About this title

Synopsis

SYNOPSIS A grieving man travels through time via car crash. A family of matriarchs collects recipes for the dead. A woman gains an unexpected child in the midst of a bunny apocalypse. An outcast finds work in a magical slaughterhouse. Julie C. Day's debut collection is rife with dark and twisted tales made beautiful by her gorgeous prose and wonderfully idiosyncratic imagination. Melding aspects of Southern Gothic and fabulism, and utilizing the author s own scientific background, Day's carefully rendered settings are both delightful and unexpected. Whether set in a uniquely altered version of Florida's Space Coast or a haunted island off the coast of Maine, each story in this collection carries its own brand of meticulous and captivating weirdness. Yet in the end, it is the desperation of the characters that drives these stories forward and their wild obsessions that carry them through to the end. It is Day's clear-eyed compassion for the dark recesses of the human heart and her dream-like vision of the physical world that make this collection a standout.
