Lauded by critics yet largely unappreciated by fans of horror and
""weird fiction,"" T.E.D. Klein is considered one of the great
horror writers, despite his scant body of work. His prose blends
the mundane and the supernatural, conjuring the monstrous and the
malign with accessible but charged discourse that breaks with the
formulaic entries in the genre. Exploring a range of topics from
religious fundamentalism and Right Wing extremism to fashionable
pessimism and the rise of ""digital humanities,"" the author argues
that Klein's work is a prime example of what he terms ""critical
horror,"" a distinct subgenre that entertains while questioning
individual and cultural complacency.
