I knew this
legendary cult
horror novella
by Eric LaRocca
would
disturb and disgust
and wreck me,
and it did
all of those things.
Never was there
a page where
I knew how it would
unfold.
I loved
not knowing.
This is a book
you will read
in one sitting
whether you intended to
or not. Goodreads
describes it as
a “whirlpool of darkness”
and that is true.
While the book
is now out of print,
look for a new version
