{"product_id":"9781324092827","title":"The Werewolf at Dusk: And Other Stories by David Small","description":"Following the internationally acclaimed publication of Stitches, David Small emerged as a storied figure in graphic literature, eliciting comparisons to Stan Lee and Alfred Hitchcock. Werewolf at Dusk, appearing fifteen years later, is his homage to ageing-gracefully or otherwise. The three stories in this collection are linked, Small writes, \"by the dread of things internal\". In the title story, an adaptation of Lincoln Michel's much-loved short, the dread is that of a man who has reached old age with something repellant-even bestial-in his nature. The spectre of old age also haunts the semi-autobiographical story \"A Walk in the Old City\", with its looming spiders and cascading brain-matter-a dreamscape that gives way to the ominous environs of 1930s Berlin in the final story, a reinterpretation of Jean Ferry's \"The Tiger in Vogue\". As fluid as manga and rife with unsettling imagery, Werewolf at Dusk affirms Small's place as a modern master of graphic fiction.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56297523970421,"sku":"9781324092827","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781324092827.jpg?v=1762780780","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781324092827","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
