More Description

With Darkest Days and Haunted Ways, renowned horror poet Ashley Dioses shows us the twisted roots at the very heart of her bleak and macabre vision. Once meant for inclusion with the rest of her formative work in The Withering but omitted for stylistic reasons, these poems nevertheless attain a doomful thematic cohesion all their own. Originally written by the young poetess between the impressionable ages of fourteen and seventeen, but now polished by an experienced hand, these poems directly reflect-as in a cold, cracked mirror-the angst and emotional turmoil that informed those years of her life. With the publication of this book, these macabre paeans and lamentations of the damned take their rightful place beside The Withering as its indispensable companion volume.With a foreword by K. A. Opperman and an afterword by the author. Illustrated.
