“Even if we are incapable of a sincere belief in ancient cults and their unheard of idols, even if these pseudonymous adventurers and archaeologists appear to be mere shadows on a wall, and even if strange houses on remote islands are of shaky construction, there may still be a power in these things that threatens us like a bad dream. And this power emanates not so much from within the tale as it does from somewhere behind it, someplace of infinite darkness and ubiquitous evil in which we may walk unaware.”
Thomas Ligotti - “Nethescurial”

GLASS STORIES by Ivy Grimes

Synopsis


Glass Stories by Ivy Grimes is a collection of seventeen darkly weird and humorous tales that reflect the essence of Angela Carter, Shirley Jackson, Kelly Link, and Haruki Murakami’s storytelling. Grimes explores the spectral nature of glass in everyday objects, taking readers from purgatory to the Bible Belt, through narratives that shimmer with the uncanny and the absurd. An old woman invites two strangers into her glass tower, a woman gives birth under the glow of a glass gift from her late mother, a bookstore clerk’s mundane existence is shattered by a glass book, and a man untangles his mother’s fears through a glass oddity. From the menacing presence of a glass angel to a glass pet protector who eats light, each story is a pane that illuminates the characters’ deepest trials and whims. We witness a teen reinventing herself amidst glass coffins, two elderly brothers opening old wounds in a glass museum, a bride bedazzled by a glass apple given to her as a wedding present, an aggrieved daughter trapped atop a glass mountain by her father, and a captive woman who glimpses salvation through a mirror. The singular tales in Glass Stories entrance and delight.

CADABRA RECORDS: "The Tsalal" by Thomas Ligotti
Feb 23, 2024 - 3:00 PM - by dr. locrian








This Cadabra Records Ligotti double album, to me, with astonishing art by Grady Gordon, is the most aesthetically pleasing work they've produced to date. Yes, I'm biased. But dear Yog, this is gorgeous.

"ON SALE NOW! The Tsalal by Thomas Ligotti 2x LP set. Read by Jon Padgett and scored by Chris Bozzone. Liner notes by Michael Cisco. Packaged in a triple panel gatefold sleeve with art by Grady Gordon. Oversees customers can purchase through Psilowave. We have less than 100x copies to go around, so don’t sleep on this incredible production!!"

If you really want to know Ligotti's take on all things TSALAL, buy this. It begs to be heard read aloud.

Buy here if in the states.

Buy here if overseas (only 4 left!)

"We’re soon to launch a brand new magazine we’re calling Nightlands. Each issue is dedicated to a corresponding book. Our very first issue is themed after the Ligotti and Trenz screenplays and is only available through purchase of Michigan Basement. Each issue will average between 24 to 36 pages and will be sold for printing costs, included in the price of our books. Every few issues will be collected and expanded with additional material and sold individually as single volumes. In the near future we have titles by Mark Samuels, Matthew M. Bartlett, Thomas Ligotti, T. E. D. Klein, H. P. Lovecraft with more to come, so you can only imagine how fun this magazine is going to be. Shown is cover art by Joe Keinberger and back cover art by Dave Felton."
