Product Description
Review
"Detroit News" With elegant, terrifying strokes, Barker draws a universe of fear underlying the commonplace....Behind every mirror, under every carpet and in the heart of dirty streets is an elemental evil, a raw and hungry power....This is good, scary, stuff...The pacing is inexorable, the settings chilling, and the fates remorseless. "In the Flesh" makes you wonder what horror lies around the corner.

Product Description
Terrifying and forbidding, subversive and insightful, Clive Barker's groundbreaking stories revolutionized the worlds of horrific and fantastical fiction and established Barker's dominance over the otherworldly and the all-too-real. Here, as two businessmen encounter beautiful and seductive women and an earnest young woman researches a city slum, Barker maps the boundless vistas of the unfettered imagination -- only to uncover a profound sense of terror and overwhelming dread.

This is just one of the Books of Blood under a different title.
I'm disgusted at Amazon doing this. They're blatantly selling this under false pretenses, and it's not just Clive's work. If you come across a book by a favourite author that you've never heard of, be sure to Google it first to be sure.

For those who are unfamiliar with his work, I've found that this book is an incredible introduction to the world of Clive Barker. It is more than just come spooky stories. Rather, each story stretches the limits of your imagination and forces you to question your personal perception of reality. I haven't found a book that gave me the shivers this much since Stephen King's Salem's Lot.

Not one of Barkers most memorable books I have to admit. The book it's self was over and done with very quickly. The storyline however was as good as ever. Recommended for Barker readers
