Thea Hvistendahl reinterprets a very familiar genre. The blood, the slashing, the ravenous attacks, the horrific deaths, and the frenzied action give room to a slow-paced, dystopian drama. The undead are in a permanent catatonic state with little to no appetite for human flesh. A bizarre, scarcely explicated cosmic occurrence triggers the recently deceased loved ones to miraculously come alive. This unearthly turn-of-events manifests itself in a selection of personal stories.
