In Absence is the fresh and frightening short story collection by Laura Diaz de Arce.

Enjoy tales of shape-shifting nature beasts, an affectionate giant squid, an ancient Greek drama on the subway, a Sinatra-loving were-goat, take a trip to a museum in Hell, and more.

What brings together this eclectic work that spans genres, tone, and voice is the exploration of the varying shades of

grief. Like MONSTROSITY: Tales of Transformation, readers are sure to find works that pull at their heartstrings while still delivering on gore and body horror.
