A latticework creates a mesmerising pattern, one which pleases the eye and draws the onlooker closer. Emotional lattices are connected strands that amplify the human experience; our melancholy, our mistakes, and our residual power. Fourteen lattices by a diverse author makes Latticework an occult treat, worthy of fans who dip into the disturbing and diabolical. This collection of soulful tales embodies the macabre and the metaphysical, with insights so serrated it cuts to the marrow.

These are the afterthought tales - bite-size chunks of a life’s grander design, something to gnaw on briefly before moving on. A few recorded moments in time that will ask of you a few minutes of your day. A breathy laugh might follow, or "Oh, yes, I see myself in there!" Maybe, a morsel gifts a smile, while a tale creates a sense of wonder. Enjoy!
