Description

This June, triple National Magazine Award-winning McSweeney's Quarterly returns with its 71st issue, focussing on Horror. Inside you'll find stories to delight and terrify, stories which challenge the notion of what horror has been and suggest what 21st century horror is and can be. Contents include four-time Bram Stoker Award and two-time Shirley Jackson Award winner Stephen Graham Jones's eerie take on the alien abduction story; six-time World Fantasy Award winner Jeffrey Ford's exploration of a writer who loses control of his characters; Shirley Jackson Award winner and co-creator of the award winning TV series The Act Nick Antosca's novelette about the hidden horrors of wine country; British Fantasy Award Winner Kristine Ong Muslim's exploration of environmental horror in the Philippines; Wonderland Book Award winner Gabino Iglesias's folk tale with a sharp edge; NEA winning Diné writer Natanya Ann Pulley's rethinking of SF horror for an indigenous perspective; Hungarian writer Attila Veres's dark take on the not-so-hidden sociopathy of multi-level marketing; New York Times Editor's Pick Erika T. Wurth's exploration of the dark gaps leading to other worlds; an excerpt of a new novel by National Book Award finalist Brandon Hobson, and more. Compiled by guest editor Brian Evenson, McSweeney's Issue 71, as always, features the very best in new literary fiction, in a unique and beautifully designed format, that will occupy a cherished spot on your bookshelves for years to come.
