Praise for Eric LaRocca: "These stories are body horror at its best--but they also enter the realms of dark relationships, intrusions that change our lives forever, obviously not for the best, the fear of illness, of taking care, of love, of obsession, of attachment. They are nightmarish and they are deeply human. I loved them and also my jaw dropped at how daring they are, how far they go. Eric La Rocca is not only good: there's courage in his literature." Mariana Enriquez, author of Our Share of Night "The Trees Grew Because I Bled There holds you in thrall until the final transgressive act. Here is a collection of stories at once sophisticated and deeply unsettling, each bolder and more spellbinding--and more revelatory--than the last. Eric LaRocca is one of the horror genre's most vital voices." Andy Davidson, author of The Hollow Kind "A powerful collection of eight startling stories. Highly recommended." Ellen Datlow, editor of the annual series The Best Horror of the Year "LaRocca has conjured for us a mad, beautiful tale of dark magic, trauma and love, and how these things intertwine -- this is an author in command of powerful narrative sorceries, and is deserving of your immediate attention." Chuck Wendig, author of The Book of Accidents "Horror fiction doesn't get more emotionally raw than this. A smart, sharp read with echoes of King's Needful Things and Barker's The Damnation Game, Everything the Darkness Eats not only has one hell of a good title, it's one hell of a good book." Bentley Little "Some horror walks you down a dark corridor, where there's whispers and laughter, sobs and screams. Other horror starts down at the end of that corridor, where there's a door that opens on to you don't know what. Read this, and then decide where Eric LaRocca has left you. Not that it matters. There's no way out." Stephen Graham Jones, author of Don't Fear the Reaper "Eric LaRocca's unflinching Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke will crawl inside you, move stuff around, and make you see the world differently, like all great stories do." Paul Tremblay, author of The Pallbearers Club, Praise for This Skin Was Once Mine and Other Disturbances: "LaRocca (Everything the Darkness Eats) is a viral sensation for all the right reasons, showcasing why extreme horror is so resonant, thought-provoking, and necessary. Suggest to fans of Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica and We Are Here To Hurt Each Other by Paula D. Ashe." Library Journal, starred review "Eric LaRocca's distinctive literary voice is a welcome addition to queer horror. I look forward to seeing his legacy grow." Poppy Z. Brite, author of Exquisite Corpse "Eric LaRocca keeps getting better. Grotesque, heartbreaking, and deeply unsettling, this is the kind of transgressive horror that exposes the vulnerable human heart, that reminds us of our shared pain. Just the byline on his work--'by Eric LaRocca'--should be considered a trigger warning. You know going in that it's going to hurt. Caveat lector." Christopher Golden, author of The House of Last Resort and Road of Bones "Eric LaRocca distorts spaces, both internal and external, creating new cavities within our bodies, fresh chasms in our minds, and flooding them with nothing but absolute terror. This Skin Was Once Mine and Other Disturbances makes for exquisite suffering and confirms LaRocca's mantle as the heir apparent to Clive Barker and Poppy Z. Brite. Glory be to the new king of Horror." Clay McLeod Chapman, author of What Kind of Mother and Ghost Eaters "Eric LaRocca is a singular talent, who writes ruthlessly, beautifully, bravely about brutality, who challenges readers to find their humanity, and ultimately hope, in the face of such horrors." Rachel Harrison, author of Black Sheep "It's as if Eric LaRocca's stories are gentle hands, wearing soft gloves, that lead you for some distance before you feel the pins pricking your palms and fingers. And when you do, the grip tightens. An author who effortlessly taps into human madness and deviancy and then recreates it artfully." Adam Nevill, author of The Ritual and Last Days "A twisty, intricate gathering of bleak fates. Beneath the skin of delicate prose lies indelicate menace. Eric LaRocca has penned a book that's obsessively captivating, wherein even hope hurts like a shard of glass." Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Queen of Teeth "An intense collection that stalks its way around the kinship between pleasure and pain. LaRocca's tremendous empathy allows him to look unblinkingly at the dark corners that others turn away from, in a way that makes his horror not only devastating but heartbreaking." Brian Evenson, author of The Glassy, Burning Floor of Hell "These raw and brilliant stories lure you in and then slice you to the core. Their terrors and scars will persist. Cutting, insightful horror from a new master." Tim Lebbon, author of The Silence and Among the Living, Praise for This Skin Was Once Mine and Other Disturbances: "Dreamy and gut-churning...Readers searching for visceral horrors need look no further." -Publishers Weekly "LaRocca (Everything the Darkness Eats) is a viral sensation for all the right reasons, showcasing why extreme horror is so resonant, thought-provoking, and necessary. Suggest to fans of Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica and We Are Here To Hurt Each Other by Paula D. Ashe." -Library Journal (starred review) "Readers will be mesmerized by these stories and their engaging narration, experiencing the full gamut of emotions, from disgust to wonder, held rapt as the illicit lure of the shadowy side of humanity is tantalizingly revealed." --Library Journal (starred review) "Listeners seeking classically told horror with the bite of visceral splatterpunk need look no further. A mesmerizing and unputdownable collection that shocks, provokes, and appalls." - Library Journal starred review (Audio Edition) "Eric LaRocca's distinctive literary voice is a welcome addition to queer horror. I look forward to seeing his legacy grow." Poppy Z. Brite, author of Exquisite Corpse "Eric LaRocca keeps getting better.
