Author Description

What the Giants were Saying was simultaneously David Rix's first book and the first release from the quietly maverick Eibonvale Press back in 2005. A ferocious, visceral and shocking fable on art and creativity... and blood, and flesh, and madness, and copper wire, and magic tattoos, and wind turbines. And the dark and selfish places that relationships can go when they break down. Now, as we creep towards twenty years later, it was definitely time to take another look at this book and release a new revised and expanded version. Comprehensively edited throughout and with many new stories, this new edition of What the Giants were Saying joins Feather to provide a complete collection of Rix's earlier works. In addition to the original contents, this volume contains stories that were published in various anthologies, notably the Strange Tales series from Tartarus Press, some unpublished pieces, as well as a small section of extremely early works and juvenilia, just for the curious.
