Portraits of Decay

Under your mask, there is only decay. In Carson Winter's debut collection of social horror, characters reveal their darkest selves in the face of the insane and inexplicable. A couple finds themselves trading identities in the form of masks. A podcaster follows strange clues to a mystery that may spell his end. A child's world collapses into chaos as its dreamer awakens. Portraits of Decay poses subjects as both transgressor and victim; dreamer and derelict-in eighteen stories of anxiety, desire, and unbearable finality. Featuring an introduction from Andrew F. Sullivan, author of The Marigold.
