✦ Synopsis

Review

"She brings to the literature a subtlety and power which, sometimes shading into horror, is a quite distinctive voice demanding to be heard." --The Independent on Sunday (London)

"Lisa Tuttle's short stories have a way of lingering long after you've read them." --The Good Book Guide, August 1987

"Her stories are emotionally uncomfortable . . . they're powerful, they're brilliant, they hurt -- and they're very special. They not only make you think, they make you feel." --David V. Barrett, City Limits

"Lisa Tuttle's 'Food Man' . . . portrays a teenage girl's eating disorder as an incubus that comes to life out of the food she hides under her bed. Tuttle ingeniously and unexpectedly resolves the tension between food and sex with an ending reminiscent of insect mating rituals." --Publisher's Weekly

Product Description

The introduction begins, "Im fascinated by ghosts, and entertain all sorts of theories about what they really are. That hauntings are caused by the uneasy dead, by spirits unable to find rest, seems to me the least likely explanation. . . ." Veteran fantasy and horror author Lisa Tuttle has assembled thirteen of her imaginative inquiries into the nature of ghosts and the people they visit, covering territory from gothic romance to the just plain creepy. Incisive, moving, and unsettling, GHOSTS AND OTHER LOVERS should appeal to both fans of the classic ghost story and those seeking bold new psychological fantasy.
