When archivist Sol meets Elsie, the larger-than-life widow of a moderately famous television writer who’s come to donate her wife’s papers, there’s an instant spark. But Sol has a secret: He suffers from an illness called vampirism, and hides from the sun by living in his basement office. On their way to falling in love, the two traverse grief, delve into the Internet fandom they once unknowingly shared, and navigate the realities of anti-trans discrimination and the stigmas of carrying the “vampire disease.” Then, when strange things start happening at the archive, Sol must embrace even more of the unknown to save himself and his job. ‘Dead Collections’ is a wry novel full of heart and empathy that celebrates the journey, the difficulties and joys, in finding love and comfort within our own bodies. ‘Dead Collections’ is now in stock here at Littered With Books!
