The five stories and one poem in this still, but deep-running issue bring us a bridge that has not forgotten its dead builders and addicts who have forgotten what death is; parasitic ancestors who protect their descendants against a deadly plague and mythical hairy folk who live alongside us; a dark stranger expelled from their home and travelling lost, plus predatory creatures that lurk in our heritage and are never far away… These stories are full of surprises, and of horrors, but also, in their own way, of beauty. I guess we’ll take what we can get, in this sometimes horrifying world.
