I Am Stone
Through vampiric trysts, heady visions of ghostly processions, and metaphorical tales of murdering one's own psyche, the portrait of a truly unique writer of the strange tale emerges. R. Murray Gilchrist was lauded for his imagination and florid, illustrative style during the fin-de-siecle period, and this new collection showcases the very best of his short fiction. Despite being admired by H. G. Wells and described by Arnold Bennett as "almost the peak of perfection in that difficult genre [of short fiction]," Gilchrist and his works are now largely forgotten. Packed with thrilling encounters and unforgettable descriptions from the weirdest ebb of the writer's mind, this anthology aims to introduce a new readership to Gilchrist's entrancing and influential oeuvre.

Exit 4
Exit Four is a collection of off-beat literary fiction originally published in university literary journals and elsewhere. The reader will find a long and very dark story set in subways in London, Paris, and New York; the invention of the chair, and how that disrupted an ancient culture; a couple who meet in a supermarket and how that place prefigures their lives together; an old man riding a train, who realizes that a young artist is drawing his gnarled hands; two lovers whose only real connection is a painting on a museum wall; and others. Some of these stories could happen, even if unlikely; others take place only in the uncertain world of the mind.
