Conspiracy of Birds: Deluxe Edition

By Tim Murr

Like Lovecraft's Dream-Quest of Forgotten Kadath by way of David Lynch, Tim Murr's Conspiracy of Birds is a winding journey into a living hell. Inspired by the author's real life reoccurring nightmares about an impossible, mysterious city.
This deluxe edition of the 2011 novella is re-edited and reformatted and includes the dark, downbeat poetry and prose collection Hounds of Doom, a newly edited Lose This Skin: Best of the Short Works 1994-2011, and the never before published lost novelette Choked by Kudzu-a Beat punk story of surviving heartbreak and finding oneself, written in the late 90s.
Fans of Murr's work in horror and crime fiction will be able to see the foundational, post-modernist and experimental storytelling that led to works like The Gray Man and Summer's Venomous Kiss. Steeped in the writings of Kathy Acker, Lydia Lunch, Flannery O'Connor, and William Burroughs, as well as the films of Dario Argento and David Lynch, Conspiracy of Birds is Murr going full Ahab and spitting into the abyss.
