Overview: From the man who has brought you more than twenty books of dark fiction and fantasy, unforgettable horror movies such Hellraiser and Candyman and countless paintings and illustrations, this is the first-ever collection of Clive Barker’s nonfiction. Representing more than 25 years of writing, The Painter, the Creature and the Father of Lies contains all the introductions he’s written for his own works, all the forewords and afterwords he’s written on other people’s works and essays and articles written for magazines on the horror genre and other topics.
These have never been collected together and many are nearly impossible to track down. Furthermore, from Barker’s personal archives: a couple of unpublished pieces, including an unused self-penned introduction to Volume 1 of the Books of Blood from 1983 written from the point of view of a demon interviewing Clive Barker.
The editors, Phil Stokes and Sarah Stokes, who operate the official Clive Barker website, have spent several years compiling these pieces to produce a truly definitive work. This collection features a new foreword by Barker, an introduction by the Stokes and new illustrations by Barker.
If you haven’t read any of Barker’s nonfiction, you’ll find that it’s just as compelling, enjoyable and well-written as his fiction. These pieces cover the inspirations for his works, insights into the creative process and musings on art and the horror genre. Don’t miss this landmark collection from a modern master of horror and dark fantasy.
