Sequel to Findley Black and the Ghosts of Printer's Devil
Findley Black knows a little something about serial killers. What he doesn't know is why anyone would want to reenact a series of murders that took place more than ninety years ago, which he's read a great deal about as part of his annual Halloween ghosts tours. Unless, of course, it's not a copycat at all and the Reaper of Shivelly Park is back for vengeance.
Owen Key never considered himself...

These essays explore the troubling relationship between narrative meaning and representations of violence within Findley's novels. Although Findley clearly admires the modernist texts which appear in his own fiction, his novels also reveal how the modernist search for metaphoric unity and meaning in the face of real social and political fragmentation often reflects an aesthetic akin to that of fascism.
