Humor Short

This eclectic short story collection of dark stories is set both in modern times and in fictional locales. These tales are tinged with themes of revenge served cold as found in Snake In The Shadows, The Unpleasant Demise of Simon Stone and Day of Atonement. Threads of dark humor from A Vampire For Some Seasons offer some comic respite. Within the core of all these stories, lie more questions than answers about the depravity of the human condition, all of which should be addressed in the cool safety of the light of day.

If Saul Steinberg and Italo Calvino had adopted a child from a Romanian orphanage and raised him on Gary Larsen and Thomas Bernhard, he would still be nothing like Chuck Klosterman. They might be good company, though.
