A dissolute trust-fund kid living in Brooklyn reconnects with his estranged sister after her debut art exhibition causes people to go insane.

An epidemic of extreme anxiety caused by widespread societal collapse is treated with a controversial and mysterious new drug named after the Maya underworld. A desperate man risks his life to seek sexual salvation from the queen of a ghostly castle who may or may not exist.

These are some of the stories in Cursed Images, where satire and nightmare, the erotic and the grotesque, prophecy and confession merge in a disturbing and spellbinding alchemy.

Cursed Images is a dream-journal of late capitalism, a Gothic tarot of desire and fear.

Industry Reviews

"Reuben Dendinger's Cursed Images is a triumph. It is a book that shows remarkable panache and assurance: in the potency of its weird conceptions, in its elegant and smooth-flowing prose, in the compelling narrative pace that keeps the reader enthralled, and in the subtle way in which the author draws upon the work of Lovecraft, Ligotti, Chambers, and others while remaining true to himself and shedding baleful insights upon our troubled age. With this one book Dendinger stakes his claim to be at the forefront of contemporary weird fiction."

- S. T. Joshi, author of I Am Providence: The Life and Times of H.P. Lovecraft
