Wretch: or, The Unbecoming of Porcelain Khaw

Praise for Eric LaRocca:

The stories collected here are by turns confident, brutal, and breathtaking... must-read horror The New York Times

These stories are body horror at its best... Eric La Rocca is not only good: there's courage in his literature.
-Mariana Enriquez, author of Our Share of Night

Some horror walks you down a dark corridor, where there's whispers and laughter, sobs and screams. Other horror starts down at the end of that corridor, where there's a door that opens on to you don't know what. Read this, and then decide where Eric LaRocca has left you. Not that it matters. There's no way out.
-Stephen Graham Jones, author of My Heart is a Chainsaw and The Buffalo Hunter Hunter

Not since Twin Peaks has there been a town quite like Burnt Sparrow, where nightmares, secrets, cruelty, and longing are the currency. Your visit will be harrowing and it will cut you to the quick, but you'll want to return as soon as possible.
-Paul Tremblay, author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts

LaRocca is a maestro of the horrific, surreal, and uncanny, and his work never fails to illuminate the dark epicenter of the human condition while offering the suggestion of hope-maybe. Every tale is one that will leave you shaking and breathless, yet like a car wreck, you're helpless to look away.
-Ronald Malfi, author of Senseless and Come With Me

The kind of horror fiction that braves the truth and demands to be read. Take the risk and enrich your imagination.
-Ramsey Campbell, author of The Hungry Moon and The Grin of the Dark
