    <![CDATA[The Grim Trixter is back, this time with a limited edition chapbook collection of more than 30 hauntingly evocative poems that explore everything from nursery rhymes to modern serial killers. Schwan’s voice brings beauty to the horrors of the world around her, yet infuses objects of seeming innocence with such a shadowed nature that one cannot help but see that behind her pen is, in the words of her poem “Hands and Dues Paid a Muse,” a mind holding devious things.<br/><br/>Rest, rest in silence<br/>Silence where we love to dissect<br/>What might have been living when ink<br/>Was more important<br/>And it was, Truly, it was.<br/>~from “Worm God,” in Catacombs and Photographs<br/><br/>Each poem tells a story complete in itself, but together the collection forms a collection of photographs that capture the moments of deepest emotion when the world is raw and vulnerable and at its most beautiful to those who know how to see.<br/><br/>Only 100 signed copies will be sold.<br/><br/>Features an introduction by Richard Doetsch, author of The Thieves of Heaven and The Thieves of Faith (Dell Books).]]>
