Tales from the Woeful Platypus

In 2005, Caitlín R. Kiernan surprised her readers with, Frog Toes and Tentacles, a small-form hardcover of "darkly weird erotica." Now Kiernan follows that sold-out volume with a second collection of her unique brand of erotica, Tales from the Woeful Platypus. Like its predecessor, this book will be illustrated by acclaimed artist Vince Locke (The Sandman, Batman, A History of Violence, Deadworld, etc.), and also like the first volume, it is unlikely ever to be reprinted.

The Limited Edition will contain an extra vignette not available anywhere else, as well as a chapbook of exclusive material.
