On Sundays, She Picked Flowers

When Judith Rice killed her mother, she thought she put an end to the woman's hold on her. Seventeen years later, secluded deep in the woods of northern Georgia, Jude knows that the past isn't all that easy to discard. Alone with her strange house and even stranger woods, Jude must grapple with ghosts, haints, beasts, and an enigmatic woman who threatens to undo the tentative peace Jude's built for herself by fanning the violence that lives just underneath her skin.(less)

A pregnant woman is devoured by an unsettling hunger. A man is buried alive, punished for a crime that is none. A boy goes missing, and he returns, changed. In this collection of nine disturbing horror stories, the author of On Sundays, She Picked Flowers explores themes of disconcerting appetites of body and mind, of decay and the restless dead. Yah Yah Scholfield skillfully engages with Southern Gothic and Afro-Gothic traditions to create unsettling tales about nature, religion, and the body. Just a Little Snack is a perfect treat for fans of Her Body and Other Parties and What Moves the Dead.

Sandra T

Multitude of Visions: Liminal Spaces in 3D as the name suggest, is a collaborative work between two writers, Sandra T and Yah Yah Scholfield. It is a collection of 20 short stories uniquely set in 10 universes. Each writer tell a story, with their own visions, about characters of these worlds hold. Multitude of Visions: Liminal Spaces in 3D uses the inter-dimensionalilty of liminal spaces to explore and then process the human emotion and what the immediacy of a space does to the human mind. In one world, they explore the plight of ageism with how it affects women of that time, as well as the generations of women headed to the inevitable path of the death of youthfulness. The same story told in two point of views: one of romance and in another, a eulogy. Intrinsically non-narrative in its format, this collection of short stories really delves into the schema of humankind, the fear of the unknown, and the spectrum of the psyche with a speculative flare.
