"Poetry is the devil's wine." — St. Augustine
The poetry found within The Devil's Wine is deeply moving, affecting,
and deals with the human condition in a way that only those who've danced along
the edge of the abyss are capable of understanding. One of the contributors,
Jay Bonansinga, calls The Devil's Wine "a unique compendium of
thriller writers moonlighting in the world of dark verse."
The contributors include Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, Peter Straub, Graham Masterton,
Charles De Lint, Jack Ketchum, Joe Haldeman, Michael Bishop, Jack Cady, Steve
Rasnic Tem, Melanie Tem, Peter Crowther, TM Wright, Brian Hodge, Edward Lee,
Elizabeth Massie, Jay Bonansinga, and Tamara Thorne.
The Cemetery Dance hardcover is the only edition for this
title, and many of the nearly 200 poems have never appeared anywhere else. Stephen
King's amazing contributions were originally published in small venues during
his college years and these publications now resell for thousands of dollars
due to their scarcity. The King poems hadn't seen print in over 30 years—this
is the only time they have ever been reprinted!
This very special volume is a must-have for any collector of modern horror and any lover of good, scary poetry.
Available in two states:
Trade Hardcover Edition bound in full cloth ($40)
Traycased Lettered Edition of 52 signed and lettered copies featuring
a handmade traycase, additional artwork, completely unique hand-binding, and
signed by the editor and artist ($250)
