Description

From the author of the “urgent and heartfelt” (San Francisco Chronicle) novel The Companions, a genre-bending collection of interconnected short stories in the tradition of Jennifer Egan and Karen Russell.

An angry mother turns into a literal monster. A company in San Francisco can scrub your entire reputation and create a new one…for a price. A failed actor on a reality show turns into an unlikely world savior. And much more.

Through each of these twelve interconnected stories, people, places, and even realities are masterfully blended. “Funny, tender, and compulsively readable, Katie Flynn’s warmhearted collection is an absolute gem, with an enormous generosity of spirit and keen wit on display in every line” (Maryse Meijer, author of Rag).
