Book by Reed Kit

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Called ""one of our brightest cultural commentators"" by Publishers Weekly, Kit Reed draws from life-with a difference. This new collection brings together thirty-four of her strong, original stories, from early classics like ""The Wait"" and ""Winter"" to six never-before-collected short stories, including ""The Legend of Troop 13"" and ""Wherein We Enter the Museum."" An early favorite, ""Automatic Tiger,"" is the first in a series of Reed's stories about animals. There's a monkey who grinds out bestsellers with the help of a ""creative writing"" app. Her uncanny black dog can enter a crowded room and sit down at the feet of the next man to die. Her characters confront war in various arenas: mother/daughter battles, the war of the sexes, the struggles of men scarred by war. Kit Reed's self-described ""transgenred"" fiction is confirmation of an ""extraordinary talent"" (The Financial Times). The range and complexity of her work speaks for itself in The Story Until Now.
