Crime Album Stories won't be for everyone, some folks like their horror fiction purely fictitious, and some of the images are certainly hard to take no matter who you are. But Eugenia Parry has accomplished something truly unique here, an unusual and gorgeous symphony of words and images that is ultimately very satisfying aesthetically. If you can handle the graphic nature of this book, don't let it slip by. Unfortunately, it doesn't strike me as the type of thing that will stay in print very long. Efforts this far from the accepted norms of publishing rarely do.
Fiction can be too.
But the right combination can be very potent stuff.
