About this book
Two interwoven memoirs of love loss and family with a haunted frightening edge. In 2000 American Fantasy Press published an unassuming chapbook titled The Man on the Ceiling. Inside was a dark surreal discomfiting story of the horrors that can befall a family. It was so powerful that it won the Bram Stoker Award International Horror Guild Award and World Fantasy Award--the only work ever to win all three. Now Melanie Tem and Steve Rasnic Tem have re-imagined the story expanding on the ideas to create a compelling work that examines how people find a family how they hold a family together despite incomprehensible tragedy and how in the end they find love. Loosely autobiographical The Man on the Ceiling has the feel of a family portrait painted by Salvador Dali where story and reality blend to find the one thing that neither can offer alone: truth.
