A girl and her twin brother watch a storm from the living room of an
empty house while a sense of apprehension overtakes them. As the twins
move through the house, it becomes an archetypal space from which a
series of horrific actions unspool, leading to a sense of overwhelming
dread that consumes them both. Focused on a murder and a series of
events that both follow and precede it, “Come Down To Us” — written in
Mark Gluth’s characteristically unmistakable voice — is a labyrinthine,
dream-like world in which motifs recur, fluctuate, and vanish within
cycles of overlapping narratives.
“A meticulous little masterwork at once topographically detailed
and as privy as a hallway bleared by smoke machines. A novel where
every slightest movement counts and every word hinges on the next word
and every syllable matters like a lit firecracker.” – DENNIS COOPER
