Vicious Romantic

Wrath James White

Homicide, infanticide, cannibalism, love, and heartbreak, Vicious Romantic is a collection of poems from one of the hardest of the hardcore horror authors. This collection takes the very best elements of Wrath's prose and, using traditional Japanese and Korean formal poetic structures, condenses it into a medium that is both disturbing and thought-provoking. A wife murders her husband and buries him in the desert then visits everyday to lay roses on his grave. A love-sick young man falls victim to a predator. A mother mourns the infant she abandoned in the garbage. A house where the ghosts of murdered children cry out warnings for the living, wendigos, zombies, serial killers, vampires, and even a serial killer murdering a vampire, Wrath's poetry takes traditional horror themes and gives them his own diabolical twist.
