A Darker Side of Noir is a collection of short stories of body horror written by women and edited by Joyce Carol Oates. Both Oates and Margaret Atwood are contributors to the volume. I’ve always told myself I’m not a horror fan, but these are some really interesting stories. A couple were too horrific for me, but several stories totally knocked my socks off. A good read if you like women-centered fiction, horror, or well-written short stories generally. “A bold collection of horror stories that flies in the face of both gender and genre conventions” says Kirkus Reviews:
