In The Box Called Pleasure
(Fiction. By turns graphic, funny, and moving, thes urban ...)
Fiction. By turns graphic, funny, and moving, thes urban tales present characters who are teetering on the edge. Indifferent or absent lovers, drinking and smoking too much, loneliness, paranoia, a desire that is always fresh. In spite of the facts, rage, and obsession -- this is the macabre landscape of these unrestrained stories.
