Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 340 pp. ; 26 cm. ; ISBN 9781958890097, 195889009X OCLC 1394892419 ; color pictorial stiff paper wrappers ; SIGNED by author on the title page ; What do invisible rats, aspiring rapists, axe-wielding gorillas, coffee shop ninjas and clown-faced kidnappers all have in common? They're just some of the shady miscreants and dubious heroes who populate the pages of the twisted tales making up Dave Lauby's rollicking short fiction collection The Big Day (and other stories). From the wimpy 13-year-old boy spurred on to criminal acts by his best friend from a Bizarro universe to the arctic survivalist whose sense of day and night (and pain and pleasure) become snow blinded and indistinguishable, the characters of Lauby's nine exuberant narratives pinball-collide themselves against tragedy and comedy and all the emotional bumpers in-between. Weaving in and out through a maze of twisting turns, unexpected jolts and surprise endings, TBD(aos) provides the reader with a well-balanced and intellectually nutritious nine-course story meal while tasting every bit like dessert with every bite. It's a guarantee that you'll want to come back for seconds. ; Contents: Gerry and Birdie -- Escape Plan -- Unstarted Story -- Take It -- The Wobbly Leg -- Rats in her House -- The Home Board -- Ticket to Heaven -- The Big Day ; Dave Lauby is a playwriht, novelist, actor, teacher and director with over 40 years of experience in th eprofessional theatre.
