21 stellar examples of new American short fiction. "The authors brazenly embrace intimacy and repulsion with alluring ease. Daring is the best description of the collection; engaging is the best reason for them to be read and shared." —nuvo. net , February 2, 2006 “The scientist has the habit of science; the artist, the habit of art.” —Flannery O’Connor
