Publisher's Description
A terrifying supernatural entity haunts Toronto’s gay neighborhood in this modern horror masterpiece spanning decades of struggle and resistance.
“RED X by David Demchuk is THE great horror novel of the 2020s so far . . . No tricks, no gimmicks, pure greatness.” —Daniel Kraus
In 1984, a young gay man in Toronto vanishes without a trace. He leaves behind a community of friends and lovers desperate for answers but facing the casual indifference, or outright prejudice, of the broader world. As decades pass, more men, all gay, vanish in the same way.
As the novel reveals a terrifying, centuries-old demonic presence at the heart of the disappearances, the author David Demchuk intersperses autobiographical vignettes from his own life: his earliest brushes with death and fear, his observations on queer culture and the horror genre, on representation and erasure, culminating in an elegiac and brilliantly woven narrative that blends fact and fiction.
A masterful experimental work, RED X has already been heralded as one of the great horror novels of the twenty-first century. Reissued now with deluxe materials and a new introduction, David Demchuk’s modern cult classic is not to be missed.
