Summary
 Deploying elements of mystery and shades of the macabre, M. G. Turner’s debut short story collection City of Dark Dreams: Tales from Another New York explores themes of life and death, asks whether mortality can be circumvented, imagines dreams impinging on reality, and finds the uncanny in the everyday. Melding the tales into a unified whole is the setting, the Upper West Side of Manhattan, as well as a fictional college, Hudson University, which features in many of the tales and introduces a dark academia motif. The many intriguing characters that populate this world, crisscross, intersect, interact, and influence each other’s lives, akin to the storytelling in David Lynch’s Twin Peaks.

In Turner’s alternate New York City, readers will encounter a locale replete with mad scientists, bizarre specters, demonic figures, and other horror elements that he makes his own. These stories comment on our times while bringing a flair of magical realism to the genre, rather than slasher horror which will be refreshing for readers, while still inducing frights.©2027 M.G.
