Item description from seller

THE BRAM STOKER-WINNING NIGHTMARE REBORN AS A MODERN FINE PRESS HORROR MASTERPIECE. A striking Suntup Editions production of Joyce Carol Oates's Zombie, the notorious psychological horror novel loosely inspired by the crimes of Jeffrey Dahmer. Issued as the finely crafted 'Artist Edition' and limited to 750 copies, this edition transforms Oates's disturbing first-person narrative into an immersive fine-press artifact through tactile design, haunting mixed-media illustrations by Laurel Hausler, and a new introduction written specially for this publication. Signed by illustrator Laurel Hausler on the limitation page, the volume reflects the modern revival of deluxe horror publishing, where literary fiction, macabre illustration, and collectible book arts converge. Long regarded as one of Oates's most unsettling works, Zombie remains a powerful exploration of obsession, violence, and fractured consciousness-made even more visceral here through Suntup's exceptional production standards and Hausler's deeply unsettling imagery. KEY FEATURES +++ Visuals: Six haunting mixed-media illustrations by Laurel Hausler, including a double-sided dust jacket featuring the artist's work. +++ Binding: Full cloth boards with a unique tactile texture; spine titled in silver. +++ Content: A chilling first-person account of a serial killer's psyche, presented as a series of journal entries. Includes a new introduction written specifically for this edition by Oates. +++ Associated Names: Signed by the artist Laurel Hausler on the limitation page. +++ Imprint: Published by Suntup Editions, renowned for high-production standards in the horror and suspense genres. +++ Specs: 9.75 inches tall / 168, [3] pages. Includes the laid-in publisher's bookmark. +++ Rarity: Limited to 750 copies; 'Artist Edition' (AE). Out of print at the publisher. CONDITION Fine / Fine -- An exceptional copy. Carefully handled; text is clean and crisp. Bindings are firm, tight, and square. The dust jacket is vibrant and without flaws. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - - Originally published in 1995, 'Zombie' is a masterclass in psychological horror, earning Oates the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement. Based loosely on the crimes of Jeffrey Dahmer, the novel remains one of the most unflinching explorations of human depravity in 20th-century literature. This Suntup Edition represents the modern 'Fine Press' revival within the horror genre. By commissioning new art and high-quality materials, Suntup elevates the 'Zombie' manuscript from a standard thriller to a collectible object of art. It serves as a bridge between high-literary fiction and the specialized world of macabre collectibles. SUBJECTS: Serial Killers, Psychological Horror, Fine Press, Laurel Hausler, Bram Stoker Award Winners, Literary Fiction, Mental Illness, Press Book, Limited Edition, Horror, Modern Firsts. Limited edition of 750 copies and Signed by the Artist.…
