About One Hand to Hold, One Hand to Carve: Two halves of a human cadaver awaken on a cold morgue slab. The two distinct personalities, Left and Right, remember nothing of their previous life as a singular body. Bound by necessity to carve out an existence on the fringes of society, the two brothers have very different ideas of the life they want. Their impending schism will lead each on his own frightening path; one forward to a new life, one backward to the origin of their struggle. One Hand to Hold, One Hand to Carve is a Weird and surreal Body Horror journey that redefines familial bonds and what it means to be an individual. "A haunting story that explores the blurred lines between the autonomous self and the intimate bonds of relationships. Distinctively revealed by a truly exceptional new voice, [this story] will have you questioning your own existence in new and provocative ways." - Ann VanderMeer, award-winning editor and anthologist "On the one hand, M. Shaw's One Hand to Hold, One Hand to Carve is a feverish, jaw-dropping nightmare. On the other hand, it's a touching meditation on identity and attachment. Both hands hold each other perfectly." -Nadia Bulkin, author of She Said Destroy “A bold, grotesque, and often oddly touching tale that pushes the edge of the Body Horror envelope. It's horror with a heart. Or hearts." - Andy Davidson, author of The Boatman's Daughter
