The Devil You Know

The Devil You Know

Poppy Z. Brite is a master of the short form. In her newest gathering (and first collection since 1998) you'll find everything from stories with an alternate world Poppy as the coroner of New Orleans (“Oh Death, Where is Thy Spatula?” “Marisol”), to a traditional Halloween story (“Lantern Marsh”), to one published as a hard-to-find chapbook (“Pansu”), to a brand-new novella related to her upcoming novel, Liquor. (This is not an excerpt; it stands alone.)<br /><br />Even if you're a huge Poppy Z. Brite fan, you're certain to have missed many of these.
