Nightmares & Lullabies eBook

A first crush. A final regret. The end of the world. A dance with death. A glimpse beyond it.

Nightmares & Lullabies gathers more than a dozen stories by Ronald McGuire exploring love, identity, desire, loss, and transformation across the arc of a lifetime.

From literary fiction to satire, horror to speculative fiction, these stories inhabit the space between dream and nightmare, longing and acceptance, memory and mortality. Along the way, readers will encounter award-winning fiction, dystopian futures, dark humor, unexpected tenderness, and characters searching for connection in a world that rarely offers easy answers.

Fearless, unapologetic, and often morally ambiguous, Nightmares & Lullabies is a journey through the joys, sorrows, absurdities, and mysteries that make us human.
