Book excerpt: Had your rabies shots yet? The rats are loose! Twenty-four 'rat' themed short stories, and the first book in a three-book collection, The Creature Tales. Many of the stories here are traditional blood and gore filled horror, but several venture slightly into the realms of science fiction and the supernatural. Within this collection, the reader will find every rat incarnation imaginable, from the super strong and ultra intelligent to bloodthirsty and seemingly immortal. While every story has been written to stand alone, several are loosely inter-connected with an ongoing reference to the future. Among the stories are: A farmer's imaginative though barbaric attempt to solve his rat problem backfires in the worst possible way. A young boy's efforts to repay the kindness of his childhood rodent friends has consequences that will change the course of history. A vicious ghostly rat falls victim to karma. A centuries-old rat looks back on how it became the seemingly immortal creature it is. Some escaped convicts realise too late they've chosen the wrong couple to terrorise when their rodent pets see their own comfy lives threatened. A grim fate awaits those who take shelter in an abandoned house. A country squire finds himself on the receiving end of his sporting cruelty. These are just some of the stories in this extensive collection, so brace yourselves for ... A Mischief of Little Horrors. *A further two books in this three-book collection, Canine Tales and Six, Eight & Many Legged Tales, are scheduled for early 2019 ...

Book excerpt: The acclaimed author’s first collection of stories “Gayl Jones’s work represents a watershed in American literature. From a literary standpoint, her form is impeccable . . . and as a Black woman writer, her truth-telling, filled with beauty, tragedy, humor, and incisiveness, is unmatched.” —Imani Perry Gayl Jones has been described as one of the great literary writers of the 20th century and was recently a finalist for both the Pulitzer Prize and The National Book Award. This collection of short fiction was her third book, originally edited and published by Toni Morrison in 1977, and is reissued now alongside her second collection, BUTTER, in paperback for the first time. The collection contains twelve provocative tales that explore the emotional and mental terrain of a diverse cast of characters, from the innocent to the insane. In each, Jones displays her unflinching ability to dive into the most treacherous of psyches and circumstances: the title story examines the identity and relationship conundrums of a black man who can pass for white, earning him the name “White Rat” as an infant; “The Women” follows a girl whose mother brings a line of female lovers to live in their home; “Jevata” details eighteen-year-old Freddy’s relationship with the fifty-year-old title character; “The Coke Factory” tracks the thoughts of a mentally handicapped adolescent abandoned by his mother; and “Asylum” focuses on a woman having a nervous breakdown, trying to protect her dignity and her private parts as she enters an institution. In uncompromising prose, and dialect that veers from northern, educated tongues to down-home southern colloquialisms, Jones illuminates lives that society ignores, moving them to center stage.
