Joy Williams writes of a father with a grown son even stranger and less stable than he suspects. It creeps into our dreams and, if we allow it, can plague our ponderings of the future. Granta 117 takes a stab at understanding the phenomenon that is horror.With award-winning writing, Granta has illuminated the most complex issues of modern life. And Mark Doty ruminates on a close encounter between Walt Whitman and Bram Stoker. Don DeLillo climbs into the head a moviegoer-turned-stalker. Rajesh Parameswaran presents us with a tiger who narrates its own escape from a zoo and its subsequent terrorizing of a neighborhood, while Daniel Alarcon explores the phenomenon of staged, high-camp blood baths. And perhaps most frightening of all: without reason or apology, one person’s fancy is another person’s torment. The same monsters’ that lived under our childhood beds can reappear, alive and toothsome, in our adult lives. Get scared. In 117, Stephen King writes of a retired judge who pays repeated visits to a patch of sand capable of predicting human mortality. It haunts us; it stalks us; it shapes us. Hold tight. Also new work by Paul Auster, Will Self
Less than Horrifying Amazon Customer I purchased this publication because I am always on the trail of new authors whose writing satisfies my literary palate, and with Stephen King in the mix I was hoping for a couple of emerging prodigies that might hold the promise of reinvigorating the horror genre. The opening story is very weak and just depressing instead of horrific as the author recounts how poor decisions in hi. Horrendous horror Sam Quixote They should call the magazine Garbage instead of Granta!This edition pretends to explore the horror genre but all it produces is a book full of horrifically pretentious and soul-crushingly boring stories.Will Self’s False Blood prattles on about his heroin addiction with ridiculously verbose language – hey, lookit me, I’m edumacated, I has a degree an’ evert. Granta 117: Horror Though this literary magazine is originally from Europe. I Just Happen To order it from here, and I wasn't disappointed. For oneWho doesn't love a great Stephen King Short Story in it? King's The Dune is well worth the price of the thick magazine. Plusenjoy reading the other horror stories. I Recommend This For Stephen King Fans and Lover of Horror stories. Thank You Amazon!
"Just in time for Halloween, Granta, the London-based quarterly, calls on the American master of horror, Stephen King, to headline a new issue devoted to horror that's more literary than gory, yet still chilling and at times, bloody." -- USA Today"Looking for something a little more cerebral this Halloween than underwear models with fangs? You can’t do better than the new issue of Granta: Horror.” The 117th volume of the British literary journal offers a bone-chilling selection of fiction and nonfiction." -- The Washington Post
