About This Title:
The Devil's Wine
edited by Tom Piccirilli
"Poetry is the devil's wine."
-- St. Augustine
Cemetery Dance Publications is proud to announce The Devil's Wine,
a poetry anthology edited by best-selling author Tom Piccirilli. 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 haven't seen print in over 30 years--this
is the only time they have ever been reprinted!
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" and that's about
the best description we've heard yet.
The Devil's Wine will be issued in two unique states: a Trade Hardcover
edition for $40 (featuring our usual high-quality, smyth-sewn cloth binding,
full-color dustjacket, etc) and a Deluxe Lettered Edition for $250 (featuring
a handmade traycase, additional artwork, and completely unique hand-binding--in
other words, a completely different book to hold in your hands! Signed only
by editor Tom Piccirilli and artist Caniglia!).
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)
