For You the Living — Wayne Allen Sallee

From Chicago Horror author Wayne Allen Sallee comes this collection of zombie stories, told in the way only Sallee can, brutal, stark, filled with pain. Jay Bonansinga, co-author of THE WALKING DEAD and bestselling author of PERFECT VICTIM and PINKERTON'S WAR says of the title story: Chicago has its share of treasures ? deep dish, the Bean, Kingston?s blues, and Wayne Allen Sallee. Toiling in the stubborn vineyard of short fiction for most of his career, Sallee reaches a sort of a literary apogee with his brilliant and brutal horror novella ?For You, The Living.? Ostensibly a plague tale, told in classic Lovecraftian diary form, Sallee?s yarn manages to deftly mingle the deeply personal with the gruesomely Grand Guignol. Riveting, ghastly, hilarious, creepy, and unforgettably Wayne-like, ?For You, the Living? is at once a wholly original take on the zombie apocalypse genre while at the same time a heart-wrenching love story. This one will haunt you forever, folks. Highest recommendation!?
