So here we have all the strange and seemingly impossible dualities that make up real life——and pretty ugly it can be, as well as beautiful, hopeful, bleak, difficult, exhilarating. The sheer force of life that Gunn is able to load these stories up with is both testament to her unrivalled skill and an exercise in what she describes as 'reading and writing ugly', in order to pursue the deeper truths that lie at the heart of both the human imagination and human rationality.

A mother sat by her little child. She was so sad, so afraid he would die. The child's face was pallid. His little eyes were shut. His breath came faintly now, and then heavily as if he were sighing, and the mother looked more sadly at the dear little soul.

The Dilemmas of Working Women is Fumio Yamamoto’s darkly witty look at modern Japanese women who are ambivalent about their lives and jobs. In “Naked,” a woman who’s simultaneously lost her business and her husband finds that it is surprisingly comfortable to stay at home sewing stuffed animals, even if it makes her a “loser” in the eyes of society. In “Planarian,” a young woman recovering from breast cancer tells her friends and boyfriend that she would prefer to be the titular worm to organically regenerate her body.

In a quiet farmhouse, the ordinary folds into the unseen. A Jury of Her Peers turns a simple domestic scene into a mirror of justice, conscience, and the unspoken weight of women's lives. With spare, careful strokes, Susan Glaspell reveals how silence can testify and how understanding sometimes takes root where authority fails.

In this brief, haunting tale, Stephen Crane casts a quiet, unflinching gaze at innocence, cruelty, and the strange bargains we make in the name of love. Told in spare, evocative prose, A Dark Brown Dog is more than it appears — a fable with no moral, a friendship with no promise, a home with no safety.

Originally published as When the Women Came Out to Dance, Elmore Leonard’s extraordinary story collection, Fire in the Hole reconfirms his standing as the “King Daddy of crime writers” (Seattle Times)—a true Grand Master in the legendary company of John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, and James M. Cain. These nine riveting tales of crime and (sometimes) punishment—including the title story starring U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, which was the basis for the smash hit TV series Justified—feature all the elements that have made the great Elmore Leonard great.

An autobiographical novel in verse. What do you do when your dreams don’t pay the rent? Told through poetic snapshots, ROCKSTAR is the raw, restless journey of a young artist chasing purpose, connection, and a dream that won’t let go. From New York to Philly to LA, this is a mixtape of dead-end jobs, midnight studio sessions, and the holy delusion it takes to keep going. Told in fractured verse and fevered fragments, Kia Orion’s voice is sharp and tender, soaked in hip-hop, heartbreak, and homesickness. For anyone who’s ever risked it all to make something beautiful… This one’s for you.

Losing his parents in a train crash was bad enough, but having the bank seize their home, leaving him homeless in his final weeks of high school was almost more than Trace could bear. He got that diploma though, then headed to the Minneapolis, hoping to find work. Little did he know how difficult it would be for a young man with no job experience and no place to live. Instead of working, he finds himself foraging for food, sleeping in alleys, and doing his level best to simply survive. It isn’t the life he’d imagined for himself, but there is little he can do but take it day by day.

The tales collected in Julie Rogers's Seven Shorts can be compared to a wintry landscape: what lurks beneath is cloaked by deceptive beauty. They hold literary garments elegant and genteel, belying curves and forms patiently waiting at any moment to shock, or even enlighten. Cover your eyes, spin you a few times, and shove you into a room with . . . never mind.
