Should a pair of trousers get to decide their owner's fate? Should suicide be a lucrative side hustle and/or career aspiration? And how much do we really need to know about the sex lives of the dead? In Love Is a Poisonous Color, the fourth collection of short fiction from novelist and theorist Marshall Moore, whimsy, horror, and lunacy abound. It is a book that asks us to consider what really happens when we die? What really happens when we are alive? And in the end, how much does any of it matter? Marshall Moore is the author of four novels (Inhospitable, Bitter Orange, An Ideal for Living, and The Concrete Sky) and three short-fiction collections (A Garden Fed by Lightning, The Infernal Republic, and Black Shapes in a Darkened Room). His work has appeared in The Southern Review, Litro, Storgy, Passengers Journal, Quarterly Literary Review Singapore, Asia Literary Review, The Barcelona Review, and many other journals and anthologies. He is also the co-editor of three academic books on the pedagogy of creative writing and publishing. He holds a PhD in creative writing from Aberystwyth University. A native of eastern North Carolina, he lives in Cornwall, England, and teaches creative writing and publishing at Falmouth University.
