>Maybe a little necrophilia with your cannibalism?

I have posted an image of this book for several years and have never had anyone reply.

Truly ghoulish

Read this book.

Anyone else read pic related? I'm surprised it isn't more popular here. Literary, clever, and disgusting.

I don't suppose anyone knows where to download this WITH the illustrations?

Wow, that one anon wasn't kidding: this book has a lot of necrophilia. But it's really good, especially the black and ironic humor

Post your gems.

What can I say about this book, aside from, "fuck that's a lot of necrophilia?" It's practically designed to be outrageous but isn't without subtlety and intelligence.

The titular novella is my favorite part, perhaps contending with the story of the necromancer who raises the corpses of two separated lovers for its portrayal of the reanimated dead alone. Meryphillia, the story of how a young woman becomes a ghoul is also pretty ingenious.

For horror novels, try this one; surprised it's not the darling of /lit/ yet.

Find a copy of this if you can. It's hilarious and creepy and all kinds of fucked up. Writing is good too.

Not every story is a winner. But the ghoul stories, especially Meryphillia, are worth it.
