Windeye
Brian Evenson
A woman falling out of sync with the world; a king's servant hypnotized
by his murderous horse; a transplanted ear with a mind of its own. The
characters in these stories live as interlopers in a world shaped by
mysterious disappearances and unfathomable discrepancies between the
real and imagined. Brian Evenson, master of literary horror, presents
his most far-ranging collection to date, exploring how humans can
persist in an increasingly unreal world. Haunting, gripping, and
psychologically fierce, these tales illuminate a dark and unsettling
side of humanity.
