This Book Is Cursed

From Adam and Eve's banishment from the Garden, to an emailed chain letter, the tale of curses has always been with us. Often, they are used to punish and spread suffering, far more sinister and harder to escape than a killer's knife. What do you do when math itself becomes a trap? Or when you are certain your shadow is going to eat you? Or when someone's mere presence can wither and blight?Perhaps these twenty-one stories are a warning that anything, no matter how small or benign, can be downright evil. Take care with these pages: this book is cursed.
