Complete Butcher's Tales cover

Nearly sixty unforgettable stories in the fantastic tradition of Jorge Luis Borges, Bruno Schulz, Angela Carter, and H. P. Lovecraft. Includes two previously uncollected stories.

In the fantastic tradition of Borges, Bruno Schulz, Angela Carter, and H. P. Lovecraft, here are nearly sixty unforgettable stories that ignore the confines of space and time to offer, among other times and places: a cabinet of curiosities in contemporary Cairo, an alvhemical ceiling in 18th-century Naples, the hallucinatory inner worlds of psychotics, anthropomorphic planets, and an Old West ruled by necromancy.This expanded, revised edition collects the complete short stories of one of the most immaginative writers of our time.

"Ducornet here offers a brilliant, refreshingly varied collection." -- PW "... garishly vivid, splendid little nightmares." -- Library Journal
