You Will Grow Into Them

'Set to become one of the decade's landmarks of English weird.' - Nina Allan, author of Conquest WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY ANGELA SLATTER Malcolm Devlin's debut short-fiction collection, first published in 2017, announced the arrival of a major new talent in the worlds of weird fiction and literary horror. In You Will Grow Into Them, change is the only constant. These ten stories tackle the unease of transformation, growth, and change in a world where the mundane is only a veneer hiding the darkness below. Childhood anxieties manifest as degraded doppelgängers; fungal blooms are harvested from the backs of dancers; and lycanthropes become the new social pariahs. In You Will Grow Into Them, the demons we carry inside us are very real indeed.

Malcolm Devlin is the author of And Then I Woke Up (2022), Engines Beneath Us (2019) and the collections You Will Grow Into Them (2017) and Unexpected Places to Fall From (2021). His short fiction has been published in Interzone, Black Static and Shadows and Tall Trees. He currently lives in Brisbane, Australia.
