That Crawling on Your Back Might be a Critter, Dec 8 2009
By John M. Ford "johnDC" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: One Hundred Creepy Little Creature Stories (Hardcover)
These 100 short short stories are all about scary creatures. Some are real, some are standard monsters from our shared cultural imagination--and a few are newly invented by the authors. There is a mix of famous and less known authors in this collection. Some of my favorites are from the better-known authors:
Arthur Conan Doyle's "The American's Tale" seats us in a British club as a stereotypically brash visitor from Arizona tells a story not to be believed.
Ambrose Bierce's "The Damned Thing" takes us to an inquest where the deceased's diary, `so as not to confuse the jury,' is not entered into evidence.
Saki's "Laura" introduces us to a woman whose passions extend into the next life.
Guy de Maupassant's "The Mother of Monsters" instructs us in a different form of prenatal care that may not be as different as we would like to think.
H. P. Lovecraft's "The Unnamable" is... indescribable. Yet the author creates a sense of growing horror with his customary indirect descriptions.
There are a few non-flyers, but most of these stories are good and some are quite good. This is a fine collection to read when you are home alone with your dog. You will gradually begin to wonder about those looks he keeps giving you.
