Publisher's Synopsis

Reality, as defined by Paul Philip Abrigo and Joakim Hagström, is only the sum of many veils, fragile illusions woven by discreet things in worlds that exist beyond this one. Worlds that begin when you fall asleep, thrive behind your back and dance in-between your breaths. Hazy realities only cats, children, true dreamers, moths, and butterflies may understand. Places where darkness, light, fear, love, death, hope, and intention blend into one gray dusk. Where unreal entities live beyond right and wrong. Now and then, the veils are strained, twisted, and torn, and sometimes they burst, and the waking world we are so hopelessly attached to gets blurred with the worlds that hide beyond the veils.

The young pacifist AVERY suddenly finds a hunger for killing, which takes her on a murderous journey far away from home. Strange, human-like things walk out of the WALLS of the lonely life of a disillusioned man. A sleepy middle-class suburb is invaded by otherworldly M O T H S. A woman in grief deeply regrets disobeying her girlfriend's last will. As a young family gets lost in a deep, dark, and damp forest, they learn THE DANGERS OF CHANTERELLE HUNTING.

Welcome to the unveiling.

VEILS WOVEN IN SILENCE is an illustrated collection of strange short stories and poems, written by PAUL PHILIP ABRIGO, illustrated by JOAKIM HAGSTRÖM. For lovers of magic realism, urban fantasy, and horror.
