Red Velvet and Absinthe explores love and lust with
otherworldly partners who, by their sheer fantastical
nature, evoke passion and desire far beyond that which any
normal human being can inspire. Although the greats such as
Bram Stoker, Edgar Allan Poe, and Daphne du Maurier are long
dead, these contemporary authors keep the Gothic spirit
alive and well by interpreting it in new and exciting ways.
Red Velvet and Absinthe offers readers a collection of
unique and original stories that conjure up the atmospheric
and romantic spirit of the Gothic masters (and mistresses)
but take things a bit further by adding to the brew a
generous dosage of eroticism. Lie back and listen to the
wind howling outside your window as you read these stories
in the flickering light of a candle, the absinthe you’re
sipping warming your body like the caressing touch of a
lover’s fingers . . .
