Omschrijving

Octavo, eleven engravings by Ladislav Hanka, black cloth with three quarter marble board front.

A short ghost story specifically written for this publisher. David, a young boy, tries to navigate family tensions during a visit to his grandparents for the Christmas holidays. David's mother has recently been abandoned by her husband, and David's grandmother, who is struggling with dementia, obsesses over a plastic Santa Claus decoration coming loose from the roof of her house. The narrative slowly builds to a terrifying, ambiguous climax. THE DECORATIONS was later selected as the lead story by editor Stephen Jones for The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror (2006).
