I contenuti

Leprosy. Melded bones. Even hornism (the phenomenon of having a horn growing out of the human body). All are on display in Boy of Bone, dramatized and illustrated in jaw-dropping and perhaps most surprisingly, life-affirming fashion. With a remarkable new voice, K. R. Sands' storytelling combines the thrill of the best horror stories with the depth of classic literature. Jon Lezinsky's masterly, multitextured illustrations provide a compelling visual and emotional dimension. The result is a chilling, atmospheric work that pushes the reader's imagination to new limits.
