Description
In a labyrinthine research facility, where opening the wrong door may reveal that it has disappeared or that the footsteps being pursued are one’s own, an unnamed protagonist begins a night shift under the watchful eye of the enigmatic senior guard. Each evening, as fluorescent lights flicker and the silence grows heavier, the guard tells another story of cursed objects and lives unravelled by vengeance, sorrow or revelation. These are not merely ghost stories, but warnings, lessons or perhaps confessions. As the nights lengthen and reality begins to fray, the protagonist suspects that the building itself is alive with malevolent intent and that the objects under their care are not simply cursed. They are waiting and watching. Equal parts chilling, wryly funny and deeply political, this literary horror novel presents strange, hypnotic and audacious visions in which ghost stories make the real world hazy and askew.
