From the up-and-coming young American writer who has contributed to McSweeney's and written for the New Yorker comes a masterful collection of short stories that has already received rave reviews from many of the most prominent writers working today. Some of the stories are comic masterpieces, some embody as dark a vision of the universe as you are likely to encounter, and all of them showcase a writer grappling with the great questions of modern life.

Narrated by Mark Bramhall, Kirbey Heyborne, Lincoln Hoppe, Arthur Morey, Lorna Raver, John Rubenstein and Fred Sanders
