I Shudder at Your Touch

This audio presentation consists of four short stories by highly regarded authors. The theme of the collection is erotic horror; all the stories deal in some way with the dark side of sexuality. There is always something special about hearing an author read his own work as in King's darkly comic tale, "The Revelations of 'Becka Paulson." Narrator Graeme Malcolm gives an appropriately sophisticated tone to the chilling story of jealousy, sexual obsession and final revenge, "A Glowing Future." Anne Gartlan gives a perfect rendition of a haughty British aristocrat prone to deadly delusions in "Cleave the Vampire." Eric Conger gives a strong performance with just the right touch of dry humor with "Death and the Single Girl." R.A.R. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
