Short stories from an author with "a roomy imagination, big appetite for the absurd, healthy sense of humor, [and] heightened sense for the telling detail" (Telegraph-Journal)

Shortlisted for the ReLit Award -- Short Fiction

The elderly take to the streets at night for illegal and cathartic electric scooter racing. A copy editor suffers brain damage from West Nile virus and is suddenly filled with cannibalistic violence and award-winning minimalist poetry. Mayor McCheese visits a sexually repressed British couple in the early 1970s and touches their lives forever. A Texas doctor transplants the mind of a meth-addicted convict into the body of a suburban web developer.

Startlingly original, marked by vivid characters and a rich pop-culture sensibility, the short fiction in Ronald Reagan, My Father offer a bleakly hilarious vision that's both human and uncanny.
