Description
Stories that blur the boundaries between the fantastic and the real world. In twelve unforgettable tales of Less Known Monsters of the 21st Century, the strange becomes familiar and the familiar becomes strange. The author promises a modern bestiary in the title, but that does not mean a collection of superficial caricatures or grotesque curiosities. Whether we are dealing with a girl who grows wings from her ankles, a gigantic colony of sea organisms approaching the shore, or 'just' a suspicious death of a famous mountaineer, the stories indirectly and subtly touch on our approach to the past, nature, technology, and other people. Kim Fu continues the tradition of fantastic short stories built on a strong idea and often surprising twist, effortlessly switching between various styles and adeptly approaching such different genres as prose poetry or erotic literature.
