"Here is how monstrous humans are。"

A sentient， murderous prosthetic leg; shadowy creatures lurking behind a shimmering wall; brutal barrow men--of all the terrors that populate The Glassy， Burning Floor of Hell， perhaps the most alarming are the beings who decimated the habitable Earth: humans。 In this new short story collection， Brian Evenson envisions a chilling future beyond the Anthropocene that forces excruciating decisions about survival and self-sacrifice in the face of toxic air and a natural world torn between revenge and regeneration。 Combining psychological and ecological horror， each tale thrums with Evenson's award-winning literary craftsmanship， dark humor， and thrilling suspense。
