Produktbeschreibung

Father Michael, a once-devout priest in New York City, is consumed by a forbidden craving-not for flesh, but for knowledge. His insatiable desire leads him to the mysterious and seductive Lily, a woman who offers him the ultimate truth of the cosmos. But as Michael delves into the dark secrets Lily reveals, his thirst for understanding spirals into a monstrous hunger that cannot be quenched. What begins as a quest for enlightenment soon becomes an obsession. Michael's body twists into a grotesque form, his mind unravels, and he descends into madness, devouring books in a desperate attempt to fill the endless void inside him. As his transformation deepens, those around him recoil in horror at the abomination he has become. In a final confrontation with Lily, Michael accuses her of leading him to ruin. Her cold reply-"I gave you what you wanted"-leaves him alone in his madness. Surrounded by the burning remnants of the knowledge he once craved, Michael realizes too late that his hunger will never end. Lust explores the terrifying consequences of unchecked obsession, where the pursuit of forbidden knowledge leads to self-destruction. A modern twist on cosmic horror, this novella serves as a chilling reminder that some desires, once awakened, can never be satisfied. Horror fans will be drawn to its psychological depth and the slow, inevitable descent into madness reminiscent of H.P. Lovecraft's most disturbing tales.
