Description

PLEASURE TO BURN contains the finalists from the 2019 Literary Taxidermy Short Story Competition--a contest that invites aspiring writers to stitch together their own stories using the first and last lines from a classic work of fiction. This year's participants were given the opening and closing lines of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, so every story in this anthology starts and ends exactly the same way--and yet the stories themselves are nothing alike! From a cheerful cannibal to a transhuman plastivore, from a lovesick angel to a text-messaging devil, from a lonely teen with intimacy issues to a sultry virago who literally sets her bed afire--you've never read a collection of stories like this one! Mystery, suspense, horror, crypto-mythology, science fiction, poetry, teen strife, erotica, humor. These stories are as different from one another as the 21 savvy authors who dreamt them up. So grab a copy now! Meet this year's finalists. These are all stories with pleasure to burn! Learn more about literary taxidermy, as well as future contests, by visiting literarytaxidermy.com.
