - Library Journal'Guran smartly selects stories that evoke the spirit of Lovecraft's work without mimicking its style.' - Publishers Weekly'It's a pretty impressive line-up, with nary a clunker to be found. . . . You don't have to be a Lovecraft fan to enjoy this anthology... You'll find alienation, inhumanity, desperation, cruelty, insanity, hopelessness and despair, all set against the backdrop of a vast, unknowable universe filled with vile, indifferent monstrosities.
