Reseña del libro "Demo Reels and Arthouse Madness: A Collection of Dark Verse (en Inglés)"
Demo Reels and Arthouse Madness collects poetry from a self-identified unapologetic horror and pop culture junkie. Bram Stoker(R) Award winner Liaguno presents more than 50 poems packed with modern observations that explore everything from our slasher movie obsession to the work week rhythm that drives so many of us. With a lyrical cadence and all-out alliteration, Liaguno weaves short films for the mind from surprising angles, resuscitating familiar themes into ghoulish, garish technicolor life. Delving into both subcultures and subgenres with a dark cinematic aesthetic allows the subjects contained within to flourish with broad appeal, while retaining gritty and artistic relevance. Liaguno invites you into a world of fearless and fear-inducing verse that dares to play with nostalgic horror in unexpected ways."Like a seafaring Sigourney Weaver-which is one of a whole book of on-point references in here-Vince Liaguno sails out into the turbid, frothy waters of horror, and what he comes back with are these poems, which we can all feast on."-Stephen Graham Jones, award-winning author of I Was a Teenage Slasher, The Only Good Indians, and the Indian Lake Trilogy"Vince Liaguno's debut poetry collection transports the reader by way of dark poetic vignettes, each piece its own cinematic vision that are both familiar and chilling to the bone. Every line puts the reader on the edge of their seat as if they were watching each stanza unfold on some shadowy silver screen." -Maxwell I. Gold, Bram Stoker Award(R) nominated author of Tiny Oblivions and Mutual Self Destructions "Captivating madness runs like a film through Liaguno's mesmerizing collection. Every poem, another shadowy scene in the unwinding movie of this book. Each piece carried me from the first line, breathlessly to the final stanza. The delightful Afterword has a list of films, mostly horror, that inspired the dark beauty in his poetry."-Linda D. Addison, multi-award-winning author and SFPA Grand Master of Fantastic Poetry
