Book synopsis

Redefines the genre of horror fiction, calling into question the usual conventions, motifs, and elements. Unlike many critics of this genre, the author sees dis/affirmative horror fiction acting neither to soothe fears nor reduce them to the vicarious "thrills 'n' chills" mode, but as intensifying the fears inherent in everyday life.
