A debut short story collection in the tradition of writers like Kelly Link, Aimee Bender, and George Saunders--strange, imaginative, and refreshingly original--now back in print as part of Ecco's "Art of the Story" Series, and with a new introduction from the author


Kevin Wilson's characters inhabit a world that moves seamlessly between the real and the imagined, the mundane and the fantastic. "Grand Stand-In" is narrated by an employee of the Nuclear Family Supplemental Provider--a company that supplies "stand-ins" for families with deceased, ill, or just plain mean grandparents. And in "Blowing Up On the Spot," a story singled out by Ann Patchett for Ploughshares, a young woman works sorting tiles at a Scrabble factory after her parents have spontaneously combusted.

Southern gothic at its best, laced with humor and pathos, these wonderfully inventive stories explore the relationship between loss and death and the many ways we try to cope with both.

Fantastic Fiber Supplement!
Size: 1.86 Pound (Pack of 1)
I've been using Metamucil Daily Fiber + Collagen for a few weeks now, and I'm genuinely impressed. The orange flavor is pleasant and not too overpowering, making it easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I love that it's sugar-free and sweetened with stevia, which fits perfectly with my dietary preferences. The 3-in-1 fiber formula, combined with collagen, is a great bonus for my digestive health and overall well-being. Since starting this, I've noticed a significant improvement in my digestion and feel more energetic. Highly recommend for anyone looking to boost their fiber intake with a tasty, effective supplement!
