Description

When Mandy Johnson first glimpses a premonition of her body crushed on the tracks of a Toronto subway, fearful of her own mortality, she abdicates responsibility of her life to a tiny piece of Death. From Aurora Award-winner Helen Marshall’s Hair Side, Flesh Side, this short story is one of a set of fifteen quirky and cutting parables about history, memory, and the cost of creating art. ChiZine Publications (CZP) curates the best of the bizarre, bringing you the most excitingly weird, subtle, dark, and disturbing literary fiction.
