First edition, Hardcover, Limited, New sans dust jacket as issued,
38 pp.


This edition limited to 84 numbered copies. “With a development similar to the narratives of a European art film, The Malaise Trap, by Andrew Hook, provides us with a glimpse of the protagonist's routine, immersed in her project to find insects images for a photographic exhibition. Pierced by moments of existential crisis and ambiguous narrations, the tale slowly unfolds in a growing tension, whose strangeness oscillates between the terror of obsession and the supernatural, in an ending as surprising as it is brutal.” #71067
