Boy of Bone
Twelve Stories Inspired by the Mutter Museum







Author K. R. Sands created a collection of short fiction inspired by the displays of pathological human anatomy and other medical oddities at the famous Mütter Museum of the College of Physicians of Philadelphia. The stories are beautiful and haunting as they explore the dark depths of human emotion.
