You Will Grow Into Them

Malcolm Devlin

Summary

'Set to become one of the decade's landmarks of English weird.'

– Nina Allan, author of Conquest
WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY ANGELA SLATTER

Malcolm Devlin's debut short-fiction collection, first published in 2017, announced the arrival of a major new talent in the worlds of weird fiction and literary horror.
In You Will Grow Into Them, change is the only constant. These ten stories tackle the unease of transformation, growth, and change in a world where the mundane is only a veneer hiding the darkness below. Childhood anxieties manifest as degraded doppelgängers; fungal blooms are harvested from the backs of dancers; and lycanthropes become the new social pariahs.

In You Will Grow Into Them, the demons we carry inside us are very real indeed.

Available since: 08/08/2024.
