Synopsis

"Thought provoking and clever."  The London Magazine, on Shitstorm

"This is a book written with a propulsive sense of pace, a thrilling immediacy, and excellent comic timing. It is also a book that feels very, very much like now."  The Quietus, on Shitstorm

"...an author who is a sharp observer and fearless explorer."  Gabino Iglesias, PANK Magazine

Nine stories. Nine ways of not being at home. Nine confrontations to the limits of fiction and memoir. Jolts is a playful and honest exploration of the joys and sorrows of lives lived in-between places. A collection that travels across time, space, and language, in order to deliver the gospel of the Latin American short story.

Sdrigotti rises to peak form with Jolts, following a series of cult publications - Shitstorm, Dysfunctional Males and Triptico. With this book he joins the likes of Eley Williams and Clare Fisher as another special Influx Press short story writer.
