Incredible Short Stories!

I couldn’t not recommend this book more, it’s an interesting study on a contemporary short story literature!

Awesome

Really good stuff, if u can handle it. A nice compliment to Blindboy’s podcast with little elements of the show creeping into the work. Highly recommended.

Narrative Soundscapes

The accompanying score makes this unlike any audiobook I've listened to before. It really explores the possibilities of the medium, and the stories themselves are brilliant. Read magnificently by the author.
10/10 would listen again...

Wildly Imaginative and Startlingly Profound

The collection showcases laughter, fear, rage, dread, and love in ways I've never seen before. Blindboy Boatclub's cadence and delivery is spot on, as well. I highly recommend it.
