The Drowning Machine and Other Obsessions - Emma E. Murray

\nListen closely to the voices of the damned. \n \n\n \nWithin this collection's spiral and churn, author Emma E. Murray tunes into the taboo: parental regret, the death of innocence, carnal yearning, and creeping evil. Readers will hear ferocious howls from the darkest depths, tender lullabies pushed through ragged lips, and deranged arias of grief and desperation. Beneath it all? The quiet, contented hum of something that has just fed...yet hungers for more. \n \n\n \nIn these eighteen tales, Murray navigates the uncharted waters of love, lust, and loss, descending into the most dangerous place in existence: the human (and inhuman) heart. \n \n\n \nWith stories previously published in such venues as Vastarien and Cosmic Horror Monthly, as well as critically acclaimed anthologies, Emma E. Murray's virtuosic prose takes the reader to the innermost spiral of the vortex and leaves them there, gasping for breath. \n \n\n \nEnter the maelstrom of THE DROWNING MACHINE and Other Obsessions, and let yourself sink-into a darkness that will devour you.\n
