In her inimitable style, Kirsty Logan powerfully explores both the power of refusal and the wild, sharp, unruly edges of women’s desire… a dark delight, steeped in blood red honey * Heather Parry, author of Orpheus Builds A Girl *
Exploring the dark underbelly of love in all its guises, Kirsty Logan’s words writhe on the page, a gothic homage to the visceral, haunting, unnerving nature of human connection. An unsettling collection from one of the sharpest, strangest short story writers working today * Alice Slater, author of Death of a Bookseller *
Shimmers with menace … Fans of Angela Carter and Shirley Jackson take note * i Newspaper, on THINGS WE SAY IN THE DARK *
One of our national writing treasures… deeply atmospheric… will hold you tight and not let go’ * Stylist, on NOW SHE IS WITCH *
No one writes about the horrific and the erotic, and the tangled up intersections of both, like Kirsty Logan. This book will make you sweat * Anna Bogutskaya, author of Feeding The Monster *
Mesmerising and evocative’ * Observer, on NOW SHE IS WITCH *
Powerful, imaginative, compelling - myth-making at its best * Val McDermid, on NOW SHE IS WITCH *
