Hardback. Condition: Good. "[A] bizarre and endearing debut . . . We can't remember the last time we met a character this singular or read a book this funny."--Oprah Daily (Best New Books to Read This Spring) "Sleek and darkly comical . . . with the melancholic wit and whimsy of Miranda July."--The Boston Globe Cross the jet bridge with Linda, a frequent flyer with an unusual obsession, in this "audaciously imagined and surprisingly tender" (Rachel Yoder, author of Nightbitch) debut novel by the acclaimed author of Out There. FINALIST FOR THE CALIFORNIA BOOK AWARD * LONGLISTED FOR THE CENTER FOR FICTION FIRST NOVEL PRIZE AND THE VCU CABELL FIRST NOVELIST AWARD A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Time, Oprah Daily, Vulture, Publishers Weekly, Electric Lit, Debutiful, Book Riot, The Skinny Linda is doing her best to lead a life that would appear normal to the casual observer. Weekdays, she earns $20 an hour moderating comments for a video-sharing platform, then rides the bus home to the windowless garage she rents on the outskirts of San Francisco. But on the last Friday of each month, she indulges her true passion, taking BART to SFO for a round-trip flight to a regional hub. The destination is irrelevant, because each trip means a new date with a handsome stranger--a stranger whose intelligent windscreens, sleek fuselages, and powerful engines make Linda feel a way that no human ever could. . . . Linda knows that she can't tell anyone she's sexually obsessed with planes. Nor can she reveal her belief that it's her destiny to "marry" one of her suitors, uniting with her soulmate plane for eternity. But when an opportunity arises to hasten her dream of eternal partnership, and the carefully balanced elements of her life begin to spin out of control, she must choose between maintaining the trappings of normalcy and launching herself headlong toward the love she's always dreamed of. Both subversive and unexpectedly heartwarming, Sky Daddy hijacks the classic love story, exploring desire, fate, and the longing to be accepted for who we truly are.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A thrilling new voice in fiction injects the absurd into the everyday to present a startling vision of modern life, [as] if Kafka and Camus and Bradbury were penning episodes of Black Mirror (Chang-Rae Lee, author of My Year Abroad).Stories so sharp and ingenious you may cut yourself on them while reading.Kelly Link, author of Get In TroubleFINALIST FOR THE CALIFORNIA BOOK AWARD ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: Chicago Review of Books, Kirkus ReviewsWith a focus on the weird and eerie forces that lurk beneath the surface of ordinary experience, Kate Folks debut collection is perfectly pitched to the madness of our current moment. A medical ward for a mysterious bone-melting disorder is the setting of a perilous love triangle. A curtain of void obliterates the globe at a steady pace, forcing Earths remaining inhabitants to decide with whom they want to spend eternity. A man fleeing personal scandal enters a codependent relationship with a house that requires a particularly demanding level of care. And in the title story, originally published in The New Yorker, a woman in San Francisco uses dating apps to find a partner despite the threat posed by blots, preternaturally handsome artificial men dispatched by Russian hackers to steal data. Meanwhile, in a poignant companion piece, a woman and a blot forge a genuine, albeit doomed, connection. Prescient and wildly imaginative, Out There depicts an uncanny landscape that holds a mirror to our subconscious fears and desires. Each story beats with its own fierce heart, and together they herald an exciting new arrival in the tradition of speculative literary fiction.
