Dead Relatives

A collection of short stories that ranges  from weird to horror to gothic to speculative fiction. 
I really loved this collection. The author has a sharp and evocative writing that instantly captures the dark and strange atmosphere present in her stories.  The titular story is the longest of the book and really sets the tone. It's very gothic and eerie, reminiscent of authors like Shirley Jackson.  Other stories also dealt with dark, disturbing, sometimes supernatural themes in a shorter form, each time the author did a great job at constructing an interesting narrative with a distinct mood and voice.  Her protagonists are all compelling in their way, including several unhinged female characters. 
My favourite stories were : Dead Relatives, Jutland, The Pickling Jar, Resting Bitch Face, The Puckering, The Devil of Timanfaya, The birds of Nagasaki
