Metamorphoses: The Carnal Battlefield of Madness
By Wipas Srithong (S.E.A. Write Award–winning author of 'The Dwarf')
[Body Horror Short Story Collection]
In this haunting collection of Body Horror short fiction, Wipas Srithong plunges the reader into the abyssal depths of the self—reaching beyond mere thought and memory to the precarious threshold where "humanity" begins to fracture.
This is not merely a chronicle of distorted anatomy, but a meticulous deconstruction of identity—an unravelling of the self, memory by memory, word by word, and meaning by meaning. Within these pages, the world blurs; time loses its silhouette; the microscopic silence finds a voice, and emptiness itself manifests as a vital organ. Srithong reveals daily existence as a "meaningless ritual"—a repetitive performance we are coerced into enacting.
Srithong invites us to confront the unsettling possibility that our bodies may no longer belong to us. Instead, we may be hosts to something more ancient, more ravenous, and more profoundly "real" than our conscious selves.
