“What do you believe in?” “What’s around me,” said Kim’s father instantly. “Not politics disguised as panaceas, not poets trying to be philosophers. This house. My job. Reality.” https://library.hrmtc.com/2026/05/13/what-do-you-believe-in-whats-around-me-said-kims-father-instantly-not-politics-disguised-as-panaceas-not-poets-trying-to-be-philosoph/ #aroundMe #believeIn #book #disguised #FantasyAnthologiesShortStories #HorrorCollectionsAnthologies #HorrorFictionClassics #house #job #panaceas #philosophers #poets #politics #quote #RamseyCampbell #reality #tryingToBe -
One of the great things about reading anthologies of horror fiction is spotting the bit in the story where the protagonist has a choice to make and makes the patently stupid one; in the case of a story I finished recently it was replying "Why yes of course" to some randomer saying "I see you are reading a book about witchcraft - would you like to come back to my place and take part in a real life magic ritual?"

Literally & metaphorically, the Sun is gaslighting us. We're in a relationship with a bi-polar Solar partner. It gives us light but also makes shadows. There's light we can't see! What's Sol hiding? We're told to fear the dark, but Night is when we rest! What to do, what to do..?
