the high-concept transgression of JG Ballard's Crash mixed with the dulcet tones of the gentlest George Saunders story

a little bernhard, a little aira. deeply smart and splenetic and silly. makes you want to read or write more.

excellent book. autumnally crisp prose. really evokes the eerie beauty of rural ny.

a book about god being so lonely he invents the world but can't help it. highly recommend for the carpenteresque prose, the weirdness, as well as the tenderness.

i have a story called "spanked before elvis" in the new Fence. it's about elvis, spanking, stamps, ritual, and fandom.
