Insanity by Increments, Stories by Alaric Cabiling is a collection of nine short stories. Cabiling captures the tone and flavor of short story fiction in much the same way as others before him--Poe. The stories are psychologically on the fringe of manic, terror, horror and darkness.
Each story is skillfully written and takes on the ever present dark, depressing mood that Cabiling is protraying through the characters.
The Illusion of Progess. Saul, Dad and Mom. Mom leaves, Saul dies, Dad alone. Life ceases to mean anything.
Return to Desolation. Oliver, Dad and Mom. Abusive dad, divorce, remarriage, desertion. Oliver returns to the house where it all began and ended.
Insanity by Increments is the best short story book I have read!
