Sinopsis

Jon PadgettâÇÖs acclaimed collection/hybrid novel,áThe Secret of Ventriloquism,ánamed the Best Fiction Book byáRue Morgue Magazine,ánow returns in an expanded edition of the original, with three new stories. The book features Dave FeltonâÇÖs iconic cover art and frontispiece as well as a Foreword by the legendary Thomas Ligotti.áWith themes reminiscent of Shirley Jackson, Ligotti, and Bruno Schulz, but with a strikingly unique vision, PadgettâÇÖs work explores the mystery of human suffering, the agony of personal existence, and the ghastly means by which someone might achieve salvation from both. A bullied child seeks vengeance within a bedâÇÖs hollow box spring. A lucid dreamer is haunted by an impossible house. A dummy reveals its own anatomy in 20 simple steps. A paranoid flyerâÇÖs worst fears are realized in a way not even he could imagine. A stuttering librarian holds the key to a mill townâÇÖs unspeakable secrets. A commuterâÇÖs worldview is shattered by two words printed on a cardboard sign. An aspiring ventriloquist spends a little too much time looking at himself in a mirror. A job-fatigued woman seeks out an invisible, identity-blasting hole of alluvium from her past. A spirit of homelessness plans its escape to a possibly mythical mountain. A fog-soaked city heaves its dying breath. And a presence speaks through them all.
