Story
Robert Coover has been playing by his own rules for more than half a century, earning the 1987 Rea Award for the Short Story as "a writer who has managed, willfully and even perversely, to remain his own man while offering his generous vision and versions of America." Coover finds inspiration in everything from painting, cinema, theater, and dance to slapstick, magic acts, puzzles, and riddles. His 1969 story, "The Babysitter," has alone inspired generations of innovative young writers. Here, in this selection of 30 of his best stories, you will find an invisible man tragically obsessed by an invisible woman.

Story
From the collection's title story, featuring a Halcom X1520 Relive Box that allows users to experience anew almost any moment from their past, to "The Five-Pound Burrito", the tale of a man aiming to build the biggest burrito in town, the 12 stories in this collection speak to the humor, the pathos, and the struggle that is part of being human while relishing the whimsy of wordplay and the power of a story well told. In stories that span a variety of styles and genres, Boyle addresses the enduring concerns of the human mind and heart while taking on timely social concerns.

Story
Endlich: Wassermusik als Komplettlesung! Boyle erzählt die weitgehend wahre Geschichte des schottischen Forschers Mungo Park, der Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts als erster Weißer den Verlauf des Niger erkundete und von seiner zweiten Reise nicht mehr zurückkam. Frei erfunden ist hingegen die Figur des Ned Rise, der mit dem spröden Briten die wildesten Abenteuer besteht. Den beiden Helden zugesellt ist ein phantastisches Panoptikum von Hexen und Schlägern, Kannibalen, Huren, Glücksrittern. Mit einem Wort: Boyle at his best!

Story
In the title story of this rich new collection, T.C. Boyle has created so vivid and original a retelling of the story of Victor, the feral boy who was captured running naked through the forests of Napoleonic France, that it becomes not just new, but definitive: yes, this is how it must have been. The tale is by turns magical and moving, a powerful investigation of what it means to be human. There is perhaps no one better than T. C. Boyle at engaging, shocking, and ultimately gratifying his readers.

Story
T. C. Boyle was first feted as a master of the short story for his critically acclaimed Greasy Lake. With these stories applauded by People magazine as "wickedly comical", he displays once again a virtuosity and versatility rare in literary America today. Without a Hero zooms in on American phenomena such as a center for the treatment of acquisitive disorders; a couple in search of the last toads on Earth; and a real estate wonder boy on a dude safari near convenient Bakerfield, California.

Story
This short story from the collection Wild Child was originally published in the New Yorker. Dámaso Funes is a medical miracle. He didn't make a sound when he was born, and as the years go by it's found that he doesn't feel pain. Not when he picks up hot coals with his bare hands or when he breaks his leg. To his father he is a sideshow freak, a spectacle from which he can make money, but to the village doctor who delivered him he is much more. He is a marvel, a wonder of genetics - the next step of human evolution.

Was passiert, wenn die Natur zurückbeißt? – Der neue Roman von T.C. Boyle. Der Countdown zur Apokalypse läuft: Kalifornien geht in Flammen auf, Überschwemmungen bedrohen Florida. "Der Planet stirbt, siehst du das nicht?", wirft Cooper seiner Mutter vor, die ihre Küche gehorsam auf frittierte Heuschrecken umstellt. Heftige Diskussionen gibt es auch mit Schwester Cat. Sie hat sich als Haustier eine Tigerpython namens Willie angeschafft, die sie sich wie ein glitzerndes Juwel um die Schultern hängt.

Story
It is at the end of the eighteenth century, in the new French Republic, when the savage is first seen outside the village of Lacaune. The boy quickly becomes a legend among the townsfolk. Is he truly a human child or a wild beast? "Wild Child" is based on the story of Victor of Aveyron, the feral child brought from the French wilderness to Paris in an attempt to civilize him. It is the story of a boy who, at the tender age of five, had his throat slit in the forest and was left for dead.
