Still Life With Peckerwood

Inspired by a Gahan Wilson cartoon illustration and the mysterious legend of the "lost" poet of Georgia, Thomas Holley Chivers, this is a supernatural tale of larceny and tragedy. From Philip Nutman’s Cities of Night, this tale is one of a dozen stories leaping from Atlanta to Blackpool, London to New York, from Rome to Albuquerque via the city of Lost Angels—all cities of night. ChiZine Publications (CZP) curates the best of the bizarre, bringing you the most excitingly weird, subtle, dark, and disturbing literary fiction.
