A man wakes to find his arm has detached and crawled downstairs…
The Paradox Manifestation Department saves a baby from a crocodile…
A mechanic dreams of fame and fortune while working on a car infested with tiny clowns…
"A collection of 29 character-driven works of flash fiction . . . some, despite their brevity, manage to tap into deep fears. . . . shows that a lot can be done with a very limited word count." - Kirkus Reviews
In these stories, Zachary Dillon exercises (and exorcises) his penchant for the dark and absurd. His writing feels like what you'd get if Kafka listened to Talking Heads, or if Shirley Jackson tried LSD.
But each of the titular "people with problems" has a beating heart, and many of their stories slip effortlessly from surrealism into heartbreak or quiet awe.
Featuring 15 color illustrations by artists as eclectic as the stories themselves.
