CHOCOLATE PARK is the debut chapbook from up and coming writer, Chesya Burke, and it reminds us of something we read horror to that true horror exists all around us. Let's face it, the usual model of a horror novel or story is to have horror intrude upon the ordinary. You're sitting around in your middle class life, minding your own business, when suddenly, this "other" barges in from the outside. With CHOCOLATE PARK, the horror lies as close as what CNN or your local news refuses to cover. Poverty, drugs, (mis) education all play into the cycle of horror that exists in those areas of towns that "decent folk" don't go to. — Maurice Broaddus, author of King Maker
