Description

The five short stories and two novellas in A VAUDEVILLE OF DEVILS are loosely based around the seven deadly sins. In 'The Demons Tormenting Unsturmfuhrer Hans Otto Graebner' an SS officer is made aware of mortality and morality by a degenerate artist. With 'The Dinner Party' Girardi gives us his own rich and peculiar version of hell on earth. 'Three Ravens on a Red Ground' portrays an American businessman faced with a Japanese takeover, comparing both cultures' version of honour. These seven moral tales will delight anyone who has read Girardi's previous novels.
