What to expect
Publishers Weekly Top 10 Horror, SciFi & Fantasy of Fall
Sid Feelings, a successful children’s entertainer, is trapped in a modern nightmare. She’s canceled when a man with whom she shares a name commits a heinous crime. The trouble is only beginning when she hires a mysterious specialist to salvage what’s left of her career. Pulitzer Prize finalist Ed Park’s “The Repairer of Reputations” offers an all-too-real hellscape at the intersection of slashers and cyberspace.
On the flip side of this volume, Park presents the horror classic that inspired him: Robert W. Chambers’s “The Repairer of Reputations,” the groundbreaking tale of paranoia and obsession that launched The King in Yellow.
“[An] eerie curio … Park, who’s gifted at assuming various genre forms, delivers an entertainingly pulpy story here, with plenty of dark humor and lurid scenes, while remaining smart about character.”—Kirkus Reviews
