The Premature Burial

Work:: The Premature Burial (S0164328800)

A perversely pleasurable story of romance gone wrong. Two lonely-hearts are brought closer by mysterious packages and an unforgettable picnic, while Troy the melancholy hamster unwittingly goes for a final spin on his wheel. All alone in the middle of a big city, in a room piled high with dog-eared books and dead Venus flytraps, a man spends his days building death-defying contraptions. Obsessed by Edgar Allan Poe's stories of premature burial, he lives in mounting terror of being buried alive. When his waking hours become a living nightmare, he resorts to increasingly desperate measures in his battle against a fate worse than death. Cremation never sounded so good...
