Slice of Life - Paul Haines

Paul Haines sliced through the Australian writing scene with his twisted and murderous black humour in 2002. He has since won many awards and praise for his dark and surreal stories that make you think twice about his sanity and good taste.

Published here together for the first time are the Ditmar winning story "The Devil In Mr Pussy", the Aurealis Award shortlisted horror story "Doof Doof Doof" and the complete "Slice of Life" series of stories, including the previously unpublished "Slice of Life - A Spot of Liver" which also won the Aurealis Award 2009 for Best Horror Short Story.

HAINES' SLICE OF LIFE - seventeen glistening stories, sweating with twenty first century paranoia and anxiety from the decaying mind of the winner of the 2005 Ditmar for New Talent.

Awards:
* Nominated 2009 Chronos Award Best Collection
* Nominated 2009 Aurealis Award Best Collection
* "Slice Of Life - A Spot Of Liver" Winner 2009 Aurealis Award Best Horror Short Story
