Book Overview

A group of tugboat passengers grapples with a disturbing loss. A record-holding hiccuper confronts his condition--and a troubling secret. A wife wonders what to do when her husband's head stops working--but his body stays alive. A man struggles with the memory of the time he saw his friend swallowed whole by a neighborhood girl with supernatural powers.


In this classic set of Midwestern Gothic stories by Darrin Doyle, we see the strange hold hands with the familiar--and seem all the more strange as a result. A set of tall tales (and medium-height ones) told with Nabokovian prose, this stunning and visceral collection by the author of The Beast in Aisle 34 will linger long after the last page.


Originally published in 2015, this revised tenth anniversary edition features a new introduction by American Mythology author Giano Cromley.
