Weird fiction with a darkly sensual twist. BLACK PROPAGANDA delves deep into the dark, twisted roots of human nature and human sexuality. Using desire to dissect the delusions and dilemmas of will, choice and identity, this collection challenges genre boundaries and social conventions. Transgressive, confrontational, passionate, poignant, these sinister stories touch on every shade of black, from noir to the Lovecraftian cosmic abyss. Readers may be horrified, touched, tempted - never unmoved. This is the first short story collection from noted British poet and weird fiction writer Paul StJohn Mackintosh. Few British writers have dared trace the borderlines between lust, insanity and terror so graphically since Clive Barker and J.G. Ballard.

Misanthropic tales of the macabre and the outré with a unique blend of the grotesque and the perverse. Enter the Lovecraftian universe of screaming horrors and Cthulhuvian insanity. Experience dark wonders and fantastic tales in bizarre worlds. These visions are what nightmares are made of. Throbbing at the heart of it all is the grotesque Lord Weÿrdgliffe and his web of penny dreadfuls. In addition: bleak, satirical stories and essays with subjects ranging from the serious to the outrageous and hilarious, plus dark poetry. This collection has it all. Artwork by Allen Koszowski. Foreword by S. T. Joshi. "I cannot speculate who his authorial parents are, perhaps Andre Breton, Jorge Luis Borges and Thomas Ligotti." DON WEBB "The works of Dan Clore collected in this collection are rare jewels of imaginative fiction ... Dan Clore is a mad monk, recording the fantastical histories of an insane alternate universe."
