Summary, Etc. "What if the lens we use to see monsters is the lens we're using to see ourselves? Willie Edward Talor Carver Jr. points that question directly at the most Appalachian and queer of cryptids -- Mothman -- a creature born of night and dread, now caught in the everyday light of HR meetings, motel rooms, and Mamaw's kitchen. With an unflinching eye on the blue-collar, the spiritual, the erotic, and the rural, Carver shapes these pages into a mirror until the monste we created looks back"-- Backcover.
