Description
xNote From the Publisher:
Tormented Flesh is less an anthology than an infestation, a collection of voices that should have been silenced but weren't. These are the testimonies of those who have seen beyond the veil of ordinary existence and returned with nothing but horror. It is a book that should not be read so much as succumbed to.
James Nulick has assembled something truly malign here-not a selection of stories, but a series of transmissions from a world where the flesh is not a vessel, but a prison. The writers in this collection understand that to exist is to suffer, that the body is a mistake, and that every moment of consciousness is an exercise in slow erosion. Their words will take root in you, spreading like a sickness.
Naturally, this book was passed over by those who still believe in meaning, those who think horror should resolve into something digestible, something polite. But Tormented Flesh is not interested in catharsis. It does not offer escape, only deeper entrapment. It lingers. It waits.
This is not a book to be enjoyed. It is a book to be endured, to be lived with, until it alters you in ways you cannot articulate. Open it, and you will not come away unchanged. Anxiety Press does not deal in comfort-we deal in inevitabilities.
