ADVENTURES IN MEAT
by Tony Arnold - White Devil Press
Reality has a body, and it's about to turn itself inside out.
Somewhere between the pulp adventure magazines of a lost century and the outer fringes of cosmic horror sits Adventures in Meat - a collection of interdimensional misadventures where the fabric of the universe doesn't tear so much as it sweats. An accountant vanishes mid-bite of creamed chipped beef on toast and lands barefoot under three suns, hunted by shapeshifting peacock-flesh apparitions. A hedonistic physicist stumbles into a jungle theology built entirely around the meaning of manifestation and desire. A castaway maps a labyrinthine planet where mountains migrate and time refuses to hold still - while unclassifiable civilizations trade in fragments of stabilized flesh like currency from another dimension entirely.
Equal parts satire, science fiction, body horror, and philosophical fever dream, these stories careen from the deliriously absurd to the genuinely unsettling - often within the same paragraph. Erudite footnotes collide with pulp-magazine bravado. Cosmic dread arrives dressed as comedy. Nothing here behaves the way it should, least of all the flesh itself.
If you've ever wondered what happens when high literary ambition gets thrown into a blender with 1970s men's-adventure magazines and a healthy suspicion that the universe is laughing at you - Adventures in Meat is your answer.
Consume accordingly.
