Synopsis

From one of the most critically acclaimed and beloved storytellers of our time comes a major new collection of stories, now available in a pulp-inspired mass market edition with cover art by renowned artist Robert McGinnis!

In this wide-ranging collection of short
fiction, Neil Gaiman pierces the veil of reality to reveal the enigmatic,
shadowy world that lies beneath. This rich compendium features stories and poetry that transport us deep into the realm of
imagination—where the fantastical becomes real and the everyday incandescent—including
an original American Gods novella in which Shadow Moon finds himself
drawn into the dark and murderous mystery of the “Black Dog” in the English
Peak District.

Horror and ghost
stories, speculative fiction and fairy tales, fabulism and verse—all combine to
illustrate the strength and breadth of Gaiman's storytelling mastery and cement
his reputation as one of the finest writers at work today.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

"We each have our little triggers . . . things that wait for us in the dark corridors of our lives." So says Neil Gaiman in his introduction to Trigger Warning, a remarkable compendium of twenty-five stories and poems that explore the transformative power of imagination. Here is a rich cornucopia of horror and ghost stories, science fiction and fairy tales, fabulism and poetry that chart the wilds of experience and emotion. In "Adventure Story"—a thematic companion to the bestselling novel The Ocean at the End of the Lane—Gaiman ponders death and the ways that people take their stories with them when they die. Also included is "Nothing O'Clock," a special Doctor Who story that was written for the beloved series, as well as the never-before-published "Black Dog," a haunting new tale that revisits the world of American Gods as Shadow Moon stops in at a village pub on his way back to America.

Trigger Warning is a treasury of literary delights that engage the mind, stir the heart, and shake the soul.
