"Natalie Pinter's new novella, A Wasp For A Fig, is a journey to a fairy world, both beautiful and dark. It's a wonderful nexus of fantasy, folk horror, and psyche."
- Jeffrey Ford, Author of Ahab's Return

"Brimming with folky fever-dream imagery, A Wasp For A Fig reads like a modernized blend of Arthur Machen and Angela Carter."
- C.F. Page, Author of Native Fear

"A Dionysian feast of folk horror with a fast-paced, classically-inflected spin on the genre touchstones. A Wasp For A Fig is a garden of unearthly delights and horrors, where you'll find a strange and all-consuming darkness at the heart of paradise. You'll devour this book!"
- Brian Asman, Author of Man, F*ck this House

Sylas wants to support his best friend, David, who has had a rough time since his sister tragically went missing a year ago. When David embarks on a trip down south to her last known whereabouts, Sylas, and their roommate Vishal, accompany him.

As the young men approach the place where her car was found, a wonderful scent lures them off the side of the road and into a lush garden where they encounter strange folk with violet eyes.

When they seek answers, both about the fate of David's sister, and the nature of this uncanny place, they discover the floral oasis harbors a gruesome secret that threatens all of their lives.
