Toward Graphic Belles Lettres

tgbl

My book “Toward Graphic Belles Lettres”  is sold out.  But here is one of its stories :

“BEHEST WITH 5 FINGERS”

This title was inspired by the 1928 classic horror strory “The Beast With Five Fingers” by William Fryer Harvey.  Harvey’s tale was about a hand after it was severed from a body.  Our story, conversely, is about a body before it is severed from a hand.  Such mere details notwithstanding, “Behest With 5 Fingers” was named in homage to a giant of the genre.
