Ever heard of a culling song? It.s a lullaby sung in Africa to give
a painless death to the old or infirm. The lyrics of a culling song
kill, whether spoken or even just thought. You can find one on page 27
of Poems and Rhymes from Around the World, an anthology that is sitting
on the shelves of libraries across the country, waiting to be picked up
by unsuspecting readers.

Reporter Carl Streator discovers the song.s lethal nature while
researching Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, and before he knows it, he.s
reciting the poem to anyone who bothers him. As the body count rises,
Streator glimpses the potential catastrophe if someone truly malicious
finds out about the song. The only answer is to find and destroy every
copy of the book in the country. Accompanied by a shady real-estate
agent, her Wiccan assistant, and the assistant.s truly annoying
ecoterrorist boyfriend, Streator begins a desperate cross-country quest
to put the culling song to rest.

Written with a style and imagination that could only come from Chuck
Palahniuk, Lullaby is the latest outrage from one of our most exciting
writers at work today.
